By interacting with Sodexo through our websites and mobile applications, you consent to the use of information that is collected or submitted as described in this privacy policy. We may make changes or add to this Privacy Statement, so we encourage you to review it periodically.

We may combine any of the information collected about you for the purposes described in this Privacy Statement.
Sodexo does not support Do Not Track browser settings and does not currently participate in any Do Not Track frameworks that would allow any of our sites to respond to signals or other mechanisms from you regarding the collection of your personal information. However, our sites do not track any personally identifiable information on our sites unless you intentionally provide it to us (such as when you create an account, request customer service or make a purchase).
Personally identifiable information is information that allows you to be identified or contacted individually. We may collect personally identifiable information you provide when you submit feedback, send us an email or otherwise contact us through the Site.

We also use personal information about you to communicate with you about the Site, transactions with you, and additional products and services you may find of value. To do all of this, we combine personal and non-personal information, collected online and offline, including information from third party sources.
We may disclose personal information about you to any of our affiliated companies for the purposes described above. We may also disclose certain information about orders placed through this site to the establishment that has contracted with Sodexo to offer this online ordering service to you. Sodexo and its affiliated companies will not disclose personal information covered by this Privacy Statement to others except to provide products or services you’ve requested, or to third-party vendors who assist us by providing services related to your use of the Site and Sodexo’s business. We may also aggregate general statistics that we gather about visitors, sales, traffic patterns, and services and provide these statistics to third parties; however, when we do, these statistics will not include any personal information that identifies individuals.
Our websites and mobile services are intended for a general audience and are not directed to children under the age of 13. Please contact us if you believe that we may have collected information from your child and we will work to delete it.
Sodexo may disclose personal information about you as required by law. In addition, Sodexo may disclose personal information about you in the unlikely event Sodexo deems release necessary to protect Sodexo legal rights or to protect the personal safety of users of the Site or members of the public.
In the event that all or a portion of Sodexo, or substantially all the assets of Sodexo, is sold to another business entity, personally identifiable information collected from the Site will likely be among the assets transferred to such business entity.
Sodexo may make anonymous your personal information by cleansing it of any information which might allow you to be identified or contacted, and combine this non-personal information with that of other visitors to the Site. Sodexo may use this non-personal information for internal business purposes, such as analysis and planning by Sodexo’s marketing and customer service departments. We may also sell or otherwise disclose information that we have made anonymous to third parties including business partners and others.
In addition, when you visit the Site, as with many other Web sites, certain information is automatically logged about your visit. This information may include your computer’s Internet protocol (IP) address, which is the number assigned to your computer whenever it is connected to the Internet, your operating system, screen settings, Web browser software, and referring Web site. Sodexo may use this data for the purposes described above under “Use and Disclosure of Information.” Sodexo may make anonymous this information, as well; in which event, Sodexo may use or disclose the information as described above for other anonymous information.
A cookie is a small text file that is placed on your hard disk by a Web page server. Cookies contain information that can later be read by a Web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you. The Site may use cookies to store your preferences and other information on your computer for security purposes and in order to save you time by eliminating the need repeatedly to enter the same information and to display your personalized content and appropriate advertising on your later visits to the Site. When you visit our Site, we do not collect (or grant permission to third parties to collect) personally identifiable information about your online activities over time and across different web sites or online services.
In addition to the information described above, we and our third-party service providers may collect additional information when you utilize any of our mobile applications, including the type of mobile device you use, the temporary or persistent unique device identifiers (sometimes called UDID), the IP address of your mobile device, your mobile operating system, the type of mobile Internet browsers you use, and information about the way you use our mobile applications.
We seek to keep your Personal Information secure and implement reasonable technical, administrative, and physical safeguards to help us protect such information from unauthorized access, use, and disclosure. When we collect or transmit sensitive information, we use industry standard methods to protect that information. We also request that our third-party service providers use commercially reasonable security measures to protect your information from unauthorized access or use. However, no method of electronically transmitting or storing data is ever completely secure, and therefore, we cannot guarantee that your information will never be accessed, used, or disclosed in a manner that is inconsistent with this Privacy Statement.
