Privacy
Statement
General
Reckitt Benckiser Ireland Limited
and its affiliated companies (“Reckitt Benckiser”) respects
the privacy of every individual who visits our sites or responds to our
interactive advertisements and other communications. This Privacy Statement
outlines the information Reckitt Benckiser will collect and how we will use
that information. This Statement will also instruct you on what to do if you do
not want your personal information collected or shared when you visit Reckitt
Benckiser sites or respond to our advertisements and other communications.
We may modify this Privacy Statement and you should therefore periodically visit this page to be sure that you have read and agree with our most current privacy statement.
Personally
Identifiable Information
Reckitt Benckiser will not collect any personally identifiable information
about you (that is, your name, address, telephone number, or email address)
unless you provide it to us voluntarily.
When you
provide personally identifiable information to us, we may ask if you want to
receive future communications from us, such as newsletters, email or other
information. We may also ask if we can
permit selected third parties to use your data to provide you with information
about goods or services which may be of interest to you. You can choose not to receive these
communications or to permit third parties to use your data, if you wish.
If you do not want your personally identifiable information collected, please
do not submit it to us. If you have already submitted this information and
would like us to remove it from our records, please please visit the "contact us"
page on the brand web site.
Personal information collected on
the site may be stored or processed in your country of residence or any other
country in which Reckitt Benckiser or its subcontractors or agents maintain
facilities and by using the site, you consent to any transfer of information
outside your country of residence.
Reckitt Benckiser will ensure that if information is transferred outside
your country of residence it will be treated in accordance with applicable date
protection laws.
Unfortunately the transmission of
information via the internet is not completely secure. Although we will do our best to protect your
personally identifiable information, we cannot guarantee the security of your
personally identifiable information transmitted to our site and transmission is
at your own risk. Once we have received
your information, we will use strict procedures and security features to try to
prevent unauthorised access.
In addition to providing you with
the service or information you request, your personally identifiable
information may also be used to help us track the way you use our site and our
products. We may also combine the information you provide with information that
we collect separately, including information you have provided to other
organisations (with consent that it can be shared) as well as public
information. All of this information
will help us, for example, better design our products,
web sites and advertisements. In order to do this, we may also share your
information with companies who carry out work for us. These companies have
agreed to only use your information in the way we tell them and to have
procedures in place to protect the information.
If we share your information with
a company, other than as set out above, we will contact you first and give you
the opportunity to remove your information from our database unless you have
already given your consent to this.
We will retain your information
for a reasonable period or as long as the law requires.
Children
Reckitt Benckiser has no intention of collecting any personally identifiable
information (that is, name, address, telephone number, or email address) from
individuals under the age of eighteen years.
If a child has provided us with personally identifiable information, a
parent or guardian of that child should contact us please visit the "contact us" page on the brand web site to
have this information deleted from our records.
Non-Personally Identifiable Information
Collected Automatically
In some cases, we may collect information about you that is not personally
identifiable. Examples of this type of information include the type of Internet
Browser you are using, the type of computer operating system you are using, and
the domain name of the site from which you linked to our site or advertisement.
We use this information for the purposes of better understanding our customers’
interests and to help improve our business and sites.
Information We May Place Automatically
On Your Computer's Hard Drive
When you view one of our sites or advertisements, we may store some information
on your computer. For example, this
