Privacy Statement
General
Reckitt Benckiser (UK) 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 communication from us, such as newsletters, email or other information.
You can choose not to receive this communication, 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 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.
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
minors. Where appropriate, Reckitt Benckiser will specifically instruct minors not to submit such information. If a minor
has provided us with personally identifiable information, a parent or guardian
of that minor should visit the "contact
us" page on the brand web site if they would like 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 information may be in the form of a
"Cookie" or similar file that will allow us to tailor a site or
advertisement to better match your interests and preferences. With most
Internet Browsers, you can erase Cookies from your computer hard drive, block
all Cookies, or receive a warning before a Cookie is stored. Please refer to
