Important Note Regarding U.S. Law
By using our web sites, you signify that you agree with the terms of our
current Privacy Policy as posted on our sites as well as the terms of
our Terms and Conditions. If you do not agree with any term in this Policy
or our Terms and Conditions, please
do not use this site or provide any Personal Information to us.
As used in this Privacy Policy, "Personal Information" means any information
that is linked to your identity such as your name, street address, telephone
number, screen name, age and/or email address.
The site you entered may collect some or all of these types of Personal
Information through a sweepstakes, contest, game, survey, questionnaire
or promotion, or a registration form. Some of our web sites may require
registration and disclosure of particular information such as street address
in order for you to participate in sweepstakes, games or other activities.
In order to register on our sites, we require you to disclose your name,
zip code, email address, birth date and gender. Pepsi will not collect
any Personal Information from your visits to our sites unless you provide
your Personal Information to us voluntarily, and we will not require you
to provide more information than is necessary to participate in our web
sites' activities. We also do not collect financial or other sensitive
data information about our users.
When you provide us with Personal Information, you are authorizing us
to use that information in accordance with the terms of this Privacy Policy,
which includes your right to limit our use of your Personal Information
as described in this Policy.
The web site you entered may also collect Personal Information from you
about a third party (e.g., the site might allow you to send an email or
message to a friend, in which case we will need that person's name and
email address). Please note that we use such information only for the
specified purpose (e.g., to deliver the email message) and we will not
contact the third party again by email unless and until the third party
contacts us or provides permission to do so.
When you supply Personal Information at a Pepsi web site, we will consolidate
such Personal Information and use it for the purpose for which it was
collected (e.g., to enter you in a sweepstakes or to fulfill the delivery
of a sweepstakes prize or product order) in accordance with the terms
of this Privacy Policy. We may also use it to contact you regarding Pepsi's
products or promotions as well as other products and services, which may
be requested by or otherwise of interest to you (including those we may
offer jointly with other companies). At any time, however, you may opt
out of such future contact by unsubscribing from our database. We also
use Personal Information to keep track of a user's activities on our sites,
to improve our marketing and promotional efforts, to statistically analyze
web site usage, to improve our web site features, design and content and
to refine our marketing strategies.
We may also enhance your Personal Information by linking it to data obtained
from third parties, such as non-personally identifiable information (e.g.,
demographic and geographic characteristics) as well as other publicly
available data such as census information. Such enhanced information allows
us to provide our users with a more customized experience.
Pepsi's primary goal in collecting and using Personal Information is to
give you a meaningful and customized experience while you are using our
web sites as well as to promote our products in a cost effective and efficient
manner.
You may have heard of "cookies," which are small files or pieces of information
that are stored by your browser on your computer's hard drive when you
visit a web site. The use of cookies is an industry standard and you will
find them at most web sites. Pepsi may use cookies to collect other information
during your visit to our web sites, such as the particular site areas
you visit and the activities in which you participate at our web sites.
Pepsi does not automatically collect any Personal Information, but we
may combine non-personal information collected automatically (through
cookies) with voluntarily submitted Personal Information. Such link may
occur only if you provide Pepsi with Personal Information on our sites.
This practice allows Pepsi to keep track of items such as sweepstakes
participation, email and advertising interaction levels, survey responses,
online coupon redemption and other web activity in order to better tailor
our web sites and our products to your interests and needs. Cookies may
also be used to help speed up your future activities at our web sites
-- the computer can remember that you have already provided Personal Information
to us and not request that you provide any a second time.
Anonymous information about your computer, such as your IP address (a
number assigned to your computer whenever you surf the Internet), the
type of Internet browser you are using, and the type of computer operating
system you are using may also be collected by us using cookies. Web servers,
the computers that "serve up" web pages, automatically identify your computer
by its IP address. When you request a page from this web site, our servers
log your IP address.
Most browsers are initially set to accept cookies. If you'd prefer, you
can set yours to refuse cookies or to alert you when cookies are being
sent. Refusal of cookies at the site you entered may result in an inability
to visit certain areas of the web sites or to receive personalized information
when you visit the web sites.
In the course of doing business, we employ other companies to perform
a variety of functions on our behalf. For example, at times we may retain
third parties to analyze, update and correct data we collect on our web
sites, including Personal Information, to help us improve our products,
our database and our web sites. In addition, we may share Personal Information
with agents, suppliers, fulfillment houses and other third parties to
allow delivery of prizes, information, products or services. These suppliers
and other third parties may have access to your Personal Information if
it is needed to perform their functions for Pepsi, but they are not authorized
by us to use your Personal Information in any way other than the intended
use.
We also may share aggregate, non-personally identifiable information about
our users with advertisers, business partners, sponsors, and other third
parties. For example, we may tell a business partner the number of men
and the number of women that entered a contest, but we do not disclose
Personal Information about such contestants in violation of this Privacy
Policy.
Except as stated in this Privacy Policy, we do not sell, transfer or disclose
your Personal Information without your prior consent. Our intention is
limit or prohibit the sharing of Personal Information provided to us in
ways that are different than the ways described above without also providing
you with an opportunity to "unsubscribe" or prohibit such unrelated uses.
We may also release your Personal Information if required to do so by
law, or by search warrant, subpoena or court order, or to a third party
to which ownership of Pepsi is transferred via an acquisition, merger,
sale of assets or otherwise.
