Our overall policy is to use our best efforts to respect the privacy of all of our on-line guests. Our web server recognizes and records certain non-personal information about visitors; specifically, this information consists only of the type of browser used (e.g., Netscape Navigator, Internet Explorer) and the domain name of the visitor’s Internet service provider (e.g., America On Line, CompuServe). This information is used only for internal review purposes such as tracking the total number of visitors to our site on an aggregate, non-personally identifiable information basis. We do not access any personally identifiable facts in this process. We do not require you or your children to register or provide information in order to view our sites.
We do not collect personal information from visitors to our site unless it is provided to us voluntarily and knowingly. We specifically request children to obtain their parents' permission before providing such information. We do not and will not use your child’s e-mail address for any purpose other than responding to the message your child has sent.
Occasionally, we sponsor educational contests for children on our website. In order to enter, the child is required to provide an e-mail or mailing address. This personal information is used solely to enable us to notify the contest winners.
The Produce for Better Health Foundation does not give or sell to anyone any information we may collect at our site.
This 5 A Day site is not linked to other web sites except for the National Cancer Institute and other strictly reviewed 5 A Day websites. We do not allow sponsored ads or banners for any company on our site and only members of the Produce for Better Health Foundation are allowed to have a text link on our site. The links are provided for visitors who want more information about the national 5 A Day program, about healthy and nutritious eating, or about our company.
The Produce for Better Health Foundation website is directed primarily to children, families, health professionals, and educators. We are concerned about personal privacy and is committed to protecting the privacy of children who visit our site. The site is designed to promote awareness of the health benefits associated with increased consumption of fruits and vegetables in conjunction with the national 5 A Day program.
Our website offers visitors the opportunity to purchase educational materials. These purchase opportunities are not included in the section of the website directed to children. Children who access these pages are encouraged to obtain their parent’s permission before disclosing any personal information or making a purchase decision. Parents are referred to this Privacy Policy.
We encourage children to consult with parents before furnishing any personal information and we incorporate special notices urging children to obtain parental permission on those pages of our site where children have an opportunity to provide an e-mail address. We strongly recommend parents supervise their children’s Internet activities and consider using parental control tools available from on-line services and software.
