Privacy Policy

Welcome!

Thank you for visiting a Nestlé Ice Cream web site. This privacy policy tells you how Nestlé Ice Cream uses personal information collected at this web site. Please read this privacy policy before submitting any personal information at this site. By using this site, you are accepting the practices described in this privacy policy. We may, infrequently, change these practices, but any changes will be posted and changes will only apply to activities and information on a going forward, not retroactive basis. You are encouraged to review the privacy policy whenever you visit to make sure that you understand how any personal information you provide will be used.

The privacy practices set forth in this Privacy Policy pertain only to the on-line collection of information.

Children’s Privacy Policy

We have no intention of collecting information from children at this web site, notwithstanding the following: for specific contests or promotions, a child’s first name, e-mail address, birth date, and zip code may be collected.  This information is only collected when voluntarily submitted by visitors to help fulfill the specific entry requirements of the contest.  For example: to determine age eligibility for a contest, to fulfill contest entry, and to collect general geographic data.  If you choose not to provide this information, online contest entry may not be available to you. Online entrants who are children under the age of 13 will not be contacted by Nestlé Ice Cream unless the child is a potential winner. Potential winners will be contacted via a one-time e-mail communication, and the child will be instructed to have their parent/legal guardian contact a Nestlé Ice Cream representative to provide the child’s home mailing address and telephone number and the e-mail address of the parent/guardian. A Parental Permission Form ("Form") will be e-mailed to the parent/legal guardian which must be completed and signed (indicating approval) and returned by mail or fax to address/fax number provided on the Form to Sponsor within the time specified by Sponsor. If a Form is not completed and submitted within the specified time, the potential winner will forfeit his/her right to be declared a winner or win a prize. E-mail addresses of entrants and their parents/legal guardians will be discarded within one (1) year of the contest closing, and will not be utilized in that period of time for any communications from Nestlé that do not pertain to the contest. No e-mail addresses will be shared with third parties.
