  • Other information: any other information that you or another person or organization on your behalf provides to us including directly during events or on-site events by Danone representatives or third parties on our behalf.

We may collect personal information in the following ways:

a. Directly From You

You may provide personal information to us by mail, by email, over the telephone, through our Sites or in any other direct manner. For example:

  • We collect the information you provide when you contact us with an inquiry, contact customer service (including through the chat feature on our Sites), complete a satisfaction survey or contact us through social media.
  • We collect the information you provide when you create an account on our Sites or sign up for a newsletter and when if you make a purchase.

  • We collect the information you provide when you apply for an employment opportunity by sending us a resume or by submitting a job application through our Sites (such as our career portal).

b. From Other Sources

Occasionally, we may receive personal information from other sources. In these cases, we receive your personal information from these other sources with your consent or if applicable law requires or permits us to do so.  For example:We may receive personal information from organizations with which we partner to offer certain products or to provide certain programs or services.

c. Online Technologies

With your consent, or if otherwise permitted by applicable law, we may collect certain types of information electronically when you interact with our Sites, emails, social media accounts, online advertising, or through technologies such as cookies, web beacons, single pixel gifs and analytics engines. This information helps us understand what actions you take on our Sites and allows our Sites to work correctly. To the extent required by applicable law, we will notify you before or at the time of collection of the means by which you can activate relevant technological functions. For example: 

  • We may use your location or language preference to auto-select features when you visit our Sites;
  • We may use information about your purchase on our Sites to provide you with interest-based advertisements based on your purchasing profile; and
  • We may collect, combine and categorize your personal information on an aggregated basis to identify purchasing patterns to help us analyze our businesses to better serve customers.

The technologies and services we may use include:

  • Cookies, which are small text files that are saved on your computer when you visit a website so that information can be saved between visits, such as your login credentials or language preferences. For example, cookies allow you to log in quickly when you visit our Sites.
  • Web beacons, tags, and single pixel gifs, which are small image files that have information about you, such as your IP address, that can be downloaded when you visit a website or open an e-mail. If you activate certain of these functions, this may allows us to understand your online behaviour, monitor our email delivery, and provide you with interest-based advertising. These tools may also allow our third-party tracking tools to gather information, such as your IP address, browser information, device type, and websites visited, and provide this back to us in an anonymized, aggregate form (i.e. in a manner that prevents us from identifying you personally). Aggregate/anonymized information refers to personal information compiled and expressed in a summary form where no personal identifiers are included and which cannot be used to identify, directly or indirectly, an individual.
  • Other technologies, such as analytics engines, which, if you activate certain of these functions, may pull usage data from multiple sources and help manage and collect this data to use for personalization, interest-based advertising, customizing content and other methods to gain insights into our customers’ needs and preferences. For instance, we use Google Analytics which allows us to see information on user website activities including, but not limited to, page views, source and time spent on our Sites. This information is anonymized and is displayed generally as the number of visitors to a website or who have viewed a specific product page or other similar aggregate numerical information which cannot be used to identify any individuals. You may opt out of our use of Google Analytics by visiting the Google Analytics opt-out page.

Through these technologies, we may collect personal information as follows:

  • Third-Party Social Networks. Third-party social networks that provide interactive plug-ins to enable social network features (e.g., to connect to Facebook) on the Sites may use cookies to gather information on your use of the Sites. How this collected data is used by a third party is dependent on the privacy policy of the social network, which is available on the appropriate parties’ website. Danone encourages you to review the privacy policies of third parties as well. Third parties involved may use these tracking methods such as but not limited to cookies to achieve their own business goals and purposes by relating and combining information about your usage of our Sites to any other personal information they may have collected on you. We may also obtain and use analytical and statistical information from third-party social networks to help us measure performance and effectiveness of content we display on social networks, for example, by measuring impressions and clicks on the content Danone promotes.
  • Google Ads: We use Google Ads Remarketing to advertise Danone across the Internet and to advertise on third-party websites (including Google) to previous visitors to our websites. Google Ads remarketing will display ads to you based on what parts of the Sites you have viewed by placing a cookie on your web browser. It could mean that we advertise to previous visitors who haven’t completed a task on our Sites or this could be in the form of an advertisement on the Google search results page, or a website in the Google Display Network. This cookie does not in any way identify you or give access to your computer or mobile device. The cookie is only used to indicate to other websites that you have visited a particular page on our Sites, so that they may show you ads relating to that page. If you do not wish to participate in our Google Ads Remarketing, you can opt out by visiting Google’s Ads Preferences Manager or as described in the section How Can You Change Your Privacy Choices?.
  • Online Interest-based Advertising. Danone may also allow a limited number of trusted third parties to install cookies on your hard drive from our Sites. Our Sites may include third-party advertising and links to other websites which may be used to generate personalized advertisements. Personalized ads, sometimes referred to as interest-based or behavioral ads, are ads based upon information about you, such as your page views on our Sites, your information requests or purchases on our Sites. We do not provide any personal information to advertisers or to third party sites that display interest-based ads on our Sites. However, advertisers and other third parties (including the ad networks, ad-serving companies, and other service providers they may use) may assume that users who interact with or click on a personalized ad or content displayed on our Sites are part of the group that the ad or content is directed towards. Advertisers or ad companies working on their behalf sometimes use technology to serve the ads that appear on our Sites directly to your browser. They may also use cookies to measure the effectiveness of their ads and to personalize ad content. We do not have access to or control over cookies or other features that advertisers and third party sites may use, and the information practices of these advertisers and third-party websites are not covered by our Privacy Policy. Please contact them directly for more information about their privacy practices. You can also generally opt-out of receiving personalized ads from third-party advertisers and ad networks who are members of the Digital Advertising Alliance of Canada. Please visit the DAAC opt-out page for more information.

You may delete or disable certain of these technologies at any time via your browser or by clicking on “Cookie preferences” at the bottom of our websites. However, if you do so, you may not be able to use some of the features on our Sites. To learn more about the privacy choices available to you, please visit How Can You Change Your Privacy Choices?

8. How We Store and Safeguard Personal Information?

We take the security of your personal information very seriously and are committed to protecting your privacy by using a combination of administrative, physical and technical safeguards, and implementing data protection processes. These measures include access restrictions, authentication systems, personnel training, and encryption.

We store your personal information for as long as it is necessary to provide you with our programs, products, and services and for a reasonable time thereafter, or as permitted or required by applicable law.

a. How We Protect Personal Information

We employ organizational, physical and technological measures to protect the confidentiality of personal information and to safeguard personal information against loss or theft, as well as unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use or modification, in light of, among other things, the sensitivity of the information and the purposes for which it is to be used. These measures include access restrictions, encryption, and personnel training concerning the importance of preserving the privacy, confidentiality, and security of the personal information we collect. These safeguards also apply when we dispose of or destroy your personal information.

We also implemented a comprehensive set of policies and practices to protect your personal information. These measures take into account the volume, sensitivity, intended use, and format of the information, and generally include the following:

  • A privacy framework governing the protection of personal information throughout its lifecycle. This framework defines, among other things, the roles and responsibilities of Danone’s personnel, provides a process for handling privacy complaints, and addresses the retention and destruction of personal information;
  • Other internal policies and procedures that define the roles and responsibilities of Danone’s personnel throughout the information life cycle and limit their access to such information on a “need-to-know” basis;
  • When information is collected or stored in electronic format, technical safeguards such as encryption, firewalls, passwords, antivirus software and similar measures;
  • A designated Privacy Officer to monitor compliance with applicable data protection laws; and
  • Employee privacy and data security training.

Please be careful whenever sending personal information to us via email. Email is generally not a secure means of transferring information. We therefore cannot guarantee that this information will not be lost or used in a fraudulent manner and we encourage the use of email encryption to communicate with us.

b. Transfer of Personal Information Outside of Canada

We may share personal information within Danone entities in Canada and with our affiliates and subsidiaries outside Canada (and outside of Quebec). Some of our service providers may also access, process or store your personal information outside of the jurisdiction in which you reside. We use reasonable safeguards such as contractual requirements to ensure that our service providers protect your personal information wherever it is used or stored.

As a result, when your personal information is used or stored in a jurisdiction other than your jurisdiction of residence, it may be subject to the law of this foreign jurisdiction, including any law permitting or requiring disclosure of the information to the government, government agencies, courts and law enforcement in that jurisdiction.

We will store your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the above purposes for which it was collected, in accordance with our retention policies, except where otherwise required or permitted by applicable law. Once no longer required, your personal information will be securely destroyed or anonymized (so the information no longer, directly or indirectly, identifies you) in accordance with applicable laws.

9. Collection of Personal Information from Children

It is neither our goal nor intention to collect or post personal information from children under the age of eighteen without their parent’s or guardian’s consent. Danone does not knowingly provide any personal information collected from children, regardless of its source, to any third party for any purpose whatsoever. We do not allow children under the age of eighteen to submit information to the Sites and require a parent or guardian to submit on the child’s behalf. Danone encourages parents and guardians to spend time online with their children and to participate in the interactive activities offered on the Site.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is possible that we nevertheless collect such information from children if same is provided to us.

If you reside in Quebec, you may also have the right to receive computerized personal information collected from you in a “portable” (i.e., structured, commonly used technological) format, or to have us share it with an authorized third party, unless doing so poses serious practical difficulties or as otherwise permitted or required by applicable law.

If we use your personal information to make decisions based exclusively on automated processing, you may have the right to request the personal information used, the reasons and factors behind the decision, and to correct any inaccuracies in the personal information used to make the decision. You can also submit comments to our team for the purpose of reviewing the decision.

Subject to exceptions under applicable law, you may also have the right to withdraw your consent to our collection, use and communication of your personal information.
