We respect the privacy rights of individuals
KAO BRANDS will respect the legal requirements that exist regarding the privacy of personal information and is committed to complying with all applicable law. KAO BRANDS will, from time to time, review its personal information collection, use, and disclosure practices in order to assure compliance with laws and regulations.
What personal information we collect
On some KAO BRANDS web pages, you can contact us or enter our guestbook. The types of personal information collected at these pages may include name, mailing address and email address.
In order to tailor our subsequent communications to you and continuously improve our products and services, we may also ask you to voluntarily provide us with information, including information regarding your personal or professional interests, demographics, experience with our products and contact preferences.
We do not collect any personal information about you unless you provide it to us. If you email us or answer questions we have placed on this web site, you are voluntarily releasing that information to us. Please do not submit personal information to us if you do not want us to have this information in our database.
How we use personal information
KAO BRANDS uses your personal information to better understand your needs and provide you with better products and service. Specifically, we use your information to communicate back to you, to update you on products, services and benefits, and to personalize our web site for you.
Occasionally, KAO BRANDS may also use your information to contact you for market research or to provide you with marketing information we think would be of particular interest. We will always give you the opportunity to opt out of receiving such contacts.
KAO BRANDS may share the personal information you provide online with other KAO BRANDS divisions or affiliates and/or business partners, who are acting on our behalf or who offer products or services that we believe may be of interest to you, which may include transferring the personal information to other countries. Whenever any personal information is transferred to a third party as described above, that party will be contractually bound to abide by the terms of the KAO BRANDS privacy policy and the notice provided to you when the information was collected. When permitted or required by law or court order, KAO BRANDS reserves the right to collect, use and/or disclose your personal information pursuant to procedures that do not require giving notice or conducting related activities (for example, in connection with law enforcement investigations).
In the event of a sale, merger, liquidation, dissolution, reorganization or acquisition of KAO BRANDS, or a KAO BRANDS business unit, information KAO BRANDS has collected about you may be sold or otherwise transferred. However, this will only happen if the party acquiring the information agrees to be bound by the terms of the KAO BRANDS privacy policy and the notice provided to you when the information was collected.
Your choice
KAO BRANDS will not use or share the personal information provided to us online in ways unrelated to the ones described above without letting you know and offering you a choice. We will also provide you the opportunity to let us know if you do not wish to receive unsolicited direct marketing materials from us, and we will make all reasonable efforts to honor such requests. We are not responsible for removing your personal information from the lists of any third party who has been provided your information in accordance with this policy, such as a business partner.
What aggregate information we collect
We may also collect non-personal information and may aggregate any information collected in a manner which does not identify any specific individual.
"Cookies" are pieces of information that may be placed on your computer by a web site for the purpose of facilitating and enhancing your communication and interaction with that web site. Many web sites, including ours, use cookies for these purposes.

As you use the Internet, a trail of electronic information is left at each web site you visit. This information, which is sometimes referred to as "clickstream data," may be collected and stored by a web site’s server such as ours. Clickstream data can tell us the type of computer and browsing software you use and the address of the web site from which you linked to the Site.
How we use aggregate information
We may use cookies to customize your visit to our web site and for other purposes to make your visit more convenient or to enable us to enhance our service.

We may collect and use clickstream data as a form of aggregate information to anonymously determine how much time visitors spend on each page of our web site, how visitors navigate throughout the web site and how we may tailor our web pages to better meet the needs of visitors. We may use this information to improve our web site and our services. Any collection or use of clickstream data will be anonymous and aggregate, and will not intentionally contain any personal information.
Security
KAO BRANDS is committed to taking reasonable steps to ensure the security of your personal information. To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the appropriate use of personal information, we have put in place appropriate physical, electronic and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the personal information we collect online.
Collection of Information from Children
KAO BRANDS has no intention of collecting personal information from children (i.e., individuals under the age of 13). KAO BRANDS will maintain procedures to assure that information about children is only collected with explicit consent and is protected against improper use, consistent with applicable law. If a child has provided KAO BRANDS with personal information, KAO BRANDS asks that a parent or guardian of the child contact KAO BRANDS using our Contact Us page to inform us of that fact. KAO BRANDS will use reasonable efforts to delete such information from its database.

Furthermore, you expressly agree that we are free to use any ideas, concepts, know-how, or techniques contained in any communication you send to us without compensation and for any purpose whatsoever, including but not limited to, developing, manufacturing and marketing products and services using such information.
