By accessing and using MyChinet.com’s web pages (hereinafter referred to as Pages) you agree to the terms and conditions of the following Privacy Policy (the Privacy Policy of the Pages is hereinafter referred to as Privacy Policy). Do not use these Pages if you do not agree to all of the terms and conditions of the following Privacy Policy.

This Privacy Policy has been posted and is effective as of June 11, 2008.

Huhtamaki, the makers of Chinet, takes the privacy of your personal information seriously. This Privacy Policy describes the measures we take to help ensure the security of information collected through our web site.

How Personal Information is Collected and Used
Huhtamaki only collects personal information that you voluntarily submit through our web site. This may include information such as your name, street and e-mail addresses, and telephone number. We do not automatically collect personal information without your knowledge.

Uses of Personal Information
Unless we specifically tell you otherwise before you submit personal information, we will only use it to:

  • Respond to your questions or comments
  • Better understand your viewing patterns and needs
  • Help us understand how we can improve our products, services and Web site
  • Inform you about special information
  • Contact you to ask for your opinion or willingness to participate in certain events

Use of Cookies
To improve your visits to our site, we may use “cookies” or other automatically collected data to obtain non-personal information (cookies are text information files that your browser places on your computer when you visit a web site). We may aggregate this data to analyze the viewing patterns of our site visitors, but it will not be associated with any personally identifiable data. 

If you want to be notified when cookies are placed on your computer, or do not wish to receive them, you may set your web browser to notify you of them, if your web browser so permits. Please keep in mind that if you do not allow the use of cookies, you may not be able to view all parts of these Pages. 

We also allow third-party companies to collect certain non-personally identifiable information (e.g., the type of browser and/or operating system you use, time and date, and information relating to the content you are viewing) on our behalf when you visit our digital properties. These companies may use such non-personally identifiable information in order to provide advertisements about our exhibits, events, programs, goods and services likely to be of greater interest to you on other digital properties. These companies typically use a cookie, a web beacon or other technology to collect this information. To learn more about this targeted advertising practice or to opt-out of this type of advertising via cookies, you can visit http://www.aboutads.info/choices/ or http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/.

Sharing Your Personal Information with Others
We will not use or share your personal information in ways unrelated to the uses described above unless we provide you with prior notice and have given you an opportunity to change your usage preferences.

Unless you give us prior consent, Huhtamaki will not trade, sell or share your personal information with any person or entity outside Huhtamaki and its representatives, unless required by law or as disclosed to you before the information is collected.

For certain promotions or product requests, we may share your information with an outside company for the sole purpose of fulfilling your request. These companies are carefully selected by us and also take the protection of your personal information seriously.

Access of Your Information
The security of your personal information is very important to us. We use appropriate technical and managerial procedures to protect your personal information and prevent its disclosure outside MyChinet.com. Only those authorized by us will be granted access to your personal information.

In addition to careful consideration about what information you share and who you share it with, we recommend that everyone develop good security habits. These include protecting and regularly changing your password, using computer virus protection, logging off when you finish using your computer, and considering the use of file or e-mail encryption programs.
