Automated Tools

In addition to the information you provide, Nutmeg may also collect information during your visit to an Nutmeg website through automated tools, which include Web beacons, cookies, embedded Web links, and other commonly used information-gathering tools. These tools collect certain standard information that your browser sends to our website such as your browser type and language, access times, and the address of the website from which you arrived at an Nutmeg website. Using these tools, Nutmeg is also able to confirm receipt of e-mails that the recipient consented to receive, and can track other information such as pages visited on the Nutmeg site and whether or not the recipient registers for an event offered by Nutmeg and certain other aggregate data that is not related to a particular individual.

Embedded Web Links

Emails from Nutmeg often use links designed to lead you to a relevant area on the Web, after redirection through Nutmeg’s servers. The redirection system allows Nutmeg to change the destination URL of these links, if necessary, and to determine the effectiveness of our marketing initiatives.

In emails, such links may also allow Nutmeg to determine if you have clicked on a link in the email, and the information about this interaction may be connected to your personal identity. If you do not want Nutmeg to collect information about the links you clicked, you can simply choose not to click on the links in an e-mail that Nutmeg sends you.

Cookies

We use cookies to deliver personalized content, to save you having to re-enter your password repeatedly, to keep track of your shopping cart, and to tailor our information offerings to how you and others use the site.

If you choose to give us your e-mail address, we will communicate with you via e-mail. We do not share your e-mail address with others outside the Nutmeg Group of companies. You can choose not to receive any more e-mail at any time.

Depending on how your e-mail application is set up, information about you may be transmitted automatically when you send e-mail to Nutmeg.

Sharing Your Personal Data

As a global company, Nutmeg operates a number of Web sites around the world. Any data and information that you volunteer or that is otherwise collected on one of our sites in any one country may be sent electronically to a server for one of these sites in another country. We safeguard your privacy interests around the world by ensuring that this Nutmeg site adheres to our data protection principles described in this statement.

Companies in the Nutmeg Group may use the information internationally in connection with processing your inquiries and orders, to help improve our products and services and for processing and storage.

We may also share such information with business partners, service vendors, authorized third-party agents or contractors in order to provide a requested service or transaction, including processing orders, processing credit card transactions, hosting websites, hosting event and seminar registration and providing customer support, or providing you with information on products and services that may be of interest to you.

We only provide these third parties with the minimum amount of personal data necessary to provide the services on our behalf, and the third parties are not permitted to use your personal data except for the limited purpose of completing the requested service or transaction.

We do not sell or rent your personal data to third parties for marketing purposes unless you have granted us permission to do so.

We may respond to subpoenas, court orders, or legal process by disclosing your personal data and other related information, if necessary. We also may choose to establish or exercise our legal rights or defend against legal claims.

Circumstances may arise where, whether for strategic or other business reasons, Nutmeg decides to sell, buy, merge or otherwise reorganize businesses in some countries. Such a transaction may involve, in accordance with applicable law, the disclosure of personal information to prospective or actual purchasers, or the receipt of it from sellers. It is Nutmeg’s practice to seek appropriate protection for information in these types of transactions.

We may collect and possibly share personal data and any other additional information available to us in order to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person, violations of Nutmeg’s terms of use, or as otherwise required by law.

While visiting Nutmeg’s website you may be directed to content or functionality that is hosted by a third-party supplier, not on nutmegmarketplace.com. Most often, this is done to host special events, such as contests or seminars. When information is collected on behalf of Nutmeg exclusively, the appropriate Nutmeg entity’s privacy statement will be referenced on the site and will govern how information is used. For other, non-Nutmeg sites, the site’s owner’s privacy policy will be referenced. It is Nutmeg’s practice to require such suppliers and business partners to handle information in a manner consistent with Nutmeg’s privacy statement.

Security of Your Personal Data

Nutmeg is committed to protecting the personal data you share with us. Nutmeg uses a combination of industry-standard security technologies, procedures, and organizational measures to help protect your personal data from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. Nutmeg supports online security using secure server technology because we want your data to be safe. There are state-of-the-art security arrangements and facilities on Nutmeg sites to prevent abuse.

We bind our employees to observe your privacy and confidentiality rights.

We may use your email address to confirm your opening of an account, to send you notice of payments, to send you information about changes to our products and services, and to send notices and other disclosures as required by law. Generally, users cannot opt out of these communications, but they will be primarily informational in nature rather than promotional.

Nutmeg provides you the opportunity to exercise an opt-out choice if you do not want to receive other types of communication from us such as emails or updates from us regarding new services and products offered on this website or if you do not want us to share your personal information with third parties.
