MPC may also receive data from third parties including analytics providers or advertising networks such as Google, Facebook, TikTok, or Apple. These third parties may be based outside of the European Union.

Marketing Communications.

As stated above, MPC’s lawful ground for sending you marketing communications is either consent or its legitimate business interests, such as to grow its business by advertising products to you. MPC may send you marketing communications if you have asked for information concerning its goods or services or if you have agreed to, and have not opted out from, receiving marketing communications. You may ask MPC to stop sending you marketing messages at any time by logging into the Website to adjust your marketing preferences within your User Account or by following the opt-out link in any marketing message sent to you. If you opt out of receiving marketing communications, your opt-out does not extend to PII provided for other purposes.

Disclosure of Personal Information.

MPC may share your PII with the following parties:

• MPC’s accountants, auditors, insurers, or attorneys; 
• Law enforcement agencies upon the receipt of a subpoena or court order or where necessary to protect MPC’s personnel or property; and

For customers who reside in the State of Connecticut and order baby chicks, we are required under Connecticut law to share the following information with Connecticut’s Department of Agriculture, and we will do so upon confirmation of an applicable order:

• Last name
• Mailing Address
• Number of chicks purchased
• Date of order

MPC may also transfer PII to third parties when it sells, transfers, or merges any part of its business or assets. 

MPC requires all third parties that receive a transfer of PII from MPC to maintain the same level of respect for the protection of PII as MPC and MPC only allows third parties to process your personal data for the specific purposes listed in this Privacy Policy.

Data Security.

MPC has put into place data security measures to protect your PII. MPC allows access to your PII only by employees and service providers who have a need to know or on MPC’ instructions. However, no security measures are impenetrable and there are always security risks. MPC will notify you and any regulatory body of any breach of your PII or MPC’s security measures if it is legally required to do so.

Retention of Data.

MPC will only retain your PII for so long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it is collected under this Privacy Policy or for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. We will also retain and use your PII to the extent necessary to comply with our legal obligations (for example, if we are required to retain your data to comply with applicable laws, such as the California Consumer Privacy Act), resolve disputes, and enforce our legal agreements and policies.

• Right to Access, Rectification, Correction, Erasure, Transfer, and Withdrawal.

Under the law, you may have a right to request access to your PII for rectification, correction, erasure, transfer, or restriction, or to object to its processing or withdraw your consent. If you wish to exercise any of these rights, please contact MPC’s Data Protection Officer as disclosed in this Privacy Policy. 

You do not need to pay a fee to access your PII or to exercise your rights. However, MPC may charge a reasonable fee if your request is unreasonable or excessive.

To confirm your request, MPC may need to request specific information from you as a security measure to ensure that PII is not disclosed to an unauthorized third party. MPC will attempt to respond to all legitimate requests within thirty (30) days.

California Privacy Rights.

The following rules apply solely to visitors, users, and others who are residents of the State of California. California residents have the right to be notified which categories of PII are being collected and the purposes for which the PII is being used. In particular, we collected the following categories of PII (A, B, D, and F) as defined in the California Consumer Privacy Act within the last twelve months. Our uses of this PII are detailed above in this Privacy Policy:

Category	Examples	Collected
A. Identifiers	Real name, alias, postal address, unique personal identifier, online identifier, Internet Protocol address, email address, account name, or other similar identifiers.	YES
B. Personal information categories listed in the California Consumer Records statute (Cal. Civ. Code § 1798.80(e))	Name, signature, address, telephone number, bank account number, credit card number, debit card number, or any other financial information.	YES
D. Commercial	Records of products purchased.	YES
F. Internet or other similar network activity	Browsing history, search history, information on a consumer’s interaction with a website, application, or advertisement.	YES

 

We obtain these categories of PII directly from California residents when they complete forms through our website or provide it to us as a part of a transaction or inquiry concerning our products. We also obtain these categories of PII indirectly from California residents while observing their actions on our Website and from third parties or service providers that they have authorized to receive and share PII.

California residents have a right to request that we disclose what PII we collect from you and whether, and how, we disclose or sell that PII. California residents may also request that we delete any personal information collected or maintained by us from you. 

California residents may also have the right to opt out of the sale of their personal information by contacting us or, where available, by clicking a link or icon associated with an advertisement. Specifically, this link or icon may state “Do Not Sell My Personal Information” or “Do Not Sell My Info.” By selecting this link or icon, you “Opt Out,” which means that you have opted out of the sale of your personal information as set forth in the California Consumer Privacy Act. However, even though you may have opted out, you may still see interest-based advertisements. To learn more about interest-based advertising across websites and additional opt-out choices, you can visit http://optout.aboutads.info. If you opt-out of the sale of your personal information but do not opt out of interest-based advertising more generally, you may still receive ads tailored to your interests based on PII that was not sold by us, personal information that was sold to downstream participants at least 90 days before you opted out, or personal information that was sold by other sources from which you have not opted out.

To submit a request for a list of the categories of personal information collected from you or to request that MPC delete your personal information, please email us at info@mypetchicken.com or send a letter to us at the following address:

PO Box 216

To verify your request, we may request certain information from you to confirm that you are a MPC user, such as your phone number, username, email address, city, state, or geographic location. You may also designate an authorized agent to make a request to MPC to disclose or delete your personal information. To do so, you must provide MPC with proof that the individual or business has been appointed as your agent, such by providing a signed power of attorney form, and provide accurate responses to any information requested by MPC that may be necessary to confirm that you are a MPC user, such as your phone number, username, email address, city, state, or geographic location. California residents have a right not to receive discriminatory treatment by MPC for their exercise of these rights conferred under California law.

Third Party Links.

MPC’ Website may include links to third-party websites and applications. By clicking on third-party links, you may allow third parties to collect or share data about you. MPC does not control these third-party links and you are advised to review their respective privacy policies.

Responding to Do Not Track Signals.

You can generally opt-out of receiving personalized ads from third party advertisers and ad networks who are members of the Network Advertising Initiative (NAI) or who follow the Digital Advertising Alliance’s Self-Regulatory Principles for Online Behavioral Advertising by visiting the opt-out pages on the NAI website and DAA website. Our website is not currently set up to respond to browser do-not-track signals because there is no consensus within the advertising industry as to what “do not track” means in this context, but you can configure your browser settings to reject all cookies or prompt you before a cookie is set.

Nevada Residents.

If you are a resident of Nevada, you may provide notice to us to limit the sale of your PII to third parties for resale or licensing purposes. However, we do not sell your PII for such use. To notify us that you wish to limit the sale of your PII to third parties for resale or licensing purposes, you may send us an email info@mypetchicken.com with the subject line, “Nevada Do Not Sell Request,” along with your name, address, and user account information.

Children’s Privacy.

We do not direct the Website to anyone under the age of 13 and we do not knowingly collect PII from anyone under the age of 13. If you are a parent or guardian of an individual under the age of 13 and believe that we may have collected PII from your child, please contact us at info@mypetchicken.com.
