In addition, we may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, supplement the Personal Information that you provide us and/or the Other Information we collect from you with demographic, social, and other information about you that we receive from other sources, both online and offline, which may include information that we collect or have collected in connection with loyalty programs and/or in-store transactions, promotions or events ("Supplemental Information"). If, to the extent permitted by applicable law, we combine any Supplemental Information with your Personal Information or Other Information collected pursuant to this policy, then we apply the applicable provisions of this Privacy Policy to such combined information, so long as it is combined. For clarity, this Privacy Policy does not apply to any Supplemental Information in its original format, or otherwise in any format that is not combined with your Personal Information or Other Information collected pursuant to this Privacy Policy.

Using cookies: Cookies are pieces of information stored directly on the computer that you are using. Cookies allow us to collect information such as browser type, time spent on the Services, pages visited, language preferences, and other traffic data. We and our service providers use the information for security purposes, to recognize your computer when you return to the Services, to facilitate navigation, to display information more effectively, and to personalize your experience while using the Services. We also gather statistical information about use of the Services in order to continually improve their design and functionality, understand how they are used, and assist us with resolving questions regarding them. Cookies further allow us to select which of our advertisements or offers are most likely to appeal to you and display them while you are on the Services. We may also use cookies in online advertising to track responses to our advertisements. We do not track your use of third-party websites or services. If you do not want information collected through the use of cookies, there is a simple procedure in most browsers that allows you to automatically decline cookies or be given the choice of declining or accepting the transfer to your computer of a cookie (or cookies) from a particular site. You may also wish to refer to https://www.allaboutcookies.org/manage-cookies/index.html. If, however, you do not accept our cookies, you may experience some inconvenience in your use of the Services. For example, we may not be able to recognize your computer and you may need to log in every time you visit. You also may not receive advertising or other offers from us that are relevant to your interests and needs.

An IP address may be identified and logged automatically in our server log files whenever a user accesses the Services, along with the time of the visit and the page(s) that were visited. Collecting IP addresses is standard practice and is done automatically by many websites, applications, and other services. We use IP addresses for purposes such as identifying your general location, calculating usage levels, helping diagnose server problems, and administering the Services.
Physical Location: We may collect the physical location of your device by, for example, using satellite, cell phone tower, Wi-Fi or Bluetooth signals, and other similar technologies. We may use your device’s physical location to provide you with personalized location-based services and content.

In some instances, we may combine Other Information with Personal Information. If we do, we will treat the combined information as Personal Information as long as it is combined.

LINKS

This Privacy Policy does not address, and we are not responsible for, the privacy, information, or other practices of any third party operating any site or service to which the Services link or which link to the Services.

SECURITY

We seek to use reasonable physical, technical, and administrative measures designed to protect Personal Information within our organization.

When we collect Social Security numbers in the course of our business, it is our policy to use reasonable physical, technical, and administrative measures designed to protect the confidentiality of such numbers, prohibit their unlawful use or disclosure, and limit access to them. When disposed of, this information is shredded, destroyed, erased, or otherwise sought to be made unreadable. To the extent Social Security numbers are Protected Health Information, see the H-E-B Wellness Primary Care Notice of Privacy Practices for additional information regarding the steps we take to protect and safeguard such information.
