Cookies, Web Beacons and Online Advertising

Except as set forth below, we will not knowingly disclose your Personal Information to anyone outside of Blaze Pizza or our affiliated companies (collectively “Blaze Pizza”):
  • What Are Cookies? Blaze Pizza and its agents use small text files called cookies, (collectively, “Cookies”). Cookies are small pieces of data that we and our agents place in your computer’s browser to store your preferences. Cookies are not themselves personally identifiable, but under certain circumstances, may be capable of identifying you as a person (in and of itself the information collected by these tools is Non-Personal information but could potentially be used in connection with other data to uniquely identify you as a user to enhance your experience while using the Online Services). A Cookie will typically contain the name of the domain (internet location) from which the Cookie has come, the “lifetime” of the Cookie (i.e. when does it expire), and a value, usually a randomly generated unique number.
  • Types of Cookies Each cookie performs one or more of the following functions:
    • (a) Essential Cookies: These first party cookies allow you to use a feature of the Online Services, such as to stay logged in or make purchase.
    • (b) Analytics Cookies: These can be first party or third party cookies. Such cookies track information about how the Online Services are used so Blaze Pizza can make improvements and report on our performance. Blaze Pizza may also use such cookies to test new ads or features.
    • (c) Preference Cookies: These first party cookies store your Online Services preferences.
    • (d) Ad Targeting Cookies: These third party cookies (also called “behavioral” or “targeted” advertising) are placed by advertising platforms or networks to deliver ads and track performance or to deliver ads based upon your activities.
  • How We Use Cookies We use Cookies so that we can improve your online experience – for example, by remembering you when you come back to visit us, and making the content you see more relevant to you. Cookies also enable us to track online purchases made through the Online Services.
  • Your Control of Cookies Web browsers allow some control of most Cookies through the browser settings. To find out more about Cookies, including how to see what Cookies have been set on your device and how to manage and delete them, visit www.allaboutcookies.org. Please understand, however, if you disable Cookies, some features of the Online Services may not work as well (or at all) for you.
  • Online Advertising We use Cookies and other technologies, such as pixel tags, web beacons, and clear GIF files, to help manage our online advertising program. These technologies may enable us (or third party advertising services we work with) to learn which advertisements bring users to the Online Services. They also may enable us (or third-party advertising services we work with) to track the actions of users online over time and across different web sites or platforms to measure statistics of our marketing efforts, and to deliver electronic advertisements that may be more relevant to individual consumers and that will improve the consumer experience. For information about how tracking works for online advertising purposes, and what happens when you elect a do-not-track option, visit http://www.aboutads.info/choices. In addition, some third party businesses may provide a mechanism to opt-out of their technology. For more information about the opt-out process, visit the Network Advertising Initiative website, available at: http://www.networkadvertising.org/managing/opt_out.asp. At this time, the Online Services are not able to respond to do-not-track requests from browsers.
  • Analytics We also use third-party analytics such as Google Analytics to gather and analyze anonymous user information. Google Analytics is a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. ("Google"), to collect information about use of the Online Services. Google may use cookies to collect information about your purchase history, the content you view, what websites you visit immediately prior to and after visiting the Online Services, and your system information and geographic information. The information generated by the Google cookies about your use of the Online Services will be transmitted to and stored by Google. The information collected by Google allows us to analyze the use of the Online Services, but does not identify you.

Social Networking and Third Party Sites

When you sign in or link to the Online Services through any social networking service, any information you supply (or have supplied) to us becomes subject to the privacy policy of that social network/service. We do not control, and are not responsible for, the privacy practices of such networks or services. You should consult the privacy policy of such networks/services. If you post information in a public forum it becomes public information. In addition, we may disclose your Personal Information in order to identify you to anyone to whom you send communications through the Online Services. The Online Services may provide links to other sites or services. If you use such other sites or services, check their privacy policies. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of any other site or service.

California Residents

If you are a California resident, the following provisions prevail over any conflicting provisions in other sections of this Privacy Policy.

Under California Civil Code sections 1798.83-1798.84, also known as the “Shine the Light Law,” any of our users who are California residents are entitled to request and receive once a year, free of charge, a notice from us describing what categories of personal customer information (if any) we shared with third parties or corporate affiliates for their direct marketing purposes during the preceding calendar year. If applicable, the notice will identify the categories of information shared, the names and addresses of the third parties and affiliates with which information was shared. If you are a California resident and would like to request a copy of this notice, please submit a written request to the following address: Blaze Corporate Affairs, Blaze Pizza, LLC., 35 N. Lake Ave #710, Pasadena, CA 91101. In your request, please specify that you want a “California Privacy Rights Notice.” Please allow at least thirty days for a response.

  • Conducting internal research to develop and demonstrate technology;
  • Conducting activity to verify, enhance, and maintain the quality or safety of services or devices which we may own, control, or provide; and

If you are a California resident, you have certain rights related to your Personal Information, including:
  • The right to request that we disclose to you:
    • the specific pieces of Personal Information we have collected;
    • the categories of Personal Information we have collected about you;

You may request to exercise these rights by:

Calling us toll-free at 1-866-553-5554; or
By submitting a request here.

We may limit our response to your rights request as permitted under applicable law. The right to disclosure and right to deletion are not absolute and are subject to certain exceptions. For instance, we cannot disclose specific pieces of Personal Information if the disclosure would create a substantial, articulable, and unreasonable risk to the security of the Personal Information, your account with us or the security of the business’s systems of networks.

As required under California law, please note that we will take steps to verify your identity before granting you access to information or acting on your request to exercise your rights. We cannot effectuate your request if we are unable to verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm that the personal information relates to you. We may require you to provide your email address to verify your identity in response to exercising requests of the above type. You will, therefore, need access to your email account to receive our communications necessary to process your request. Please make sure to check your spam inbox to ensure these important communications are not missed. We will not use any Personal Information provided to us for verification purposes for any reason other than to verify your identity.

Under California law, you may designate an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf. You may make such a designation by providing the agent with written permission to act on your behalf. We will require the agent to provide proof of that written permission. As permitted by law, we may require you to verify your own identity in response to a request, even if you choose to use an agent.

We endeavor to respond to a verifiable consumer request within 45 days of its receipt. If we require more time (up to 90 days), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing.

We may not discriminate against you because of your exercise of any of the above rights or any other rights, subject to the rights and the obligations under the CCPA, including by:
  • Denying you goods or services;
  • Charging different prices or rates for goods or services, including through the use of discounts, loyalty program, or other benefits or imposing penalties;
  • Providing you a different level or quality of goods or services; or
  • Suggesting that you will receive a different price or rate for goods or services or a different level or quality of goods or services.
  • However, we may offer you certain financial incentives permitted by law that can result in different prices, rates, or quality levels. Any permitted financial incentive we offer will reasonably relate to your personal information’s value and contain written terms that describe the program’s material aspects. Participation in a financial incentive program requires your prior opt in consent, which you may revoke at any time.
You may contact us with questions and concerns about our privacy policies or practices by contacting us using any of the methods listed in the "Contact Us" Section.

California Do Not Track

California Business & Professions Code Section 22575(b) (as amended effective January 1, 2014) provides that California residents are entitled to know how we respond to “Do Not Track” browser settings. However, we do not currently take actions to respond to Do Not Track signals because a uniform technological standard has not yet been developed.

The Online Services are not intended for children under the age of 13. We will not knowingly collect any Personal Information from children under the age of 13. If we learn that we have obtained any Personal Information about a child under age 13, we will delete that information.

Security

We strive to use reasonable safeguards to help prevent loss, misuse and unauthorized access, disclosure or modification of Personal Information provided or collected through the Online Services by employing appropriate physical, technological, and organizational measures. However, no system is perfect or can guarantee that unauthorized access or theft might not occur. If such an unfortunate event were to arise, upon learning of the event we will take immediate remedial action, including notifying you if there is any risk of significant harm to your Personal Information, or as required by Canadian and/or U.S. law.

Retention of Information

Following termination or deactivation of any user account you may create, unless you request that your information be deleted by contacting us, we may retain your information for back-up, archival, legal and audit purposes, and to reactivate your account upon your request. We will only retain your information for as long as it is needed for purpose it was collected. In addition, we may retain and continue to use indefinitely all information contained in your communications to other users of the Online Services posted to public or semi-public areas of the Online Services after termination or deactivation of your user account.
