As described to you when collecting your Personal Information.

 

We have obtained the Personal Information listed above from the following sources:

  • Directly from you. We may collect certain Personal Information when you interact directly with us or our Online Services. For example, forms you complete on our Website, when you create a My Rewards account, or via the purchase of products such as food or gift cards.
  • Indirectly from you. When you use our Online Services, our technology has the ability to collect certain types of Personal Information (see Sections 3 and 4 below). For example, when you place an order through our Website or Application, depending on your device’s location settings and your choices, we may use your location to determine which restaurant is closest to you to help you place a convenient order. Other examples include collection of your Personal Information through your interaction on our Website, our Application, or with our advertisers.
  • Other sources. We may get Personal Information from other companies. For example, service providers such as third party delivery platforms, vendors who help us understand and use the information we collect and our advertisers via Website cookies, pixels, and other tracking technologies as described below.

3. Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies 

When you use our Online Services, we may collect certain information via automated means, as well as through the use of common online tracking tools such as cookies, pixels and web beacons. For example, we may collect information about visitors’ preferences, to record user-specific information on which pages a visitor accesses or visits, and customize web page content based on visitors’ browser types or other information that a visitor sends via their browser or other means. Passive information collection technologies such as cookies can make your use of the Online Services easier by allowing Hardee’s to provide better service, customize web pages based on consumer preferences, compile statistics, analyze trends, and otherwise administer and improve the Online Services. We may also collect information using location-based data services for uses such as identifying restaurants near a user or timing for an order. 

 

In addition, to provide you with a more relevant and interesting experience, we may participate in behavioral-based advertising. This means that Hardee’s and/or one of our vendors may place a cookie on your browser, or use a web beacon, to collect information about your use of our Online Services so that Hardee’s and/or a third party can provide advertising about products and services tailored to your interest (including, without limitation, products and services offered by Hardee’s and its affiliates). These ad servers or ad networks use technology to the advertisements and links that appear on the Online Services sent directly to your browser. They automatically receive your IP address when this occurs. To opt-out of these cookies, visit our cookie settings

 

For more information about this practice and to learn how to opt out of it in browsers on the device on which you are accessing this Privacy Policy, please visit one of the opt-out organizations sites such as Digital Advertising Alliance’s AdChoices Program (https://optout.aboutads.info/?c=2&lang=EN) or the Network Advertising Initiative’s Opt-Out (https://optout.networkadvertising.org/?c=1).  For your mobile device, you may download the AppChoices app to opt out in mobile apps. 

 

We do not currently recognize the “Do Not Track” signal.

 

4. Google Analytics 

Hardee’s has implemented certain features of Google Analytics advertising features for the Website, including Remarketing with Google Analytics, Google Display Network Impression Reporting, Google Analytics Demographics and Interest Reporting and Integrated services that require Google Analytics to collect data via advertising cookies and anonymous identifiers. As a part of these programs, Google, as a third party vendor, makes use of certain cookies and anonymous identifiers to serve ads on the Website and to provide certain behavioral, demographic and interest data with third parties. Google’s use of these cookies enables it to serve ads to users based on their visit to the Website and other sites on the Internet.

 

Users may opt out of the use of the Google Analytics advertising features through Google Ads Settings (see https://www.google.com/settings/ads/plugin), Google Ad Settings for mobile apps, the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on (available at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout/), or through our online portal.

 

5.  Online Chat

Our Online Services may include interactive chat features to assist you with placing orders, using our Website, and otherwise providing customer service. When you participate in an interactive chat, either with a virtual or live agent, the contents of the chat may be captured and kept as a transcript. By using these features, you understand that our vendors may process the information obtained through the feature to provide the service on our behalf.

6.  How We Disclose, Share, and Sell Personal Information 

We disclose Personal Information to our service providers and contractors for the business or commercial purposes described in Section 2 above and as further detailed below. 

  1. Affiliates and Acquisitions. We may share information with our corporate affiliates (e.g., parent company, sister companies, subsidiaries, joint ventures, or other companies under common control). If another company acquires, or plans to acquire, our company, business, or our assets, we will also share information with that company, including at the negotiation stage. 
  2. Franchisees. While this Policy does not apply to any Personal Information collected and processed solely by our franchisees in or in connection with restaurants they own and independently operate, we do share limited information with our franchisees to ensure you have a seamless experience. For example, if you place an order through our Online Services for delivery from or pick up at a franchisee restaurant, we may need to share Personal Information to prepare and process your order and/or delivery. 
  3. Service Providers Acting on Our Behalf. We may share your information with service providers who assist us with our business operations. Among other things, service providers may help us to administer our Online Services, gift card support, conduct surveys, provide technical support, process payments, and assist in the fulfillment of orders.
  4. Other Disclosures without Your Consent. We may disclose information in response to subpoenas, warrants, or court orders, or in connection with any legal process, or to comply with relevant laws. We may also share your information in order to establish or exercise our rights, to defend against a legal claim, to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding possible illegal activities, suspected fraud, safety of person or property, or a violation of our policies, or to comply with your request for the shipment of products to or the provision of services by a third-party intermediary.

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.

Summary of Financial Incentives Offered.

From time to time, Hardee’s offers coupons, specials, and other discounts to consumers who have opted-in to receive marketing material from us by providing us with certain Personal Information. Consumers may also participate in our free loyalty/rewards program – the Hardee’s My Rewards program (the “Program”). You will be enrolled in the Program only after you provide prior opt-in consent. Participation in the Program gives consumers the opportunity to accrue points to earn food items with qualifying purchases. The Program collects and retains members’ Personal Information in order to keep track of the points you have accrued and/or purchases you have made. 

Material Terms of Financial Incentives.

When we offer a financial incentive or participation in our Program, the offer will include an explanation of the material terms of the incentive.

Whether you consent to the financial incentive and/or to enroll in our Program and whether you choose to allow us to collect and use other types of Personal Information about you affects how we communicate with you and the types and frequency of offers that you may receive.

We estimate that the value of consumers’ Personal Information provided in connection with the Program and other financial incentives is roughly equivalent to the relevant expenses related to the collection and storage of that Personal Information. Any difference in price or benefits provided to customers who participate in the Program or other financial incentives is reasonably related to the value of the Personal Information provided, taking account of the fact that the primary purpose of our financial incentives is to offer discounts and other benefits to our loyal customers.
