of Heineken UK. Heineken UK Ltd ("Company") respects your privacy
and recognizes your desire to safeguard your personal information.
The Privacy Policy and Terms of Use set forth herein are designed to
inform you about what kind of personal information is collected on this
website and how it is used, to inform you of the conditions of use of the
site (including users who are also contributors of video content) and
to maintain the security of this website ("Website"). Please read the
terms and conditions set out below carefully before using this website

Privacy Policy
At S&NPC, we are committed to protecting your personal information that you share with us through the Internet.
This statement sets forth our privacy policy regarding information you provide to us through the use of our Website. This statement also provides you with information on how to prevent your personal information from being collected
or shared when you visit our website, respond to our web-based promotions or send us an e-mail.
The Information We Gather
We collect information about you through two principal means: through technology (for example IP addresses and cookies) and through your voluntary submission of information.
Non-personally Identifiable Information
Using technology, our website can collect information about the type
of browser you are using, your operating system and your IP address
information using technology. An IP address is a number that is automatically
assigned to your computer and is recognised by web technology whenever
you are surfing the Internet. None of this information is considered personally
identifiable information. As technology evolves, additional methods of
information gathering may be used such as 'pixel tags' (also known as 'web
beacons' and 'clear gifs').
We also use cookies and other technologies to collect the above non-
personally identifiable information for a variety of purposes, such as to
improve the design and content of our website and to enable us to provide a
more personalised experience when you browse the Internet. Most industry-
standard web browsers have an option that allows you to turn off all cookies
or have your computer inform you each time that a request to place a cookie
is being made. If you turn cookies off (or refuse to accept a request to place
a cookie), you may not have access to some features on our web sites and
some of our services, such as purchasing S&NPC or being automatically
recognised, may not function properly.
We may provide aggregate non-personally identifiable information to third parties (such as marketers, ad server companies and advertisers) that make
use of general customer data. We may also share that information with
concessionaires aboard our vessels and other third parties.
S&NPC is not liable for information that is inaccurate due to technical defects in software used on our website, whether induced by our systems or by software provided by third parties.
Personally Identifiable Information
You can use the majority of our website without being required to divulge any
personally identifiable information to us. To participate in or use some of the
activities available on our website (such as the free Microsoft Word menu
templates) you may be required to provide certain personally identifiable
information (such as your name and e-mail address). In addition, in
connection with some activities, such as purchasing S&NPC printed menu's,
we collect additional personally identifiable information such as your date of
birth, street and billing address and credit card number.
When corresponding with you via e-mail, we may use a variety of
technologies, such as 'clear gifs' or 'web beacons', to let us know, among
other things, whether you received and opened our e-mail. The clear gif
included in the e-mail may establish a cookie on your system that further
allows us to tailor information to fit your personal interests.
The term 'third parties' does not include any subsidiaries or affiliates of
S&NPC, service providers or vendors acting on S&NPC's behalf or travel
agents or the purchaser of substantially all of the assets of S&NPC or a
subsidiary or affiliate of S&NPC. Our policy is to require that third parties keep
that information confidential.
Your credit card number is used to process your request for products or
services and will not be shared with third parties that are not involved with the
transaction.
How We Use The Information Gathered
- 1. To provide the products, services or membership benefits you request;
- 2. To improve the content of our site and enhance your experience;
- 3. To ensure proper billing;
- 4. To measure consumer demand or interest in various offerings; and
- 5. For marketing and promotional purposes, including to provide you with
information about products and services offered by S&NPC and its
subsidiaries and affiliates.
How Do I Tell S&NPC That I Don't Want to Be Contacted or Change My Personally Identifiable Information?
Our website sometimes provides you the opportunity to opt-in to receive
communications from us at the point where we request information from you.
You always have the option of removing your name from our e-mail mailing
list(s) so that you will not receive further e-mail promotional communications
from us. In order to ensure immediate removal from any list, it is best to
follow the specific instructions outlined within the communications you

Links and Third Parties
Our website often provides links to resources that we believe may be useful.
These links will lead you to websites operated by third parties that operate
under different privacy policies. We encourage you to review those privacy
policies, as we have no control over information you may submit to those third
parties.
Our website may use third parties, such as ad server companies, to present
or serve advertisements that you may see on our website. Our website may
also include advertisements placed by third parties. Our privacy policy does
not cover any information collected by those third parties nor does it cover
how they may use such information.
How Do We Protect Your Information?
Security for all personally identifiable information is extremely important to
us. To prevent unauthorised access, maintain data accuracy and ensure the
correct usage of information, we monitor and adjust our physical, electronic
and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we
collect online.
Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee that data transmitted over the Internet
will always be secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personally
identifiable information, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any
information you transmit to us or from our online products and services and
you do so at your own risk. Upon receipt of your transmission, we strive to
ensure the security of that information in our systems.
