Bashas' Supermarkets is deeply committed to protecting the privacy of Internet users who visit our web site, Bashas.com. The following privacy policy provides information about our practices for customer privacy and data protection. We encourage you to review each of these policies prior to using the services and information provided on Bashas.com.

PRIVACY POLICY:

1. What information is collected and how is it used?
Bashas.com collects information from you and your computer so we can make our services easier and better to use. We collect several types of information from our visitors.

a.      Anonymous Information: This type of information is collected on all visitors to our site but is not used to identify individual customers. Anonymous information includes data such as the number and frequency of customers using various services on our web site. We use this information to improve our hardware and software that runs our site.

b.      IP Addresses: If you contact us through our web site, we may use your Internet Service Provider's address and the manufacturer of the web browser to help diagnose problems with our server and to monitor use and traffic throughout our web site. This information helps us improve the content, products, and services that we offer our web site visitors. IP addresses are not linked to identifiable information.

c.       Cookies: We use cookies in the home shopping area of our web site. A cookie is a unique number that is provided to your web browser file the first time you visit the Bashas' Groceries On The Go section of our site. These unique numbers are used to keep track of your shopping cart, remember your user name and password and customize the content you see when you return to that area of our site. A cookie is a small text file that contains a unique identification number stored on your computer. Cookies by themselves cannot be used to find out the identity of any user. This unique identification number automatically identifies your browser - but not you - to our computers whenever you interact on our site. Cookies only contain information that the server computer "knew" in the first place, and can only be read by the computer that placed them. For instance, Yahoo! utilizes cookies, but Bashas.com servers can't read their contents nor can Yahoo!'s servers read ours. Cookies are an essential part of how the Internet works today, and allow server computers to recognize your computer's browser when you return. If you have ever gone to a Web page that automatically provides personalized content without you having to "sign in," such as your own stock portfolio, this is almost certainly being accomplished with a cookie. Since cookies are only text files, they cannot "run" on your computer and have no ability to search your computer for other information, or transmit it to anyone.

d.      Personally Identifiable Information: Bashas.com will not sell, trade, rent, or otherwise provide your personal information to any third party. Certain registration forms and on-line applications require users to give us personal information such as name, address, Bashas' Thank You Card number, e-mail address, or other personal identification numbers. We may also collect this information in connection with surveys, contests, purchases, or other interactions with you. We do not collect this information unless you give it to us. Bashas.com may provide aggregated statistics about our sales, traffic patterns, and related site information to reputable third party partners, but these statistics will not include any personally identifiable information of individual customers.

e.       Financial Information: If you purchase products from Bashas.com, you may be required to fill out a registration form. In addition to name, address and contact information, your order may require that you provide financial information such as credit card numbers or account information. This financial information is only used to bill the user for products or services they have agreed to purchase. It is not disclosed or sold to any other party.

2. Is my financial information secure?
Bashas.com has security measures in place to protect the loss, misuse, and alteration of information under our control. Any time you provide us with financial information, we offer the use of a secure server, which encrypts all of the information you provide and protects it from unauthorized access.

3. Do I have to provide personally identifiable information?
No, if you choose not to register or provide personal information, you can still access most of the Bashas.com site. However, you will not be able to access the areas that require registration, use the services that require applications, or purchase the products and services online that require financial information. We will not collect personally identifiable information unless you choose to give it to us. If you choose to provide your personal information to Bashas.com you consent to the collection and use of this information as detailed above.
