55 South respects your privacy. Accordingly, it has adopted the following privacy policy. This policy notifies you of:

what personally identifiable information of yours is collected from you through our Website; the organization collecting the information; how the information is used; with whom the information may be shared; what choices are available to you regarding collection, use and distribution of the information; the kind of procedures we employ in an effort to hinder the unauthorized access, deletion, alteration, use or disclosure of information you provide to 3st; and how you can correct any inaccuracies in the information you provide to us.

As we operate internationally, and our computer systems are currently based in the United States, your personal data will be processed by us in the U.S. where data protection and privacy regulations may not offer the same level of protection as in other parts of the world, such as the European Union.

USE OF COOKIES

Cookies are pieces of information that a website transfers to any individual’s hard drive for record-keeping purposes. Cookies make web-surfing easier for you by saving your passwords, purchases, and preferences while you’re at our site. The use of cookies is an industry standard—you’ll find them at most major websites.

By showing how and when guests use the site, cookies help us see which areas are popular and which are not. Many improvements and updates to the site are based on such data as total number of visitors and pages viewed. This information is most easily tracked with cookies. If you accept the first tracking cookie from martinsbbqjoint.com, you won’t be offered as many afterwards.

Most browsers are initially set to accept cookies. If you’d prefer, you can set yours to refuse cookies or to alert you when cookies are being sent. However, it is possible that some parts of the site, like the shopping areas, may not function properly if you do so.

ABOUT IP ADDRESSES

55 South collects IP addresses for the purposes of system administration and to report aggregate information to our advertisers, if applicable. An IP address is a number that’s automatically assigned to your computer whenever you’re surfing the web. Web servers—the big computers that “serve” up web pages—automatically identify your computer by its IP address. When guests request pages from martinsbbqjoint.com, our servers log their IP addresses. We do not link IP addresses to anything personally identifiable. This means that a user’s session will be logged, but the user remains anonymous to us.

SECURITY

55 South employs reasonable measures to maintain all personally identifiable information provided by you on computer servers in a controlled and secured environment in an effort to hinder unauthorized access, loss, alteration, use or disclosure of such information. However, the nature of the Internet is such that information may be transmitted over networks without appropriate security measures and may be accessed, deleted, altered, used or disclosed by unauthorized persons.

Because of the international nature of the services and products provided by the Website and the nature of 55 South business, personal data may, subject to applicable law, be transferred internationally throughout the world (details of which are available on request by emailing or calling us as provided above) for the purposes described above. This may mean that personal data are transferred to countries which do not have laws or regulations which protect personal data, such as the United States, where the servers for the Websites are located. We use reasonable measures to limit the disclosure of the data you provide to us only to certain staff within 55 South and its affiliates (i.e. staff whose job it is to process your inquiries and survey answers or otherwise to administer the Website, and those staff involved in the provision of 55 South services and products which may be of interest to you) and to require that they process the data only for the purposes identified in this Privacy Policy and Rules.
