FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

The following Frequently Asked Questions explain how we collect, protect and use Personal Information obtained through the Services. We remain committed to ensuring that any Personal Information supplied by our customers or otherwise generated by our business activities is collected and processed fairly and lawfully.


WHAT TYPES OF INFORMATION DOES AU BON PAIN COLLECT THROUGH THE SERVICES?

We collect several types of information through our Services. We collect “Personal Information” which is information that can be used to identify you individually, such as your name, ID card number, email address, address, telephone number, username and password (for account administration), financial account information and other payment information (that you submit to us for order processing), and additional personal information necessary for the administration of certain promotional events (for example, month and day of birth). We also collect “Non-Personal Information”, which is information about you that does not itself identify you individually. We may combine NonPersonal Information with Personal Information and, in those circumstance, we will treat the combined information as Personal Information.

We collect “Aggregate Information”, which is information about use of our Services, such as pages visited on our Site. The information we collect depends on what Services you use. In certain circumstances, we may also collect financial information about customers from third parties to enable us to assess risks in granting credit terms.


HOW DOES AU BON PAIN OBTAIN PERSONAL INFORMATION?

As you use our Services, we collect certain information about you and the Services you use. The information we collect falls into three different categories: (1) information you give us; (2) information we collect from you automatically when you use our Services; and (3) information we collect from other sources (such as franchisees and suppliers).

Information You Provide. We collect information you give us when you use our Services. Some examples of using our “services” are when you visit one of our cafés, visit our Site, buy an Au Bon Pain product online, join the Au Bon Pain eMember or Privilege card or participate in a survey or promotion. The information you give us may include your first or last name, username, password, email address, address, location information, telephone number, financial account information such as a credit card number, birthday, and any other information you choose to give us.

(ii) gathered through marketing events;
(iii) from registrations on the Site or through other Services and
(iv) from contests we may conduct.

These features may include technologies called “plug-ins” and “widgets.” Plug-ins create a direct link between two websites, and widgets are interactive mini-programs that provide other companies’ services on our websites. When you link to the Au Bon Pain Services through any social networking or third party sites, applications or services, you are bound by the privacy policy of the social network or third-party site, application or service, and we do not control and are not responsible for the privacy practices of such sites. If you are concerned about the way a social network is tracking your activity, please contact the social network or review its privacy policy.


DO THE SERVICES USE “COOKIES”?

We and others may use a variety of technologies to collect information about your device and use of our Services. These technologies include cookies and web beacons. “Cookies” are bits of data and small files that are stored on your device’s hard drive either for the duration of your visit or for a fixed period of time. This information is used to identify and store the user’s preferences. Like most websites, our Services automatically gather information about the areas of our Services that are visited, and how the user interacts with our Services. The data collected is anonymous and is not associated with your Personal Information, (except when you are using an area of the Services where you have entered your Personal Information to participate in one of our online programs). We mainly use cookies for the following purposes:

• Some cookies are required to allow you to access and use our Services. Without these cookies, our Services do not work properly.

• Some cookies help us analyze and estimate traffic on our Services. They show us how visitors interact with our Services, whether there are any errors, which pages are not used often, which pages take a long time to load, which pages users tend to visit and in what order. These cookies do not collect any information that could identify you and are only used to help us to improve our Services and understand user interests.

• Some cookies remember information to save you the trouble of entering information every time you visit or use a particular website. For example, a cookie may remember your username to save you time when you log in to your account.

• Some cookies are used to tailor your experience on our Services by controlling the promotions, advertisements and other marketing messages that may appear when you visit or use our Services and help us learn which Services you are using and how you are accessing information about us. We may use this information to personalize your visit to a Services or to send you relevant promotions.

• Web beacons are small, transparent images that are embedded in web pages, applications, and emails that are sometimes called “clear gifs,” “single pixel gifs”, “page tags” or “web bugs.” We use web beacons to track the web pages you visit, to test the effectiveness of our marketing, and to find out if an email has been opened and acted on.

Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can change your browser settings to give you the choice to accept a cookie or reject cookies altogether. More information about cookies you can see https://www.allaboutcookies.org/manage-cookies/


HOW DOES AU BON PAIN PROTECT THE PERSONAL INFORMATION IT HOLDS?

Au Bon Pain protects your information using technical, physical, and administrative security measures to reduce the risk of loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure or modification of your information. Some of our safeguards include firewalls, data encryption, physical access controls, and administrative informational controls. When you transmit highly sensitive information (such as a credit card number) through our Site or in one of our mobile applications, we encrypt the transmission of that information using the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol or we use payment service via bank or trusted third parties with their security protocol. We will also actively investigate and cooperate with law enforcement agencies any allegations of abuse or violation of system or network security. While we have employed security technologies and procedures to assist safeguarding your Personal Information, no system or network can be guaranteed to be 100% secure.

Personal and NonPersonal Information may be transferred to and stored on computers and servers located in Thailand and other countries located outside your country of residence. The laws of these countries may not offer a level of privacy protection for Personal Information as great as that offered in your country of residence. Further, Personal Information might be disclosed to governments or law enforcement agencies in these countries where required by law. By agreeing to this Privacy Policy, using the Services, and/or sharing your Personal Information with us, you consent to such transfer.


DO I HAVE CONTROL OVER INFORMATION THAT AU BON PAIN COLLECTS?

You can make choices about the information we collect about you:

• When you use a smart phone or other mobile device to access our Services, we may collect information about your physical location only if (a) “location services” for the mobile application is enabled; or (b) the permissions in the mobile device allow communication of this information. If you do not want us to collect your location information, you can opt out of sharing this information by changing the relevant preferences and permissions in your mobile device.

• If you want to reject cookies, you must take action to select the appropriate settings in your browser. Each browser’s cookie control is a little different, but the most common browsers (Internet Explorer, Chrome, Firefox, and Safari) have a preference or option you can select so the browser notifies you if a site wants to set a cookie and typically provides an option to accept or reject the cookie before the cookie is set. If you choose to remove or reject cookies, it will affect many features or services on our Services.

• Some newer web browsers have a “Do Not Track” preference that transmits a “Do Not Track” header to the websites you visit with information indicating that you do not want your activity to be tracked. We currently do not respond to browser “Do Not Track” signals.


DO YOU COLLECT PERSONAL INFORMATION FROM CHILDREN?

The Services are not directed toward children under the age of 15, and we do not knowingly collect any Personal Information from children under the age of 15. If you are between the ages of 15 and 18, please ensure that you use the Services with the permission of a parent or guardian. You must be 18 to use some portions of the Services.
