WEBSITE PRIVACY GUIDELINES
Information About our Privacy Guidelines and Internet Usage On our websites, we may offer features, like games and colouring books, which do not require a child to provide any personal information. We collect only limited personal information from children 12 and under (like their email addresses) to respond to their online requests. For example, we may collect a child's email address in order to send the child a screen saver, but we promptly delete the email address from our system. Or, we may collect a child's email address in order to enter the child in a contest. We may also ask a child to provide an email address of a parent so we can notify the parent to seek consent. We will not collect more detailed information from a child 12 and younger, such as a postal address or a telephone number, without the consent of a parent or guardian. McDonald's will not condition a child's participation in any online activity on the child's disclosure of more personal information than is reasonably necessary to participate in that activity. Personal information collected from children is used solely by McDonald's or other entities that provide technical, fulfillment or other services to McDonald's. For example, such entities may provide services, such as, improving our websites, fulfilling requests or administering contests. Personal information collected from children is not sold or transferred to third parties. We urge parents to regularly monitor and supervise their children's on-line activities. In order to review any personal information we have about your child or to ask us to delete that information or to stop further use of the information, please contact us. Does the McDonald's website use "cookies" for tracking purposes? "Cookies" are pieces of information that a website transfers to an individual's hard drive for record-keeping purposes. Cookies allow the website to remember important information that will make your use of the site more convenient. Like most websites, McDonald's uses cookies for a variety of purposes in order to improve your on-line experience. For example, we track the total number of visitors to our website on an anonymous aggregate basis. We may also employ cookies so that we remember you when you return to the website, to facilitate the purchase of merchandise online, to administer certain contests and sweepstakes, and to help customize your McDonald's web experience. We may associate personal information with a cookie file in those instances. Use the options in your web browser if you do not wish to receive a cookie or if you wish to set your browser to notify you when you receive a cookie.
