How We Use Your Information
When you supply Personal Information at this web site or offline, it will be used to create an account or to place and deliver an order. It may also be used to contact you regarding other products, or Golden Seafood, Inc. related information, which may be of interest to you. At any time, however, you may opt out of such future contact. (See "Who to Contact" below.)
We may also make the personal information you supplied available to other entities affiliated with Golden Seafood, Inc., including, but not limited to our corporate affiliates, licensor, affiliated and unaffiliated service providers to the extent necessary to conduct the business of this Site, service, fulfill or deliver your order, process your payment, or communicate with you in connection with your order or questions.
We may combine your zip code or area code number you supply online or offline with information about your order and past purchase history available from our records and other sources. This information will be used to make our future marketing efforts more efficient. This information may also be shared when working with outside marketing companies. This information will allow us to better direct promotional and special offers from Golden Seafood.
