General
The Coca-Cola Company (the "Company") respects the privacy of every individual who visits our websites. This Privacy Policy outlines the information the Company may collect and how we may use that information.
We encourage you to read this policy before using this website (the "Site"). By using the Site, you agree to the terms and conditions of this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to the terms and conditions of this Privacy Policy, please do not use this Site.
Personal Data
The Coca-Cola Company will not collect any personally-identifiable information about you (e.g., your name, address, telephone number or email address ("personal data") through our websites unless you have provided it to us voluntarily. You ordinarily are not required to register or provide personal information in order to access Company websites, although certain Company websites and sections of our websites may require registration. In addition, if you choose to contact us to ask a question we will collect your personal information so that we can respond to your question. If you do not want your personal data collected, please do not submit it to us.
When you do provide us with personal data, we may use that information in the following ways, unless stated otherwise: we may store and process that information to better understand your needs and how we can improve our products and services; we (or a fulfillment house or other third party on our behalf in connection with a promotion) may use that information to facilitate your participation in a promotion or to contact you; and/or we may provide other third parties with aggregate - but not individual - information about visitors to or users of our sites. We also will disclose personal information if required by law, including compliance with warrants, subpoenas or other legal process. We do not now and do not intend to sell, rent or market personal data about you to third parties.
Special Note for Parents
The site you are visiting is one of The Coca-Cola Company general audience websites. From time to time a specific website will be governed by a specific privacy policy rather than the general audience privacy policy and will have specific provisions regarding children and privacy.
Children
The Coca-Cola Company has no intention of collecting any personal data from individuals under thirteen years of age. Where appropriate, The Coca-Cola Company will specifically instruct children not to submit such information on our websites and/or will take reasonable steps to ensure parental consent to such submission.
Parents should be aware that The Coca-Cola Company's Privacy Policy will govern our use of personal data, but that information which is voluntarily given by children - or others - in chat sessions, email exchanges, bulletin boards or the like may be used by other parties to generate unsolicited mail. The Coca-Cola Company encourages all parents to instruct their children in the safe and responsible use of their personal data while using the Internet.

Examples of this type of information include the type of Internet Browser you are using, the type of computer operating system you are using and the domain name of the website from which you linked to our site.
