DDW collects personal information and non-personal information. DDW collects information that may personally identify you, such as your name, email address, company name, title, street address, phone number, and information that permits DDW to contact you. If you request a sample, DDW collects your name, email address, title, company name, phone number, street address, and any information you submit about the application on which you are working (e.g. bakery, beverage, confectionary). For purposes of this Privacy Policy, personal information includes information that identifies, relates to, describes, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could be reasonably linked to you. DDW collects some information that is about you individually, but does not identify you, and collects information about your internet connection, your device used to access the Site, and your use of the Site. If DDW combines that information with personal information, it will treat it as non-personal information.

DDW collects information from and about you directly when you provide such information to DDW and automatically when you use the Site.

(a) Information You Provide. DDW collects information you provide when you make inquiries using the “contact” form, request a sample, or otherwise correspond with DDW. The information collected may include anything submitted by you to the Site and may include copies of the correspondence.

The information DDW collects automatically may include personal information or DDW may associate it with personal information it collects in other ways or receives from third parties. If DDW associates such data with personal information, DDW will treat it as personal information, but if such data is not associated with other personal information, DDW will treat it as non-personal information.
