This Privacy Policy applies to the use of Home Brands USA and any related sub-domain names (the “Site”). By using the Site you agree to comply with and be bound by the policies detailed below. If you do not agree with this Privacy Policy, please exit the Site.
We highly value your privacy, and this policy is designed to assist you in understanding the personal information we collect about you, why we collect it, how we use it, and when we share it with third parties. The following outlines Home Brands USA's Privacy Policy, and details the measures we have taken to safeguard and protect your privacy.
Electronic Communication
When you send an email or submit support inquiries to the Site you are using electronic communication, and consent to receiving electronic communications from us in response. Home Brands USA may communicate with you by email, and by updating or posting notices on the Site. You agree that all agreements, notices, disclosures and other communications that Home Brands USA provides to you electronically satisfy any legal requirement that such communications be in writing. All communications with Home Brands USA become the property of Home Brands USA.
While visiting the Site you have the opportunity to opt-in and receive communications from us. In this case, we ask the visitor for his or her email address, name, and additional information as necessary. These communications will include our product promotions and any other information that we feel may be pertinent to the visitor. You may opt out of receiving any, or all, of these communications by emailing us at the support email address listed on the Contact Us page, or by clicking on the unsubscribe link in any email we send to you.
Use of Personal Information
In order to provide a better shopping experience, Home Brands USA collects and stores your personal information when you: (i) register for an account; (ii) sign up for special deals notifications such as discounts and exclusive offers; (iii) enter a contest or promotion on our site; (iv) sign up for newsletters; or (v) make a purchase. All collected information is stored on a secure server and includes, but is not limited to name, address, telephone number, email address, birth date, purchase history, and certain credit card information.
Our system may also gather information about the pages and areas you visit on the Site, as well as the IP address you use to connect to the Site. This data is only used internally to improve your shopping experience and customer service, personalize the marketing materials you receive from Home Brands USA or its partners (which can be opted out of), and prevent fraud on your account. We may use your purchasing preferences at the Site to make other marketing offers to you. You can opt-out from receiving such offers.
Home Brands USA uses a registration feature to allow users to become members at no cost. This helps us speed up your purchasing process on the Site, as well as provide you with promotional information for the products you may be shopping for. You can opt-out from receiving such offers using an ‘Unsubscribe’ option provided in the promotional messages.
Third Party Usage of Information
We do not share any of your personal data with any third parties other than the consultants and service providers that help Home Brands USA bring you the products and services we offer. However, we maintain confidentiality agreements with these parties to protect your private information, and require that it only be used to perform the obligations of their agreement with us. We use SSL (Secure Socket Layer) connections to protect your sensitive data like the Credit Card information you enter during your purchases on the Site.
The personal information we collect may be shared in an aggregate or statistical form, without including personal identifiers, to provide us with specific shopping trends on the Site. This statistical information helps us improve our offering in the same way that other companies change their catalog based on what sells best.
Log Files and Cookies
A cookie is a small piece of information sent by a web site that is saved on your hard drive by your computer's browser. The information in the cookies lets us trace your "click stream" activity (i.e., the paths taken by visitors to homebrandsusa.com, how specific pages are visited, and what features are used). However, none of this information is associated with you as an individual as it is measured anonymously and only in the aggregate. Cookies do not capture your individual email address or any private information about you.
Home Brands USA may use third-party advertising companies to serve ads on the Site, as well as third party companies to provide tracking and analysis of information collected from visitors to the Site. These companies may employ cookies and action tags (also known as single pixel gifs or web beacons) to measure advertising effectiveness. Any information that these third parties collect via cookies and action tags is completely anonymous, and Home Brands USA reserves the right to provide that information and data to these third parties.
Children's Privacy
Our website is not meant for children, and we do not collect any personal information from children under the age of 13. We will remove from our files any personally identifiable information of anyone we discover to be under thirteen years old. Our online contests and promotions are restricted to entrants who are at least 18 years old.
California Privacy Rights
Under California Civil Code sections 1798.83-1798.84, California residents are entitled to ask us for a notice describing what categories of personal customer information we share with third parties or corporate affiliates for those third parties or corporate affiliates’ direct marketing purposes.

If you are a California resident and would like a copy of this notice, please submit a written request to the following address: Home Brands USA, 331 1st Street, PO Box 303, Carlstadt New Jersey 07072.
