Thanks for your interest in Made In Cookware! We value and respect your privacy, and the goal of this Privacy Policy is to be transparent about data we collect about you and how it’s used and shared. The Made In Cookware Privacy Policy (Privacy Policy) describes the procedures and associated policies we use to collect, share, disclose, and protect your Personal Information when you visit our site and make a purchase from us. Used collectively, “Made In” refers herein to Made In Cookware, Made In, and Boston Foundry, Inc.

We do not receive monetary compensation for data that we do receive from you. However, we may share your data with 3rd party service providers to facilitate your purchases of our products, to better understand our customer base, and to understand our marketing effectiveness. Data sharing is described in detail below.

Non-Personal Utilization Data

As you interact with our website we collect non-personal utilization data, such as pages visited and products viewed. This data is collected in order for us to improve the products that we offer you. We use cookies to help keep track of items you put into your shopping cart including when you have abandoned your cart and this information is used to determine when to send cart reminder messages via SMS.

Definition of Personal Information

“Personal Information” means your personally-identifiable information such as your name, email or mailing address, phone number, and other information that can be used to identify you.

Personal Information We Collect

We collect contact and financial information directly from you. We also collect audio and video information and other information (e.g., product reviews) directly from you. In addition, we may collect information about you from third parties.

This covers the various types of Personal Information we have collected, by visitor type, over the preceding 12 months. Data collection is progressive, meaning that data collected for Made In Customers is additive to that collected for Visitors and Subscribers.

How We Collect and Utilize your Personal Information

Data Sharing for Website Visitors and Email Subscribers

These third party partners include payments processors, warehouse operations, customer support platforms, third party marketing partners for commercial purposes, and shipping companies. In addition, we may share anonymized data with 3rd party partners to better understand our customer base or improve the products we offer for sale. Unless otherwise noted in this Privacy Policy, we do not authorize our third party partners to use your data for any purpose other than delivering the services they are contractually engaged to deliver for us. The above excludes text messaging originator opt-in data and consent; this information will not be shared with any third parties.

Third Party Policies

You may be able to access third-party websites and other tools and services or products via a link, or via our other tools, including purchase financing.
