This is a WhiteWave Foods Company website. The WhiteWave Food Company strives to maintain the highest standards of decency, fairness and integrity in all our operations. Likewise, WhiteWave Foods is dedicated to protecting our customers’, consumers’ and online visitors’ privacy on our website.

Personal Information

The WhiteWave Foods Company collects personally identifiable information from the visitors to our website only on a voluntary basis. Personal information collected on a voluntary basis includes name, postal address, email address, company name and telephone number.

This information is collected if you request information from us, participate in a contest or sweepstakes, or sign up to join our email list. The information collected is internally reviewed, used to improve the content of our website, notify our visitors of updates, and respond to visitor inquiries. Once information is reviewed, it is discarded or stored in our files. We will notify you about material changes in the collection of personally identifiable information by placing a notice on our site.

Personal information received from any visitor will be used only for internal purposes and will not be sold or provided to third parties.

This website is directed to adults; it is not directed to children under the age of 13. We operate our site in compliance with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act, and will not knowingly collect or use personal information from anyone under 13 years of age.

If you supply us with your postal address online, you will receive only the information you requested. We do not sell or provide your postal address to third parties. WhiteWave Foods is dedicated to protecting the privacy of our customers, consumers and online visitors. We will seek to obtain written or active email consent from you if we are going to be using the information collected from you in a manner different from that stated at the time of collection.

Non-Personal Information


In some cases, we may collect information about you that is not personally identifiable. For example, our website may automatically recognize the domain name of the website, or the advertisement, which you clicked-through to reach our site (for example, aol.com, if you are connecting from an America Online account), but not the email address of visitors to our website.

The information collected is used solely for internal review and not shared with other organizations for commercial purposes.

Release of Information About Us


In order to improve our business, we may buy or sell a company, or one or more of the companies in our corporate family may merge with or be acquired by another company. If we sell a business, we would probably transfer some or all of your information as a part of the sale, in order that the service being provided to you may continue.

In that event, you will receive notice, through our website, of that change in control and practices, and we will make reasonable efforts to ensure that the purchaser honors any opt-out requests you might make of us.

We may also release information when we believe it is necessary and appropriate to comply with applicable laws or to protect the rights, property or safety of WhiteWave Foods, our employees, customers, website visitors, or others.
