Bagels and Brussels LLC (“we” or “us”) respects your privacy and is committed to
protecting it through our compliance with this Privacy Notice. This Privacy Notice
applies to your access and use of our website, located at bagelsandbrussels.com, as well
as our branded pages on social media services (collectively, the “Site”). This Privacy
Notice is incorporated into and is subject to our Terms of Use (the “Terms”).
This Privacy Notice only applies to information collected on the Site and is not intended
to fully describe our privacy policies. It does not, for example, apply to information
collected offline or through any website operated by any third party, even if it is linked
to or accessible from the Site. The Privacy Notice describes the information that we
gather from you, how we use and disclose your information, and the steps we take to
protect your information. By using the Site, you consent to the privacy practices
described in this Privacy Notice.


1. The information that we collect about you and how we collect it:
We collect several types of information from and about users of the Site, which may
include certain “Personal Information” (information that identifies, relates to,
describes, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked,
directly or indirectly, with a particular person or household, such as name, e-mail
address, mailing address, telephone number, date of birth, financial account
information, IP address, and other similar types of information), as well as other
information from or about you, such as information about your internet connection,
equipment you use to access the Site and usage details.
We collect this information directly from you when you provide it to us, automatically as

To the extent permitted by local law, all content submitted to us or third parties in
connection with your use of the Site may be retained or used by us indefinitely.
            B. Information we automatically collect:
When you visit the Site, or use a third-party website that interacts with our Site, we may
automatically receive and record certain information from your computer, web browser
or mobile device, including your IP address or other device address or ID, web browser

sites that you visit before or after visiting the Site, the pages you view on the Site, your
actions on the Site, and the dates and times that you visit, access, or use the Site.
When you use the Site, we may send one or more cookies (which are small text files
containing a string of alphanumeric characters) to your computer or mobile device, to

to decline our cookies if your browser permits, although doing so may interfere with
your ability to use the Site or certain features of the Site. We may also use Google
Analytics or a similar service that uses cookies to help us analyze how users use the Site.
That use may be subject to the Google Analytics Terms of Use and Google Privacy Policy.

Personal Information that we collect or you provide as described in this Privacy Notice:
● To our third-party service providers to provide website development, hosting,
data storage, maintenance, credit card processing and other services for us.
● If required to do so by law or in the good-faith belief that such action is necessary

any other purposes for which you provide such information or for any other
purpose with your consent.

4. Your Choices:
● You may, of course, decline to share certain information with us, in which case we
may not be able to provide to you some of the features and functionality of the
Site.
● Once you have registered for an account, you may update, correct, or delete your
profile information and preferences at any time by accessing your account
preferences page through the Site.
● If you do not wish to receive email offers or newsletters from us, you can opt out
of receiving email information from us (except for emails related to the
completion of your registration, change of password and other communications
essential to your transactions through the Site) by using the unsubscribe process
at the bottom of the email. Should you opt out, we will promptly honor your
request, though we may retain certain information you submit (including in

backups or archives) for a variety of purposes, including analytics, the prevention
of fraud or abuse and compliance with our legal or regulatory obligations.

5. Our Commitment to Children’s Privacy:
Protecting the privacy of young children is especially important. For that reason, we do
not allow children under 13 years of age to use the Site, we do not knowingly collect or
maintain information from persons under 13 years of age, and no part of the Site is
directed to persons under 13 years of age. If you are under 13 years of age, then please
do not use or access the Site at any time or in any manner. If you are a parent or
guardian and discover that your child under 13 years of age has provided us with
information, please alert us at bagelsandbrussels@gmail.com.


6. Our Commitment to Data Security:
We use certain physical, managerial, and technical safeguards that are designed to
protect the integrity and security of your Personal Information; however, no security
measures are perfect or impenetrable, so we cannot ensure or warrant the security of
any information you transmit to us through the Site, and you do so at your own risk. We
also cannot guarantee that your information may not be accessed, disclosed, altered, or
destroyed by breach of any of our physical, technical, or managerial safeguards. We are
not responsible for circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures
contained on the Site. Even after removal, copies of information that you have posted
may remain viewable in cached and archived pages or if other users have copied or
stored such information.


7. Visitors from Outside the United States:
This Site is controlled and operated by Bagels and Brussels LLC in the United States. If
you choose to access the Site from outside the United States, you acknowledge that you
will be transferring your information, including Personal Information, outside of those
regions to the United States for storage and processing, as necessary to provide to you
the products and services available through the Site. Where required, we comply with
applicable legal frameworks relating to the collection, storage, use, and transfer of
personal information.


8. Limitation of Liability:
By accessing this Site and/or providing us with Personal Information and other data,
you expressly and unconditionally release and hold us harmless from any and all
liability for any injuries, loss, or damage of any kind arising from or in connection with
the use and/or misuse of such information. In addition, while we take efforts to ensure
the proper and appropriate use of data by our service providers that may receive your
information from us, we are not responsible for any injuries, loss, or damage of any kind

arising from or in connection with the use and/or misuse of your information caused by
those service providers.


9. Changes and Updates to this Privacy Notice:
We reserve the right to make changes to this Privacy Notice at any time. We will notify
you about significant changes in the way we treat your information, including by placing
a prominent notice on the Site or by sending you an email so that you can choose
whether to continue using the Site. Please revisit this page periodically to stay aware of
any changes to this Privacy Notice.


10. Do Not Track Disclosures
Third parties such as advertising networks, analytics providers, and widget providers
may collect information about your online activities over time and across different
websites when you access or use our services. Currently, various browsers offer a “Do
Not Track” option, but there is no standard for how “Do Not Track” should work on
commercial websites. Due to lack of such standards, the Site does not respond to Do
Not Track consumer browser settings.
