If you use any third-party features available on our website, such as Social Networks, Widgets and Plug-ins, it may result in information being collected or shared between Saison and the third party. (e.g. if you use Facebook’s “Like” feature, Facebook may register that action and may post that information on Facebook) 

We may share your information when we partner with another company to offer or provide products, services, contests, or promotions to our customers.
 
We may share your name, postal address, and shopping history with like-minded organizations whose privacy policies meet the Direct Marketing Association's privacy standards, for their direct mail marketing purposes. We do not share email addresses for such purposes. We also do not share personal information about customers who only browse, email comments, request email updates, or who purchase only Saison products. 
 
We may share information about you, if necessary, in our good faith judgment, to comply with laws or regulations or in response to a valid subpoena, order, or government request, or to protect the rights of Saison Global, LLC or others.
        
In addition, if you choose to participate in any third-party scrip, loyalty, or similar program in which Saison is a participating vendor, and you authorize Saison or our credit card processor to provide information about your purchases to the company administering the program, we will share your personal information with that program. Scrip programs allow you to instruct us to divert a percentage of the amount you spend on Saison purchases to participating schools and other non-profit organizations. Loyalty programs allow you to earn "points" on purchases at Saison, which you may then use toward certain rewards offered by the loyalty programs in which you participate. The information you authorize us to disclose to the third-party scrip or loyalty program may include your credit card number and the date and amount of your purchase, and may also include your name and other information you have asked us to provide. Please note that once we disclose this information, the scrip or loyalty company may use and share it with others in accordance with its own privacy policy. You should review these policies carefully, as we have no control over them. In the unlikely event of a sale or merger of Saison Global, LLC our customers' personal information and other information we have collected as described in this policy may be among the transferred business assets.
