PROTECTING YOUR PRIVACY
Darey Brands (“Darey Brands”, “we”, “us”, or “our”), maker of Green Valley lactose-free dairy products, operates the website www.greenvalleylactosefree.com (the “Site”). This privacy policy (“Policy”) applies only to our Site and not to outside websites. While our Site may contain links to external sites like Facebook, Instagram and TikTok, we encourage you to review their third-party privacy policies to understand how they protect your privacy.
We always strive to operate on the principles of respect and fairness, and we are committed to keeping your Personal Information secure by protecting your privacy and the confidentiality of your Personal Information. Periodically we update or modify this Privacy Policy and will indicate the date of the last update on the top of this page. We therefore encourage you to check in by visiting this page from time to time to see if there are changes. By using our Site, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this Policy.
WHAT PERSONAL INFORMATION DO WE COLLECT?
While using our Sites, we may ask you to provide us with certain personally identifiable information that can be used to contact or identify you (“Personal Information”). Personal Information may include, but is not limited to, your name, address, phone number and email address.
You may, for example, provide Personal Information by sending us your feedback on our products, signing up for our newsletter or by participating in contests and sweepstakes. Your participation in any of these activities is voluntary and we will use Personal Information only for the purposes for which it was collected. For example, we may use your Personal Information to answer your questions, fulfill your requests, provide services or products to you, or improve our products and services.
Newsletter
We send our electronic newsletter to consumers who opted in on our website, social media pages, at events or through our contact form to receive news from us. Once signed up for our newsletter, you will receive information about our promotions, articles on topics of interest, recipes using our products, and other information relating to our products. You may choose to no longer receive these communications by clicking the “Unsubscribe” link at the bottom of any of the emails you receive from us. If you unsubscribe, you will no longer receive marketing emails from us, but you may still receive non-marketing emails like responses from inquiries made on our Contact Us page.
Contests, sweepstakes and games
We may use Personal Information to administer contests, sweepstakes, or regarding other marketing information and promotions. If you choose to participate, we may ask for Personal Information from you, like first name, last name, contact information, and location information. To learn more about our contests, sweepstakes and other promotions, please review the official rules or details that are posted with each promotion.
Consumer feedback and stories
Feedback from our consumers is very important to us because we constantly seek to make our products better, develop new products and improve our customers’ experience. We are interested in consumer stories, as they relate to our product – for example when and why they started eating them, how they use them in their daily routine or recipes and what they mean to them in their daily lives.
If you voluntarily share some of your personal experiences, recipes and/or photographs of our products by email or on one of our sites, you agree to have this information republished by us or used for other marketing promotions.
Tracking technologies
Technical information that may be collected includes information about the computer system or other technological device you may be using to access our Site, such as your computer’s IP address, operating system type and web browser, or websites you may have visited before visiting ours.

Web beacons: A web beacon is an invisible, embedded object or GIF file in a website or email, which allows us to check whether a user has accessed content. We may use this to track who is reading our Site, emails and newsletter, as well as when, and from which computer. It allows us to see if an email was read or forwarded to someone else, or if a web page was copied to another website.
Analytical technology: We may use third-party tracking services that capture how people navigate on our Site.
