Personal Information
TreeHouse Foods Company collects personally identifiable information
from the visitors to our Web site only on a voluntary basis.
Personal information collected on a voluntary basis includes
name, postal address, e-mail 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 e-mail list. The information collected is internally
reviewed, used to improve the content of our Web site, 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 Web site 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

Foods Company 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 Web site may
automatically recognize the domain name of the Web site, 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 e-mail address of visitors
to our Web site. The information collected is used solely
for internal review and not shared with other organizations
for commercial purposes.
TreeHouse Foods Company may use "cookie" technology
to obtain non-personal information from our online visitors
in order to improve your online experience. "Cookies"
are small data files that certain Web sites write to your
hard drive when you visit them. They may contain information,
such as a user ID, that the Web site can use to track users'
progress through the Web site, but any personal information
contained within any "cookie" can only be supplied
voluntarily by you. The "cookie" enables us to track
the total number of visitors to our site, the popularity of
various areas of our site, and the length of the visits in
an aggregate form (as one of a group, your individual personal
information is not singled out). No personal information is
extracted in this process. We do not contact you nor do we
provide this information to third parties. "Cookies"
allow us to update and improve our site.
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 Web site, 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 TreeHouse Foods Company,
our employees, customers, Web site visitors, or others.
