This online privacy policy describes the information My Panini collects through the services available on our web site, BestPanin.com (the “Site”) and the Doughnini Card Program, and how we use that information. Our policy also describes the choices you can make about how we collect and use your information.
What type of information does My Panini collect about me?
My Panini may collect personal information. Personal information means information about an identifiable individual and may include:
Identifying information, such as name, address, e-mail address; financial information, such as credit card number; and employment-related information, such as may be found on resumes, applications, background verification information, or in employment references.
Personal information does not include business contact information (e.g. office address, telephone number) in those jurisdictions that recognize such information as not being personal information.
Personal information will be collected, to the extent possible, directly from the individual concerned.
In addition to the personal information you actively provide us, we also collect web site use information which includes information about your internet service provider, browser type, domain name, IP address, the web site that referred you to us, the web pages you request, the date and time of those requests, and entry and exit points. Our collection of web site use information may involve the use of cookies and pixel tags.
My Panini may also collect aggregated data, which is data from which the identity of an individual cannot be determined. Since it is not personal information, My Panini may use aggregated data in any way that it considers appropriate.
How does My Panini use personal information? My Panini may use personal information provided verbally or in writing (including via electronic media) by customers and potential employees in order to:
- Process and manage your purchase of My Panini products and services, including the purchase and use of your Doughnini Card

Is my personal information shared with third parties?
Our website may share information with companies that provide support services to us (such as credit card processors, mailing houses or web hosts) or that help us market our products and services (such as email vendors). These companies may need information about you in order to perform their functions. These companies are not authorized to use the information we share with them for any other purpose.
We may disclose specific information upon governmental request, in response to a court order, when required by law, to enforce our corporate policies, or to protect our or others' rights, property, or safety. We do not provide information to these agencies or companies for marketing or commercial purposes.
In the event of a sale of some or all of our business, My Panini may disclose personal information to those involved in a transfer of all or part of the assets or business.
Unless permitted by law, no personal information is collected, without first obtaining your consent for the collection, use and sharing of that information. The provision of personal information to My Panini means that you agree and consent that we may collect, use and share your personal information in accordance with this privacy policy.
In addition, where appropriate, specific authorizations or consents may be obtained from time to time. For example, we may seek consent to use and share personal information after it has been collected in those cases where My Panini wishes to use the information for a purpose not previously identified or for which the individual concerned has not previously provided consent.
In most cases, and subject to legal and contractual restrictions, an individual is free to refuse or withdraw his or her consent at any time upon reasonable, advance notice. It should be noted that in some circumstances, certain My Panini products and services can only be offered if a person provides personal information to My Panini. If you choose not provide us with any required personal information, we may not be able to offer the products or services requested. We will inform you of the consequences of the withdrawal of consent.
How can I change what promotional communications I receive? We may use your e-mail address and other contact information provided to us through the Site or the Doughnini Card Program to send you promotional materials from us and, if you’ve opted in, from third parties. If you do not want to receive such promotional information, you can change your communication preferences and remove yourself from our e-mail list at any time. If you have a BestPanini.com account, go to the communication preferences page at BestPanini.com.
Please also note that even if you opt out of receiving promotional emails from us, we may still use your information to communicate with you for other purposes, such as orders/purchases, your Doughnini Card account, customer service responses and job related communications.
How do I remove or modify my personal information? My Panini strives to ensure that any personal information provided and in its possession is as accurate, current and complete as necessary for the purposes for which we use that information.
If you have signed up for a BestPanini.com account either through registering your Doughnini Card, ordering on line or making a purchase, we have provided you with a means to log into your account and edit your personal information including name, postal address and phone number to ensure its accuracy at all times.
If you signed up to receive email communications by providing your email address on the home page of BestPanini.com, you may opt out at BestPanini.com.
