This Privacy Policy applies to the information that Keurig Canada Inc. on behalf of itself and its parent, Keurig Dr. Pepper, Inc., or its affiliates and subsidiaries (collectively “Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”) collect from or about you when you use our websites (each a “Site”) and mobile applications (each an “App”), (collectively, the “Services”). This Privacy Policy also explains how Company may use and disclose such information, as well as your ability to control certain uses of it. We appreciate that you trust us with your information and we intend to honor that trust.
YOUR PRIVACY IS IMPORTANT TO US. PLEASE READ THIS PRIVACY POLICY CAREFULLY. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH ANY PART OF THIS PRIVACY POLICY, THEN PLEASE DO NOT USE THE SERVICES.
This Privacy Policy is incorporated into and made a part of Company’s Terms of Use. If you have not done so already, please also review our Terms of Use. Our Terms of Use include provisions that limit Company’s liability to users and other important terms. By using the Services, you agree to the collection, use, and disclosure of your information as described in this Privacy Policy, and agree to our Terms of Use, which are incorporated by reference.
GENERAL INFORMATION
This Privacy Policy applies to the Services to which it is linked. If a particular Service has its own privacy policy, then that policy – not this Privacy Policy – applies. This Privacy Policy does not apply to information that is collected by any third-party websites or services that you may access through the Services.
INFORMATION WE COLLECT
There are several ways we may obtain information about you, including through (A) information you provide to us directly; (B) information that we automatically collect; and (C) information we receive from third parties. Some of the information directly or indirectly identifies you as an individual. When information identifies or is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with you or your household, we refer to it as “Personal Information.” This Personal Information includes the following categories:
• Identifiers/Contact Information: These include your name, postal and email address, phone number, and unique identifiers that may identify your device or browser but not you by name.
• Location Data: data about the location of the device you use to access the Services as more fully described below.
• Commercial Information: Your purchase and usage history, and goods and service preferences, including payment information or photos you share from your devices. • Information Collected with Your Consent. We also may ask you for your consent to collect information in a particular interaction with you as described to you in those circumstances.
• Internet/Electronic Activity: Your geolocation information, IP address, web/app browsing and search history related to our Services, and information regarding your interaction(s) with the Services or Company advertising.
• Profile Inferences: The inferences that we draw from your Personal Information and web activity to create a personalized profile so we can better identify goods and services that may be of interest.
We also work with various types of data that are de-identified or aggregated, and not reasonably capable of being associated with, or reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with you or your household. This data is not Personal Information.
Personal Information You Provide
Company collects Personal Information when you choose to share it with us, such as:

You must create a KDP account (“KDP Account”) to use certain Services, including the Keurig® App (please refer to the Keurig® App Privacy Notice https://www.keurigdrpepper.ca/en-ca/app-privacy-notice for further information). A KDP Account as well as certain services we may offer such as subscription to our auto-delivery services require you to provide Personal Information so we can identify you and process your purchases, enable you to customize the Services to your liking (e.g., identify your brewing preferences), and so we can link your product preferences to your KDP Account. Also, when you contact us, we may monitor and record your conversation with the Company representative (where permitted by law).
Personal Information you provide when you make a purchase. We collect Personal Information to process your purchases from us, and to provide you with the goods or services you ordered.
Personal Information you provide for customer support. We collect your feedback and questions that you provide to us for customer support. In answering your questions, we may collect supporting data from your device.
Personal Information collected with your consent. We also may ask you for your consent to collect Personal Information in a particular interaction with you as described to you in those circumstances.
