Blackhawk Network Privacy Notice

 

Introduction

This Privacy Notice (commonly referred to as a “Privacy Policy”) explains how Blackhawk Network Holdings, Inc., and its affiliates (“BHN”, “Blackhawk,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), process the Personal Information of website visitors, users of our apps, users of our gift card and branded payments services. It also addresses the policies that apply to how we process the Personal Information of the customers of the many hundreds of brands who use Blackhawk Network platforms to provide services to those customers.

You should read and understand this Privacy Notice because it constitutes the core of our obligations to you when you use this website, when you provide your Personal Information to us either directly or through automated processes.

You are strongly encouraged to read this Privacy Notice in its entirety, not just the above highlights, so that you will fully understand Blackhawk’s commitment to responsible data governance and the protection of your personal information. Please also note that this Privacy Notice may have changed since the last time you read it, so you should make sure that you have familiarized yourself with any terms that may have changed since the last time you read it.

When we act as a Data Processor on behalf of another Data Controller, we collect, use, and disclose certain personal information only under the Controller’s instruction, and our processing of your personal information is subject to their instructions and privacy policies. For any site operated by us on behalf of another company, their privacy notice will appear on the site and that privacy notice will be the applicable policy.

Some of Blackhawk’s Services are offered through third parties, such as banks or other financial institutions. In those cases, you will see privacy notices provided by those companies alongside this Privacy Notice. This Privacy Notice will apply to your usage of that site while the privacy notice provided by the third party will apply to their use of their customers’ personal information in the delivery of their financial services. Please read both notices carefully to understand the differences between the applicability of one policy versus the other.

Please note: Links to third-party websites are provided solely for your convenience; when you go to those sites, your experience there is subject to the privacy notices and terms of use of those third-party sites, not ours, unless you are explicitly told otherwise.

We may make disclosures of any of the categories of personal information described in the Personal Information We Collect section above to the types of third parties described below, and have made such disclosures in the past 12 months.

Sale Of Data

We do not sell your personal information to third parties. Because we do not sell your personal information, we do not provide any further detail regarding such sales, nor do we provide a process for opting out of such sales.

Affiliated Blackhawk Companies

We disclose personal information among our affiliated and subsidiary companies in furtherance of the purposes set out in this Privacy Notice; their processing of your personal information is subject to the requirements and limitations contained in this Privacy Notice.

Clients and Partners

Where we process personal information on behalf and in conjunction with our clients or partners, we process and share your personal information with that entity. When we process personal information on behalf of a Controller, that Controller’s privacy notice will be presented, and their notice will apply instead of this Privacy Notice.

Referral Partners

We offer referral-based commission systems through third-party partners so that publisher websites may refer users to our pages to make purchases. These partners will be identified when you sign up, and we will obtain your consent in jurisdictions where this is required (in which case no other legal bases will apply). This Notice governs only Blackhawk’s use of such data. The partner’s own privacy notice governs its use of the data.

Gramm-Leach-Bliley Product Short Notices (US customers only)

Some products offered in conjunction with banks have unique data sharing agreements. Where relevant, Blackhawk will make available to you short-form privacy notices of each product’s sharing policies on that website or on this page (see “Blackhawk Network Short-Form Privacy Notice”).

We may also disclose your personal information under the following circumstances:

  • As permitted or required by law, such as to comply with a subpoena or court-issued discovery order, a warrant, a government request, or similar legal process;
  • When we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to respond to claims asserted against us; to protect our rights; to protect your safety or the safety of others; or, to investigate or prevent fraud;
  • If Blackhawk is involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or a portion of its assets, or in the event of a bankruptcy or dissolution of our business, your personal information may be transferred to an acquiring business or third party, including in contemplation of or related to due diligence for such business transactions, subject to any applicable restrictions under applicable laws.

Cookies, Technologies, and Online Tracking

We and our third-party service providers collect information automatically through Technologies. We, or our service providers, may combine this information with other information, including personal information we collect about you, to record your preferences, gather information about the use of our Sites and Services, identify when our emails are viewed, personalize content and ads and track information about the performance of our advertisements. We have a detailed Cookie Notice which is incorporated into this Privacy Notice and provides more information about our Technologies and cookie-related practices and a number of service providers we use for our online targeting activities.

Cookies

These are small files with a unique identifier that are transferred to your browser through our sites. Cookies allow us to collect information such as browser type, time spent on our sites, pages visited, language preferences, and your relationship with us. We can use this information to analyze trends, administer the website, track users’ movements around the site, measure the effectiveness of our communications, tailor our advertising to you, and gather demographic information about our user base as a whole. Cookies may provide us with information about devices and networks you utilize to access our sites and Services, and other information regarding your interactions with our sites and Services.

Our third-party partners may use Local Shared Objects, such as Flash cookies, to embed features on our sites. To manage Flash cookies, please click here.

"Do Not Track" Preferences

Our Site does not recognize do-not-track signals. Therefore, our practices remain the same whether or not you enable the "Do Not Track" feature. For more information about do-not-track signals, please click here or see in our Cookie Notice. In addition, some of our advertising partners, may use Technologies to collect information about your Internet activities across websites including our Sites.

We use these tools to gather information about users to help us improve our Sites, Services and user experiences. These analytics providers may use Technologies to perform their services on our behalf. See our Cookie Notice for more information about our use of analytics tools.

Marketing and Targeted Advertising

Targeted advertising and Custom Audiences

We partner with third-party ad networks and third-party ad companies to manage our advertising on other sites. Our third-party partners use Technologies to gather information about your activities across our sites and other sites in order to provide you personalized advertising based upon your browsing activities and interests. This involves the following categories of Personal Information: Identifiers, Commercial Information, and Internet Information. Please see the “Cookies, Technologies, and Online Tracking” section above or our Cookie Notice for more information.

We also partner with certain third parties so that we can better target ads and content to our users, and others with similar interests, on these third parties’ platforms or networks (“Custom Audiences”). One such partnership is with Facebook through their Custom Audiences program. Under that program we only share a cryptographically pseudonymized (“hashed”) version of your email address, which Facebook is prohibited from using for any other purpose and may not share with any other party. (More info on Facebook Custom Audience here). Subject to applicable laws, we may disclose certain information (such as your email address) with third parties and we may work with third-party ad networks and marketing platforms that enable us and other participants to target ads to Custom Audiences submitted by us and others. If you would like to opt-out of being included in our Custom Audiences going forward, email us(see Contact Information section below)  and we will opt you out of our future Custom Audiences. For more detailed information about how we partner with third parties for cookie-based ad targeting, please see our Cookie Notice.

Marketing and Newsletters

If you subscribe to our newsletters, we will use your name and email address to send them to you.

Social Media Features

Our sites include social media features, such as the Facebook "Like" button, either hosted by a third-party or hosted directly on our website (“Widgets”). Please refer to the privacy policies of the relevant third-party websites or services to find out more about the collection, use, and disclosure of your information through such features. We will comply with any legal obligations placed on the use of these technologies by certain jurisdictions, which may affect how these tools function.

Security

The security of your personal information is important to us. We use organizational, technical, and administrative safeguards to protect the personal information submitted to us. Please note that no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, we cannot guarantee or warrant the security of any personal information that we process.

Retention

It is our policy to retain your information only for as long as is necessary to fulfill the purpose for which it was collected and processed. We will retain your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you services and for as long as may be required to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, maintain appropriate business records, and enforce our agreements. Even if you request for your information to be deleted, laws and regulations may require us to retain a copy of your information in our files for a longer period of time.

Your Rights and Choices for Personal Data Processing

You may have legal rights in the jurisdiction where you reside with regard to your privacy and how your personal information is processed by us. This section provides details on what those rights are, how we honor them where required, and the process for exercising them. Regardless of where you reside, Blackhawk may at its sole discretion choose to extend these rights to all individuals, and to comply with reasonable requests in the manner detailed below. We do not charge for these services. Where you are entitled to exercise a right, we will respond to your request within the timeframe set out by applicable law. Where we provide answers on a voluntary basis, we will provide a response within a reasonable timeframe. We will not discriminate or retaliate against you for requesting or exercising these rights.

Notice At Collection, And To Know

At or before the time of collection, you may have a right to receive notice of our practices, including the categories of personal information and sensitive personal information to be collected, the purposes for which such information is collected or used, whether such information is sold or shared, and how long such information is retained. You can find those details in this Privacy Notice. You may also have a right to request additional information about our collection, use, disclosure, or sale of personal information about you (to “know”). Note that we have provided much of this information in this Privacy Notice. You may make such a request to “know” by the means in the Exercising your Rights section below.

Access, Correction, Portability, And Deletion

You have the right to access, correct (“rectify”), or delete (“erase”, ”be forgotten”) your personal information held by us, or may ask for a restriction of processing. You may also have the right to ask for an overview or copy of your personal information or to request that certain of your personal information be exported in a format so that you may take your data to another provider where technically feasible (“data portability”).

On some of our sites, you may exercise your rights to access, correct, or delete your personal information by making the change directly on your account page. You may also make these requests by the means in the Exercising your Rights section below.

Please note that there are some limitations to these rights. For example, we will not be able to delete your personal information if we are required or permitted by law to keep it or if we hold it in connection with a contract with you. Similarly, access to your personal information may be refused if making the information available would reveal personal information about another person or if we are legally prevented from disclosing such information. If we cannot fulfill your request, we will inform you about why we cannot comply with your request.

Withdrawal of Consent

Where we process your personal information based on your consent, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of the processing that occurred based on your consent before its withdrawal. Please keep in mind that certain services are directly dependent upon our ability to process your personal information, so if you withdraw your consent, request for your information to be deleted, or if you otherwise object to our processing of certain personal information, those services may no longer be functional.

Object To Processing

You have the right to object to processing (including profiling) that occurs based on legitimate interest grounds, where we are relying upon legitimate interests as the primary basis for processing your personal information. If you object, we must stop that processing unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that override your interests, rights and freedoms, or we need to process the personal information for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims. Where we rely upon legitimate interest as a basis for processing, we believe that we can demonstrate such compelling legitimate grounds, but we will consider each case on an individual basis.

Opting Out of sharing and Certain Targeted Advertising

If you wish to not have cross-site information about you used or shared for the purpose of serving you targeted ads online, you should opt-out by taking the following two steps: (1) using the controls available through our website cookie banner to decline advertising-related cookies, and (2) submitting a request below (see “Exercising Your Rights”). Both steps (1) and (2) are required to make your choice effective, and you may need to reperform step (1) for each Blackhawk site you visit, and for each browser and device you use.

Some browsers and browser extensions support the “Global Privacy Control” (GPC) or similar controls that can send a signal to the websites you visit indicating your choice to opt-out from certain types of data processing, including targeted advertising, as specified by applicable law. When we detect such a signal, we strive to make reasonable efforts to treat such a signal as a request to opt-out of having cross-site information about you used or shared for the purpose of serving you targeted ads online, similar to the steps outlined above. We cannot guarantee that these types of controls will be effective, so we encourage you to manually request per above.

You can also opt-out of many (but not necessarily all) ad networks by visiting the DAA WebChoices Tool (or if located in the European Union, by visit Your Online Choices). You will continue to receive ads on the sites you visit, but the ad networks from which you have opted out will no longer target ads to you based upon your activities on other sites. Please note, however, that as with step (1) above, these opt-out mechanisms are also cookie based, so if you delete cookies, block cookies or use another device, your opt-out will no longer be effective. For more information about Interest Based Advertising, please visit Your Ad Choices.

Object To Marketing

You have the right to object to our use of your personal information (including profiling) for direct marketing purposes, such as when we use your personal information to invite you to our promotional events. You may also choose to stop receiving our newsletter or marketing emails at any time by following the unsubscribe instructions included in these emails or accessing the email preferences in your account.

Right to Lodge a Complaint

If you believe that our processing of your personal information infringes your rights or violates applicable data protection laws, you have a right to lodge a complaint with the relevant supervisory authority. If you are located in the European Union, a list of supervisory authorities is available here. If you are in the United Kingdom, you may contact the Information Commissioner’s Office. If you are in the United States, you may contact the US Federal Trade Commission (residents of California may contact the California Department of Justice). Residents of Canada may contact the Privacy Commissioner of Canada or their provincial data protection commissioner. If you are located in another jurisdiction, you will need to research or contact your local government for further guidance.

Sensitive Personal Information

We do not use or disclose sensitive personal information in ways that require an opt-out right under applicable law.

Exercising your Rights

To exercise your rights as described in this Notice, you may contact us via the following methods:

 

We will respond to your request in accordance with applicable law, and if we are unable to comply with your request, we will provide information regarding why.

When Submitting A Privacy Rights Request

Depending on the nature of your request, we may request further proof of your identity in accordance with applicable law. When sending a request, you can expedite this process by providing the full information with your initial inquiry:

  • Full name;
  • Email address associated with the relevant transaction(s);
  • Postal address associated with your account or transaction;
  • Product or service (for example, which Blackhawk website you used); and,

We may ask you to respond from the associated email address, or to provide the information above or additional information thereafter, as part of our verification processes. If the nature of your request is unclear we may ask you for further clarification. In the event that we require additional time to process your request (if allowed by applicable law), we will advise you of that. If you are unable to or refuse to provide satisfactory verification information, we may deny your request in accordance with applicable law. If you do not follow the procedures described in this Privacy Notice, including failure to lodge your request through the channels or processes specified above, there may be significant delays in responding to your request.

Where permitted by law, you may designate, in writing or through a power of attorney, an authorized agent to make rights requests on your behalf. Before accepting such a request from an agent, we will require the agent to provide proof you have authorized it to act on your behalf, and we may need you to verify your identity directly with us.

Please note that we will only respond directly to you, or your duly authorized agent (with authority documented in strict accordance with applicable law), in cases where we are the Controller of your personal information. Where we are acting as a Processor on behalf of a client or partner, we will refer you to the client or partner who is the data controller of your personal information. Our agreements with data controllers, as well as applicable laws, require that we process data in strict accordance with the controller’s explicit instructions, therefore any actions we take to access, edit, or delete your data will only be undertaken with their direct authorization and upon their explicit instructions.

Protecting Children’s Privacy Online

Our sites are not directed to children and we do not knowingly collect or sell personal information directly collected from children under the age of sixteen (16).

We reserve the right to delete the personal information and terminate the account of anyone violating this age policy.

International Transfers

>The personal information we collect from you may be transferred to, stored at, or processed in other countries, , which may not provide equivalent levels of data protection to your home jurisdiction.

 

We will take steps to ensure that your personal information receives an adequate level of protection in the jurisdictions in which we process it, including through appropriate written data processing terms, data transfer agreements, and risk assessments where required. The steps we will follow may differ depending on jurisdictions specific requirements, and may include (but are not limited to) the following:

  • Blackhawk relies on contractual protections or other means to provide a comparable level of protection for the personal information and by by using the site or services of Blackhawk and its affiliates, you understand and agree to the transfer of personal information to other jurisdictions such as the US, the UK, India or El Salvador, in accordance with this Privacy Notice;
  • For transfers from the EU, or Switzerland, to third countries: Blackhawk relies on adequacy decisions by the EU Commission or standard contractual clauses as approved by the European Commission or another applicable supervisory body;
  • For transfers from the United Kingdom (“UK”) to third countries: Blackhawk relies on adequacy decisions by the UK Secretary of State or standard contractual clauses as approved by the Information Commissioner’s Office or another applicable supervisory body; and
  • Your explicit consent as required by local law.
