Privacy Policy
Your privacy is important to us and we shall take care to
safeguard it. This policy should answer any concerns you
may have regarding your privacy. However, if you do not
understand this privacy policy or are under the age of 16
you should not participate in ShopandScan.
When and what information do we collect?
Some personal data is collected when you volunteer to
join ShopandScan and when you scan in your shopping. In
particular, Kantar Worldpanel may collect (you will be prompted for
your consent) and hold details of your name, address,
telephone number, and email address. For your information
we have certain security measures in place to protect the
loss, misuse, and alteration of the information that Kantar Worldpanel
may collect.
We acknowledge and accept that some of you may not wish
to provide certain requested information but we are still
happy to have you participate in our research programmes
and will do our best to win your trust.
How do we use cookies?
As with many other websites on the Internet we use
cookies to enable the smooth running of our site and make
your experience of it as pleasant as possible. Cookies
are small data files on your computer's hard drive
storing details such as your household number. This enables us to
recognise our panel members each time they visit the site
to download their shopping data to us.
We may also check for cookies that are left on your machine when you view specific adverts or web pages online using a system called tagging. Tagging is an ad indication technology which enables select advertisers to know if one of their ads was displayed to your computer as part of your normal web browsing. The ad indication occurs by enabling a beacon which typically places a text file (cookie) on your browser. This is for research purposes only; no future ad display or behavioural targeting decisions are directly powered by this at all. There is no personally identifiable information passed. You can control how cookies are handled and stored or delete all cookies by changing your browser settings. If you do not wish to participate in this specific part of ShopandScan you can opt out by clicking here.
Opting out will not affect any other aspect of your ShopandScan membership. Please note that the option to opt out is available 24 hours after you have completed registration or if you are a current member of ShopandScan.
What do we do with your personal information?
We will publish summarised reports about ShopandScan
research. These reports will never identify any
individual household.
You consent to us using your personal data to provide you
with correspondence or any communications relating to
market research which may require your involvement.
In particular we need to share some of your personal
information with BI (The Business Improvement Company)
who operate the Reward Accounts for each panel member.
This information is kept in confidence and only used to
establish and track the reward points you have earned and
to enable them to deliver your selected Reward items.
By telling us about your purchasing habits you
acknowledge and consent that any information that you
provide and any other personal information disclosed by
you with your consent, will be collected and used by Kantar Worldpanel
only, for market research purposes on behalf of our
clients, market research analysis, reports, internal
administration, internal training and/or to fulfil our
obligations to you. Any information you provide to us
will be treated with care and respect and we will not
mislead you in any way.
Who will we share your information with?
You consent to us sharing your personal data contained in
the survey or questionnaire with other companies within
the Kantar group. Please be assured we will not pass your
personal details to a third party company without your
prior consent. We may also be required to disclose your
personal information by law or to any regulatory
authority, including the Market Research Society.
