USE OF COOKIES

The MRE website use “cookies” to help you personalize your online experience. A cookie is a text file that is placed on your hard disk by a web page server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you and can only be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.

One of the primary purposes of cookies is convenience. Cookies tell the web server that you have returned to a specific page. For example, if you personalize pages on the MRE Website or register for services with the MRE Website, a cookie helps recall your specific information on subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of recording your personal information, such as billing and shipping addresses. When you return to the MRE Website, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, allowing easy use of the customized MRE features.

You can accept or decline cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can generally modify your browser settings to decline cookies if you prefer. If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of the MRE Website or the websites you visit.

SECURITY OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

MRE uses commercially reasonable efforts to secure your personal information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. MRE secures your personally identifiable information computer servers in a controlled, secure environment, protected from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. When personal information, such as a credit card number, is transmitted to other websites, it is protected through the use of industry-standard levels of encryption, such as the Secure Socket Layer protocol.

INFORMATION ABOUT CHILDREN

MRE does not knowingly solicit or collect personal information or data from children, and we do not knowingly market to children.
