What do you do with my information?
Wilton is committed to quality customer experience. For customers who access gingerbreadcontest.com, we record which pages you visited and any other information volunteered during the submission and voting process. All of this information is kept confidential. We never share, sell or exchange personal information about our customers with third parties. We collect this data to analyze how people use our site and to learn how we can improve their experience. We may also use the information we collect to notify you about important functionality changes to the Web site, new Wilton services and special offers we think you'll find valuable. Personal information you provide to Wilton is stored safely behind firewalls using state-of-the-art technology. For customers only browsing gingerbreadcontest.com, our site automatically recognizes your Internet service provider, but cannot identify you as an individual. During the voting process we send emails to addresses on behalf of the user who submitted an approved entry.

What are cookies and how are they used?

Some of them expire after a set period of time. Others expire as soon as you close your browser. Cookies help us keep track of how you are using the site so that we can improve the user experience in the future.

How will I know when gingerbreadcontest.com changes its privacy policy?
Our privacy policy is reviewed on an annual basis prior to the start of the contest to make sure we continue to serve the privacy interests of our customers. We reserve the right to change and update the privacy policy and these changes will be posted on our Web site. If we make a change to how we collect, store or share personally identifiable information we will update the Web site privacy policy accordingly. We encourage you to visit this page from time to time to ensure you are aware of any changes we may have made.
