  1. Cookies and Other Information Collected Automatically on the Website 

When you browse our Website, we may collect different cookies and other information automatically through technology to help enhance our ability to serve you.

  1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small files which are downloaded to your device when you visit a website. The cookie then sends information back to the originating website or to another website that recognizes that cookie.

Cookies are useful because they allow a website to recognize a user’s device. Cookies do lots of different jobs, like letting you navigate between pages efficiently, remembering your preferences, and generally improving the user experience. You can find more information about cookies at: www.allaboutcookies.org and www.youronlinechoices.eu.

  1. Cookies we use and why we use them
  2. Categories of cookies
  3. Our cookies categorized by function:

We use five types of cookies on our Website:

  • Essential Cookies: These are cookies that are strictly necessary for the functioning of the Website or for performing services that an individual user has requested. Some examples of functions performed by essential cookies are cookies that remember previous actions (g., entered text) when navigating back to a page in the same session.
  • Analytical Cookies: These cookies collect information about how visitors use a website, for instance which pages visitors go to most often, and if they get error messages from web pages. These cookies are used only to improve how the Website functions.
  • Functional Cookies: These cookies allow the website to remember choices users make and to provide enhanced, personalized features. For example, on our Website, these cookies remember users’ language preferences.
  • Targeting / Advertising cookies: Targeting/advertising cookies are cookies used to deliver advertisements relevant to the user. For example, we use cookies that remember what you viewed on our Website in order that we may serve you relevant advertisements for products that might interest you. We also use cookies that tell us whether you’ve seen an advertisement and interacted with it, for example, by clicking on it.
  • Social Sharing cookies: These cookies provide access to social networks and may collect personal information in relation to the user’s use of these networks. For example, we use cookies that share with other people in your Facebook network that you have visited our Website.

 

Our cookies categorized by persistence:

Cookies can also be categorized by how long they remain on your device. There are two broad categories of duration:

  • Persistent cookies: Persistent cookies remain on your device until deleted manually or automatically.
  • Session cookies: Session cookies remain on your device until you close your browser when they are automatically deleted.

We use both persistent and session cookies.

  • Other types of trackers:

We include small graphic images or other web programming code, called web beacons (also known as “pixel tags”, “web bugs” or “clear GIFs”), on the Website. The web beacons are minute graphics with a unique identifier. They are used to track the online movements of Web users. In contrast to cookies, which are stored in a user’s computer hard drive, web beacons are embedded invisibly on web pages and are about the size of the period at the end of this sentence.  

  1. Information collected by our cookies:

Our cookies collect several types of information, including information about your usage of our Website, details about your device, and your IP address.

Cookies might also collect the link that brought you to our Website and the webpage you visit after you leave our Website.

Details about your device might include the type of browser you used to access the Website, the version of that browser, and what kind of device you use.

An IP address is the number assigned to your device, for example your laptop or mobile phone, when your device accesses the internet. Your device may have a static IP address, which means that your device always has the same IP address. Or it may have a dynamic IP address, which means that the IP address changes each time the device accesses the internet.

To the extent that IP addresses are personal information under applicable data protection law, we treat it as personal information. We collect no other personal information through cookies on the Website. If we link information collected through cookies with any personal information you provide to us through the Website, e.g., through submitting a form, we also treat that information as personal information.

  1. How We DISCLOSE PERSONAL INFORMATION

We may disclose personal information to the following categories of third parties for the following purposes:

  • Service Providers: We may disclose your personal information to service providers to provide services to us or on our behalf and to assist us in meeting our business needs and contractual and legal obligations—for example, to host all or portions of the Website, to conduct analytics, or to ship products. Service providers will be permitted to process your personal information only for the purpose(s) for which it was disclosed to them and in accordance with the Company’s instructions.
  • Business partners: We may share personal information with our business partners to assist us in advertising, marketing, and making available information about products and services that may be of interest to you or your company.
    • Communications: The communications that you send to us through technologies we provide, e.g., queries submitted to us through online forms, chatbots, and search bars on our Website, may be shared in real-time with service providers and business partners that support those technologies. By using those technologies, you agree to such sharing of communications.
  • Professional Advisers and Related Third Parties: For example, we may disclose personal information to lawyers to assist us with legal compliance, auditors, accountants, or consultants to assist us in providing services to you or in otherwise conducting our business.
  • Corporate Affiliates: Your personal information may be disclosed to Sensient’s corporate affiliates, for example, to provide you with our products and services or to provide you with information about their products and services.

The Company will make the disclosures described above only as permitted by applicable laws.

  1. International Transfers of Personal information

Due to the global nature of our business and for the purposes described above, we may transfer personal information to parties located in countries other than the one where you reside, including to parties located in the United States. For example, we may transfer personal information internationally to our subsidiaries, affiliates, service providers, business partners and governmental or public authorities in another country in connection with the provision of our products and services to customers. The laws of these countries may provide a different level of protection for personal information than the country where you reside.

Before transferring personal information across borders, we will take steps to ensure an adequate level of protection for the transfer whenever required by applicable law to do so. This includes, when required by applicable law, relying on approved mechanisms, such as standard contractual clauses or other model clauses approved for use by applicable data protection authorities. These clauses are contractual commitments between companies transferring personal information, binding them to protect the privacy and security of the transferred personal information. For jurisdiction-specific information regarding cross-border data transfers, please refer to Section 10, below.

  1. how long we retain Personal information

Our retention periods for personal information are based on business needs and legal requirements. We will retain your personal information for as long as is necessary for the processing purpose(s) for which it was collected and any other permitted, linked purpose, including as described in Sensient’s retention policies. Where personal information, including sensitive personal information, is no longer needed or kept in accordance with our retention policies, we either irreversibly anonymize the data (in which case we may further retain and use the anonymized data) or securely destroy the data. In some jurisdictions, personal information may be retained for a longer period if you consent to the retention or if retention is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation. Sensient shall periodically review the personal information in its possession to determine if retention is appropriate.

For Applicants, we will retain the information of any Applicant who is not hired for one year after the hiring decision has been made unless (a) the Applicant indicates that we may maintain the information on file until the Applicant asks to delete the information, or (b) a shorter or longer retention period is legally required. These records will be retained for our internal recordkeeping and reporting purposes. During that time, we may use your personal information to consider you for positions in addition to the position(s) for which you initially applied. If you wish to withdraw your application from consideration at any time during this retention period, you can do so by contacting us at dpo@sensient.com

  1. How we secure Personal information

We are very concerned with the security of your personal information, and have implemented a security program to keep information that is transmitted to our systems protected from unauthorized access. Your submissions of information to our secure server are protected by Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS) and Transport Layer Security (TLS) technology, utilized by many popular browsers to safeguard transmissions. This technology allows us to use encryption tools to protect information transmitted between your computer and our server. After we have received your information, access to it is limited to employees with a need to know.

Unfortunately, no data transmission (over the Internet or otherwise) can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. While we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of any information you provide to us, and you do so at your own risk. We urge you to keep your username, password and any other log-in credentials in a safe place as you share responsibility for maintaining the confidentiality of the information that you submit to us.

  1. Additional Information Specific to Your Region
  • Individuals Who Reside in California
  • Individuals Who Reside Outside the United States
  1. Individuals Who Reside In California

This section applies only to individuals who reside in the state of California in the United States (“California residents”), to the extent that Sensient’s processing of their personal information is subject to the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act, (the “CCPA”)

Notice at Collection

Sensient collects the categories of personal information identified in Section 2 (What Personal Information We Collect), above, for the purposes identified in Section 5 (How We Use Your Personal Information), above, and retains personal information for the period described in Section 8 (How Long We Retain Personal Information), above. We may “sell” or “share” your personal information, as the CCPA defines those terms. We do not collect or process sensitive personal information for the purpose of inferring characteristics about you. To the extent you provide the Company with personal information about other California residents, you are responsible for providing this notice to them.

Additional Information About Disclosures of Personal Information

We may disclose your personal information to third parties for the following “business purposes” as that term is defined in the CCPA and as a supplement to the disclosure described in Section 6 (How We Disclose Personal Information), above:

  • Service Providers: We may disclose any of the categories of personal information listed above to service providers for the business purpose of performing services on the Company’s behalf, as well as (a) auditing, including counting ad impressions, (b) helping to ensure security and integrity, (c) debugging, (d) short-term transient use, (e) advertising and marketing services, except for cross-context behavioral advertising, (f) internal research, and (g) activities to maintain or improve the quality or safety of a service or device.
  • Professional Advisers and Related Third Parties: We may disclose any of the categories of personal information listed above to the professional services providers listed in Section 6 (How We Disclose Personal Information), above, for the business purpose of auditing compliance with policies and applicable laws in addition to performing services on the Company’s behalf.
  • Affiliated Companies: We may disclose any of the categories of personal information listed above to other companies within the Sensient corporate group for the business purposes of: (a) auditing compliance with policies and applicable laws, (b) helping to ensure security and integrity, (c) debugging, (d) short-term transient use, (e) internal research, and (f) activities to maintain or improve the quality or safety of a service or device.

Sales and Sharing

We do not “sell” your personal information as most people would understand that term, meaning that we do not disclose your personal information to any third party in exchange for a monetary payment. However, as is common practice among businesses operating online, we may allow third parties to receive information about you via cookies and other tracking technologies for purposes of analyzing and optimizing our services, to personalize your online experience by providing advertisements that are more relevant to you, and for statistical research and analytics. These activities may be defined as “sale’ or “sharing” of personal information under the CCPA. The CCPA defines “sharing” to mean disclosing personal information to a third party for its cross-context behavioral advertising purposes.

In the last 12 months, we have disclosed Internet or Other Electronic Network Activity Information, to analytics providers and network advertisers, and such disclosure may be considered a “sale” or “sharing” of personal information. We disclose this personal information to enable marketing to you and to deliver personalized advertising on the Website and in other interactions that you have with the Company while online.

We have no actual knowledge that we have sold or “shared” the personal information of children under 16, in the last 12 months and we have no intention to do so.

Note on Deidentified Information

At times, Sensient converts California residents’ personal information into deidentified information using reasonable measures to ensure that the deidentified information cannot be associated with the individual (“Deidentified Information”). We maintain Deidentified Information in a deidentified form and do not attempt to reidentify it, except that we may attempt to reidentify the information solely for the purpose of determining whether the deidentification processes ensure that the information cannot be associated with the individual.

Your California Privacy Rights

Subject to applicable limitations and exceptions, California residents have the following rights under the CCPA:

  • Right to Know: You have the right to submit a verifiable request for specific pieces of your personal information and for information about Sensient’s collection, use, and disclosure of categories of your personal information.
  • Right to Delete: You have the right to submit a verifiable request to delete personal information that Sensient has collected from you.
  • Right to Correct: You have the right to submit a verifiable request to correct inaccurate personal information about you, taking into account the nature of the personal information and the purposes of processing the personal information.
  • Non-Discrimination: Sensient will not unlawfully discriminate against you for exercising your privacy rights under the CCPA.
  • Right to Opt Out of Sale/Sharing: You have the right to opt out of the sale of your personal information and the disclosure of your personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising (“sharing”). You may also implement a browser setting or extension to communicate your selling and sharing preferences automatically to the websites you visit.

We honor your right to opt out of the sale and sharing of your personal information as signaled by a universal opt out signal or Global Privacy Control (“GPC”). To enable GPC, you can visit the Global Privacy Control page at https://globalprivacycontrol.org. If you download a supported browser or extension and exercise your privacy rights with GPC, we will turn off certain third-party cookies on our website after our website detects a GPC signal. However, if you visit our Website from a different device or from a different browser on the same device, you will need to opt-out or use an opt-out preference signal for that browser and/or device.

How to Exercise Your California Privacy Rights

Sensient will respond to requests to know, delete, and correct in accordance with applicable law if it can verify the identity of the requestor. You can exercise these rights in the following ways:

  • Call 1-800-222-4904
  • Complete the request form available here.

Notice of Right To Opt Out of Sale/Sharing

To opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information, you may modify your cookies settings or use an opt-out preference signal, such as the Global Privacy Control (GPC). Sensient processes these opt-out preference signals in a frictionless manner. This means that if you enable the GPC, Sensient will automatically be notified that you have opted out of the sale and sharing of your personal information, and Sensient will automatically process the opt-out preference signal to opt you out of the sale and sharing of your personal information.

To enable the GPC:

  • Go to Global Privacy Control — Take Control Of Your Privacy.
  • Click on “Get Started”.
  • Click on “View All Downloads”.
  • Under “Browsers + Extensions”, select a participating company and click “Download”.
  • Follow the instructions provided by the selected company for installing its browser.

If you have enabled the GPC, we will not be able to track your activity through the web. This may affect our ability to personalize ads according to your preferences. However, if you visit our Website from a different device or from a different browser on the same device, you will need to opt-out of sale/sharing or use an opt-out preference signal for that browser and/or device.

How We Will Verify Your Request

If you submit a request to know, delete or correct, we verify your identify by matching personal information that you provide us against personal information we maintain in our files. The more risk entailed by the request (e.g., a request for specific pieces of personal information), the more items of personal information we may request to verify your identity. If we cannot verify your identity to a sufficient level of certainty to respond securely to your request, we will let you know promptly and explain why we cannot verify your identity.

Authorized Agents
