PLEASE REVIEW THIS PRIVACY STATEMENT CAREFULLY. When you participate in the Panel, you consent to the collection and processing of your information as described in this Privacy Statement. By participating in the Panel, you accept the terms of this Privacy Statement, and our Panel Terms and Conditions and consent to our collection, use, disclosure and retention of your information as described in this Privacy Statement. 

2. Links to Other Sites and Services

During the course of the Panel, we may present you with links or information regarding third-party websites and services, such as social networks or other online platforms (a “Third Party Service”), with which we have no affiliation. A link to or other availability of any Third Party Service does not mean that we endorse it or the quality or accuracy of information presented on it.

Without limiting the foregoing, Impossible Foods may use online survey tools provided by its Third Party Services.

Impossible Foods is not responsible for the terms and conditions or privacy policies of these third parties. We encourage you to read such terms and conditions and privacy policies relating to any Third Party Service that you use or visit.

3. Information We Collect and How We Collect It 

Surveys. Before we ask whether you’d like to participate in the Panel, we’d like to learn more about you. To do that, we have invited you to participate in an initial survey where we will ask you to provide information about yourself and how you interact with our products. For example, we may ask you about when you last purchased our products and from where, where you may want to see our products available in the future and what you eat and drink with Impossible Foods products. We may also ask you to confirm or provide certain personal information such as your preferred name, email and zip code, as well as demographic information about yourself, including your age, gender and household composition. Based on your responses to the initial survey, we may ask you to participate in the Panel. If you participate in the Panel, from time to time we may ask you to provide responses to other short surveys soliciting further information on what you think of our products, how you consume them and other Impossible Foods product-related information.

Events and Other In-Person Activities. If you are selected to participate in the Panel and decide to do so, we may also invite you to participate in certain events and product research activities. These events and activities may include buying and evaluating Impossible Foods products at various restaurants, participating in taste tests and attending other Impossible Foods events. At these events and activities, we will ask you to provide various information and feedback regarding Impossible Foods products and your purchase experiences.

4. How information is used

We may use the information we collect as a result of your participation in the Panel to facilitate your participation in the Panel and for our internal research and analysis purposes relating to our business, such as determining trends in consumption of our products and determining where our products may be in demand. We may combine the information you provide with information we collect from other sources and may aggregate or de-identify information as needed to enable our research and analysis. We may de-identify the information we collect and use such de-identified data for any lawful purpose.
