We also gather information about any person to whom you are sending a gift (like his or her name and shipping address).

What Are Cookies? How Are They Used?

A cookie is a small piece of information sent by a website that is saved on your hard disk by your computer's browser. It holds information a site may need to interact with you and personalize your experience. At MyTriniGrocery.com, we use two kinds of cookies: session cookies and persistent cookies.

Session cookies exist only for as long as your browser remains open. Once you exit your browser, they go away. We use session cookies to maintain information we need to have in order for you to shop at MyTriniGrocery.com. For example, the session ID cookie that we ask your browser to hold retains the ID for your shopping cart. Without that session ID cookie, you wouldn’t be able to add any breads or pound cakes to your cart and proceed to checkout. And that would be terrible, indeed.

Persistent cookies, in contrast, last from visit to visit; they do not go away when you exit your browser. At MyTriniGrocery.com, we use persistent cookies to give you a more personalized shopping experience and to help you navigate our store more efficiently. However, you can use our site without accepting a persistent cookie. To do so, you should set your browser options to reject persistent cookies. Alternatively, you can set your browser to notify you when you receive a cookie, which gives you the opportunity to decide whether you want to accept it or not. In many instances, the Help button on your browser toolbar will assist you in taking the proper steps to do this.

Cookies can be used by a website to recognize you, but that does not necessarily mean any personal information is stored. At MyTriniGrocery.com, we do not store any personal information about you in the cookies. Anything you choose to tell us about yourself (such as your mailing address and email address) is stored safely and separately on our secured servers, and you always need to provide a password to access it.

We also use cookies to look at how groups, rather than individuals, use our website. In our physical headquarters, we can observe which aisles and departments are most heavily trafficked and determine what displays or sales are the most successful. By doing this, we can identify ways to improve the customer experience. On the web, cookies help us develop a similar understanding so that we can continue to improve the product offerings you see at MyTriniGrocery.com.

How Do We Use Your Information?

We may use your information in a number of ways, including the following:

To improve the content on our website. For example, we may use cookies to find out which parts of our site and what products are visited most often.

To enhance your online shopping experience. As an example, we may use it to recognize you and welcome you to our site.

For marketing and promotional purposes. We send out emails and direct mail to our online and store customers about products and events that we think may be of interest to them. You may choose to opt out of such emails and direct mail.

Is Your Information Secure?

MyTriniGrocery has taken every precaution and put in place many physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to try to safeguard and secure the information we collect online. For example, private account and customer information is located on a secured server behind a firewall; it is not directly connected to the Internet.

Encryption is a process by which a message or information is scrambled while it is in transit to MyTriniGrocery.com. It is based on a key that has two different parts, public and private. The public part of the key is distributed to those with whom you want to communicate. The private part is for the recipient's use only. When you send personal information to us, as long as you use a browser that allows for encryption, you are also using a public key to encrypt your personal information. If your information is intercepted during the transmission, it is scrambled and very difficult to decrypt. Once we receive your encrypted personal information, we use the private part of our key to decode it.

MyTrinigrocery uses the most advanced encryption and SSL software.
