You may unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time by using the unsubscribe link included in the email or by contacting us.

Unsubscribing from marketing communications does not necessarily remove information that we are required or permitted to retain for other legitimate business or legal purposes.

4. Giveaway Information

When you register for or participate in a The Coop Scoop giveaway, we may collect the information necessary to administer the giveaway and communicate with participants.

Giveaway information may be used to:

Confirm registration.
Communicate giveaway instructions and important dates.
Provide information about eligible entry methods.
Administer and track giveaway entries.
Communicate information about prizes and giveaway results.
Respond to giveaway questions or requests.

Registration alone does not necessarily constitute a giveaway entry. Giveaway eligibility, entry methods, deadlines, limits, and other requirements are governed by the applicable Official Rules for each giveaway.

5. Free Mail-In Giveaway Entries

Where a giveaway offers a free mail-in or no-purchase entry method, information submitted through that process may be used to administer the giveaway and verify eligibility.

Purchasing is not required to participate when the applicable Official Rules provide a no-purchase entry method.

6. Merchandise and Purchases

The Coop Scoop may provide access to merchandise and shopping experiences, including products such as shirts, hoodies, mugs, calendars, puzzles, coloring books, kitchen towels, ornaments, and other chicken-themed merchandise.

When you make a purchase through a third-party shopping or fulfillment service, that service may collect and process information necessary to complete the transaction, including information such as your name, email address, shipping information, payment information, and order details.

The third-party service's own privacy policy and terms may also apply to information you provide directly to that service.

Website and form hosting.
Email communications.
Merchandise and order fulfillment.
Video content and YouTube.
Shopping and product links.
Website analytics and functionality.
Other services necessary to operate and improve The Coop Scoop.

For example, The Coop Scoop website links to or embeds YouTube content and may direct visitors to third-party shopping experiences.

When you leave our website or interact directly with a third-party service, that third party's privacy policy and terms may apply. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of third-party websites and services before providing them with personal information.

8. Cookies and Similar Technologies

Our website and third-party services we use may use cookies, pixels, analytics tools, or similar technologies to operate the website, remember preferences, understand website usage, improve functionality, and measure the effectiveness of communications or marketing.

You may be able to control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect some website functionality.

However, no website, internet transmission, or electronic storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
