Linking to External Sites, Applications and Other Online Services
INTERNATIONAL TRANSFERS OF PERSONAL DATA
Hasbro is a global business whose headquarters is in the United States. Our customers and our operations are spread around the world. As a result, we collect and transfer Personal Data on a global basis. That means that we may transfer your Personal Data to locations outside of your country. These countries may have data protection laws that are different to the laws of your country.
Specifically, our website servers are located in the United States and our group companies and third-party service providers and partners operate in the United States, as well as elsewhere. This means that when we collect your Personal Data it will be processed in the United States, in addition to other locations. We will ensure that it is protected and transferred in a manner consistent with legal requirements. For EEA and UK customers, see more information on the safeguards we implement when transferring your Personal Data outside the EEA/UK in theEEA/UK Annex below.
You may obtain more information regarding our appropriate safeguards by contacting us using the details below.
HOW WE SAFEGUARD YOUR PERSONAL DATA
We have established controls and policies to maintain the security of our information and information systems and to protect your Personal Data against loss, misuse and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration and/or destruction. Specific measures we use include data encryption according to industry standards and providing access to Personal Data only to employees performing a legitimate business function.
When you contact a Hasbro employee about your use of the Services, transactions or Personal Data, you may be asked for some Personal Data. This type of safeguard is designed to ensure that only you, or someone authorized by you, has access to your Personal Data.
Where you have created an account and unique password to enable you to access our Services it is your responsibility to keep this password secure and confidential.
We also review our security procedures periodically to consider appropriate new technology and updated methods for keeping Personal Data secure.
Despite our efforts, please be aware that no security measure is ever perfect or impenetrable. To that end, Hasbro will notify users of a data breach when Hasbro determines it is reasonably necessary in accordance with applicable law.
HOW LONG DO WE KEEP YOUR PERSONAL DATA
How long we will hold your Personal Data for will vary and will be determined by different criteria.
We retain your Personal Data where we have an ongoing legitimate business need to do so. This may be to provide you with products and services you have requested, or to comply with applicable legal, tax or accounting requirements (laws or regulations may set a minimum period for which we have to keep your Personal Data), or otherwise administer our business.
In certain circumstance, we will need to keep your information for legal reasons after your account has been deleted. The specific retention periods depend on the nature of the information, why it is collected and processed, and the nature of the legal requirement. For example: We keep your information when we have a legal obligation to do so (such as, if a court order is received about your account, for ongoing local tax obligations, or to keep adequate records of winner information for any sweepstakes or contests we may offer from time to time, we would retained your data for longer than the usual retention period when an account is deleted); to deal with and resolve requests and complaints (for example, if there was an ongoing complaint with respect to a purchased item arriving broken but you had deleted your account), to protect individuals' rights and property (for example, we will retain information about a data subject access request for one year after the request in case there is a subsequent complaint and the information is needed to demonstrate how the request was handled), and for litigation or regulatory matters (for example, we would retained your information if there was an ongoing legal claim and the information was relevant to the claim.) All required information would be retained until the applicable matter had been concluded.
When we have no ongoing legitimate business need or legal reason to process your Personal Data, we will either delete or anonymize it or, if this is not possible (for example, because your Personal Data has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your Personal Data and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.
ANALYTICS AND ADVERTISING
We use the following analytics and advertising tools and services and specific information relating to the analytics and advertising tools we use in your geographic location can be found in your localized Cookie Policy. For more information about your choices and rights associated with analytics, interest-based advertising and matched adds, please visit our Cookie policy, set your preferences in our cookie management tool and/or review the next section of this Privacy Policy, “What are my information choices.”
Website and Mobile Analytics
We use analytics and services, such as Google Analytics and Google advertising tags to help us understand how our users access and use our Services. These tools and services use cookies, web beacons, and other devices or technologies on the Services to enable them to track traffic data. The data collected typically includes information such as your IP address, your Internet Service Provider, your web browser, the time spent on web pages, the links clicked, and the advertisements viewed on those pages. We use this information to improve the Services and your experience, to see which areas and features of the Services are popular, and for which visitors, and to count visits.
Interest-Based Advertising
We work with agencies, ad networks, technology services, and other parties to place ads for our products and services on other websites and online services. These other parties use cookies, web beacons, and other devices or technologies to collect information about your visits to websites and mobile applications, including to the Services. The data is collected through first party cookies and third-party cookies and typically includes information such as your IP address, your web browser, web pages viewed, time spent on pages, links clicked, and whether you purchased an advertised product. These other parties use this information to track your activities across time and services for purposes of associating the different devices you use and delivering advertising and/or content targeted to your interests.
Matched Ads
Websites and applications owned or operated by other parties may display ads from Hasbro that are targeted to reach people (or people similar to people) on those websites or applications who have visited our Services or are also identified on one of more of Hasbro's databases. This is done by us uploading a customer list to the other party or incorporating a pixel from the other party on our Services, and the other party matching common factors between our data and the data of the other party. For instance, we incorporate the Facebook pixel on our Site and may share your email address with Facebook as part of Facebook Custom Audiences. We may also work with partners to deliver matched ads based on data about you and others in those partners' own databases.
WHAT ARE MY INFORMATION CHOICES
Regarding Accounts
If you have created an account with the Services, you may at any time review and/or update the contact details and address information we have for you by signing into your account or by contacting your applicable Hasbro Consumer Care Pulse representative with any questions or updates to your account information.
If you wish to fully remove your account information from our database and delete your information, please click on this link to our online Form to do so.
If you choose to send us an email through Consumer Care, please be sure to include the following in your message: the name of the Hasbro website with which you have an account, and the email address you used to sign up for that account so that we can verify your request. If you have requested that we save information for you in connection with placing an order through the Services, please email your request to the Hasbro Pulse Consumer Care representative. See the Contact Us section below for specific details. We will respond to requests as soon as possible.
Please note, however, that we may retain your information following such requests as described in the section on How Long Do We Keep Your Personal Data.
Regarding Ratings, Reviews and Questions You Post
If you have posted product-related questions, ratings, or review content that you want us to remove from the Site, please email your request using the applicable contact info below. Please note, however, that we may need to keep your previously posted information set out in the section on How Long Do We Keep Your Personal Data above.
Regarding Promotional Communications
We may send you promotional communications if you sign up and agree to receive them through the Services. If you have signed up to receive promotional communications from Hasbro via another Hasbro ecommerce site, you will receive them through Hasbro Pulse rather than directly from the ecommerce site.
You may opt-out of receiving promotions emails or mails from Hasbro at any time by declining to receive such communications when you sign up for an account, place an order or otherwise provide your contact information to us. You may also opt-out of receiving promotions emails at any time either by following the instructions to “unsubscribe” in those emails or by contacting your Hasbro Pulse Consumer Care representative.
If you opt-out or unsubscribe, we may still send you transactional or relationship messages, such as emails about your account, an order you placed, a crowdfunded product you have backed, or our other ongoing business relations.
Regarding Cookies
You may choose to set your cookie settings and preferences at any time by clicking and using the Cookies Settings link. Please note that if you choose to remove or reject certain cookies, the functionality and availability of some or all of the content and features available via the Services may be affected. Please refer to the Cookie Notice for more information.
Additional Choices Regarding Analytics and Interest Based Advertising
Google provides tools to manage the collection and use of certain information by Google Analytics at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
Some of the companies we work with to provide you with targeted advertising participate in the Digital Advertising Alliance ("DAA") or the Network Advertising Initiative ("NAI"). For more information about the targeted advertising provided by these companies, and how to opt out of having your information used in this way by these companies, please visit: www.aboutads.info/choices for opt out for DAA participating companies or https://www.networkadvertising.org/choices for opt out for NAI participating companies. Opting out only means that the selected participants should no longer deliver certain targeted ads to you but does not mean you will no longer receive any targeted content and/or ads (e.g., from other ad networks).
To opt out of us using your data for matched ads, please contact us as set forth in the “Contact Us” section below and specify that you wish to opt out of matched ads. We will request that the applicable party not serve you matched ads based on information we provide to it. Alternatively, you may directly contact the applicable party to opt-out.
You may also limit our use of information collected from or about your mobile device for purposes of serving online behavioral advertising to you by going to your device settings and selecting “Limit Ad Tracking” (for iOS devices) or “Opt out of Ads Personalization” (for Android devices).
Please note that if you opt out using any of these methods, the opt out will only apply to the specific browser or device from which you opt out. Hasbro is not responsible for the effectiveness of, or compliance with, any third-party opt out options or programs, or the accuracy of any third-party statements regarding opt out options or programs.
Your browser may allow you to set a Do Not Track (DNT) signal indicating that you do not wish your online activity to be tracked. In addition, some browsers or plug-ins use a Global Privacy Control (GPC), which allows you to opt-out of certain data processing. (You can learn more about the GPC at https://globalprivacycontrol.org) Currently, our system does not support and cannot act on DNT signal headers that we may receive. If our Site detects a GPC signal from your device, however, we will interpret it as either a “Do Not Sell” request to limit the sale or sharing of Personal Data for targeted advertising depending on the law applicable to your jurisdiction.
U.S. STATE-SPECIFIC DISCLOSURES AND RIGHTS
This section provides additional disclosures for individuals who reside in California, Colorado, Connecticut, Utah, or Virginia. We anticipate expanding these disclosures and rights to residents of additional states in the future.

- in some circumstances, the right to receive some Personal Data in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format and/or request that we transmit those data to a third party where this is technically feasible. Please note that this right only applies to Personal Data which you have provided directly to Hasbro;
- the right to request that we rectify your Personal Data if it is inaccurate or incomplete;
- the right to request that we erase your Personal Data (including removing your account information) in certain circumstances. Please note that there may be circumstances where you ask us to erase your Personal Data, but we are legally entitled to retain it;
- the right to object to, or request that we restrict, our processing of your Personal Data in certain circumstances. Again, there may be circumstances where you object to, or ask us to restrict, our processing of your Personal Data but we are legally entitled to refuse that request. If we process your Person Data for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to processing of your Personal Data for such marketing as explained above at “What are my Information Choices”;
- the right to opt out of marketing communications we send you at any time; and
- the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection regulator.
