Providing personal information is up to you. If you do not want your personal information collected, please do not submit it. If you choose not to give personal information to us, we may not be able to provide you with access to some or all of the pages on this Site or our other products and services. Occasionally, we may ask you for personal information about other people - for example, your family or other authorized representatives. If you give us this information, we rely on you to tell those people that you are giving their personal information to us and to make them aware of this Privacy Policy.

USE OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION
Your personal information may be used as follows:

However, at the point of collection of your information we will provide you either an "opt in" or "opt-out" mechanism depending on the requirements of the Site's Jurisdiction and the Site.

An "opt-out" mechanism will provide you the opportunity to indicate that you do not want us to send you such further communications, and if you "opt-out" we will not send you any.
Either way, opting-in or opting-out will be up to you and, in addition, if you do not want us to use your personal information for a particular purpose or disclose it to a third party, you may "opt out" at any time by contacting us as provided below.
Specific opt-outs may also be provided at the point of collection or along with the communications to you.

ACCESSABILITY STATEMENT:
Many Internet users with disabilities find web sites difficult or even impossible to use simply because of the way they are designed. We are working hard at Schweppes International Limited to provide access to information that is available to all our consumers, and this goes for the website, too. We are aware of the types of adaptive technology used by people with disabilities and are redesigning pages across our portfolio of websites to ensure compatibility with as many of these systems as possible. Changes include keeping text clear, formatting layouts and tables, and making sure links adequately describe where they go ('click here' does not mean much in isolation). We are rebuilding our websites to meet the Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI) Content Accessibility Guidelines set by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) and we aim, wherever possible, to ensure we conform to 'Double-A' standards. If you come across a part of our site that is difficult to use please tell us about it. We intend to keep improving our accessibility ñ so to help us do it, send us your comments.

Contact Us.
If you have any questions or comments regarding this Site, or wish to verify, correct, access or update any of your personal information collected through this Site, please contact us.
