Whether you submit any Personal Information to us is entirely up to you. You are under no obligation to provide Personal Information.

Please note that even if you opt out of receiving marketing communications, you may still receive business-related notifications and communications, such as order confirmations, Product recall information, loyalty program membership status and updates, and important administrative communications. There are some uses from which you cannot opt out, such as our use of De-identified Data or to provide Products and services that you have requested from us.
