As an extension of this commitment, this Privacy Policy is designed to assist you in understanding how we collect, use and safeguard the personal information we collect and to assist you in making informed decisions when visiting or purchasing services through our website (the “Site”).

Aggregate Information

Our web server automatically collects the IP address, but not the email address, of all visitors to our Site.

Such information is aggregated with tracking data from all Site visitors. We use this aggregate information to help us evaluate visitor traffic patterns and improve our Site by making it more responsive to the needs of visitors. This information does not identify you personally.

Personally Identifiable Information

We only collect personally identifiable information such as your name, address, telephone number and email address when you choose to provide it on our Site. For example, we collect such information from our visitors if they register with the I LOVE REWARDS® program or the LOVE’S FLEET CARDTM program. By entering information into any one of these areas, you grant us permission to contact you about selected products, companies and events that we think may interest you. If you later decide you do not want to be contacted, please let us know through the opt-out procedures described below. In addition, if you place a resume with Love’s through the Site, your information will be given to a Love’s recruiter.
