Personal information

Protecting your privacy is important to us and we hope that this notice (the “Privacy Policy”) will help you understand how Uralkali may use any personal information that you provide via the Site. This Privacy Policy should be read in conjunction with the General Terms and any other documents referred to on it. Please read the following carefully to understand our views and practices regarding your personal information and how we may treat it.

Personal information is information that can be used to identify you as a specific individual; for example, your name, address, email address or telephone number (your “Personal Information”). Visitors’ domain and IP address may be logged automatically. This data is not Personal Information and it does not identify you as an individual. If during your visit you submit Personal Information to us, it may be collected and used to communicate information to you (including, without limitation, to provide you with products or services, to bill you for products and services you request and to market products and services to you), for our marketing and research purposes or for any other internal or commercial purpose. By submitting data on the Site you are providing your explicit written consent to the use, collecting and processing of your Personal Information by Uralkali for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy.

Personal Information collected by Uralkali may be transferred among, and processed and stored by, its affiliates into and in the Russian Federation in accordance with Russian law, which may involve transfers from countries within the European Economic Area to the Russian Federation. By submitting data on the Site you are providing your explicit written consent to these transfers, processing and storing of your Personal Information and to Uralkali’s processing of such Personal Information in accordance with Russian law. Furthermore, Uralkali may disclose your Personal Information without any further consent if such disclosure is reasonably necessary, either to comply with legal obligations (including responding to subpoenas, court orders or other legal processes) or to protect the rights, property, or personal safety of Uralkali, its employees or the general public.

Uralkali may appoint unaffiliated third party organisations to assist in providing you with the information, goods, products and services you request. Any Personal Information you submit to such third parties may be used by them in accordance with their policies. Uralkali is not responsible for such uses. Uralkali may, however, receive certain Personal Information about you from such third parties.

Persons who receive communications from Uralkali are free to opt out at any time by following the procedure set out under the paragraph “Contact” below.

Cookies

The Site may automatically collect some non-personal information from you about your computer including by using “cookies” which are stored on the hard drive of your computer (for example, your IP address, the operating system and browser you are using, the frequency of your visits, which pages on the Site are most viewed) for system administration, to speed up your searches, to help Uralkali understand how the Site is being used and to improve your experience on the Site. This information also facilitates your use of the Site and ensures that you do not need to re-enter your details every time you visit it. You can erase or block this information from your computer if you want to; your user manual or help files should give instructions on how to do this. Unless you have adjusted your browser setting so that it will refuse cookies (most browsers automatically accept cookies by default), our system may issue cookies when you log on to the Site.
