Privacy & Legal Notices

This Privacy Policy applies to information about you that Bloomin’ Brands, Inc. (“BBI”, “we”, “our”, “us”) may obtain when you visit our websites including bloominbrands.com, outback.com, carrabbas.com, bonefishgrill.com, flemingssteakhouse.com, aussiegrill.com, tendershack.com, outbackandcarrabbasexpress.com, or dine-rewards.com (collectively, the “Sites”); use any of the associated mobile applications (the “Apps”); or connect to the WiFi in our locations (the Sites, Apps, and WiFi are collectively referred to as the “Services” in this Policy). This Privacy Policy describes how we may collect, use, or share information about you; your choices regarding our use of your information; how we safeguard such information; and how you may contact us regarding our privacy practices.

Collection of Personal Information

Information you provide. We may obtain information that you provide directly to us through the Services when, for example, you create an account, submit an order, look up nearby restaurants, make a reservation, download one of our apps, sign up for special offers, fill out a contact form, submit an order for a gift card, apply for a job, log in to a WiFi network in one of our restaurants, or otherwise interact with the Services. The information we obtain may include personal information, which is information that can be used to identify you individually, such as your name, address, email address, phone number, date of birth, company affiliation, payment information, or geolocation.

Information collected automatically. We also may collect certain information about you automatically using various tools and technologies such as cookies and web server logs whenever you interact with the Services. Information collected in this manner may include IP addresses, device identifiers, device model, device carrier information, software version, browser characteristics, operating system details, language preferences, referring URLs, length of visits, MAC address and pages viewed.

A cookie is a piece of data that a website can send to your browser, which may then be stored on your hard drive as an anonymous tag that identifies your computer. Many web browsers are set to accept cookies by default, but you may be able to set your browser to notify you before you receive a cookie or to remove or reject cookies. Please note that if you disable cookies, you may not be able to use certain features of the Sites or other websites, and disabling cookies may invalidate opt-outs that rely on cookies to function.

We may combine certain automatically-collected information with other information we obtain about you, which may include data we obtain from third parties.

Please note that we or third parties may collect personal information about your online activities over time and across different devices and online properties when you use the Services.

Your web browser may have settings that allow you to transmit a “Do Not Track” signal when you visit various websites or use online services. Like many websites, the Sites are not designed to respond to “Do Not Track” signals received from browsers. To learn more about “Do Not Track” signals, visit www.allaboutdnt.com.

Information collected through the Apps. Depending on your personal device and App permission settings, when using the Apps, we may collect or have access to the following types of information:

• Precise geolocation. When enabled, this may allow the Apps to collect real-time information about the location of your device (GPS and network-based) to provide requested location services and to serve you relevant offers or promotions.
• Stored information and files. These may allow the Apps to read, modify, or delete the contents of your USB storage including photographs, audio and video clips, personal contacts, and address book information.
• Camera. This may allow the Apps to access the camera to scan and input payment method details.
• WiFi connection information. When enabled, this may allow the Apps to view WiFi connections.
• Other. The Apps will send and receive data to and from the Internet, and may view network connections, have full network access, control vibration of your device, or prevent your device from sleeping.

We will store personal information we obtain through the Apps for no longer than is necessary to achieve the purposes for which the information was collected, or as otherwise required or permitted under applicable law.

Information obtained from other parties. Our service providers may provide us with personal information that you submit to them. For example, if you apply for a job using the career portal, purchase a gift card, order catering, provide feedback on a recent visit, make a reservation, place an order with a delivery service, or log in to our restaurant WiFi networks using your social media account, you may submit personal information to one or more of our service providers that may share your information with us. We may combine information that we have about you with information we obtain from other parties. When you submit information to another party, you are subject to that third party’s terms of use and privacy policies, for which we are not responsible.

Information collected from job applicants. Personal information may be collected from you if you apply to work for us, attend a recruitment event, or otherwise participate in the BBI recruitment process. Your personal information may be submitted through or processed by our service providers, who share your information with us. For example, if you choose to import personal information about yourself from other websites (such as LinkedIn) or use a chatbot to ask recruitment-related queries, send communications, or schedule interviews, your information may be processed by one or more of our service providers. We may also collect personal information from our service providers, including via referrals, recruitment agencies, and background screening providers.

As part of your application, you may provide sensitive personal information (for example, information relating to your gender, race or ethnic origin, physical or mental health, or criminal records). If you do provide sensitive personal information, you do so voluntarily and agree that such information may be used as described in this Policy.

Note that if your application is unsuccessful, BBI may still retain and use the information you provided to us for a reasonable period of time to handle issues that may arise in connection with your application, to contact you regarding other employment opportunities, and for BBI’s legitimate business purposes.

Use of Personal Information

We may use personal information we collect through the Services for:

• Facilitating and personalizing your user experience;
• Responding to your requests, inquiries, or job applications;
• Processing your transactions;
• Communicating or marketing to you;
• Conducting contests and processing prizes;
• Assessing your job application, including to manage your profile in our recruitment system, perform pre-screening checks, send transactional SMS messages about the status of your application, and conduct interviews;
• Monitoring and analyzing trends, usage, and activities of users of the Services;
• Improving the Services (e.g. bug fixes and repairing app crashes);
• Complying with applicable laws, regulations, or legal process as well as industry standards and our company policies;
• Preventing, investigating, identifying, or taking any other action with regard to any suspected or actual fraudulent or illegal activity, or activity that violates our policies; or
• Any other purpose, with your consent.

We or our service providers may create de-identified information records from your personal information by excluding certain information that makes the information personally identifiable to you.  This de-identified information may be used to analyze request patterns or usage patterns to enhance our or our service providers' products and services.

Sharing of Personal Information

We may share your personal information with our subsidiaries, business partners, and vendors that provide services on our behalf. For example, we may use Mailchimp to help us keep in touch with you via email. You can view Mailchimp’s privacy policy here. These parties are not meant to use personal information except for the purpose(s) for which it was provided.

In the event of a business transaction, such as if we sell or transfer all or a portion of our business or assets (e.g., further to a merger, reorganization, liquidation, or any other business transaction, including negotiations of such transactions), we reserve the right to disclose any information we obtain through the Services. You acknowledge that such transfers may occur and are permitted by and subject to this Privacy Policy.

Additionally, BBI may disclose personal information when required by subpoena, search warrant, or other legal processes, or in response to activities that are unlawful or a violation of BBI’s rules for use of the Services, or to protect and defend the rights or property of BBI.

Analytics and Advertising

We may use third-party technology to collect and use data in connection with interest-based advertising. These ad technology companies and advertisers may use, store, or access cookies, web beacons, and other storage technologies to collect or receive information from the Services and elsewhere on the Internet and use that information to provide advertising services to us, including interest-based advertising or advertisements targeted to your interests delivered over time and across online services and devices.

We may use certain web analytics services, for example, Google Analytics, to help us understand and analyze how visitors use the Services and to serve ads on our behalf across the Internet. We have implemented Google Analytics Advertising Features such as remarketing with analytics, interest-based advertising, demographics and interests reporting, user segment analysis, and impression reporting. We and third-party vendors, such as Facebook and Google, may use first-party cookies or other first-party identifiers as well as third-party cookies or other third-party identifiers to deliver advertisements, create a profile of you, measure your interests, detect your demographics, detect your location, personalize content, or create an account for management of our customer loyalty program.

You may be able to opt out of certain interest-based advertising using the settings on your browser or mobile device. In addition, the following services or organizations offer tools that you can use to limit or opt out of interest-based advertising:

• Facebook: To change how Facebook can use your data, included in relation to targeted advertising, by log in to your Facebook account and change your privacy or advertising settings as per Facebook’s opt-out instructions.
• Google: For more information on how Google Analytics uses data collected through the Services, visit www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners. To opt out of Google Analytics cookies, visit adssettings.google.com and tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
• LiveRamp: You can learn how to opt out of the use of your personal information by LiveRamp at optout.liveramp.com/opt_out.
• Industry organizations: To opt out of interest-based advertising from companies that participate in the Digital Advertising Alliance or Network Advertising Initiative opt-out programs, please visit youradchoices.com/control and optout.networkadvertising.org.

Your opt-out choice may apply only to the browser or device you are using when you opt out, so you should opt out on each of your browsers and devices if you want to disable interest-based advertising for those browsers and devices. If you opt out, you will still receive ads, but they may not be as relevant to you and your interests. Please note that we do not control how other parties manage their opt-out processes.

Social Networks

Certain features of the Services may permit you to initiate interactions between the Services and other parties, such as social networks (for example, to log in to a restaurant’s WiFi network or invite friends to log-in to Dine Rewards). Using these features may allow both BBI and the other service to access certain information about your use of our Services and theirs, including personal information. You should review the terms, policies, and settings of those third-party services to learn more about their data practices and/or adjust your settings.

Sweepstakes, Contests, and Other Promotions

We may operate sweepstakes, contests, raffles, and similar promotions (each, a “Promotion”) jointly sponsored or offered by other parties; participating in these Promotions may require you to submit certain personal information. If you choose to participate in a Promotion, your personal information may be disclosed to other parties as described in the terms applicable to that Promotion. Insofar as the terms applicable to a particular Promotion conflict with this Privacy Policy, the terms applicable to the Promotion shall control.

Linked Websites

The Services may include links to other websites that are not owned or operated by BBI. This Privacy Policy does not apply to those websites, which may have their own privacy policies or notices that you should review to understand how they may collect, use, or disclose your personal information. BBI is not responsible for the content or privacy practices of any linked websites that are operated by third parties.

The Services also may provide links to other websites operated by BBI or our subsidiaries. Unless indicated otherwise, these websites are not governed by this Privacy Policy. For information on how these websites may collect, use, or disclose your personal information, we encourage you to review the privacy policies posted on the linked websites.

Security

We take reasonable measures to protect personal information from loss, theft, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. Nevertheless, transmission via the Internet and digital storage are not completely secure and we cannot guarantee the security of your information collected through the Services.

Your Choices

Communication preferences and marketing. If you do not wish to receive marketing emails from us, you can opt out of future marketing emails by following the instructions provided in the marketing emails. Opting out of marketing emails will not affect our administrative or transactional emails to you (e.g., emails about your transactions, a job application, or policy changes) which we may send you, for example, to notify you of an issue with an order you have placed with us.

If you provide your phone number through the Services, we or our third party vendor may call or send you a transactional SMS message about the status of or issues with a recent transaction (e.g., an order you have placed with us) or job application. In addition to transactional SMS messages, we may send you marketing communications by SMS. However, we only send marketing SMS messages to those who have expressly opted-in to receiving marketing communications by SMS message. If you no longer wish to receive SMS messages from us, you can opt out of future SMS messages by replying to one of our SMS messages with the word “Stop.”

Additionally, you may request to stop receiving marketing communications by contacting us at privacy@bloominbrands.com.

If you download and utilize our Apps, we may send you transactional push notifications about the status of or issues with a recent transaction (e.g., an order you have placed with us) or job application. In addition to transactional push notifications, we may send you marketing communications by push notification. However, we only send marketing push communications to those who have expressly opted-in to receiving marketing communications by push notification. If you no longer wish to receive push notifications from us, you can opt out of future push notifications by changing the settings on your mobile device.

Accessing, changing, and deleting your personal information. If you are a registered user of the Services, you may review and change certain personal information (e.g., email, password, phone number, payment information) at any time by accessing your account online.

Location tracking. You may be able to enable or disable location tracking through the Apps by adjusting the permissions in your account or device settings. Be aware that if GPS precise location services are disabled, other means of establishing or estimating location (e.g., connecting to or proximity to WiFi, Bluetooth, beacons, or our networks) may persist. Enabling location tracking may enable an App to track your location in the background, which may decrease battery life.

App permissions. You may be able to enable or disable certain features (e.g., allowing the Apps to read, modify, or delete the contents of your USB storage; take pictures and videos; view WiFi connection; send push notifications) by adjusting the permissions in your device settings.

Uninstallation. If you want to terminate our ability to obtain information from you through the Apps, you may uninstall the Apps from your device.

By using the Services, you acknowledge your personal information may be transferred to and processed in jurisdictions outside your own as described in this Privacy Policy. Please be aware that the data protection laws and regulations that apply to your personal information transferred to the United States or other countries may be different from the laws in your country of residence.

Your continued use of the Services after any update to this Privacy Policy will constitute your acceptance of the changes.

Contact Information

You may direct comments or questions regarding this Privacy Policy via email to privacy@bloominbrands.com.

This California Privacy Notice (“Notice”) applies to “Consumers” as defined by the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”) as a supplement to other privacy policies or notices issued by Bloomin’ Brands, Inc. (“Bloomin’” “us” “we” our”).  In the event of a conflict between any other Bloomin’ policy, statement, or notice and this Notice, this Notice will prevail as to California Consumers and their rights under the CCPA. 

In accordance with the CCPA’s requirements, this Notice covers the calendar year 2020 and describes our collection, use, disclosure, and “Sale” of California Consumers’ “Personal Information” or “PI” as defined by the CCPA, as well as the rights California Consumers have under the CCPA.  Terms defined in the CCPA that are used in this Notice have the same meanings as in the CCPA. 

Consistent with the CCPA, job applicants, current and former employees and contractors, and subjects of certain business-to-business communications acting solely in their capacity as representatives of another business, are not considered Consumers for purposes of this Notice or the rights described herein.

Collection and use of personal information

We collect PI about California Consumers as described in the table below.

In addition, we may collect, use, and disclose your PI as required or permitted by applicable law.  We do not treat “Deidentified” data or “Aggregate Consumer Information” as PI, and we reserve the right to convert, or permit others to convert, your PI into Deidentified data or Aggregate Consumer Information.   We may share your PI with certain business partners, service providers, vendors (including those that facilitate interest-based advertising and other advertising and marketing), and other parties as described in the table above.

California privacy rights

Under the CCPA, California Consumers have certain rights which they may exercise independently or through an authorized agent.  CCPA rights requests are subject to an identification and verification process.  We will not fulfill a CCPA request unless we have been provided sufficient information for us to reasonably verify the identity of the requestor and the validity of the request.

Some PI we maintain about Consumers (e.g., clickstream data) is not sufficiently associated with enough PI about the Consumer for us to be able to verify that it is a particular Consumer’s PI.  Accordingly, we will not include such information in response to Consumer requests.  If we cannot comply with a request, we will explain the reasons in our response.  You are not required to create an account with us to make a verifiable request, but you may use your account to do so.  We will use PI provided in your request to verify your identity or authority to make the request and to track and document request responses, unless you also provided the PI to us for another purpose.

Your California Consumer privacy rights are described below. To make a request, please click here to connect with our CCPA portal and provide the following information, including the nature of your request:

• First Name
• Last Name
• Email address
• Telephone number
• Subject: CCPA Request

or call us at 866-265-0174.

In order to verify your identity, you must contact us from the email or phone number associated with your request. We will then follow-up with an outbound communication to you where you may be required to take further action to confirm your identity. Please follow the instructions above and promptly respond to any follow-up inquires. Once your identify has been verified, if you have requested that we provide you with specific pieces of information which BBI has about you, we will promptly respond.

For requests through an authorized agent, contact us via phone, or you may send mail to:

Attention: Legal Counsel
Bloomin’ Brands, Inc.
Suite 500
2202 N. Westshore Blvd
Tampa, FL 33607

Authorized agents must provide either a valid Power of Attorney or proof that you have registered with the California Secretary of State to act on behalf of the identified individual.

We may collect, use, and disclose your PI as required or permitted by applicable law.  Please note we are not obligated to comply with Consumer requests to the extent that doing so would infringe on our, or any other person’s or party’s, rights, or conflict with applicable law.

Disclosure Rights

You have the right to request that we disclose the following information about your PI that we have collected and are maintaining for the 12-month period prior to your request date.  Consumer requests of this nature may be made no more than twice in a 12-month period.

• The categories of PI we have collected about you.
• The categories of sources from which we collected your PI.
• The business or commercial purposes for collecting or Selling your PI.
• The categories of third parties to whom we have shared your PI.
• The specific pieces of PI we have collected about you.
• A list of the categories of PI disclosed for a business purpose in the prior 12 months, or that no disclosure occurred.
• A list of the categories of PI Sold about you in the prior 12 months, or that no Sale occurred.  If we Sold your PI, we will explain:
  • The categories of your PI we have Sold.
  • The categories of third parties to which we Sold PI, by categories of PI Sold for each third party.

You have the right to obtain a transportable copy of your PI that we (1) collected in the 12 months prior to the request date, and (2) currently are maintaining.  Please note that we retain PI for various time periods in accordance with applicable law and our internal recordkeeping policies and procedures.

“Do Not Sell” Rights

While there is not yet a consensus, data practices of third-party cookies and tracking technologies associated with our websites and mobile app may constitute a “Sale” of your PI as defined by the CCPA.  You can exercise control over browser-based cookies by adjusting the settings on your browser, and mobile devices may offer ad limitation choices.  In addition, third party tools may enable you to search for and opt-out of some of these trackers, such as the Ghostery browser plug-in available at https://www.ghostery.com/.   You can learn more about your choices regarding certain kinds of online interest-based advertising in our privacy policy.   We do not represent that these third party tools, programs or statements are complete or accurate, clearing cookies or changing settings may affect your choices and you may have to opt-out separately via each browser and other device you use.

Some browsers have signals that may be characterized as do not track signals, but we do not understand them to operate in that manner or to represent a “do not sell” request by you; accordingly, currently we do not view these signals as a do not sell request.  We understand that various parties are developing do not sell signals and we may recognize certain such signals if we conclude such a program is appropriate.

 We do not knowingly Sell the PI of Consumers. All consumers, regardless of age, may opt out of our promotional emails by clicking the ‘unsubscribe’ link on each of our brand emails.

Deletion Rights

Except to the extent we have a basis for retention under CCPA, you may request that we delete your PI that we have collected directly from you and are maintaining. Our retention rights include, without limitation, to complete transactions and service you have requested, for security purposes, for legitimate internal business purposes, including maintaining business records, to comply with law, to exercise or defend legal claims, and to cooperate with law enforcement.

Non-Discrimination and Financial Incentive Programs

We will not discriminate against you in a manner prohibited by the CCPA because you exercise your CCPA rights. However, we may charge a different price or rate, or offer a different level or quality of goods or services, to the extent that doing so is reasonably related to the value of the applicable data. In addition, we may offer you financial incentives for the collection, Sale, retention, and use of your PI as permitted by the CCPA; such offers may result in reasonably different prices, rates, or quality levels. The material aspects of any financial incentive will be explained and described in its program terms. For details of our current financial incentive program and its terms, including how to opt-in or withdraw your opt-in, program benefits, refer to DineRewards Terms and Conditions.

Please note that participating in incentive programs is entirely optional; participants affirmatively opt into the program, and can opt out of the program (i.e., terminate participation and forgo the ongoing incentives) by following the instructions in the program’s description and terms. We may add or change incentive programs and/or their terms by posting a notice on the program descriptions and terms linked to above, so check them regularly.

Other California Notices

California’s “Shine the Light” law permits California residents to request certain information regarding our disclosure of PI to third parties for their own direct marketing purposes.

We do not share personal information with third parties for their direct marketing purposes without either obtaining your consent or giving you the ability to opt-out.  If you are a California resident, you may request information about our compliance with the Shine the Light law by contacting us at privacy@bloominbrands.com or by sending a letter to

Attention:  Legal Counsel
Bloomin’ Brands, Inc.
Suite 500
2202 N. Westshore Blvd
Tampa, FL  33607

Any such request must include “California Privacy Rights Request” in the first line of the description and include your name, street address, city, state, ZIP code, email address and telephone number.  Please note that we are only required to respond to one request per customer each year, and we are not required to respond to requests made by means other than through this email address or mail address.

Please note that “Shine the Light” rights and CCPA rights are established under different legal regimes and must be exercised separately.

By applying for enrollment in, and participating in the Program, you are agreeing that we may use your information as described in our Privacy Policy. You are also agreeing to review these Terms and Conditions and the Privacy Policy regularly so that you can make informed decisions about your use of our Program Website, your participation in the Program, and the personal information you choose to share with us.

Disputes

You agree that whenever you have a disagreement with us arising out of, connected to, or in any way related to the Terms and Conditions and/or Program, you will send a written notice to us (“Demand”). You agree that the requirements of this Section 19 will apply even to disagreements that may have arisen before you accepted these Terms and Conditions. You must send this Demand to the following address (the “Notice Address”): Bloomin’ Brands, Inc., Attn: Chief Legal Officer, 2202 N. West Shore Blvd., Suite 500, Tampa, FL 33607.

You agree that you will not take any legal action, including filing a lawsuit or demanding arbitration, until ten (10) business days after you send this Demand. If we do not resolve this disagreement to your satisfaction within ten (10) business days, and you intend on taking legal action, you agree that you will file a demand for arbitration with the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”). Please note that for any such filing of a demand for arbitration, you must affect proper service under the rules of the AAA, and that notice to the Notice Address may not suffice. If, for any reason, the AAA is unable to provide the arbitration, you may file your case with any national arbitration company. The arbitrator shall apply the AAA Consumer-Related Disputes Supplementary Procedure as effective September 15, 2005. You agree that the arbitrator will have sole and exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute you have with us. You understand that the Federal Arbitration Act allows for the enforcement of arbitration agreements, and you agree that it applies.

You agree that you will not file any lawsuit against us in any state or federal court. You waive any right to a trial by a jury or a state or federal judge. You agree that if you do sue us in state or federal court, and we bring a successful motion to compel arbitration, you must pay all fees and costs incurred by us in court, including reasonable attorney’s fees. You agree that you will not file a class action or collective action against us, and that you will not participate in a class action or collective action against us. You agree that you will not join your claims to those of any other person. Notwithstanding any other provision in these Terms and Conditions, if this class action waiver is invalidated, then the agreement to arbitrate is null and void, as though it were never entered into. Any dispute at that time in arbitration will be dismissed without prejudice and refiled in a court. Under no circumstances do you or we agree to class or collective procedures in arbitration or the joinder of claims in arbitration.

We agree that we will not file a class or collective action against you, and that we will not participate in a class or collective action against you, for any disagreement arising out of, connected to, or in any way related to these Terms and Conditions and/or Program. We agree that we will submit all disputes with you to arbitration before the Arbitrator.

Notwithstanding any other provision herein, you will not be bound by any changes we make to this Section 19 unless you are provided prior notice by mail, e-mail, text, or other direct notification and do not cancel your enrollment. If you do cancel your enrollment in the Program, you will still be bound to the most recent Terms and Conditions operative when your enrollment was active.

Choice of Law

All issues and questions concerning the construction, validity, interpretation and enforceability of these Terms and Conditions, or the rights and obligations of the Member, Bloomin’ Brands and Administrator in connection with the Program and these Terms and Conditions, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Florida, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law rules (whether of the State of Florida or any other jurisdiction), which would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Florida. MEMBER HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE PROGRAM, THE GRANTING OF REWARDS AND THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING AND WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE.

Miscellaneous Terms

If at any time any provision of these Terms and Conditions is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction as being illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect, such provision will be deemed to be removed from these Terms and Conditions and replaced with a lawful provision most closely approximating the intent of the stricken provision (except as noted in Section 19); and, the illegality/invalidity/unenforceability of any stricken provision shall not affect the legality or validity or enforceability of any other provision of these Terms and Conditions (except as noted in Section 19). No delay by BBI in enforcing the provisions of these Terms and Conditions in any given instance will in any way prejudice or restrict the rights of BBI nor will any waiver of rights by BBI in any given instance operate as a waiver of any subsequent breach by any person of any provision of these Terms and Conditions.

Disclosure Applicable to California Residents: Non-Discrimination and Financial Incentive Programs

We will not discriminate against you in a manner prohibited by the CCPA because you exercise your CCPA rights. However, we may charge a different price or rate, or offer a different level or quality of goods or services, to the extent that doing so is reasonably related to the value of the applicable data. In addition, we may offer you financial incentives for the collection, Sale, retention, and use of your PI as permitted by the CCPA; such offers may result in reasonably different prices, rates, or quality levels. The material aspects of any financial incentive will be explained and described in its program terms.

Entire Agreement

These Terms and Conditions and our Privacy Policy constitute the sole and entire agreement between you and us with respect to the Program and your participation in it, and any and all prior agreements with respect to any other rewards program are superseded by these Terms and Conditions. These Terms and Conditions and the Program are governed by the state and US laws, without regard to its conflicts of law principles. Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the Terms and Conditions shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of the Terms and Conditions is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, you and we agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to your and our intentions as reflected in the provision, and that the other provisions of the Terms and Conditions remain in full force and effect.
