In addition:

  • we may allow users of our websites, applications and social media pages to share comments, postings, testimonials (including ratings or reviews), or other information.

  • Interest-Based Advertising. Kimberly-Clark participates in interest-based (on-line behavior) advertising.

  • Other Third Parties. We may share non-personal information with other third parties that are not described above. When we do so we may aggregate or de-identify the information so that a third party would not be likely to link data to you, your computer, or your device.

De-identify means that we attempt to remove or change certain pieces of information that might be used to link data to a particular person.

This may include sharing your information with government entities, or third parties in response to subpoenas, court orders, other legal process, or as we believe is necessary to exercise our legal rights, to defend against legal claims that have been brought against us, or to defend against possible legal claims that we determine in our sole discretion might be brought against us.
  • Business Transactions. Circumstances may also arise where Kimberly-Clark decides to sell, buy, merge or otherwise reorganise its business. Such a transaction may involve the disclosure of personal information to prospective or actual buyers or sellers. It is our practice to seek appropriate protection for the disclosure of such information in these types of transactions.
