To exercise any of these rights, please email us at RichelieuIT@Richelieufoods.com. To appeal a decision regarding a consumer rights request please email us at RichelieuCS@Richelieufoods.com.

When we detect such a signal, we will make reasonable efforts to respect your choices indicated by a GPC setting as required by applicable law.

Nevada provides its residents with a limited right to opt out of certain personal data sales. Residents who wish to exercise their sale opt-out rights may submit a request to this designated address: RichelieuCS@Richelieufoods.com However, please know we do not currently sell data triggering that statute's opt-out requirements.
