In providing us with your information this gives us a ‘soft opt-in’ so that we can use your contact details to contact you in the future with related products or services.  If you wish to opt out of this, please use this email and type the words ‘OPT OUT’. This will mean that you no longer receive any reminder emails for placing future orders, however for parents, this will also mean that your online account is deleted, and you will have to re-register to order milk at a later date.

Milk4Life uses email to communicate with parents who have registered on our website and schools who order directly with us. We use email to advise parents of cut off dates for milk ordering and to inform schools of any changes or information that may be of interest to them. Our policy is to keep emails to a minimum and only communicate with our customers when we have something worthwhile to say. We do not want to send you any Spam. We believe that this is a valuable service for customers. Should any customers prefer not to receive such communications, please contact us. Parents will have to supply an email address to register with us and this will then be part of your log in to our website to access your account.

Milk4Life operates most of its social media communication via Twitter or Facebook. Milk4Life reserves the right to monitor any posting and either request members to edit or delete the post or delete it itself.
