As you may know, we produce and mail a catalog several times each year. We send this catalog to many of our online customers because we'd like you to be aware of all the great new products that become available each season. If you would prefer not to ever receive catalog mailings from Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, please visit the Contact Us section of this Web site and indicate that you would like to be removed from our mailing list.

We also regularly aggregate our sales and market information based on our customers' purchases. We use this information to be certain that we are offering the right products at the right time. We like to understand what regions of the country buy more products from us, what products are the most popular, and generally how our business is doing. At no time is any personally identifiable information made available in these market aggregates.

At no time will we ever release your credit card information to anyone!
