Privacy Policy Wellness Weight-Loss(referred to herein as "WW," "we," "us," or collectively, as "company") is committed to maintaining the privacy of your information and to safeguard your privacy online. Please read the information below about our use of your personal information. This statement is part of our terms and conditions. If you have any questions, comments, or requests regarding privacy, please contact us as follows: Wellness Weight-Loss P. O. Box 187 Port Hueneme, CA 93041 Telephone: (805) 642-8440 e-mail: [email protected] Collection of Information. We collect non-personally-identifiable information in a number of ways, including tracking your activities through your IP address or most-recently-visited URL. We do not collect any personally identifiable information about you unless you voluntarily provide it to us. You may do this, for example, by filling out a form or survey, entering a contest or sweepstakes, registering your e-mail address with us, or e-mailing us. We do not wish to obtain personally-identifiable information from children who are using our site unsupervised. Thus, we ask children under 18 to obtain the consent of their parent or guardian before providing us with any personally identifiable information. Disclosure of Information. Unless we tell you otherwise, we do not sell or rent your personally-identifiable information to any third parties unless we have received your approval to do so. However, we do sell and rent aggregated (anonymous) information about our users generally. Use of Information. We use personally-identifiable and non-personally-identifiable information for internal marketing purposes and for site administration. However, unless we tell you otherwise, we usually do not use personally-identifiable information collected from the web site to send unsolicited mailings to you. Of course, if applicable, we do use personally identifiable information to perform the services for which such data was collected (e.g., if you sign up for an e-mail newsletter, we will send the e-mail newsletter to the address you provide us). We may also use personally-identifiable information about you to deliver information to you that targets your interests. This information could include informing you about a new medical report, a new product development, a new clinical study, and the like. This information will be available to you at your request only. Third Party Sites. This policy only addresses our activities from our servers. Other sites (including those third party sites or services which we co-brand) may have their own policies and practices, which we do not control and thus are not addressed by this policy. Review and Removal of Your Personally Identifiable Data. If you provide us with personally-identifiable information, usually we will provide you with a way to review the information we have on file and either make changes or remove such data. To the extent that such information is also stored in other databases, we cannot always ensure that such corrections or deletions will reach the other databases. If you wish to have information you provided to us removed from our records, please provide us with the information as you submitted it to us, as follows: Wellness Weight-Loss P. O. Box 187 Port Hueneme, CA 93041 Telephone: 805-642-8440 e-mail: [email protected] We will use all reasonable efforts to ensure that your information is removed from our records. Cookies and Other Tracking Methods. When you view our web site, we might store some information on your computer. This information will be in the form of a "cookie" or similar file. Cookies are small pieces of information stored on your computer hard drive, not on our site. Cookies do not spy on you or otherwise invade your privacy, and they cannot invade your hard drive and steal information. Rather, they help you navigate a web site as easily as possible. Cookies can help us provide information that is targeted to your interests, and they allow us to better understand how you like to use our site, which in turn helps us focus our resources on features that are the most popular. You are always free to decline our cookies if your browser permits, but some parts of our site, including our Registered Member pages, may not work properly in that case. Security. We use industry-standard methods to protect your personally-identifiable information from unauthorized access. We store such information on a computer behind our "firewall" in a secure location, and we restrict the number of employees internally who can access such data. The Wellness Weight-Loss web site uses strong encryption technology from PixelGate.net to ensure the security of its users' information. Encryption is a method of scrambling messages so they cannot be read without decryption keys. The length of the key used to encrypt messages is a good indication of the amount of effort needed to decrypt that message. Any software with encryption features having key lengths over 40 bits is considered strong encryption by the U.S. Government for export purposes. The Wellness Weight-Loss web site uses 128-bit encryption, the highest encryption standard available on the Internet today. Users visiting our site will be able to submit credit card numbers or other personal information to our site with assurance that they are interacting with the Wellness Weight-Loss web site (and not an impostor) and that the information which they are sending to us cannot be intercepted or decrypted by anyone other than the intended recipient. This web site provides wellness related information that concerns fitness, health and medical information for educational purposes only. Wellness Weight-Loss is not directly or indirectly engaged in the practice of medicine. None of the information provided to you on this web site should serve as a substitute for the advice of your health care professional or physician, nor should it be treated as medical opinions, as medical diagnoses, or as suggested courses of treatment. WellnessGalaxy and its suppliers significantly limit their liability in the terms and conditions you agreed to in the user agreement And in Wellness Weight-Loss policies, copies of which are provided on this web site and linked to from this page below. Please review these terms and conditions carefully before using this web site. Copyright (c) 2003 Wellness Weight-Loss. All Rights Reserved.
