GDPR Privacy Rights (For EU Residents Only)
We will only process your Personal Information if we have a lawful basis for doing so. Lawful bases for processing include consent, contractual necessity and our “legitimate interests” or the legitimate interest of others, as further described below.
Legitimate Interests. We process some of our user’s Personal Information when doing so is necessary for Company’s legitimate interests and not for the purpose of furthering our legitimate interests. For example, we process Personal Information for network and information security purposes, to develop new products and services and for administrative, fraud detection and legal purposes.
Consent. We may process your Personal Information after obtaining your consent to do so in certain circumstances.
You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. You can do this by contacting us using the contact details at the end of this Privacy Policy.
Contractual Necessity. We may process any of your Personal Information when it is necessary for the performance of a contract to which you are a party (e.g. to process your payment and to deliver the products you purchase).
**Legal Obligation.**We may process any of your Personal Information where we are required to do so by law.
In accordance with GDPR, residents of the EU can exercise certain rights in regards to their Personal Information processed by us:
- Right of Access: You have the right to access Personal Information we hold about you and information regarding our processing of it.
- Right to Rectification: You have the right to request that any inaccurate or incomplete Personal Information held by Company is corrected.

- Right not to be subject to Automated Decision-Making: You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effect or similarly significantly affects you.
These rights may be limited in some situations – for example, where we can demonstrate that we have a legal requirement to process your Personal Information.
In order to exercise any of the rights set forth above, please contact us at the contact information provided at the end of this Privacy Policy.
If you are located in the EEA and believe we maintain your Personal Information subject to GDPR standards, you can make a complaint to the relevant supervisory authority, in particular, either in the Member State of your habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement.
California Privacy Rights (For California Residents Only)
The California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”) requires us to disclose categories of Personal Information we collect and how we use it, the categories of sources from whom we collect Personal Information, and the third parties with whom we share it, which we have explained above.
We are also required to communicate information about rights California consumers have under California law. You may exercise the following rights:
Right to Know and Access. You may submit a verifiable request for information regarding the: (1) categories of Personal Information we collect, use, or share; (2) purposes for which categories of Personal Information are collected or used by us; (3) categories of sources from which we collect Personal Information; and (4) specific pieces of Personal Information we have collected about you.
Right to Equal Service. We will not discriminate against you if you exercise your privacy rights.
Right to Delete. You may submit a verifiable request to close your account and we will delete Personal Information about you that we have collected.
Request that a Business that Sells Your Personal Information Refrain from Selling Your Personal Information. You have the right to opt-out of the sale of your Personal Information. We do not sell the Personal Information of our users.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at the contact information provided at the end of this Privacy Policy and we will consider your request in accordance with applicable laws.
In order to exercise your rights under the CCPA, you must submit a verifiable request. This is a request for information submitted to us where you have:
- Provided sufficient information to allow us to verify your identity (and in some cases, your authority to make the request on behalf of another individual); and
- Made the request in a manner that demonstrates a good faith belief that the request is entitled to be honored.
A request is verifiable when it (1) provides information we can reasonably use to verify you are the person about whom we collected Personal Information (including information about your account with us or previous orders you have made with us), and (2) describes your request with sufficient detail that allows us to understand, evaluate and respond to your request.
We cannot respond to your request or provide you Personal Information if we cannot (1) verify your identity or (2) verify your authority to make the request on behalf of another and confirm that you may receive the information requested. You do not need an account with us to make a verifiable request. We will only use additional Personal Information provided in a request to verify your identity or your authority to make the request.
Generally, we will not ask you for additional information to verify you beyond what is already required under this Privacy Policy to make a purchase or interact with our Website. Any additional information you provide for verification purposes will only be used for that purpose.
You can also designate an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf by providing the authorized agent with power of attorney pursuant to California Probate Code sections 4000 to 4465. We may deny requests from agents that do not submit proof they have been authorized by you to act on your behalf.
For instructions on exercising sale opt-out rights, see the section titled “Tracking Technologies” above.
Data Security
We have implemented measures designed to secure your Personal Information from accidental loss and from unauthorized access, use, alteration and disclosure. All Personal Information you provide to us is stored on our secure servers behind firewalls.
The safety and security of your information also depends on you. Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password for access to certain parts of our Website, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share your password with anyone. We urge you to be careful about giving out information in public areas of the Website like health support groups. The information you share in public areas may be viewed by any user of the Website.
Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Although we do our best to protect your Personal Information, we cannot guarantee the security of your Personal Information transmitted through our Website. Any transmission is at your own risk. Once we have received your information, we will use strict procedures and security features to try to prevent unauthorized access.
Changes to Our Privacy Policy
We reserve the right to amend this Privacy Policy at our discretion and at any time. When we make changes to this Privacy Policy, we will post the updated notice on the Website and update the notice’s effective date. Your continued use of our Website following the posting of changes constitutes your acceptance of such changes.
