We don’t ask you for personal information unless we truly need it. (We can’t stand services that ask you for things like your gender or income level for no apparent reason.)
We don’t share your personal information with anyone except to comply with the law, develop our products, or protect our rights.
We don’t store personal information on our servers unless required for the on-going operation of one of our services.
If you have questions about deleting or correcting your personal data please contact our support team.
Wellness Media Inc. (“Wellness Media”) operates the website for Wellness-Media.com. It is Wellness Media’s policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our websites.
Website Visitors
Like most website operators, Wellness Media collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. Wellness Media’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Wellness Media’s visitors use its website. From time to time, Wellness Media may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.
Wellness Media also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on Wellness-Media.com blogs. Wellness Media only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below, except that blog commenter IP addresses and email addresses are visible and disclosed to the administrators of the blog where the comment was left.
Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information
Certain visitors to Wellness Media’s websites choose to interact with Wellness Media in ways that require Wellness Media to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Wellness Media gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who sign up for a member account at Wellness-Media.com to provide a username and email address. Those who engage in transactions with Wellness Media – by purchasing access to trundle sales or affiliate promotions – are asked to provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to process those transactions. In each case, Wellness Media collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with Wellness Media. Wellness Media does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.
Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information
Wellness Media discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on Wellness Media’s behalf or to provide services available at Wellness Media’s websites, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using Wellness Media’s websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. Wellness Media will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations, as described above, Wellness Media discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when Wellness Media believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of Wellness Media, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of an Wellness Media website and have supplied your email address, Wellness Media may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what’s going on with Wellness Media and our products. We primarily use our various product blogs to communicate this type of information, so we expect to keep this type of email to a minimum. If you send us a request (for example via a support email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. Wellness Media takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.
