Your
privacy is important.
- At Nutrophy, we know that your privacy is important to
you. It's important to us, too. That's why we want you
to know about the personal information we collect, how
we use that information and with whom it may be shared.
You're always in control.
- The only personal information that
we collect is information that you give us when you fill
out your questionnaire,
register and when you purchase. We use that information
to service your account and to personalize your experience
at Nutrophy. We'll never share that information with third
parties interested in e-mailing you without your consent.
To see (or change) your information, just visit the Preference
page at My Nutrophy (you will need to do this for each
account, if you have more than one account).
Here's the
information we gather:
- When you fill out the HealthStyle™ questionnaire,
we ask you personal questions regarding your diet and health
habits. This information is used by NEX™– the
Nutrophy Expert System – to assess your personal
HealthStyle™ and then to make recommendations
which are suited to you. The information that you provide,
and any assessments that are made with this information,
remains private and should only be accessed by you using
your unique user_ID and password.
- When you register at the site, we ask for certain basic
information to service your account: name and e-mail address.
If you decide to make a purchase, we then ask you for your
shipping and billing addresses, phone number and payment
information. You can change any of this information at
any time by going to your Account page.
- You have the option to use certain services, such as
Tell a Friend, which may require you to provide us with
transmittal information for your friends or family. We
only use this information to provide the requested service.
- You have the option within the site, to order bodytrax™ bio-fluids
screens, which are used to amplify and make more accurate
your personal HealthStyle™ assessment. The results
of these screens are posted in your personal MyNutrophy
account, where your HealthStyle™ profile will
be updated to reflect the new information, and an encrypted
e-mail will be sent to you notifying you that the results
are available for you to access using your personal_ID
and password.
- We also keep track of customer purchases, traffic patterns
and related site usage inside our website to help us shape
our recommendations and improve our web page and site design.
- From time to time, we may randomly contact customers
about participating in a survey about our website. These
surveys are optional, and we use the responses to help
us identify customer concerns and needs so that we can
improve or develop new products and services.
Why your transactions are secure - We use state-of-the-art encryption technology to safeguard your transactions.
The technology used is SSL (Secure Socket Layer) which
is supported by both the Netscape and Internet Explorer
web browsers that are version 4.0 or newer. Your information,
including your credit card information, is encrypted and
cannot be read as it travels over the Internet.
- We never display your full credit card information.
- Your account is password-protected. You cannot submit
an order or view your personal information without your
password.
- The site will sign you out automatically if your session
remains inactive for more than 2 hours. If you share a
computer, we recommend that you always sign out before
leaving it unattended.
What you should know about cookies:
- Cookies are small pieces of information
that we send through your browser to your hard drive.
With "auto
sign-in" turned on, a cookie lets us recognize you
and provide a more meaningful and personalized experience
when you come back to our site.
- Most web browsers are set to accept
cookies automatically, but you can change this setting.
See your browser's "help
topics" to learn how to change the setting.
- If you decide not to accept cookies,
you'll still be able to access the site and access all
your account information.
However, cookies allow you to take full advantage of the
features of Nutrophy, so we recommend that you keep them "on."
With whom is information shared?
- We may release specific personal information for the
following reasons:
- We use outside companies to provide you with some of
the products and services you use on our site as well as
for managing some of our internal operations such as databases,
data analysis and e-mails. As a result, these companies
do have access to the specific information necessary to
provide you with your goods or services, but we require
them to keep this information confidential and not to use
it for any other reason.
- We will release your personal information to the proper
persons when we believe, in good faith, that we are required
to comply with a law or legal process, enforce our user
agreements, or protect the rights, property or safety of
Nutrophy or other persons or entities
Aggregate Statistics
- From time to time we provide aggregate
statistics about our members, site traffic, sales
and other site-related
information to reputable companies. "Aggregate" is
the key word here. You can be assured that we never
include information that allows these companies to
identify you
individually.
Children's Online Privacy
Protection Act (COPPA)
- Nutrophy is a website
directed to the general public. We do not
knowingly collect information from children
under

Consent
- By using Nutrophy.com and providing us with your personal
information, you are accepting the privacy practices described
in this policy statement.
- We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time.
Please check back here occasionally. You will always find
the latest version posted here. Updates to our Privacy
Policy that would affect how we treat your personal information
will not apply to information collected before we made
the update, unless we first obtain your consent.
- Please note that because
a customer information database is customarily
considered a business asset, Nutrophy shall
have the right to transfer it in a merger or sale
of some
or all of its company or in an action for bankruptcy.
Your information will continue to be treated
in accordance with
this Privacy Policy by the acquiring or merged company
unless you are notified and provided an opportunity
to opt of any changes.
