Privacy Policy
Effective October 22, 2004
Privacy Notice Table Of Contents:
Our Commitment To Privacy
Your privacy is important to us. To better protect your privacy we provide
this notice explaining our online information practices and the choices
you can make about the way your information is collected and used. To make
this
notice easy to find, we make it available on our homepage and at every
point where personally identifiable information may be requested.
The Information We Collect:
HealthyLifespan/Life Extension Nutrition Center gathers two types of information
about users:
- Information that users provide
through optional, voluntary submissions. These are voluntary submissions
to order products, to reserve consultations,
to receive
our electronic newsletters, to participate in our message boards or forums,
to email a friend, and from participation in polls and surveys
- Information
HealthyLifespan/Life Extension Nutrition Center gathers through aggregated
tracking information derived mainly by tallying page views
throughout our sites. This information allows us to better tailor our content
to readers'.
Under no circumstances does HealthyLifespan/Life Extension Nutrition
Center divulge any information about an individual user to a third party.
Optional Voluntary Information
We offer the following free services, which require some type of voluntary
submission of personal information by users:
1. Electronic newsletters
(Dispatches)
We will offer a free electronic
newsletter to users. HealthyLifespan/Life Extension Nutrition Center
gathers the email addresses
of users who voluntarily subscribe.
Users may remove themselves from this mailing
list by following the link provided in every newsletter
that points users
to the subscription
management
page.
Users can also subscribe to the newsletters
at the time of registration.
2. Message boards/forums
Users of the site's Message Boards and Forums must
register separately for these services
(both are free of charge)
in order to post messages,
although
they do not have to register to visit
the site. During registration the user is required to supply
a username,
password, and email address.
3. "E-mail this to a friend" Service
Our site users can choose to electronically
forward a link, page, or documents
to someone else by clicking "e-mail this to a friend".
The user must provide their email address,
as well as that of the recipient. This
information
is used only in the case of transmission
errors and, of course, to let the recipient
know who sent the email.
The information
is not
used for
any other
purpose.
4. Polling
We may offer interactive polls
to users so they can easily
share their
opinions
with other users
and
see what
our audience thinks
about important issues.
Opinions or other responses
to polls are aggregated and are
not identifiable to
any
particular user. HealthyLifespan/Life
Extension Nutrition Center may use a system to "tag" users
after they have voted, so they can vote only once on a particular question.
This
tag is not
correlated with information
about individual users.
5. Surveys
HealthyLifespan/Life Extension
Nutrition Center may occasionally
conduct user
surveys to better
target
our content to our
audience. We sometimes
share the
aggregated demographic
information in these surveys with our
sponsors, advertisers
and partners. We
never share
any of this information
about specific individuals
with any third party.
Our Commitment To Children's
Privacy:
Protecting the privacy
of the very young is
especially important.
For that reason,
we never collect or
maintain information
at
our
website from those
we actually know are
under 13, and no part
of our
website is
structured
to attract
anyone under 13.
Cookies
We may place a text
file called a "cookie" in the browser files
of your computer. The cookie itself does
not contain Personal Information although
it will enable us to relate your use
of this site to information that you have specifically and knowingly
provided. But the
only personal
information
a cookie
can contain is information you supply
yourself. A cookie can't read data off your hard disk or read cookie
files created by
other sites.
HealthyLifespan/Life
Extension Nutrition Center uses cookies
to track user traffic patterns.
You can refuse cookies by turning them off in your
browser. If you've set your browser to warn you
before accepting cookies, you will receive the warning
message with each
cookie. You do not need to have
cookies turned on to use this site.
However, you do need cookies to participate
actively
in message
boards, forums, polling
and surveys.
Use Of Information
HealthyLifespan/Life Extension
Nutrition Center
uses any information voluntarily
given by our
users to
enhance their
experience in
our network of sites, whether
to provide interactive
or personalized elements on the sites or to
better prepare
future content based
on the
interests of
our users.
As stated above,
we use information
that
users
voluntarily
provide in order to send
out electronic
newsletters
and to enable
users to participate
in polls, surveys, message
boards, and
forums. We send out newsletters
to
subscribers
on a regular
schedule
(depending
on the newsletter),
and occasionally
send out special
editions
when we think
subscribers might
be
particularly
interested in something
we are doing.
HealthyLifespan/Life
Extension
Nutrition Center
never shares
newsletter mailing lists with
any
third parties,
including
advertisers,
sponsors or partners.
We use tracking
information
to determine which
areas of
our sites users
like and don't like
based
on traffic
to
those areas.
We do not
track what
individual
users read,
but rather how well
each page
performs
overall.
This
helps
us continue
to build
a better service for you.
We track
search terms entered
in Search
function
as one of many measures
of
what interests
our users.
But we don't
track
which terms
a particular user
enters.
Sharing Of
Information HealthyLifespan/Life
Extension
Nutrition
Center
uses the above-described
information
to
tailor
our content
to suit
your needs.
We will
not share
information
about
individual
users with
any third
party,
except to comply
with applicable
law or
valid legal
process
or to protect
the personal
safety
of our
users or the public.
Our Commitment
To Data
Security
To prevent
unauthorized
access,
maintain
data
accuracy, and ensure
the
correct use of
information,
we
have put in
place
appropriate physical,
electronic,
and
managerial procedures
to
safeguard and secure
the
information
we
collect online.
Opt-Out
Policy
We
give users
options wherever
necessary and
practical. Such
choices include:
- Opting not to register to receive
our electronic newsletters.
- Opting not to participate in
certain interactive areas, which completely
alleviates the need to gather any personally identifiable information
from our users
How To Contact Us
If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will
post those changes on
this page so that you are always aware of what information we collect,
how
we use it, and under
what circumstances we
disclose it.

or concerns about these
privacy policies,
