PRIVACY POLICY
We share your concern about the protection of
your personal information online. Please take some time to
review our policy regarding this important subject. Our Privacy
Policy includes examples of the types of personal information
that we collect and the kinds of organizations and companies
with whom we share such information. These examples are illustrative
and should not be considered a complete list of our information
collection efforts, our use of the information or our policies
regarding sharing our information. We intend to comply with
all applicable federal and state laws that may restrict the
types of information that we may disclose about you or require
us to provide you with notice about our collection practices.
INFORMATION THAT WE GATHER
We gather two kinds of information
about users of this website:
Personal information that individual
users provide when registering as members of Weight Thinkers™ or
to purchase products or voluntarily at certain other points
in this website; and
Tracking information that is automatically collected about
all visitors to this site.
MEMBERSHIP
We don’t require you to become a member of
Weight Thinkers™ in
order to look at this website, but if you wish to take advantage
of the services that we provide our members, then we require
you to become a member. To become a member you will need to
supply us with your e-mail and postal addresses, choose a unique
user name and password and give us some additional information
about yourself as well as pay membership fees.
SURVEYS AND POLLS
At times you may be asked to participate
in surveys and polls that are generally aimed at obtaining
general information. Because information obtained in these
surveys is connected with individual users and is used by us
to improve our services to our members, participation is voluntary.
TRACKING INFORMATION
Tracking data consists of both individual
and aggregated information and is automatically gathered using “cookies.”
What is a cookie? A cookie is a small data file containing
information such as a user’s login name that is written
to the user’s hard drive by a web server and used to
track the pages visited. The cookies that we use are encoded
and contain a unique digital signature to prevent tampering.
Cookies do not contain passwords. The individual information
gathered in this manner is used only for our internal purposes,
such as accessing a member’s account information. We
also use the information on an aggregate basis to track traffic
patterns on our sites and to track readership of the information
on our website and participation in our programs.
You can control your browser’s settings regarding cookies
by selecting “Internet Options” or “Preferences” in
the menu bar of your browser. This will allow you to prevent
your browser from accepting new cookies, have your browser
notify you when you receive a new cookie or disable cookies
altogether. However, because cookies allow you navigate our
website with greater ease, without having to log on constantly
by entering your User Name and password, we recommend that
you always leave them turned on.
DISCLOSURES PERMITTED BY LAW
We do not sell or disclose personal
information about you that we collect as described above to
anyone except to provide you with products or services either
(1) when we have your permission, or (2) under the following
circumstances:
We provide the information on a confidential basis to unaffiliated
companies whom we engage as contractors or agents to provide
services for us, such as maintaining software or sending direct
mail. Information will be shared with such contractors only
to the extent reasonably necessary for them to perform services
on our behalf and pursuant to confidentiality agreements;
We will furnish information in response to subpoenas, court
orders or legal process from law enforcement agencies, state
or federal regulators or private litigants; and
If in the unlikely event that we sell or otherwise transfer
all of our assets related to any website that we own or operate
and any product or service that we offer, we will require the
purchaser to honor our current Privacy Policy until the purchaser
notifies you of changes that they are making to our Privacy
Policy and permits you to exercise any rights that you may
have under applicable law to limit disclosures about you.
You can correct or update the information we collected from
you during registration by notifying our customer service department.
SECURITY
We limit access to personal information about you
to those employees that we determine need the information to
provide information, products or services to you. We maintain
physical, electronic and procedural safeguards that comply
with federal standards to guard your personal information.
However, no security system is impenetrable. We cannot guarantee
the security of our servers or that information that you supply
will not be intercepted while being transmitted over the Internet.
CONTACTS WITH THIRD PARTIES
We partner with other organizations
and professionals to provide specific services to our members.
When a member chooses to take advantage of a service provided
by such a third party, that member makes direct contact with
the third party. Such other organizations and professionals
have their own privacy policies and data collection practices,
which are not covered by our privacy policy.
QUESTIONS?
Questions or comments regarding this Privacy Policy
should be directed to Weight Thinkers™ at 1158 26th Street #446, Santa Monica, CA 90403.
