When you use this web site, our Internet Service Provider makes a record of your visit and logs the following information for statistical purposes - your server address, your top level domain name (for example .com, .gov, .au, .uk etc), the date and time of your visit to the site, the pages accessed and documents downloaded, the previous site visited, and the type of browser used. This is used purely for statistical purposes to show broken links in our website, bottlenecks, and other site problems. We use this information to redesign for efficiency of use. No attempt will be made to identify users or your browsing activities except, in the unlikely event of an investigation, where a law enforcement agency may exercise a warrant to inspect the Internet Service Provider's logs.

Your information will only be used for the purpose for which you have provided it and we will not use or disclose your email address for any other purpose.

All confidential information collected from you is done securely through using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology. This ensures that all information is sent privately and securely to our server only.

 

We do not store your credit card information on the web server. Once your internet order has been processed, all details are deleted from the web server.

Privacy and Child Protection Policy

 

Supplement Online cares about the privacy of each user of its Web site ("user" or "you"), including those who trust us enough to place orders. In order to protect the privacy of its users, Supplement Online has adopted the following policy:

 

  1. General Information

When you use the Web site some basic general information is collected. This information is used to improve the Web site and make your use of the Web site as enjoyable and efficient as possible.

 

This general information is used internally in connection with Supplement Online business, including Supplement Online personal, marketing and advertising efforts.

 

  1. Personal Information

When you set up an account on the Web site or purchase an item from the Web site, we collect personal information (which you provide) that may include your: (i) first and last name, (ii) billing address, (iii) shipping address, (iv) other shipping addresses, (v) email address, (vi) phone number, (vii) credit card account number, (viii) items purchased from us, and (ix) browsing, buying and selling patterns (collectively, "Personal Information"). 

 

  1. Use/Sharing of Personal Information

Your name, shipping and billing addresses, and credit card number(s) are used by Supplement Online in order to provide you with the goods that you purchase on the Web site. We use your email address to provide you with information about your order and its status, and we may occasionally send out emails, including newsletters, to people who have placed an order online.

 

Your phone number is used by Supplement Online in the event that our representatives need to contact you about an order you have placed. It is also used when marking packages for delivery, to ensure you are contactable by our delivery service should delivery difficulties be experienced.

 

Personal Information is used internally in connection with Supplement Online business, including Supplement Online promotional, marketing and advertising efforts, in a manner which does not readily identify a user to any third party.

 

Credit Card Security

 

The Internet is a vast network of computers. Because the data passes from computer to computer, some Internet shoppers worry that unauthorized persons may intercept the data and gain access to credit card numbers, but shopping on a secure site is actually safer than handing a credit card to a waiter in a restaurant. Taking the steps below will lower the chances of interception of your credit card number:

 

Limit you’re online shopping to Internet merchants, such as Supplement Online, with sites equipped with Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology. SSL prevents unauthorized people from intercepting your data.

 

Use a browser, such as FireFox or Internet Explorer, which supports SSL. These browsers show a symbol in the status bar, such as a key or lock, when you are on a site that uses SSL. Most banks will cover the cost of fraud resulting from unauthorized use of your credit card or may limit your liability.

 

Credit card information collected by Supplement Online is encrypted through Secure Sockets Layer before it is transmitted over the Internet.

 

Supplement Online fully cooperates with law agencies in identifying those who use our services for illegal activities, and may in its sole discretion disclose Personal Information or other information to satisfy any law, regulation, subpoena, or government request. Supplement Online reserves the right to release Personal Information or other information about users who we believe are engaged in illegal activities or are otherwise in violation of our Terms of Use, even without a subpoena, warrant or court order, if we believe in our sole discretion that such disclosure is necessary or appropriate to operate the Web site, or to protect the rights or property of Supplement Online, its affiliates, or any of their officers, directors, or employees, agents, third-party content providers, suppliers, sponsors, or licensors. Supplement Online also reserves the right to report to law enforcement agencies any activities we reasonably believe in our sole discretion to be unlawful.

 

  1. Collecting Information From Children Younger than 16

Supplement Online does not knowingly collect or use any Personal Information from children younger than 16 years of age without obtaining verifiable parental consent.

 

  1. Miscellaneous

Supplement Online wants you to be aware that when you click on links (including advertising banners), which take you to third-party Web sites, you will be subject to such third parties' privacy policies. While we support the protection of privacy on the Internet, Supplement Online  expressly disclaims any and all liability for the actions of third parties, including without limitation actions relating to the use and/or disclosure of Personal Information by third parties.

 

Our Privacy and Child Protection Policy is subject to change. In the event of any change, we will provide notice of such change on this page.
