However, in order for you to take advantage of particular opportunities provided through the Service, we may require that you furnish personal information. When you register your account, sign up for newsletters, complete forms for optional programs, surveys, contests and other entries, and through communications transmitted through VitaWerks, applications and your use of the VitaWerks mobile application, we collect information including your name, address, phone number, and email address.

Cookies and Other Technologies

When you visit websites on the Internet, your browser may automatically transmit information to the websites you visit throughout every visit. Like many websites, we may use “cookies” to collect information. A cookie is a small data file that we transfer to your computer’s hard disk for record-keeping purposes. We may utilize persistent cookies that only VitaWerks can read and use to save your login information for future logins to the Service, to hold session information, and to track user preferences. We may utilize session ID cookies to enable certain features of the Service, to better understand how you interact with the Site and to monitor aggregate usage by our users and web traffic routing on the Service, to track the number of entries in VitaWerks promotions, sweepstakes and contests and to identify visited areas of the Site and Service. Unlike persistent cookies, session cookies are deleted from your computer when you log off from the Site and Service and then close your browser. We may use Flash cookies (or local shared objects) to store your preferences or display content based upon what you view on our site to personalize your visit. You can instruct your browser, by changing its options, to stop accepting cookies or to prompt you before accepting a cookie from the websites you visit. If you do not accept cookies, however, you will not be able to use all portions or all functionalities of the Service. We and our service providers may also use “pixel tags,” “web beacons,” “clear GIFs,” or similar means in connection with the Service and HTML-formatted email messages to, among other things, track the actions of Users and email recipients, to determine the success of marketing campaigns and to compile aggregate statistics about Site usage and response rates. We may also engage one or more third party service providers to serve online advertisements on our behalf. They may use a “pixel tag” to collect anonymous information about your visits to this Site and to other websites, and they may use that information to target advertisements for goods and services. This information is collected anonymously, in a manner that does not personally identify you. Additionally, the Company gathers and uses personal data about its employees and contractors (“Data”), which may include: name, address, location, professional information, survey and testimonial information, and any other information you voluntarily choose to supply.

VitaWerks uses Personal Information for the following general purposes:

  • To provide our products and the Service.
  • For billing, identification and authentication, and fraud prevention.
  • To analyze Site usage and improve our products and the Service.
  • To contact you and deliver administrative notices and communications relevant to your use of our products and services.
  • For internal market research, troubleshooting problems, and detecting and protecting against error, fraud or other criminal activity.
  • For distribution to third-party contractors that provide services to VitaWerks and partners of VitaWerks who are bound by privacy restrictions at least as restrictive as those set forth in this Policy.
  • To enforce our Terms of Service, and as otherwise set forth in the Policy.

Also, if you share a computer, you should sign out of your VitaWerks account and close the browser window before someone else logs on.

This will help protect your information entered on public terminals from disclosure to third parties.

VitaWerks makes every effort to ensure that your information is secure on its system by backing up data in separate backup drives and using public key access encryption and firewalls on both our main and backup servers. Access to Personal Information is restricted to specific authorized VitaWerks staff, and even then, only when it is necessary for their duties. VitaWerks is committed to upholding our Privacy Policy and other privacy-related activities, routinely assessing security, and ensuring that all VitaWerks staff are aware of our security procedures.

With whom does VitaWerks share information?

When you submit information to VitaWerks, it is collected, processed and maintained solely by us or by third party agents who are bound by privacy restrictions at least as restrictive as those set forth in this policy. We may allow our business partners to collect information about Users that are not extremely sensitive. If you would like to opt out from the onward transfer of your information to our non-agent partners, you may send us an email at hello@vitawerks.com. Include the word “privacy” in the subject line of the email and all your registration information in the body of the email.

Partners may sponsor promotions, contests and sweepstakes that require you to reveal details such as your name, address or phone number. Always check their privacy policy before revealing information about yourself. If you don’t want these sponsors to have your personal information, you can choose to not participate.

VitaWerks reserves the right to disclose Personal Information from both private and public areas of this website at our discretion, if required by law or if we are given reason to believe, in our sole discretion, that someone is causing injury to or interference with the rights of Users, the general public, or VitaWerks, to comply with a judicial proceeding, court order or legal process.

Finally, VitaWerks reserves the right to transfer, sell and/or distribute all information collected through the Service to an affiliate, subsidiary, or third party in the event of any reorganization, merger, sale, joint venture, assignment, transfer or other disposition of all or part of our business, assets or stock. We will use our best efforts to ensure that the new entity follows this Privacy Policy with respect to your Personal Information, as and to the extent required by applicable law.

So that we can protect the integrity of sensitive data, there are certain pieces of information, such as your age, that you cannot alter yourself. For example, as individuals under the age of 18 are not permitted to register as Users, we need to take reasonable measures to preserve the accuracy of our Users’ ages. Please contact us at hello@vitawerks.com to find out how to change information you cannot access through your account.

Our databases automatically update any Personal Information you edit in your profile, or that you request we edit. Information transmitted through boards, chats, polls or through any other means remains in our databases and becomes the property of VitaWerks upon submission.
