Before or when Your information is collected, Lorna Vanderhaeghe Health Solutions will identify, as clearly and narrowly as possible, the purpose for which Your information is needed, and will document that purpose.

With regard to enforcing the above policies and procedures to protect Your personal information, Lorna Vanderhaeghe Health Solutions has specifically appointed an individual to be responsible for Lorna Vanderhaeghe Health Solutions' compliance with relevant privacy laws. This individual’s contact information can be found at the bottom of this page.
The information we ask for will depend on the information or service requested. Different information and services require different types of information. Your information may be collected via an "active information collection point" or through passive means.
Active Information Collection
You might choose to actively provide Lorna Vanderhaeghe Health Solutions with certain kinds of personally identifiable information, such as Your full name, address, phone number, e-mail address and other personal details, including by submitting or posting same to a Lorna Vanderhaeghe Health Solutions Site. All information that You actively provide to Lorna Vanderhaeghe Health Solutions is provided at Your option.
There are many ways You can give Your consent to our use of information that You provide.
Your express consent may be given in writing, verbally or through electronic means. Alternatively, where permitted by law, Your consent may be implied through an action You've taken or when You continue to use a product or service after we've notified You of a change. For certain communications and services, we will verify Your express consent prior to commencing the requested service or communication.
Examples of express consent:
- Written - Signing a form that states "I agree to the terms."
- Electronic - Clicking on an "I agree" or "I accept" or similar button online.
- Verbal - Responding to a direct question from a Lorna Vanderhaeghe Health Solutions representative via telephone communications.
Example of implied consent:
There are many potential examples where You may provide information to Lorna Vanderhaeghe Health Solutions for a particular purpose and Your consent for Lorna Vanderhaeghe Health Solutions to use the supplied information is implied for the purpose for which it was supplied, such as:
- Completing a registration form in order to access and use a particular feature or function on a Lorna Vanderhaeghe Health Solutions Site
- Submitting questions or comments to Lorna Vanderhaeghe Health Solutions
- Submitting feedback about Lorna Vanderhaeghe Health Solutions or products and services and other topics

Passive Information Collection
Lorna Vanderhaeghe Health Solutions Sites may use various technologies to passively collect information from You while You are visiting (that is, You do not actively provide this information to Lorna Vanderhaeghe Health Solutions). Such technologies allow the Lorna Vanderhaeghe Health Solutions Site to collect a range of non-personally identifiable information, including Your Internet Protocol (IP) address (a unique identifier automatically assigned to Your computer when logging onto the Internet), the type of Web browser and operating system You use, the date and time You visit the Lorna Vanderhaeghe Health Solutions Site, the specific pages You visit on the Lorna Vanderhaeghe Health Solutions Site, and the address of the Web site You visited before coming to the Lorna Vanderhaeghe Health Solutions Site.
Lorna Vanderhaeghe Health Solutions typically uses such passively collected information for a variety of purposes, such as to administer the Lorna Vanderhaeghe Health Solutions Site, customize the Lorna Vanderhaeghe Health Solutions Site to Your preferences, and compile aggregated statistics for marketing and research purposes. Lorna Vanderhaeghe Health Solutions reserves the unrestricted right to use this passively collected, non-personally identifiable information, including, but not limited to, selling, leasing, permitting access to, or otherwise transferring it to our affiliates, business partners, advertisers and other third parties.
The "passive information collection" technologies that we use may include "cookies". Cookies are small text files that store information about Your interactions with a particular Web site, either temporarily (known as a "temporary" or "session" cookie, and deleted once You close Your browser window) or more permanently on the hard drive of Your computer (known as a "permanent" or "persistent cookie"). Cookies can make it easier to use a Web site by allowing servers to access certain information quickly:
- "Session" cookies can be used to help a user's browser navigate a Web site more smoothly and may show up if the user comes from a Web site with which the subsequent Web site has some relationship (e.g., a Web site of an affiliated company) and can give helpful information.
- "Persistent" cookies can be used to customize a Web site for a user, such as by storing passwords, preferences, and registration and account information so that users do not have to re-enter them each time they visit a Web site.
Uses and Disclosure of Information
Except as described in this Policy or as You may otherwise consent to from time to time, Lorna Vanderhaeghe Health Solutions will not use, and will not disclose or provide any of Your personal information to any other person. We do not sell, trade, or rent Your personal information to others for marketing purposes. As described above, generally, the purpose for collecting Your personal information will be explained to You, in clear language, at the time of collection.
When You provide information to Lorna Vanderhaeghe Health Solutions by completing a registration form, submitting questions or comments or feedback concerning Lorna Vanderhaeghe Health Solutions or products and services and other topics, completing surveys and evaluations and other similar situations, we will use this information to learn more about our customers and their preferences, improve our products, services and the Lorna Vanderhaeghe Health Solutions Sites and for related marketing and research purposes.
Lorna Vanderhaeghe Health Solutions reserves the right to transfer any information submitted by You and retained by Lorna Vanderhaeghe Health Solutions to Lorna Vanderhaeghe Health Solutions affiliates to the extent necessary to perform requested services and provide requested information. Lorna Vanderhaeghe Health Solutions may sell all or part of its business, sell or securitize assets, or merge or amalgamate part or all of our business with other entities. Since customer information and data would normally be a part of such transactions, we may use or disclose such information to other parties included in the transaction, as part of due diligence activities and/or on the completion of the transaction.
Children
Lorna Vanderhaeghe Health Solutions does not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 18, except for the purpose of voluntary requests for product recommendations, made on behalf of the child by his or her parent or guardian, and only upon securing the informed consent of the parent or guardian to Lorna Vanderhaeghe Health Solutions' collection of that information insofar as is necessary for the purpose of providing product recommendations. This information will then be managed under Lorna Vanderhaeghe Health Solutions' internal privacy policies.
Exceptions where Lorna Vanderhaeghe Health Solutions may Collect, Use or Disclose Information without Consent
If we are required or permitted by law
We may be required to release information by a court of law or other legal or regulatory authority. If so, our policy is to release information only to the extent that we have to.

For example, we may collect and use publicly available information like information in the telephone book for marketing or customer service purposes. Further, for other legal, medical, emergency or other security reasons, it may be impossible or impractical to seek or obtain Your consent.
If we use an outside third party supplier to do work for us
We may from time to time use outside third party suppliers to do work for us involving some of Your information. For example, to perform computer services on our behalf or to analyze survey results or marketing data or to administer to manage promotions or contests or for other reasonable purposes. We select the company carefully and confirm that it uses privacy and security standards that meet Lorna Vanderhaeghe Health Solutions' requirements.

Retention
Lorna Vanderhaeghe Health Solutions will keep Your information only for as long as it is reasonably needed to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, unless and to the extent a longer retention is permitted or required by law.
