Consumer Health Data Privacy Policy

Effective March 31, 2024

This Consumer Health Data Privacy Policy (the “CHD Policy”) supplements Pharmavite LLC’s Nature Made® (“Privacy Policy”) and applies to Personal Information defined as “consumer health data” (“Consumer Health Data”) subject to Nevada’s consumer health data statute (“Nevada CHD Law”) effective March 31, 2024.

As the types of Consumer Health Data we collect, how and why we collect and use such Consumer Health Data, and to whom and under what circumstances we disclose it may differ from site to site and from brand to brand amongst our subsidiaries. Please see the privacy policies on the websites of our subsidiaries’ brands (www.megafood.com, www.uqora.com, www.innateresponse.com, www.equelle.com and https://hellobonafide.com) for more information.

Consumer Health Data We Collect

We collect different kinds of Personal Information (as explained in our Privacy Policy) about consumers. The Personal Information we collect about you depends on how you interact with Pharmavite, the options you choose (including your privacy settings), the products and features you use and/or purchase, where you reside, and applicable law.

Since Consumer Health Data is defined very broadly under consumer health data laws, some of the Personal Information we collect about you could be considered Consumer Health Data.

Examples of the categories of Consumer Health Data we may collect include:

  • Information about your health-related conditions or status, treatments (including surgeries and procedures), diseases or diagnoses; diagnostic testing, health measurements, symptoms, medications, and reproductive or sexual health.
  • Information that may be used to infer or derive data related to the above or other health information

We may infer certain information about you based on information provided from any of the sources listed above.

For certain purposes, we give you choices and/or obtain your consent as required by applicable law – for example, to use your Consumer Health Data for advertising or marketing purposes.

Our Sharing of Consumer Health Data

We may share Consumer Health Data with third parties as reasonably necessary to complete any transaction or provide any product or service you have requested or authorized. For example, if you make a purchase, we will share information about the transaction as necessary to process the payment, including to protect against fraud.

If we disclose your Personal Information to a service provider, we do so pursuant to a written contract that prohibits the service provider from selling, sharing, retaining, using, or disclosing the Personal Information for any purpose other than for the specific purpose of performing the services specified in the contract, or as otherwise permitted by applicable law.

We are required to describe certain disclosures of Consumer Health Data as “sales” where we receive valuable consideration. No money is paid in exchange for your Consumer Health Data.  Where applicable, we may share Consumer Health Data with the following categories of third parties with your consent to the extent required by law:

  • With business partners, such as ad networks, who may deliver marketing communications, promotional materials, or advertisements that may be of interest to you. These business partners may engage in cross-contextual behavioral advertising on our behalf;

For example, we share your Consumer Health Data, with third party marketing and advertising companies and our subsidiaries if we have obtained the necessary consents from you to do so.

Additionally, we may disclose in the future each of the above-listed categories of Consumer Health Data to third parties:

  • Upon your request or approval, though we may not be able to accommodate all requests.
  • As reasonably necessary to facilitate a merger, acquisition, sale, joint venture or collaboration, reorganization, divestiture, assignment, transfer, or other disposition of all or any portion of our business, assets, or stock (including in connection with any bankruptcy or similar proceedings), or other types of strategic business transactions.
