Privacy Statement
AAHP Commitment to Privacy
Updated December 31, 2013
Your privacy is important to us. To protect your privacy, we provide this notice explaining our information practices and the choices you can make about the way your information is collected and used.
Collection and Use of Personal Information
When you request information, order a product or service, register or contact us offline, we may need your specific information in order to process your registration/request and reply promptly.
We may ask you for contact information (such as your name, email and address) and demographic information (such as your zip code). We also collect demographic and profile data at our site and in our databases. We use data you provide to tailor your experience at AAHP and develop and distribute content that we think you might be interested in.
In general, we use identifiable information to complete a transaction, as indicated below. Part of our mission is to improve people lives, and we do that by providing appropriate health information. We do not provide your name and address or email to outside parties, except as described here. To learn more about our encryption policies, please review the section on “Protecting Personal Information” (below).
Links to Other Sites
This site may provide links to other websites or resources. You acknowledge and agree that the AAHP has no control over such sites and resources and is not responsible for the availability of such external sites or resources, and does not endorse and is not responsible or liable for any Materials, advertising, products, or other materials on or available from such sites or resources. You further acknowledge and agree that the AAHP shall not be responsible or liable, directly or indirectly, for any damage or loss caused or alleged to be caused by or in connection with use of or reliance on any such Materials or goods available on or through any such site or resource.
Monitoring of Information
We monitor customer traffic patterns and site usage to help us develop the design and layout of the AAHP Web site. We may also use the information we collect to occasionally notify you about important changes to the Web sites, new services or features offered by the AAHP, and special offers and information we think you will find valuable. If you would rather not receive this information, please contact us through one of the channels identified in “How to Correct or Update Information” (below).
Google Analytics is used to analyze traffic to this Web site. Google Analytics does not maintain individual profiles for visitors, nor does Google Analytics collect data that might identify the individual visitor. Google Analytics only collects aggregate data.
Collection of Personally Identifiable Information and Cookies
We collect standard information, by way of a cookie, to help us evaluate how our sites are being used. A cookie is a small uniquely identifiable text file that is stored on your machine. A cookie collects information that is used for statistical purposes and does not identify you in any way.
Our sites use cookies to keep track of your shopping cart and to make sure you don’t see the same content repeatedly. We use cookies to deliver information specific to your interests and to save your password so you don’t have to re-enter it each time you visit our site.
Most Web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can change your browser settings to prevent that. Even without accepting cookies, you can still use most of the features throughout the AAHP Web sites.
AAHP Policies Regarding Disclosure of Personal Information
AAHP, like many other non-profit organizations, occasionally makes available only our contributor names and postal addresses to companies, predominantly other non-profit organizations. These companies are carefully screened.
Names/addresses are provided on a one-time basis; therefore, these companies will not have continued access to your name and address unless you respond to them directly, which you are free to do or not to do.
The AAHP may provide aggregate statistics about our customers, sales, traffic patterns, and related site information to reputable third-party vendors, but these statistics will include no personal identifying information.
Email Guidelines
AAHP does not send unsolicited commercial email to individuals with whom they do not have consent/permission or a pre-existing or current business relationship. AAHP provides all email recipients with a clear, easy and effective method to unsubscribe to any and all online communications.
How to Correct or Update Information
