The following Privacy Policy summarizes how Your Health Connection, Inc. (“YHC”, "Service Provider," "we" or "our") treats the information you provide while using yhcmagazine.com ("Website"). It is our goal to bring you information that is tailored to your individual needs and, at the same time, protect your privacy.

Please read this Privacy Policy carefully. Your use of and/or registration on any aspect of the Website will constitute your agreement to this Privacy Policy. If you cannot agree with the terms and conditions of this Privacy Policy, please do not fill out any form presented on the Website. This Privacy Policy does not cover information collected elsewhere, including without limitation offline and on sites linked to from the Website.

This Privacy Policy may be modified from time to time; the date of the most recent revisions will appear on this page, so check back often. Continued access of the Website by you will constitute your acceptance of any changes or revisions to the Privacy Policy.

I. THE TYPE OF INFORMATION THE WEBSITE COLLECTS

The Website collects personally identifying information with your specific knowledge and consent. For instance, when you fill out a registration form to read complete articles, or a form to register for YHC’s monthly drawing to win Shopping Corner products, you are asked to provide your e-mail address.

Our servers may also automatically collect information about your computer when you visit the Website, including without limitation the type of browser software you use, the operating system you are running, the website that referred you, and your Internet Protocol ("IP") address. Your IP address is usually associated with the place from which you enter the Internet, like your Internet Service Provider, your company or your university.

II. HOW THE WEBSITE USES INFORMATION PROVIDED BY YOU

Service Provider uses personally identifying information you supply through the Website to provide you with the service you have requested. For example, if you enter YHC’s Shopping Corner monthly drawing, we will use this information to notify you if you are a winner. We may also use the information to communicate with you about our upcoming issues or health-related events.

The information we collect is confidential, and is not shared with any person or organization outside of Your Health Connection, Inc. If you do not wish to receive future communications from us by e-mail, simply follow the unsubscribe instructions contained within the e-mail. If you wish, you may uncheck the “Please notify me…” checkbox immediately below any YHC registration form to be removed from all Your Health Connection, Inc. mailing lists.

Service Provider does not bear any responsibility for any actions or policies of third parties. We may provide access to our database in order to cooperate with official investigations or legal proceedings, including, for example, in response to subpoenas, search warrants, court orders, or other legal process.

III. COOKIES

You may have read about "cookies," nuggets of information that are placed by a Website in a storage place on your own computer. We may use cookies to track usage patterns on the site and to record registration information.

Some of our advertisers may occasionally serve you cookies as well. We do not have control over cookies placed by advertisers.  These vendors may use cookies, web beacons, or similar technologies to serve you advertisements tailored to interests you have shown by browsing on various sites you have visited, to determine whether you have seen a particular advertisement before and to avoid sending you duplicate advertisements. In doing so, these vendors may collect non-personal data such as your browser type, your operating system, Web pages visited, time of visits, content viewed, ads viewed, and other clickstream data. The use of cookies, web beacons, or similar technologies by these advertising service vendors is subject to their own privacy policies, not ours, and Service Provider disclaims all liability in connection therewith. If you do not want the benefits of these advertising cookies, you may be able to opt-out by visiting http://www.networkadvertising.org/optout_nonppii.asp.

If you don't want any cookies, your Web browser likely includes an option that allows you to not accept them. However, if you set your browser to refuse cookies, some portions of the Website may not function properly.

IV. INFORMATION SECURITY AND NOTIFICATION

Because no data transmission over the Internet is completely secure, and no system of physical or electronic security is impenetrable, Service Provider can not guarantee the security of the information you send to us or the security of our servers or databases, and by using the Website you agree to assume all risk in connection with the information sent to us or collected by us when you use the Website. In the unlikely event that we believe that the security of your information in our possession or control may have been compromised, we may seek to notify you. If notification is appropriate, we may notify you by e-mail (provided we have your e-mail address).
