We developed this Privacy Policy to explain how we collect, use, share, and protect Personal Information (defined below), and your choices about the collection and use of Personal Information.
This Privacy Policy applies to Personal Information collected or processed through our products and services (the “Services”), and https://alliedwellness.com/ and any other Allied Wellness-operated website, app, or social media page that links to this Privacy Policy (collectively, the “Site and Services”). This Privacy Policy does not govern your healthcare provider’s (“Provider”) use of Personal Information or Protected Health Information (“PHI”) (as that term is defined under HIPAA) that you share with the Provider, whether or not through the Site or Services, in the course of receiving health services. For more information on your Provider’s use and disclosure of your PHI, please reach out to your provider for their Notice of Health Information Privacy Practices.

We will retain your Personal Information for the period necessary to fulfill the purposes for which your Personal Information has been collected as outlined in this Privacy Policy unless a longer retention period is required by law.
In various places on the Site and Services, we request information from you via forms. The exact information we need to collect (including Personal Information) will depend on the purpose of the form. For example, when you open an account on the Site (“Account”), we collect your name, email address, and DOB. As another example, if you purchase services from your provider through the Site, we may collect payment information (e.g., credit/debit card numbers, expiration date, and CVV); information about your health; and behavioral information (e.g., eating habits, mood and demeanor information, etc.). We will indicate on the form whether a particular field of information is mandatory or optional. If you choose not to provide certain information, we may not be able to provide requested services.
We collect the following types of information automatically through your use of the Site and Services:

Some of our service providers may use cookies or other methods to gather information regarding your use of the Site and Services, and may combine the information in these cookies with any Personal Information about you that they may have.

We use Log File Information collected from our implementation of the Site to help secure the Site by identifying potential threats and vulnerabilities and in analyzing the effectiveness of our Site to improve the Site’s function and content.
We will not disclose Personal Information except as set forth in this Privacy Policy or with your consent. Specifically, we do not sell Personal Information. This section describes to whom we disclose Personal Information and for what purposes:
Financial Institutions. When you make payments or request a statement through the Site or through our Services, we may provide your Personal Information to your bank, credit card company, or other financial institution (“Financial Institutions”) in order to process such payments or statements. Our use and disclosure of any Personal Information to Financial Institutions is limited in accordance with applicable privacy laws and our agreements with the Financial Institutions.
Our Service Providers. We engage service providers to perform tasks on our behalf and to assist us in operating the Site and Services or providing our products and services. For example, Allied Wellness may use third-party vendors and hosting companies to provide the necessary hardware, software, networking, storage, and related technology required to operate the Site and Services. We may store encrypted database backups off site with a third-party storage provider to ensure data security in the case of an emergency or catastrophe. We take commercially reasonable steps to help ensure our service providers provide at least the same level of protection for Personal Information as we do.
Companies Involved in Mergers and Acquisitions Transactions. If we sell or otherwise transfer part or the whole of our business or assets to another organization (e.g., in the course of a transaction like a merger, acquisition, bankruptcy, dissolution, or liquidation), any information collected through the Site and Services, including Personal Information, may be among the items sold or transferred.

We may disclose Personal Information at the request of law enforcement or government agencies; in response to subpoenas, court orders, or other legal process; to establish, protect, or exercise our rights; to defend against a legal claim; to protect the rights, property, or safety of any other person; or as otherwise required by law.
We protect the confidentiality and security of Personal Information we obtain in the course of business. We use commercially reasonable safeguards, such as industry-standard encryption technology, to help keep the Personal Information collected through the Site and Services secure.
Despite these efforts to store Personal Information in a secure operating environment, we cannot guarantee the security of Personal Information during its transmission or its storage on our systems. Further, while we attempt to ensure the integrity and security of Personal Information, we cannot guarantee that our security measures will prevent third parties such as hackers from illegally obtaining access to Personal Information. We do not represent or warrant that Personal Information about you will be protected against, loss, misuse, or alteration by third parties.
We will only retain your Personal Information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected and processed, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, regulatory, accounting or reporting requirements. In some circumstances, we may de-identify, aggregate, or otherwise anonymize your Personal Information consistent with applicable laws and industry standards so that it can no longer be associated with you, in which case it is no longer treated as Personal Information. It is our policy to retain Personal Information for ten (10) years once such Personal Information is no longer necessary to deliver the Services and to delete such Personal Information thereafter. This means that, if you close your account with us, we will delete Personal Information associated with your account after ten (10) years. Regarding other types of information we collect as described in this policy it is our policy to retain such information for ten (10) years and to delete such Personal Information thereafter.

In addition to learning about nutrition, Elizabeth became a Certified Personal Trainer and has been helping people achieve their fitness and wellness goals since 2015.
