SOURCES OF CONSUMER HEALTH DATA


As described further in the “Sources of Personal Information” section of the Privacy Notice, we collect consumer health data directly from you, from your interactions with our Services, and from third parties.


WHY WE COLLECT AND USE CONSUMER HEALTH DATA


We may use the categories of consumer health data described above for the following purposes:

  • To Provide and Manage the Platform and the Services. We use your consumer health data to provide, administer, and manage the Platform (and its features) and as otherwise necessary to provide the Services and to operate our business.
  • To Process and Fulfill Your Order(s). We may use your consumer health data to process your returns or inform you of any product recall.
  • To Identify Usage Trends and Make Improvements. We use your consumer health data to understand how you use the Platform and identify usage trends. We also use your consumer health data to identify issues, test new features or changes in our features, and improve the Platform, the Services, and our products.

Details on how to exercise your choices with respect to marketing and promotional materials and communications from us can be found in the “Your Choices and Legal Rights” section below.
  • To Conduct Research and Analytics. We use your consumer health data to help us conduct research and analytics and to otherwise measure the effectiveness of the Platform’s content and our online and offline marketing and advertising efforts.
  • To Maintain Security and Prevent Fraud. We may use your consumer health data to help monitor and maintain the security and integrity of the Platform as well as our systems and networks. Additionally, we use your consumer health data to detect; prevent; investigate; and protect you, our business, and others from fraud, unauthorized transactions, and other unlawful or unsafe activity.
  • To Satisfy Our Legal Obligations. We use your consumer health data to comply with applicable law and respond to lawful requests and communications from law enforcement authorities and other government officials.
  • To Carry Out Sales and Business Transactions. We may use your consumer health data in connection with the evaluation, negotiation, and/or completion of a business transaction (e.g., a merger, divestiture, restructuring, reorganization, dissolution, or other sale or transfer of some or all of our assets), whether as a going concern or as part of any bankruptcy, liquidation, or similar proceeding, in which personal information held by us is among the assets transferred or is otherwise relevant to the evaluation, negotiation, or completion of the transaction.
  • As Otherwise Permitted, Necessary, or Appropriate. We use your consumer health data as otherwise described in this policy or as explained to you at the point of information collection. We will also use your consumer health data at your direction or with your consent. Finally, we will use your personal information as we believe necessary or appropriate to protect our rights, privacy, safety, property, and/or those of others.
