Understanding How Information Is Collected on Nature’s Own Doctor

WE ALSO SHARE ORDER INFORMATION WITH EGreenWallet.com AND/OR SONIC SEVEN COMMUNICATIONS TO PROCESS YOUR CREDIT CARD INFORMATION. YOU WILL SEE CHARGES ON YOUR CARD FROM EGreenWallet.com and/or SONIC SEVEN COMMUNICATIONS AND NOT NaturesOwnDoctor.com AS A WAY TO FURTHER PROTECT YOUR PRIVACY.

Please be aware that information you post in forums that we may host from time to time may be viewed or captured by anyone who visits the Site, therefore you should avoid posting data that you would not want to be available to the public.

Information That Is Automatically Collected When You Visit Nature’s Own Doctor

When you access the Site, we and our third-party partners may automatically collect certain information about your visit using tools such as cookies, web beacons, and other similar technologies. The information collected automatically when you visit the Site may include your IP address, characteristics of your operating system, information about your browser and system settings, data about the computer or mobile device you use to access the Site, unique device identifiers, clickstream data (which shows the page-by-page path you take as you browse the Site). We or our third-party partners may combine information that each of us collects automatically with other information about you, including information you choose to provide.

Cookies are small files that websites use to store information about users on the users’ own computers. This Site may use cookies (such as HTTP and HTML5 cookies and Flash cookies), as well as other types of local storage. For more information about cookies, you may visit http://www.allaboutcookies.org. If you choose to disable cookies, that could affect certain features of the Site that use cookies to enhance their functionality.

To manage our automatic data collection, we may place tags (often referred to as “web beacons”) on pages on the Site or in emails we send to you. Web beacons are small files that link web pages to particular web servers and their cookies, and they may be used for a variety of purposes, such as counting the number of visitors to the Site, analyzing how users navigate around the Site, assessing how many emails that we send are actually opened and which articles or links are viewed by visitors.

We also use third-party web analytics services, such as Google Analytics, on the Site, to provide us with statistics and other information about visitors to the Site.

Do Not Track” Signals. Your browser settings may allow you to automatically transmit a “do not track” signal to websites and online services you visit. At this time there is no consensus among industry participants as to the meaning of “do not track” in this context. Like many other websites, NaturesOwnDoctor.com is not configured to respond to “do not track” signals from browsers. Click here to learn more about “do not track” signals.

Finally, companies that provide certain third-party apps, tools, widgets, and plug-ins that may appear on the Site (for example, Facebook “Like” buttons), also may use automated means to collect information regarding your interactions with these features. This information collection is subject to the privacy policies or notices of those providers.
