Privacy Policy

Information Collection and Use

We want you to feel safe while visiting any site developed or managed by the Universal Strength Foundation LLC (Universal Strength). We know that you care how information about you is used and shared, and we appreciate your trust in us to do so carefully and sensibly. Your use of this website constitutes your acceptance of this Privacy Policy and your consent to the practices it describes. The information we learn from customers helps us personalize and continually improve the experience of the Universal Strength Website. Here are the types of information we gather:

Non-Personally Identifiable Information:

As with most websites, when you visit universalstrength.com certain anonymous information about your visit is automatically collected and later analyzed, which may include the following: computer and connection information such as the type of browser you use, the server name, operating system, platform and IP address through which you access the internet; the date and time you access the site; purchase history (which we sometimes aggregate with similar information from other customers to create special features, such as Top Sellers and Most Popular); the full URL (Uniform Resource Locator) clickstream to, through and from our Web site; cookie numbers; products you viewed or searched for; and the number of sessions held on our Web site. During some visits, we may use software tools such as JavaScript to measure and collect session information, including page response times, download errors, length of visits to certain pages, page interaction information (such as clicks, rollovers and scrolling), and methods used to browse away from the page. This information is not personally identifiable.

Personally Identifiable Information (PII):

Personally Identifiable Information is any information that concerns you individually and would permit someone to contact you. For example, your name, address, telephone/fax number, credit card number, email address or any information you submitted to us that identifies you individually. PII may be collected by Universal Strength if you choose to communicate with us through email, via this website, by telephone, in writing, by placing an order or by completing a user registration form or online survey. You can choose not to provide certain information, but then you might not be able to take advantage of many of our features. You can visit and browse the Universal Strength without revealing personally identifiable information about yourself.

Information from other sources:

We might receive information about you from other sources and add it to our account information. Examples include: updated postal and email information, which we use to correct our records and deliver your next purchase or communication more easily; purchase confirmation, order status, and shipping information.

Use of Cookies:

We may obtain non-personally identifiable information by placing a "cookie" on your computer's hard drive so we can recognize you as a return user and personalize your experience. A cookie is a piece of data that enables us to track and target your preferences. The cookie will be stored on your computer's hard drive until you remove it. We may also use temporary or "session" cookies to help you shop. These cookies will expire when you place an order. As with most internet browsers, you can erase this information from your computer's hard drive, block all cookies or even receive a warning before a cookie is placed on your system. Click on your browser's Help button for more information. If you reject our cookies, you may still use our site, but you may be limited in the use of many of our features, including the shopping cart and checkout areas. Some of our business partners may also use cookies on our site; however, we have no access to, or control over, these cookies and do not accept any responsibility for such use.

Opt out Choices & Sharing of Data

Opt Out Choices:

Universal Strength gives you the option to opt out from receiving offers or emails from us. You can opt out by deselecting options in your account details. You can also opt out by e-mailing us, phoning us or writing us, using the contact information provided below. If you do not wish to receive offers from our marketing partners, simply leave that checkbox unchecked. Additionally, if you have previously agreed to receive offers from our stores and marketing partners, and would like to discontinue receiving these offers, you can do so by following the simple opt out procedures they provide in the email or contacting them directly.

Sharing with Third-Party Marketing Partners:

If you have agreed to receive offers from third-party marketing partners, the personal information you have provided us and information about your order may be shared with third-parties. This information may be combined with other non-personally identifiable information to make their future marketing efforts more effective. It may also be used by third-parties to bring you offers of interest. If you prefer that your name and address not be shared with these third-parties, do not select these options when you create your account and we will not share your information without your prior consent.

Sharing with Third-Party Advertisers & Links to Other Sites:

Our site includes third-party advertising and links to other websites. We do not provide any personally identifiable information to these advertisers or third-party websites. These third-party websites and advertisers, or Internet advertising companies working on their behalf, sometimes use technology to send (or "serve") the advertisements that appear on our website directly to your browser. They automatically receive your IP address when this happens. They may also use cookies, JavaScript, web beacons (also known as action tags or single-pixel gifs), and other technologies to measure the effectiveness of their ads and to personalize advertising content. We do not have access to or control over cookies or other features that they may use, and the information practices of these advertisers and third-party websites are not covered by this Privacy Notice. Please contact them directly for more information about their privacy practices. In addition, the Network Advertising Initiative offers useful information about Internet advertising companies (also called "ad networks" or "network advertisers"), including information about how to opt-out of their information collection.

Using Third-Party Data to Improve Our Marketing Efforts on Your Behalf

Universal Strength is constantly improving the service and products we provide our customers. To aid us in serving you better, we may combine non-personally identifiable information available from our records with information available from other sources. Universal Strength may also hire third parties to help us in analysis of our customer data or the development of new products, sending postal mail and email, removing repetitive data from customer lists, providing marketing assistance, providing customer service, and providing search results and links. As a result, these third parties may be given access to some or all of the information you provide to Universal Strength that is needed to perform their functions, but they may not use it for other purposes. Universal Strength requires these third parties to maintain your information in the strictest confidence and to ensure that they honor the privacy settings you have selected for the handling of your personal information on the Universal Strength site. We use authorize.net to provide credit card fraud checking services on our site. When you purchase from Universal Strength we will share your credit card details as necessary for the third party to provide that service. Authorize.net is prohibited from using your personally identifiable information for any other purpose. We do not keep your credit card details on file.

Security

Our website takes every precaution to protect your information. When you submit sensitive information, that information is protected both online and offline. Website security is reviewed regularly to ensure we are up to date with industry standards and technology. We want you to feel safe and secure while visiting Universal Strength. You can feel confident making purchases from established partner sites that have been in business for many years.
