In the course of using the Site, WholisticMatters may ask users for their name, email address, postal
address, mobile or other telephone number, fax number, as well as other relevant information. Health
care providers will be asked to provide information specific to their clinics, such as clinic name,
address, telephone number, and website URL.
WholisticMatters may also collect account registration information, including usernames, passwords,
and answers to security questions. In many cases, users choose the amount of information they
supply. There may be instances in which some of the information that we ask users to provide is
identified as mandatory and some as voluntary. In such cases, if users do not provide mandatory
personal information with respect to a particular activity, users will not be able to engage in that
activity. WholisticMatters also may collect certain information that is not personally identifiable
when you visit many of our Web pages, such as the type of browser you are using, the type of
operating system you are using, the domain name of your Internet service provider, aggregate data
about the number of visits to the Site, and/or aggregate data about the pages visited. Information
gathered through the Site may be transferred, used, and stored in the United States and in foreign

with WholisticMatters’ related entities, advertisers, partners, and/or other third-party vendors.

records.

(“Personal Information”) you provide about yourself: (a) to respond to any of your inquiries or
questions about our content or services; (b) for internal marketing purposes with Standard Process;

regarding WholisticMatters content and/or services; (d) to offer you other materials and/or
information that WholisticMatters believes may be of interest to you; (e) to cooperate with
government officials or parties in litigation under process of law, to prevent a crime, or as

destruction of property; (g) to protect against legal liability; (h) to create and manage user
accounts; (i) to communicate with the user regarding the user’s use of the Site; and/or (j) to
perform data analyses and/or research (including de-identification and aggregation of Personal
Information).
WholisticMatters’ agents, employees, and contractors who have access to Personal Information are
required to protect this information in a manner that is consistent with this Privacy Policy.
Furthermore, WholisticMatters encourages all its business partners to adopt and adhere to standards

WholisticMatters shall own all such Personal Information and may maintain copies of such as part of
its records. If you do not wish to receive marketing materials or advertisements regarding Standard
Process products, please contact WholisticMatters in the manner identified in the “Opt-Out” section

licensed, distributed, and/or sold as part of WholisticMatters or its assets. In addition, if

The Site is not intended for children under the age of 13. WholisticMatters does not knowingly
collect personal information from users under 13 years of age. In the event that WholisticMatters
becomes aware that it has collected personal information from a user under 13 years of age, it will
take steps to delete such information from its database.
If you are a California resident and use our Site or app, you are entitled to request certain
information regarding our disclosure of certain “personal information” (as defined in California

and alteration of any information under WholisticMatters’ control. Nevertheless, such security
measures may not prevent all loss, misuse, or alteration of information on the Site, and Standard
