Visitors can visit our site without registering or providing personal information, but we do collect personal information to make certain features and options available. We collect personal information when it is voluntarily provided, for instance when registering for e-mail updates, completing our online surveys, purchasing products etc.. On the MyPetiteAmie.com our girl’s site we typically require only a first name and e-mail address to respond to a question; that information is then deleted. To process newsletter and update signup requests for children under age 13, we also ask for a parent’s e-mail address. On the Hygeiapcp.com site our adult site, we may ask for first and last name, mailing address, phone number, and an e-mail address; an address and phone number is required to process online orders and other demographic information is requested to help us understand our visitors’ backgrounds, needs, and interests.

Information Hygeia Personal Care Products, Inc. Collects Automatically

As you navigate through a Web site, certain information can be
passively collected (that is, gathered without your actively
providing the information) using various technologies and means, such
as Internet Protocol addresses, cookies, Internet tags, and
navigational data collection.

Your web browser offers "cookies" which, if you allow their use, store small amounts of data on your computer when you visit a web site. Cookies do not contain any personally identifiable information about you and therefore cannot be used to identify you personally. You have the ability to accept or decline cookies by modifying your browser and our web sites are viewable even if you disable the cookie function on your browser. However, if you disable cookies, some advanced and customized features of our site will not be available to you. A "cookie" is a bit of information that a Web site sends to your Web browser that helps the site remember information about you and your preferences.

"Session" cookies are temporary bits of information that are erased once you exit your Web browser window or otherwise turn your computer off. Session cookies are used to improve navigation on Web sites and to collect aggregate statistical information. This site uses session cookies.

"Persistent" cookies are more permanent bits of information that are placed on the hard drive of your computer and stay there unless you delete the cookie. Persistent cookies store information on your computer for a number of purposes, such as retrieving certain information you have previously provided (e.g., passwords), helping to determine what areas of the Web site visitors find most valuable, and customizing the Web site based on your preferences. This site uses persistent cookies.

Hygeia may utilize cookie technology to assist us in tracking which of
our features you like best. Cookies also enable us to provide online
shopping, customize our content according to your preferences, and
to age screen users for compliance with our policies for children under age
13. We DO NOT use cookies or other non-consensual methods to take personally identifiable or online contact information about you or your family off of your computer. Hygeia DOES NOT use cookies for direct marketing or promotional purposes. Cookies are also NOT used
to collect information specifically about you or your family for sharing with third parties [without consent.]

We use Internet Protocol (IP) addresses on this site. An IP address is a number assigned to your computer by your Internet Service Provider (ISP) so you can access the Internet and is generally considered to be non-personally identifiable information, because in most cases an IP address is dynamic (changing each time you connect to the Internet), rather than static (unique to a particular user's computer). We use your IP address to diagnose problems with our server, report aggregate information, determine the fastest route for your computer to use in connecting to our site, and administer and improve the site.

"Internet tags" (also known as single-pixel GIFs, clear GIFs, invisible GIFs, and 1-by-1 GIFs) are smaller than cookies and tell the Web site server information such as the IP address and browser type related to the visitor's computer. We do not use Internet tags on this site.

"Navigational data" ("log files," "server logs," and "clickstream" data) are used for system management, to improve the content of the site, market research purposes, and to communicate information to visitors. This site uses navigational data.

What We Do With Collected Information

We use the personal information we collect to fulfill your requests. For instance, if you purchase a product online, we will use the information you provide to provide you with information, process your purchase order. If you visit the MyPetiteAmie.com (girl’s site) and register to receive a newsletter, we will use the registration information to send the newsletter. We also use collected information to evaluate and administer our service, respond to any problems that may arise, and to gauge user trends to determine what features are of most interest to our visitors.

We may, at times, produce reports containing aggregate information
about our users such as demographic, age, and online usage
information. This allows us to provide information and features
that are most relevant to our users. We do not include personally identifiable information in these reports.

Except as otherwise stated, we may use your information to improve
the content of our site, to customize the site to your preferences, to communicate information to you (if you have requested it), for our marketing and research purposes, and for the purposes specified in this Privacy Policy.

If you provide personally identifiable information to this site, we
may combine such information with other actively collected information
unless we specify otherwise at the point of collection. We will take
reasonable measures to prevent personally identifiable information
from being combined with passively collected information, unless
you consent otherwise.

We may disclose your personally identifiable information to third parties, located in the United States and/or any other country, but only:

1. To contractors we use to support our business (e.g., fulfillment services, technical support, delivery services, and financial institutions), in which case we will require such third parties to agree to treat it in accordance with this Privacy Policy;
2. In connection with the sale, assignment, or other transfer of the business of this site to which the information relates, in which case we will require any such buyer to agree to treat it in accordance with this Privacy Policy; or
3. Where required by applicable laws, court orders, or government regulations. In addition, we will make full use of all information acquired through this site that is not in personally identifiable form.

Children’s Privacy

Hygeia Personal Care Products, Inc. pays special attention to protecting the privacy of visitors under age 13. Hygeia Personal Care Products, Inc. uses technical tools (i.e., cookies) to check the age of visitors who sign up for newsletters and updates. We ask visitors who indicate they are under age 13 when signing up for e-mail newsletters or updates to provide the e-mail address of a parent or legal guardian so we can send the parent a notice. Online contact information will be used only to directly respond to the child’s one-time request or, with parental notification, to sign the child up for our e-mail updates. Our community features, if available, are designed to prevent visitors from posting personally identifiable information. Participation requires only a user name, and postings are screened to prevent inclusion of personal information. Hygeia Personal Care Products, Inc. will NOT:

• Collect more information than needed to respond to a question or one-time request from a child under 13, provide parental notice, or obtain parental consent.
• Collect personally identifiable offline contact information from users known to be under 13 without prior verifiable parental consent.
• Distribute to third parties any personally identifiable information collected from children known to be under 13
  absent parental consent.

Updating Your Preferences

To keep your personally identifiable information accurate, current, and complete, please contact us as specified below. We will take reasonable steps to update or correct personally identifiable information in our possession that you have previously submitted.

A user can, at any time, change, correct, modify or delete any personal information they may have been provided to Hygeia Personal Care Products, Inc.. Users can also unsubscribe from any newsletters or opt out of various promotional e-mailings at any time by clicking on "unsubscribe" links in the newsletter or e-mails.

We will not make retroactive changes in how we handle previously collected personal information unless
legally required to do so.
