Registered Customers will be required to provide contact information (such as name, mailing address, telephone numbers, and email address) and payment information (such as credit card or checking account information). We use this information to maintain contact with the customer and to process the Registered Customer’s orders.

INFORMATION USE
Personally Identifiable Information
Personally identifiable information that is collected from Distributors and customers through Distributor and Customer Registration, Product Ordering and/or Surveys is used as described above. Medgo LLC DOES NOT share Personally identifiable information that is collected from Distributors and customers through Distributor and Customer Registration, Product Ordering, and/or Surveys. Medgo LLC may share aggregated information collected from such sources from time to time with its partners, vendors or other third parties. When such aggregate information is shared by Medgo LLC, no personally identifiable information is shared.
Profile Information
Medgo LLC stores information that it collects through cookies, log files, clear gifs, and/or third parties to create a profile of visitors to the web sites (“users”). A profile is stored information that Medgo LLC keep on individual users, including Distributors and customers, that details their viewing preferences. Consequently, collected information is tied to the user’s personally identifiable information to provide offers and improve the content of the site for the user. This profile is used to tailor a user’s visit to the web sites, and to direct pertinent marketing promotions to them. Medgo LLC does share profile information with other third parties. Profile information is shared in aggregate form only.
Cookies
A cookie is a piece of data stored on a user’s computer tied to information about the user. Usage of a cookie is in no way linked to any personally identifiable information while on the web sites. Medgo LLC uses both session ID cookies and persistent cookies. For the session ID cookie, once users close the browser, the cookie simply terminates. A persistent cookie is a small text file stored on the user’s hard drive for an extended period of time. Persistent cookies can be removed by following Internet browser help file directions.
By setting a cookie on a user’s computer, users do not have to log in a password more than once, thereby saving time while at the web sites. If a user rejects the cookie, the user will still be able to use the site. The only drawback to this is that the user may need to enter his or her password every time he or she accesses the site.
Log Files
Like most standard web site servers Medgo LLC’s web sites use log files. This includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, platform type, date/time stamp, and number of clicks to analyze trends, administer the site, track user’s movement in the aggregate, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. IP addresses, etc. are not linked to personally identifiable information. IP addresses are tied to personally identifiable information to enable our web-based service. We use a tracking utility called APACHE logs that use log files to analyze user movement.
COMMUNICATIONS FROM THE WEB SITES
Special Offers and Updates
Medgo LLC sends all new Distributors and Registered Customers a welcoming email to verify password, username, and acceptance of the Distributor Agreement or Customer Agreement.

Service Announcements
On rare occasions it is necessary to send out a strictly service related announcement. For instance, if our service is temporarily suspended for maintenance we might send Distributors and/or customers an email.

Aggregate Information (non-personally identifiable)
Medgo LLC shares aggregated demographic information with our partners and advertisers. This is not linked to any personally identifiable information.
These are the instances in which we will share users’ personal information:
Medgo LLC DOES NOT Share Personally Identifiable Information about users with any Third Parties.
Third Party Fulfillment
Medgo LLC uses an outside shipping company to ship orders, and a credit card processing company to bill Distributors for goods and services. These companies do not retain, share, store or use personally identifiable information for any secondary purposes.
Service Providers
Medgo LLC partners with other third parties to provide specific services. For example, support, merchant account, and pay systems. When an applicant applies to become a Distributor, we share names, or other contact information with ByDesign Technologies so that Medgo, LLC may provide the following services to Distributors: Back Office Tools, Support, Merchant Accounts and Pay Systems. Third parties are not allowed to use personally identifiable information except for the purpose of providing these services.
Business Transitions
In the event Medgo LLC goes through a business transition, such as a merger, being acquired by another company, or selling a portion of its assets, the personal information of Distributors will, in most instances, be part of the assets transferred. Distributors will be notified prior to a change of ownership or control of their personal information. If as a result of the business transition, a Distributor’s personally identifiable information will be used in a manner different from that stated at the time of collection the Distributor will be given choice consistent with our notification of changes section.
Choice
Users are always notified when their information is being collected by any outside parties. We do this so users can make an informed choice as to whether or not they should proceed with services that require an outside party.
Links
Medgo LLC’s web sites may contain links to other sites. Please be aware that Medgo LLC is not responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites. We encourage users to be aware when they leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each and every web site that collects personally identifiable information. This privacy statement applies solely to information collected by Medgo LLC web sites.
Security
Medgo LLC takes every precaution to protect all users’ information. When users submit sensitive information via Medgo LLC’s web sites, their information is protected both online and off-line.
When the Distributor Application, Customer Registration, and/or online order forms ask users to enter sensitive information (such as credit card number and/or social security number), that information is encrypted and is protected with the best encryption software in the industry – SSL. While on a secure page, such as the Distributor Application and Agreement and online order forms, the lock icon on the bottom of web browsers such as Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer becomes locked, as opposed to un-locked, or open, when users are just ‘surfing’.
While Medgo LLC uses SSL encryption to protect sensitive information online, the Company also does everything in our power to protect user information off-line. All user information, not just the sensitive information mentioned above, is restricted in Medgo LLC’s offices. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job are granted access to personally identifiable information. ALL employees are kept up-to-date on Company security and privacy practices. Finally, the servers that store personally identifiable information are in a secure environment.
