This Policy describes the types of information we may collect from you or that you may provide when you visit our Site or use our Services, and our practices for collecting, using, maintaining, protecting, and disclosing that information. We also describe the measures we take to protect the security of the information and how to contact us about our privacy practices.

Please review this Privacy Policy carefully. If you do not agree with our policies and practices, you may choose not to use our Site or our Services. By accessing and using the Site or our Services, you accept and agree to this Privacy Policy, whether or not you register for an account through the Site.

You don’t have to use the Site, but if you do, you acknowledge that Kiinilife collects and uses your Personal Information for the legitimate interests and purposes described in this Privacy Policy. We collect Personal Information when you register on our Site, use our Services, and when you choose to provide information through our Site. The types of Personal Information you may provide include:

Demographic information (e.g., date of birth, gender);
Physical attributes (e.g., height, weight);
Medical history;

Photographic images submitted for identification or non-diagnosis purposes, including photographs of your driver’s license or passport;
Username and password.
In addition, when you visit our Site, we may collect certain Personal Information by automated means, such as cookies and web beacons. The information we obtain in this manner includes: IP address; browser characteristics; device characteristics; operating system; referring URLs; geographic location; information on actions taken on our Site; and dates and times of website visits. A “cookie” is a text file that websites send to a visitor’s computer or other Internet-connected device to uniquely identify the visitor’s browser or to store information or settings in the browser. A “web beacon,” also known as an Internet tag, pixel tag or clear GIF, links web pages to web servers and their cookies and may be used to transmit information collected through cookies back to a web server. Through these automated collection methods, we obtain “clickstream data,” which is a log of content on which a visitor clicks while browsing a website.
As you click through the Site, a record of the action may be collected and stored. Your browser may tell you how to be notified when you receive certain types of cookies or how to restrict or disable certain types of cookies. Please note, however, that without cookies you may not be able to use all of the features of our Site.
Finally, the Medical Practices are regulated as “covered entities” under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (“HIPAA”). Please be aware that this Privacy Policy is distinct from the Medical Practices’ Notice of Privacy Practices, which describes in detail how your protected health information is used and disclosed. If you would like to review a copy of the Medical Practices’ Notice of Privacy Practices, please request a copy directly from your Provider.
Some of our business partners with whom we contract to carry out the Services (e.g., website providers) may use their cookies on our Site. Although we may not have direct access to or control over such cookies, this Privacy Policy governs the use of cookies by us and such business partners on our Site. We may also allow social media companies (e.g., Facebook) to put “widgets” on our websites. These third-party tools may also be used to track you across websites. For example, so long as you are logged in to Facebook, every time you land on a webpage that has a Facebook widget, Facebook will know you are on that webpage. We do not control the privacy practices of these third parties.
Some internet browsers allow you to limit or disable the use of tracking technologies that collect unidentified information, such as a “Do Not Track” (“DNT”) setting. Currently, we do not respond to DNT signals.

These service providers use technologies such as cookies, web server logs and web beacons to help us analyze how visitors use the Site.

Personal Information does not include “aggregate” or “de-identified” information. Aggregate or de-identified information is data we collect about a group of users, from which individual identities have been removed. In other words, information about how you use the Services, or the results of such use, may be collected and combined with similar information from others, but no Personal Information will be included in the resulting aggregate or de-identified data. We can extract statistical data from your content in order to provide it to other users or partners without connecting it to any personal data such as name or email address. Aggregate or de-identified data helps us understand trends and user needs so that we can better consider new products and services, and tailor existing products and services to customer desires. You understand that we may commercialize aggregate or de-identified information by any and all means, and that you will receive no payment or other consideration in respect of such use. In addition, we may share and disclose aggregate or de-identified information for any purpose.
We are subject to multiple laws on the retention of Personal Information and will retain your Personal Information, even if you have closed your account, for as long as is reasonably necessary to comply with our business and legal obligations, meet regulatory requirements, resolve disputes, maintain security, prevent fraud and abuse, or fulfill your request to “unsubscribe” from further messages from us. Similarly, our third party partners may retain your Personal Information for as long as is necessary for them to comply with their legal and business obligations.
We take reasonable and appropriate measures to protect your Personal Information from accidental, unlawful or unauthorized destruction, loss, alteration, access, disclosure or use. We implement certain physical, administrative, and technical safeguards that are designed to protect the integrity and security of your Personal Information.

If you are a California resident, this section supplements the information above regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of your Personal Information.
The California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”) gives California consumers the right to know what Personal Information is collected about them, how it will be used and to whom it is disclosed. The CCPA gives California consumers the right to request access to and deletion of their Personal Information, and the right to request that their Personal Information not be sold to the extent applicable under the CCPA.
The purpose of this notice is to describe our practices regarding the collection, use, disclosure, and sale of Personal Information and instructions for submitting CCPA data privacy requests. Some of the Personal Information that we collect, use, and disclose may be exempt from the CCPA because it is regulated by other federal and state laws that apply to us.
We collect Personal Information from you when you interact with us online through our Site. The Personal Information we may collect from you will depend on the nature of our interaction with you. In the last 12 months, we have collected the following categories (as described in the CCPA) of Personal Information: identifiers, protected classification information, commercial information, internet/network information, geolocation data, audio and visual information, professional or employment information, and inferences drawn from the foregoing categories of information to create a profile about you. For further details, see the “Personal Information We Collect” section above. We collect this information for the purposes described in the “How We Use the Personal Information We Collect” and “Personal Information We Share” sections above.
The CCPA provides you (as a California resident) with specific rights, subject to certain exceptions.
Right to Know. You have the right under the CCPA to request that we disclose what Personal Information we collect, use, disclose, and sell. The process for exercising this right is described below in the “How to Submit a Data Privacy Request” section. Please note that we may not be required to provide you access to the specific pieces of information we have collected about you or delete information if we are unable to verify your identity.
Right to Deletion. You have the right under the CCPA to request deletion of any Personal Information about you that we have collected from you. The process for exercising this right is described below under the “How to Submit a Data Privacy Request” section. We may not be required to delete Personal Information under certain circumstances. Specifically, the CCPA includes exemptions that provide that we do not have to delete information that, for example, is necessary to comply with legal obligations including those pertaining to the quality, safety or effectiveness of a product or activity regulated by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), complete a transaction, detect security incidents, or for certain other internal purposes.
Right to Opt-Out. You have the right under the CCPA to opt-out of the sale of your Personal Information. The CCPA defines “sale” broadly to include sharing, transferring, disclosing or otherwise communicating Personal Information with a third party for monetary or other valuable consideration. We do not sell your Personal Information.
Right to Non-Discrimination. You have the right under the CCPA not to be discriminated against for exercising your rights
You may exercise your Right to Know and Right to Deletion by emailing us at support@kiinilife.com. To process your request to exercise your Right to Know and Right to Deletion, we must be able to verify your identity to a reasonable degree of certainty. To verify your identity, we will ask you to provide your contact information and additional identifiers based on your relationship with us. Before we process your request, we will match these data points with data points we currently maintain to verify your identity and your relationship with us.
You may designate an authorized agent to make a request to exercise your Right to Know or Right to Deletion on your behalf. When you use an authorized agent to submit such a request, you must provide the authorized agent with written permission to do so, and, in certain circumstances, we may ask you to verify your own identity directly with us. We may deny a request from an authorized agent that does not submit proof that they have been authorized by you to act on your behalf.
At our sole discretion, we may make changes to this Privacy Policy at any time. When changes are made, we will post an updated Privacy Policy on our Site. The changes will apply to all Personal Information we have about you. All changes are effective immediately upon posting; the date the Privacy Policy was last revised is identified at the top of the page. If you access and use our Site or Services after the date on which the Privacy Policy has changed, Kiinilife will treat your use as acceptance of the updated Privacy Policy. You are expected to check this page from time to time so you are aware of any changes, as they are binding on you.
Kiinilife commits to resolve questions and comments about your privacy and our collection and use of your information. Individuals with inquiries or comments should contact Kiinilife at: support@kiinilife.com.
