Where will the proceeds of Sale be directed?
I have spent thousands of dollars investigating upper cervical chiropractic, and wasted tens of thousands on what I call mainstream medical solutions(!), trying to get myself better. The investment in upper cervical chiropractic has been for me, from a health perspective, a worthwhile outlay of my time and money. My gift back to the profession for giving me my life back is my website and my desire to promote upper cervical chiropractic. I have kindly been offered donations to keep my site running and to enhance its content; however I do not wish to accept them and certainly will not be touting for them. If you wish to donate I would prefer that you donate to upper cervical chiropractic research. You choose which organization suits your objectives, philosophies and requirements. For those who are naturally cynical, the reasons I am selling products through my website are as follows. There are no other reasons!

1. To allocate funds towards upper cervical chiropractic research.
2. To help pay for the maintenance of the site, which involves paying my web designers to improve and update the site.
3. Purchasing and sometimes translating research materials. Translation of papers from foreign languages can be quite expensive.

Point number 1 is very important to me. I am absolutely certain that well directed research funds will reveal upper cervical chiropractic for what it is; a simply amazing approach to wellness which MUST be included as part of any personal wellness/health plans. Sadly this is not the case today.

This privacy policy covers all personal information we hold, that is, information, or an opinion, about an individual, whose identity is apparent, or can be reasonably ascertained, from that information or opinion. This includes information we have collected from people through retail stores, which may distribute our product from time to time, over the phone through our customer service centre and over the Internet.

The policy also covers personal information that we may have sourced from third parties.

The Privacy Act requires us to set out:

• Matters of which you should be aware regarding information we may collect about you
• Our policies on the management of personal information, and
• Generally, what sort of information we hold, for what purposes, and how we collect, hold, use and disclose that information

What personal information is collected and held?
So that we can provide services to you, we may ask for personal details such as your name, address, telephone number or e-mail address. Some examples of where we may need these details are home delivery, or in-store competitions and other promotions. Privacy law requires us to collect personal information about you only from you if it is reasonable and practical to do so and not to disclose this information to other parties without your complete approval.

Natural Health Sciences takes measures to ensure your personal information is protected from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, disclosure or alteration. We also take measures to destroy and/or permanently encrypt personal information when it is no longer required. The types of measures we take vary with the type of information, and how it is collected and stored.

Generally, you are not required to provide any information requested by us if you do not choose to do so. If you choose to withhold requested information however, we may not be able to provide you with the products and services that depend on the collection of that information, particularly if the collection of that information is required by law.

How do we use personal information asked for?
The personal information that we ask for is generally used to provide products or services to you. For example, for a telephone or Internet credit card transaction we need the name on the card, credit card number and expiry date, and for a competition we will need your contact details so that we can contact you in the event you won.

We may also use your personal information in other ways to provide you with the highest customer service. This may include using your personal information to advise you of new products and services. You have the right to tell us that you do not want us to send information to you other than for the main purpose for which we have collected your personal details.
