Our Privacy Policy will explain what information we collect when you visit our site, how we use that information, and what choices you have about how that information is used. We urge you to read our entire Privacy Policy so that you will understand our commitment to you and your privacy.
Information You Voluntarily Provide
PERSONAL/CONTACT INFORMATION
When you place an order on our Site, we collect your name, email address, mobile phone number, mailing address, and credit card number. The personally identifiable information we collect when you place an order or register for membership on our Site may be used for any of the following purposes:
- to fulfill your requests for products and services
- to notify you of order, delivery, and shipment statuses
- to provide you with offers from FlexPro Meals
- to contact you when necessary
- to review Site usage and operations
- to address problems with the Site, our business or our products and services
- to protect the security or integrity of the Site and our business.
Your personal information may be shared with reputable third-party associates of FlexPro Meals that work with us to provide products and services to our customers. We may use this information for marketing campaigns in order to market products and services [to you directly, unless you have asked us not to]. We may also disclose your information to third parties if the law requires it or to protect the rights or property of FlexPro Meals.
If you do not want to receive additional promotions from us, please let us know by unsubscribing by emailing us at [email protected] and/or [email protected]. If you opt-out of promotional or newsletter emails from FlexPro Meals, we may continue to send you certain transactional communications, such as service announcements and administrative messages relating to FlexPro Meals that are necessary for our relationship with you.
We collect your mobile phone number to assist in shipping your order to you. You may also choose to receive SMS text updates from us regarding your order status. You may opt out of receiving text messages at any time by texting STOP to the sender. For more information about text messages, see our Terms and Conditions.
Mobile marketing campaigns may involve you sending an email from your mobile device to us or a third-party campaign operator. An e-mail or other response will then be sent to your mobile device. Opting to participate in a campaign is solely your choice. When you engage in these mobile marketing campaigns, we and the third-party campaign operator may collect your mobile phone number, the name of your wireless service provider, images that you send using your mobile device as part of the campaign, and other relevant information.
HEALTH AND AGE INFORMATION
When you register for membership on our Site, we also collect your basic health profile information when you actively give us such information. The health and age information we collect allows FlexPro Meals to evaluate your self-reported health status to determine basic program eligibility. You will be notified at registration if your profile excludes you from participation in the plan. FlexPro Meals will not disclose your health and age information (including self-reported height and weight) to third parties.
CREDIT CARD AND PAYMENT INFORMATION
FlexPro Meals does not share payment information with third parties.
INFORMATION PROVIDED IN OPTIONAL SURVEYS
FlexPro Meals periodically asks members to participate in online surveys or to fill out online questionnaires concerning topics such as the effectiveness of the weight loss program, advertising effectiveness, and customer satisfaction. All surveys and questionnaires are optional and the information collected will not be associated with any user’s personal information. Information gathered may be shared with third parties in order to improve customer satisfaction and program effectiveness. No personal information of any user will be connected to survey or questionnaire results.
OTHER INFORMATION YOU MAY VOLUNTARILY PROVIDE
From time to time, FlexPro Meals collects third-party email addresses or other contact information from our users and customers so that FlexPro Meals may send information to their friends and family on an as-requested basis. For example, FlexPro Meals collects email addresses when a customer provides us with that information so that we may send out Referral Giftcards. We also require the same information when customers utilize certain functions such as “email this to a friend” features.

OUR BULLETIN BOARDS, SOCIAL MEDIA PAGES, CHAT ROOMS & USER BLOGS

Please keep in mind that whenever you voluntarily disclose personal information online (whether it is on message boards, through email, in meeting rooms, on social media pages or in blogs) your information can be collected and used by others.
