Usage and Device Data. When you access and use the Site, we automatically collect details of your access to and use of the Site, including traffic data, usage logs and other communication data, and the resources that you access and use on or through the Site (e.g., browsing history, search history). We may also collect information about your device and internet connection, including the device’s unique identifier (e.g., device type, IMEI, Wi-Fi MAC, IP address), operating system, browser type, and mobile network information. The Site may collect “diagnostic” data related to your use of the Site, such as crash data and logs, performance data (e.g., launch time, hang rate, or energy use), and any other data collected for the purposes of measuring technical diagnostics.

Cookies and Tracking Data. Cookies are pieces of information stored directly on the computer or device that you are using. Cookies allow us to collect information such as browser type, time spent on the Services, pages visited, language preferences, and other anonymous traffic data. We and our partners use the information for security purposes, to facilitate navigation, display information more effectively, and to personalize your experience while using the Services, as well as for online tracking purposes. We can recognize your computer to assist your use of the Services. We also gather statistical information about the usage of the Services in order to continually improve the design and functionality, understand how the Services are used, and to assist us with resolving questions regarding the Services.

If you do not want information collected through the use of cookies, there is a procedure in most browser settings that allows you to automatically decline cookies, or be given the choice of declining or accepting the transfer to your computer of a particular cookie (or cookies) from a particular site. You may also wish to refer to https://allaboutcookies.org/how-to-manage-cookies. If you reject cookies through your browser settings, you may still use our Services, but some parts of the Site may become inaccessible or not function properly.

Web Beacons. In addition, the Site may contain small electronic files known as web beacons (also referred to as clear gifs, pixel tags, and single-pixel gifs) that permit us to analyze data on your use of the Site (e.g., recording the popularity of certain content and verifying system and server integrity).

Embedded Scripts. An embedded script is programming code designed to collect information about your interactions with the Service. It is temporarily downloaded onto your computer from Muscle I.V. ’s web server, or from a third party with which Muscle I.V.  works, and is active only while you are connected to the Service, and deleted or deactivated thereafter.

Location-Identifying Technologies. GPS (global positioning systems) software, geo-filtering and other location-aware technologies locate you (sometimes precisely), or make assumptions about your location, for purposes such as verifying your location and delivering or restricting content, including third party ads, based on your location. If you have enabled GPS or use other location-based features on the Service, your device location may be tracked by us and third parties. Our store finder feature may access and use information about your device location (such as based on IP address or GPS, as applicable), or your account information, to suggest appropriate store locations. Our Service content may be personalized based on various information we may have about you to try to provide you with location-relevant content.

Device Recognition Technologies. Technologies, including application of statistical probability to data sets, as well as linking a common unique identifier to different device use (e.g., Facebook ID), which attempt to recognize or make assumptions about users and devices (e.g., that a user of multiple devices is the same user or household) (“Cross-device Data”).

In-App Tracking Methods. There are a variety of tracking technologies that may be included in mobile applications, which are not browser-based like cookies and cannot be controlled by browser settings. Some use device identifiers, or other identifiers such as “Ad IDs” to associate app user activity to a particular app and to track user activity across apps and/or devices.

Device and Activity Monitoring. Technologies that monitor, and may record, certain of your interactions with the Service, including without limitation, keystrokes, and/or collect and analyze information from your device, such as, without limitation, your operating system, plug-ins, system fonts, and other data, for purposes such as identification, security, fraud prevention, troubleshooting, tracking and/or improving the Service and customizing or optimizing your experience on the Service.

In the event that you facilitate a transaction with Muscle I.V., or request information from or otherwise engage with us, and such activities require Muscle I.V. to share your personal information with a service provider or other third party, you hereby consent to such disclosure and/or direct Muscle I.V. to intentionally disclose your personal information to the service provider or third party, provided Muscle I.V. has determined, in its reasonable judgment, that either (i) the service provider or third party will not sell the personal information or (ii) disclosing the personal information is required or permitted by law.

7. Social Media

We may engage with you on various social media platforms (e.g., TikTok, Facebook, X (formally known as Twitter), Pinterest, Instagram). If you contact us on one of these platforms for customer support or otherwise, we may contact you via the social media’s direct message tools. Those communications are governed by this Privacy Policy as well as the policies and terms of the relevant social media platform. The information we receive will depend on the terms that govern your use of the social media platform(s) and any privacy settings you may have set. The Site includes social media features and widgets (e.g., the “TikTok Like” button, the “Share” button) or interactive mini-programs that run on the Site. These features may collect your IP address and which Site page you are accessing and may set a cookie to enable the feature to function properly. Social media features and widgets are either hosted by a third party or hosted directly on the Site. Your interactions with these features are governed by the privacy statement of the relevant social media platform that provides them.

8. Links to Other Websites; Your Direct Third-Party Disclosures

As a resource to you, the Site may include links to third-party websites or provide you the opportunity to disclose information directly to third parties (e.g., credit card processors). The inclusion of a link on the Services does not imply endorsement of the linked site or service by us or by our affiliates.

If you access third-party services, such as social media sites or other sites linked through the Services (including links to videos on our Services hosted by third parties such as TikTok, YouTube, Instagram), these third-party services will be able to collect personal information about you, including information about your activity on the Services, and they may notify your connections on the third-party services about your use of the Services, in accordance with their own privacy policies.

Our Privacy Policy does not apply to such third-party websites or organizations. You assume all privacy, security, and other risks associated with providing any data, including personal information, to third parties via the Services. For a description of the privacy protections associated with providing information to third parties, you should refer to the privacy statements, if any, provided by those third parties.

In addition, if you choose to engage in public activities on the Services, including for instance if you engage on message boards, chat, profile pages, blogs, or our Social Media Pages, you should be aware that any information you post or disclose will become public information. Users of the Services and the general public may read, collect, or use that information. We urge you to be careful when disclosing your  information. We are not responsible for the information you choose to submit in these public areas.

9. Data Retention and Localization

We will retain the personal information we collect only for so long as reasonably necessary for  the purposes and criteria outlined in this Privacy Policy. When determining retention of personal information we take into account the length of time personal information is required to be retained to provide the services; to satisfy legal and compliance obligations and for audit purposes; to address any complaints regarding the services; to address any relevant litigation or regulatory investigations; and to defend or bring potential legal claims. In all other cases, we retain your personal information for as long as is needed to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy.

International Visitors. Muscle I.V. is based in the United States and the personal information that we collect and process is retained and stored in the United States. Muscle I.V. uses service providers that store personal information on our behalf in the United States and in other third countries. Please be aware that the United States, and these other third countries, may not provide the same level of protection of personal information as in your country, state, or other jurisdiction of residence or nationality, and when transferred to the United States or elsewhere, your personal information may be accessible by, or otherwise made available to, local government authorities and officials pursuant to judicial and/or administrative orders, decrees, and demands, and/or other domestic laws, statutes, and regulations. By continuing to provide us such information, you hereby consent to your personal information being transferred to, and stored in, the United States and in other third countries.

10. Security

We seek to protect the security of your personal information and use a variety of security technologies and procedures to help protect your personal information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. HOWEVER, NO INFORMATION SYSTEM CAN BE FULLY SECURE AND WE CANNOT GUARANTEE THE ABSOLUTE SECURITY OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION. MOREOVER, WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE SECURITY OF PERSONAL INFORMATION YOU TRANSMIT TO THE SITE AND/OR THE SERVICES OVER NETWORKS THAT WE DO NOT CONTROL, INCLUDING THE INTERNET AND WIRELESS NETWORKS, AND YOU PROVIDE US WITH ANY PERSONAL INFORMATION AND DATA AT YOUR OWN RISK. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE SHALL NOT BE LIABLE OR OTHERWISE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DATA INCIDENT OR EVENT THAT MAY COMPROMISE THE CONFIDENTIALITY, INTEGRITY, OR SECURITY OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION. The safety and security of your personal information also depends on you. Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a username and password to access our Services, you are responsible for maintaining the security and confidentiality of those credentials and not revealing them to others. You must contact us immediately if you have reason to believe that your username or password to our Services has been compromised. You acknowledge and agree that we may contact you via email or other electronic communications in the event we are legally required to notify you of a data security incident or event related to your personal information.

11. No Data Collected from Children

The Service is intended for a general audience and not directed to children less than 16 years of age. As a result, we will not knowingly collect information from children under sixteen (16) years of age without verified consent from their parents or guardians. If you are under the age of sixteen (16), you are prohibited from accessing or using the Services (including the Site) or with providing us with your personal information, unless you provide us written and verifiable authorization from your parent or legal guardian permitting you to do so. If we learn that we possess information from a child under the age of 16 (without parental or legal guardian consent), we will delete such information in accordance with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”) or other applicable laws (such as the California Consumer Privacy Act). If you are a parent or guardian and you believe that your child under the age of 16 has provided us with Personal Information, please contact us.

California residents under the age of eighteen (18) who have registered to use the Service, and who posted content or information on the Service, can request removal by contacting Muscle I.V. at support@muscle-iv.com, (Attention: Chief Operations Officer), detailing where the content or information is posted and attesting that you posted it. Muscle I.V. will then make reasonable, good faith efforts to remove the post from prospective public view or anonymize it so the minor cannot be individually identified to the extent required by applicable law. This removal process cannot ensure complete or comprehensive removal. For instance, third parties may have republished or archived content by search engines and others that Muscle I.V. does not control.

12. Publicly Posted Information, User Generated Content, Product Reviews

The Site may permit you to post or submit user-generated content (“UGC”) including written content, user profiles, audio or visual recordings, computer graphics, pictures, data, or other content. If you choose to submit UGC to any public area of the Service, your UGC will be considered “public” and not Personal Information. UGC is not subject to this Privacy Policy, and may be used and shared to the fullest extent not prohibited by applicable law. Muscle I.V. encourages you to exercise caution when making decisions about what you disclose in such public areas. For more information on how UGC is treated, see Section 9 of our Terms of Use. California minors should see Section 8 of this Policy regarding potential removal of certain UGC they have posted on the Service.

Additionally, the Site may offer you the option to send a communication to a friend or other contact—for example, by including a gift message when you purchase products for someone else. Muscle I.V. relies on you to only send communications to people who have given you permission to do so.

The Site may provide you with the ability to submit a comment on, provide an opinion about, rate, or otherwise discuss our Services (a “Product Review”) or provide other information on the Site which may be posted to a publicly available portion of the Site. Any information or content you post in a Product Review will be available to other users of the Site and may be retrievable by third-party search engines, and third parties may also be able to download or share your Product Review to social media websites or elsewhere. We recommend that you guard your privacy and anonymity and not upload any information in your Product Review that you wish to remain confidential. Any third party with access to your information via the Site will be permitted to use the information in the same manner as if you submitted the information directly to that third party. Publicly posting any information on the Site is entirely voluntary on your part and we recommend you carefully consider the information you choose to make publicly available.

13. Your Responsibilities

You are permitted, and hereby agree, to only provide personal information to Muscle I.V. if such personal information is accurate, reliable, and relevant to our relationship and only to the extent such disclosure will not violate any applicable data protection law, statute, or regulation or infringe upon a person’s data privacy rights or privileges. IF YOU PROVIDE PERSONAL INFORMATION (INCLUDING PERSONAL INFORMATION CONCERNING A THIRD PARTY) TO Muscle I.V., YOU EXPRESSLY REPRESENT AND WARRANT TO Muscle I.V. THAT YOU HAVE THE FULL RIGHT AND AUTHORITY TO PROVIDE Muscle I.V. WITH SUCH PERSONAL INFORMATION (INCLUDING PERSONAL INFORMATION CONCERNING A THIRD PARTY) AND THAT Muscle I.V.’S USE AND PROCESSING OF SUCH PERSONAL INFORMATION AS SET FORTH HEREIN WILL NOT VIOLATE ANY PERSON’S RIGHTS OR PRIVILEGES, INCLUDING RIGHTS TO PRIVACY. YOU HEREBY AGREE TO FULLY AND COMPLETELY INDEMNIFY Muscle I.V. FOR ANY CLAIMS, HARM, OR DAMAGES THAT MAY ARISE FROM YOUR PROVISION OF PERSONAL INFORMATION (INCLUDING PERSONAL INFORMATION CONCERNING A THIRD PARTY) TO MUSCLE I.V..

14. Updating Your Information

It is important that the personal information that you provide to us is accurate and reliable. You have the ability to update your personal information at “checkout” when you purchase a good or product. In certain circumstances, you may have the ability to directly edit your account to update and change your personal information (e.g., name, telephone number, email, shipping address) and you must do so, when such changes are warranted. If your account does not contain such features, then you must directly notify Muscle I.V. of any changes or updates to your personal information in accordance with the “Contact Us” section listed below.

15. Email Marketing and Your Rights

You hereby agree to immediately notify Muscle I.V., in writing, in the event you no longer own, license, or use an email address to which you subscribed to receive email marketing from us.

16. SMS/Text Marketing and Your Rights 

Muscle I.V. offers a Mobile Program in which we send participants text messages related to our Services, marketing programs, and discounts. By participating in the Mobile Program, you agree to receive autodialed or prerecorded marketing mobile messages and you understand that you are not required to make any purchase from us to participate in our Mobile Program.

In particular, Muscle I.V. will, to the extent required or permitted by law, require you (or your authorized agent) to verify your request via email, request certain contact information or government identifiers, and we will match at least two pieces of such personal information with data that we have previously collected from you before granting you access to, erasing, or correcting, specific pieces or categories of personal information, or otherwise responding to your request. We may require written documentation that demonstrates a third party is authorized to serve as your agent for the purposes of submitting the requests set forth herein, unless you have provided the authorized agent with power of attorney pursuant to California Probate Code §§ 4121 to 4130. None of the CCPA’s rights are absolute, and such rights are subject to legal and regulatory exceptions and exemptions. For more information about the CCPA, please see: https://oag.ca.gov/privacy/ccpa.

Opt-Out Rights / Do Not Sell My Personal Information. California residents have the right to opt out of the “sale” of their personal information. However, Muscle I.V. does not sell your personal information to third parties for profit or monetary or other valuable consideration, and therefore we do not provide opt-out request processes for the sale of personal information (because we do not undertake such activities).

Muscle I.V. uses third-party analytical and targeted advertising features on our Site and similar web tools provided by our marketing partners, and such features, tools and marketing relationships involve the disclosure of your personal information to third parties and may constitute the “sharing” of your personal information for CCPA purposes.

Limit Use of Sensitive Personal Information. Muscle I.V. does not use or disclose sensitive personal information for reasons other than those set forth in the CCPA, and therefore we do not provide individuals with the ability to limit how we use or disclose such sensitive personal information.

23. Do-Not-Track Signals

Some web browsers may transmit “do-not-track” signals to the website with which the user communicates. Because of differences in how web browsers incorporate and activate this feature, it is not always clear whether users intend for these signals to be transmitted, or whether they are even aware of them. Unless otherwise required by law, we currently do not take action in response to these signals.

24. Analytics and Advertising Tracking Technologies

Some You may exercise choices regarding the use of cookies from Google Analytics by going to https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout or downloading the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

You may choose not to receive some interest-based advertising by submitting opt-outs. Some of the advertisers and Service Providers that perform advertising-related services for us may participate in the Digital Advertising Alliance’s (“DAA”) Self-Regulatory Program for Online Behavioral Advertising. To learn more about how you can exercise certain choices regarding interest-based advertising, including use of Cross-device Data for serving ads, visit http://www.aboutads.info/choices/, and http://www.aboutads.info/appchoices for information on the DAA’s opt-out program specifically for mobile apps (including use of precise location for third party ads). Some of these companies may also be members of the Network Advertising Initiative (“NAI”). To learn more about the NAI and your opt-out options for their members, see http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/. Please be aware that, even if you are able to opt out of certain kinds of interest-based advertising, you may continue to receive other types of ads. Opting out only means that those selected members should no longer deliver certain Interest-based advertising to you, but does not mean you will no longer receive any targeted content and/or ads (e.g., from other ad networks). Also, if your browsers are configured to reject cookies when you visit these opt-out webpages, or you subsequently erase your cookies, use a different device or web browser or use a non-browser-based method of access (e.g., mobile app), your NAI / DAA browser-based opt-out may not be effective.

We also use advertising services provided by Google Ad Services and Microsoft Advertising Services. To learn more about the data Google collects and how your data is used by it and to opt out of certain Google browser interest-based advertising, please visit here. To learn about the data Microsoft collects and how your data is used by it and to opt out of certain Microsoft browser interest-based advertising, please visit here.

In addition, we may serve ads on third-party services that are targeted to reach people on those services that are also identified on one or more of our databases (“Matched List Ads”). This is done by using tracking technologies or by matching common factors between our databases and the databases of the third-party services. For instance, we may use such ad services offered by Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, or X (formally known as Twitter). We are not responsible for these third-party services, including without limitation their security of the data they hold about you. If we use Facebook to serve Matched List Ads on Facebook services, you should be able to hover over the box in the right corner of such a Facebook ad, or go to your account settings, and find out what options Facebook offers you to control such ads. If we use X (formally known as Twitter) Matched List Ads, you should be able to review your ad options in account settings on X. LinkedIn also offers controls that can limit the ads targeted to you, which are available within its Settings & Privacy menu.

Muscle I.V. is not responsible for effectiveness of, or compliance with, any third parties’ opt-out options or programs or the accuracy of their statements regarding their programs.

Muscle I.V. may use personal information gathered from, or related to, participants in our Rewards Programs for any other purpose or in any other manner set forth in this Privacy Policy.

California Rewards Program Rights. Pursuant to the CCPA, you may be entitled to be informed as to why financial incentive programs, or price or service differences, are permitted under the law, including (i) a good-faith estimate of the value of your personal information that forms the basis for offering the financial incentive or price or service difference, and (ii) a description of the method we used to calculate the value of your personally information. Generally, we do not assign monetary or other value to personal information. However, in the event we are required by law to assign such value in the context of Rewards Programs, or price or service differences, we have valued the personal information collected and used as being equal to the value of the discount or financial incentive provided, and the calculation of the value is based upon a practical and good-faith effort often involving (i) the categories of personal information collected (e.g., names, email addresses), (ii) the transferability of such personal information for us and our Rewards Programs, (iii) the discounted price offered, (iv) the volume of consumers enrolled in our Rewards Programs, and (v) the product or service to which the Rewards Programs, or price or service differences, apply. The disclosure of the value described herein is not intended to waive, nor should it be interpreted as a waiver to, our proprietary or business confidential information, including trade secrets, and does not constitute any representation with regard to generally accepted accounting principles or financial accounting standards.
