1. What is Personal Information

When we use the term “personal information” (and its equivalent term “personal data” as defined by applicable data protection laws), we mean any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person, and information linked or linkable to an identified or identifiable natural person. “Natural person” means a living human being.

Personal information does not include data that is publicly available or has been “aggregated” or “de-identified” (and its equivalent term “anonymized” as defined by applicable data protection laws). Aggregated and de-identified data is non-personal information. This means we have removed any personally identifiable information (including names, email addresses, postal addresses, and telephone numbers), and the remaining data cannot be reasonably used to identify you or link you to the information in question.

2. Collection and Use of Information

We collect personal information that is relevant, adequate, and necessary to accomplish the purpose for which it is collected, and we minimize the amount of personal information we collect by using privacy-enabling technologies (including key coding, pseudonymous, de-identified, anonymous, and aggregated anonymous data management practices) when it would be reasonable to do so.

We use the following legal bases when we collect and use personal information:

  • With Your Consent to collect and use your personal information for one or more purposes.
  • In Performance of a Contract between you and Life Extension, or for the implementation of pre-contractual measures taken at your request.
  • To Comply with Legal Obligations, including: (i) to comply with applicable laws, rules, and regulations; (ii) to respond to and comply with court orders, subpoenas, and warrants, and criminal, civil, or regulatory investigations; (iii) to cooperate with government bodies and law enforcement requests; and (iv) to enforce our legal interests, exercise, prepare for, or defend our legal claims.
  • To Protect the Vital interests of an Individual, including where there are reasonable grounds to believe that our failure to act (by not disclosing certain personal information) could result in risk of death or serious bodily harm to you or others.
  • In Pursuit of Legitimate Interests, including to conduct business activities related to the products and services that we provide to you and others, and to operate our business.

We collect personal information about the following categories of natural persons:

  • Buyers, Customers, Shoppers, and Users.
  • Children, Parents and Legal Guardians (where we provide a service with parental consent).
  • Clinical Trial Volunteers.
  • Content Contributors and Writers (to our magazine, website, and other publications).
  • Consultants, Contractors, and Interns.

  • Web Visitors (to our live casts, podcasts, webinars, websites and other online services).

We collect personal information from the following categories of sources:

  • Information we collect directly from you depending on which services you request from us, how you engage with our services (including what personal information you choose to share on or through our services, and when communicating with us), and what specific personal information we need from you to provide these services (including information as required by applicable law).

When you create an account to access our online services, you will be asked to provide us with certain personal contact information (including your name, email address, and telephone number), which we will use to manage our relationship with you. If you intend to make a purchase, we will also need your postal address and payment information to process your orders and deliver our products to you. Furthermore, when you purchase certain restricted items from us (including laboratory tests and age-restricted supplements), we are required to collect your birth date or other personal identifying information, which we will use to confirm your age before processing these orders and to verify your identity prior to discussing your laboratory test results with you.

  • Information your organization provides to us that is necessary for you to use our services under a contractual agreement we have with your organization. We require your organization to obtain your individual consent before they disclose your personal information to us, and inform you about your data rights, including your right to withdraw consent to us using your personal information.

Your employer may provide us with your personal contact information (including your name, email address, and telephone number), which we will use to create and maintain an account for you to access our online services and allow you to place orders on behalf of your employer. We may also send you transactional messages about these orders and services, and other promotional and marketing communications based on your contact preferences.

  • Information we collect automatically depending on which services you request from us, how you engage with our services, and how you configured your device, browser, and email client to allow your data to be collected by our services, and when communicating with us (including emails, live chats, telephone and video calls, and text messages), which you can manage and control through your device, browser, and email client settings, and through other privacy choices described in this Global Notice.

We use CCTV video surveillance systems in and around our clinics, retail stores, and workplaces to monitor and record events relating to fraud detection, theft prevention, and security. This means you should expect to be recorded where security cameras are in plain sight.

We may also receive personal information from persons you have designated as your authorized agent.

We take precautions before responding to requests from persons claiming to be your authorized agent by requiring them to provide us with written documentation to verify that they are authorized to act on your behalf. Depending upon the documentation they provide to us, it may contain your name, email address, postal address, telephone number, court case number, and other personal information about you, which we will only use for the purpose of verification.

3. Information about Children

Our online services are not directed to persons under eighteen (18) years of age, and any person using our online services represents that they are at least eighteen (18) years of age before doing so.

We do not use our online services to knowingly collect personal information from children, which we consider to be persons under thirteen (13) years of age, or the equivalent age as otherwise specified by applicable law. If we learn that a child has provided their personal information on or through our online services without appropriate parent or legal guardian consent, we will promptly delete this information.

Where a parent or legal guardian would like their child to undergo Laboratory Testing or participate in Clinical Trials to the extent permitted by applicable law, the following procedures apply:

  • Collection, Processing, and Retention: we will provide notice to the parent or legal guardian and obtain their written authorization for the service and verifiable parental consent before collecting and processing personal information about their child. We will only collect personal information that is relevant, adequate and necessary to accomplish the purpose for which it is collected and retain it only for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purpose for which this information was authorized, and to comply with applicable laws, rules, and regulations. After the purpose and all requirements have been satisfied, we will promptly delete this information unless otherwise instructed by the parent or legal guardian.

14. Data Rights & Your Privacy Choices

Data protection laws may provide you with certain data rights to personal information that we have collected about you. Which data rights are available to you and how often you can submit these requests depends upon your country of residence, and the nature, scope, context, and purpose of your request.
