Please refer back to this Privacy Policy regularly.
2. What type of PII does health guide and tip collect from you and how do we use it?
As stated above, you may provide certain PII to health guide and tip in order to have access to certain features on our Website(s). Such PII shall include basic biographical and contact information, e.g., your name and email address. We may also ask you for general statistical, non-personal information about yourself and your interests. Unless you provide PII to health guide and tip through our Website, we will not collect any PII from you.
health guide and tip uses the information we collect in a variety of ways. First, upon registering with health guide and tip, we may use your Personally Identifiable Information to create a customized Web experience for you and to improve our services. We may use PII to:
Receive feedback on editorial content.

We use this information to conduct internal market research and to prepare reports and analyses for our clients. However, our reports and analyses provided to clients and partners contain only anonymous data.
