Your Personal Medical Information is stored securely in our databases without your personally identifying information associated with it.

Information Sharing and Disclosure
Sable’s Foods will give you the ability to connect with other individuals who have Sable’s Foods accounts through our sharing features. Whether you use these features is entirely your choice. In addition, you may choose to disclose, through other means not associated with Sable’s Foods, your Personal Information to friends, family members, groups of individuals, third-party service providers, doctors, other professionals, or other individuals. We recommend that you make such choices carefully.
Personal Information, once released or shared, can be difficult to contain. Sable’s Foods will have no responsibility or liability for any consequences that may result because you have released or shared Personal Information with a third party.

Sable’s Foods will not release your Personal Information to any outside company without your explicit consent.
Sable’s Foods may disclose your Personal Information for other purposes as stated below:
- Disclosure to Research Partners
One of Sable’s Foods' goals is to contribute to scientific research and the advancement of cancer treatments. To achieve our research goals, Sable’s Foods may enter into contracts with commercial and non-profit organizations that conduct scientific or medical research. These contracts may allow an organization access to our databases of anonymous Personal Medical Information, so that, for example, the organization can, without knowing the identities of the individuals involved, review the effect of certain cancer treatments on nutrition. We may receive compensation from these research partners. Before we embark on any research collaborations, we will establish a research advisory committee to guide such collaborations and undertakings. In addition, we will require partner organizations by contract to agree to maintain confidentiality consistent with this Privacy Statement. Organizations who contract with us will not have access to your Account Information (e.g., name, contact information, payment information).
On occasion, we may pass along a request to you from such a research partner, asking for you to participate in a specific study or to volunteer further information. The organization does not know to whom we send these queries and you have no obligation to respond.
- Disclosure to Commercial Partners
Sable’s Foods may enter into commercial arrangements to enable partners to provide our products and services to their customers or to provide you access to their products and services. We may collect fees for these referrals. We will require informed consent from you as a precondition to providing any Personal Information to these commercial partners.
- Disclosure Required By Law
Please be aware that under certain circumstances, Personal Information may be subject to disclosure pursuant to judicial or other government subpoenas, warrants or orders. If we are legally compelled to disclose your Personal Information to a third party, we will notify you with the contact information you have provided to us in advance unless doing so would violate the law or a court order.
- Non-Disclosure to Linked Websites
Sable’s Foods provides links to third-party websites operated by organizations not affiliated with Sable’s Foods. These links may be found within our content or placed beside the names or logos of these third parties. Sable’s Foods does not disclose your Personal Information to organizations operating third-party websites. We may receive compensation from organizations operating third-party websites, which will be noted on the page on which the link appears. Sable’s Foods does not review or endorse, and is not responsible for, the privacy practices of these organizations. We encourage you to read the privacy statements of each and every website that collects Personal Information. This Privacy Statement applies solely to information collected by Sable’s Foods.
Your Choices and Privacy Preferences
At Sable’s Foods, customer choice and control are critical to our goal of providing you with helpful products within a trusted environment.

Examples of such activities include sharing your account information with other Sable’s Foods customers, responding to surveys, joining Sable’s Foods-authorized research project, and subscribing to a newsletter.
If your Personal Information changes, or if you no longer wish to subscribe to our services, then you may correct, update, or delete your account by making the change via your account page, by sending a request to our Customer Support at info@sablesfoods.com.

In addition, we retain limited Account Information related to your order history (e.g., name, contact, and transaction data) for accounting and compliance purposes.
Children's Privacy
Sable’s Foods is committed to protecting the privacy of children, as well as adults. Neither Sable’s Foods nor any of its services are designed or intended to attract children under the age of 13.

This information includes Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet Service Provider, referring/exit pages, operating system, date/time stamp, and clickstream data (i.e., a list of pages or URLs visited). We use this information, which is not designed to identify individual users, to analyze trends, administer the site, track users' movements around the site, and gather demographic information about our user base as a whole. We may, in some circumstances, need to review this automatically collected data in combination with specific Account Information to identify and resolve issues for individual users.

Security
Sable’s Foods takes seriously the trust you place in us. To prevent unauthorized access or disclosure, to maintain data accuracy, and to ensure the appropriate use of information, Sable’s Foods uses a range of physical, technical and administrative procedures to safeguard the information we collect.
While there is always some risk of a security compromise, we tightly control access to personal information through the following technical, physical, and administrative security measures. By contract, we require third parties with whom we share Personal Information to implement appropriate security measures to maintain the confidentiality of such information.

- Our databases are designed to keep Personal Medical Information separate from Account Information.
- We encrypt storage of certain Personal Information, including Account Information and Personal Medical Information.
- We encrypt all connections to and from our website.
- We conduct internal and external audits of perimeter and software code security.
Physical:
- Physical access to internal servers is restricted to authorized personnel.

Please recognize that protecting your Personal Information is also your responsibility. We ask you to be responsible for safeguarding your password, secret questions and answers, and other authentication information you use to access our services. You should not disclose your authentication information to others and should immediately notify Sable’s Foods of any unauthorized use of your password. Sable’s Foods cannot secure Personal Information that you release on your own or that you request us to release.
Despite Sable’s Food’s efforts to protect your Personal Information, there is always some risk that an unauthorized third party may find a way around our security systems or that transmissions of your information over the Internet will be intercepted.
Business Transitions
If Sable’s Foods goes through a business transition such as a merger, acquisition by another company, or sale of all or a portion of its assets, your Personal Information and non-personal information will likely be among the assets transferred. You will be notified in advance via email and prominent notice on our website of any such change in ownership or control of your Personal Information. We will require an acquiring company or merger agreement to uphold the material terms of this Privacy Statement, including honoring requests for account deletion.
