The Lifestyle Way Policy
THE LIFESTYLE WAY (“we”, “our”, and “us”) takes your privacy and the security of your
information very seriously, and we encourage you to read this privacy policy (“Policy”)
carefully to understand how we collect and handle information that you share with
us. This Policy describes the type of information we collect from you and the steps we
take to protect that information. All references in this Policy to “website” include all of
THE LIFESTYLE WAY’s websites. "Personal Information" as used in this Policy means
information that can be used to identify you, directly or indirectly, alone or together with
other information.
WHAT INFORMATION DOES THE LIFESTYLE WAY COLLECT FROM ME?
We collect certain information from you when you share that information with us, when
you use our website, attend our events, visit our stores, communicate with us such as by email,
phone call or text message, interact with us through social media, and when you
purchase our products from us.
• Personal Information:
o We may collect certain personal information you share with us,
including, but not limited to, your name, company name, physical
address, hometown, telephone number, birthday, gender, and email
address.
o If you create an account with us, we also collect your login and account
information, including your username and password.
o When you purchase products from us, we will additionally collect your
billing address and shipping information.
o We may collect information about your personal preferences including
marketing and cookie preferences.
• Website Visit Information: We also collect certain types of non-personal
information whenever you visit our website. By “Site Visit Information” we mean
information that does not directly identify you personally, such as IP address,
device information, unique identifiers, and browser information.
• Aggregate Information: Aggregate Information is information that does not identify
you in any way. Aggregate Information may be collected when you visit our
website, independent of any information you voluntarily enter. Additionally, we
may use one or more processes to de-identify information that contains Personal
Information, such that only Aggregate Information remains. We may collect, use,
store, and transfer Aggregate Information without restriction.
WHAT DOES THE LIFESTYLE WAY DO WITH THE INFORMATION IT COLLECTS?
We will only use your information for the purposes for which we have collected it, or the
purposes set forth in this Policy, unless you consent otherwise. We will not disclose your
Personal Information to third parties other than as described in this Policy, unless you give
us consent to do so. We do not sell or lease your information to third-parties.
• THE LIFESTYLE WAY’s use of your Personal, Analytics, and Site Visit Information:
This information helps us operate our website, fulfill orders you place with us,
and provide other services, including advertisements, ad serving, and technical
support. We also use this information to suggest products and promotions to
you, and to send you updates about our company, our events, and our initiatives.
• THE LIFESTYLE WAY’s sharing of Personal, Analytics, and Site Visit Information: We
may share this information with our service providers to assist us with operating
our website, selling our products and services, our advertising, and our technical
support. We also share Personal Information with third parties to help us provide
products and services to you such as fulfilling and delivering orders and
processing payments. In these situations, you are using and directing us to
intentionally disclose Personal Information so our products and services and your
requests can be provided to you. If you place an international order through our
website, your information will be shared with our third-party international
reseller, as further described in the “International Orders” section below.
• Legal and Law Enforcement Requests: We may disclose, at our sole discretion, your
Personal, Analytics and Site Visit information as required by law, or to comply
with a legally binding request—such as a subpoena, warrant, or similar legally
enforceable request for information.
• Other Uses and Disclosures: We may also share and disclose your Personal,
Analytics, and Site Visit Information: (i) to investigate a possible crime, such as
fraud or identity theft; (ii) in connection with the sale, purchase, merger,
reorganization, liquidation or dissolution of THE LIFESTYLE WAY; (iii) when we
believe it is necessary to protect the rights, property, or safety of THE LIFESTYLE
WAY or other persons; or (iv) as otherwise required or permitted by law, including
any contractual obligations of THE LIFESTYLE WAY.
DOES THE LIFESTYLE WAY USE COOKIES OR BEACONS?
Most websites, including our website, use “Cookies” – which are electronic files that
websites place on a visitor’s computer to store information that makes each visit to the site
more efficient. We use both “session” and “persistent” cookies on our website. A session
cookie stores information about you only while you are visiting our site, then is deleted
when you leave our site. Persistent cookies store information about you, your preferences,
and information about other websites you visit, and it remains on your computer or device
after you leave our website. To remove cookies, you may configure your browser to clear
all cookies, or configure it to reject cookies whenever you visit a new website. Please
consult your browser’s user guide for specific instructions on removing cookies.
“Beacons” are small graphic files with a unique identifier that are used to track a web or
mobile site user’s online movements. Unlike cookies, beacons are embedded on websites
or in email communications, not downloaded on your computer or device. We use
beacons to better manage and track content on our website and our marketing campaigns,
and to better understand your interactions with our website and communications.
Additionally, if you sign up for our SMS text messaging program, cookies may be used to
personalize your experience (e.g. send you personalized text messages such as shopping
cart reminders).
DOES THE LIFESTYLE WAY COLLECT PAYMENT CARD INFORMATION THROUGH ITS
WEBSITE?
We partner with Qorus.io to process credit and debit card transactions completed through
our website. Your credit or debit card information is never shared with us, and at no point
in any transaction do we have access to that information. You should consult
Authorize.net privacy Policy and terms of use to learn more about how it processes credit
and debit card transactions for us by visiting https://usa.visa.com/legal/privacypolicy.

DOES THE LIFESTYLE WAY TRACK MY ACTIVITY ACROSS OTHER WEBSITES?
When you visit our website, we automatically collect the name of the website you visited
from (called the “referring page”) and the name of the website you chose to visit
immediately after ours (called the “exit page”), and information about other websites you
have recently visited. Please note that because there is no consistent industry
understanding of how to respond to “Do Not Track” signals, we do not alter our data
collection and usage practices when we detect such a signal from your browser. When our
website detects a Do Not Track signal from your browser, it will still collect referring and
exit page information and other information when you visit our website.
CAN I CHOOSE TO STOP RECEIVING MARKETING MESSAGES FROM THE LIFESTYLE WAY
OR CHANGE MY PERSONAL INFORMATION?
If you opt-in, or when you purchase our products, we may send you newsletters and other
messages, including marketing emails, SMS text messages, and other communication
about our products and services, and to alert you to relevant advertisements and other
opportunities. You can always choose to stop receiving newsletters or other
communications from us by clicking the “unsubscribe” link at the bottom of any THE
LIFESTYLE WAY marketing message. To stop receiving SMS text marketing
communications from us, you may text "STOP", "END", "CANCEL", "UNSUBSCRIBE", or
"QUIT" to a text message from us. After texting STOP, END, CANCEL, UNSUBSCRIBE or
QUIT to our shortcode you will receive one additional message confirming that your
request has been processed. If you unsubscribe from one of our text message programs,
you may continue to receive text messages from us through any other programs you have
joined until you separately unsubscribe from those programs.
You can delete, change, or update your Personal Information at any time by contacting us
at ashley@thelifestyleway.fit. We may require you to provide certain information to verify
that it is you making the request. However, note we will not delete information that we
are required to retain in order to comply with applicable laws and regulations, or that we
are required to retain in order to complete transactions with you.
CAN CHILDREN USE THE LIFESTYLE WAY’S WEBSITE?
Our website is not directed at children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect Personal
Information or other information from children under 16. If you are the parent of a child
under the age of 16, and you believe he or she has shared information with us, please
contact us at ashley@thelifestyleway.fit so we can remove their information from our
systems.

Personal Information today, and we do not have plans to sell Personal Information in the
future. However, Nevada residents have the legal right to opt out of the sale of their
Personal Information, even if their information is not currently being sold. You may opt out

WHAT IF I FOLLOW A LINK TO A THIRD-PARTY WEBSITE?
Our website and our social media posts may contain links to third-party websites. Those
websites are governed by their own privacy and data use practices and policies. We do not
have control over the privacy practices of the advertisers or other third-parties operating
these websites, and we have no control over how these third parties collect or use the
information you chose to share with them.
HOW DOES THE LIFESTYLE WAY PROTECT MY INFORMATION?
We take the security of your personal information very seriously. We use reasonable
administrative, physical, and technical safeguards to secure the personal information you
share with us. Despite these safeguards and our additional efforts to secure your

unauthorized third-parties will not be able to defeat our security, and improperly collect,
access, steal, or modify your personal information.

Each time you use our website the current version of this Policy will apply. This Policy may
be amended from time to time for any reason, and we will post a new Policy on this page
