Third Party Cookies 

Google Ad Words
We track the performance of our google advertising campaigns using google adwords cookies.

How does Google use cookies in conversion tracking?
The cookie that Google adds to a user's computer when he/she clicks on an ad expires in 30 days. This measure, and the fact that Google uses separate servers for conversion tracking and search results, protects the user's privacy.

Users who don't wish to participate in tracking activities can easily not accept this cookie by setting their Internet browser user preferences. These users will simply not be included in your conversion tracking statistics.

How does Google handle personal data?
Google is firmly committed to the privacy of our advertisers and users. While Google does add a cookie to a user's computer when he/she clicks on an ad, this cookie expires in 30 days, and Google does not associate a user's search activity with his/her ad click history. Further, Google does not collect or track personally identifying information, and does not reveal individual information to third parties.

Users who do not wish to participate in tracking activities can easily disable Google's conversion tracking cookie in their Internet browser's user preferences settings. These users will not be included in your conversion tracking statistics.

Will my personal information be shared?
No. The information you provide will only be used by Google, and only in our efforts to serve you better. We will not share your personal information, unless required to resolve a charge dispute or by legal process.

How secure is my information?
We understand that making an advertising purchase online involves a great deal of trust on your part. We take this trust very seriously, and make it our highest priority to ensure the security and confidentiality of the information you provide.

Is conversion tracking secure?
Yes. Google's security standards are stringent; we use data encryption and secure servers, and do not collect or store personal information. In addition, only those pages containing the Google conversion code are tracked.

Yahoo Advertising Solutions
We track the performance of our yahoo advertising campaigns using yahoo advertising solutions cookies.

What is the Conversion Counter?
Conversion Counter is the Yahoo! Search Marketing conversion tracking tool. Conversion Counter tracks the number of conversions generated by Yahoo! listings.

How does the Conversion Counter work?
When an Internet user clicks on one of our listings and arrives at your Web site, Conversion Counter places a "cookie" on that visitor's browser. When the visitor reaches our transaction completion page, Conversion Counter registers a conversion and ties it to the visitor's previous search. The cookie used by Conversion Counter is active for 30 days.

Is personal information collected or shared?
No personal information is collected. We do not share any information collected by your clicks from an advertisement aside from a unique id created when clicking the original advertisement. This is a random tracking number and does not contain any personal information nor can it be linked to personal information.

Log Files 
As is true of most Web sites, we gather certain information automatically and store it in log files. This information includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, operating system, date/time stamp, and clickstream data.

We use this information, which does not identify individual users, to analyze trends, to administer the site, to track users’ movements around the site and to gather demographic information about our user base as a whole.

We use a third party tracking service that uses cookies, log files, and clear gifs to help us track non-personally identifiable information about our visitors. The information collected includes the following: date, time, ip address of the client that accessed our web server, the page name the visitor was trying to open, the number of bytes sent by the server, the number of bytes received by the server, the duration of time that the action consumed, the browser used, the content of the cookie sent or received, if any, and the previous site visited by the user if the site linked to a1nutrition.com. This information is used to help us better serve you by allowing us to see trends in what pages are being accessed more than others, what browsers to optimize our site for, what time of day does our server have to handle more traffic than other times, and for marketing purposes so we may see what sites are sending us more traffic than others.

We are using Urchin web analytics software which utilizes Urchin Tracking Module (UTM) the technology that allows us to analyze our advertisement from other sites and affiliates. To provide the most accurate measurements of unique web site visitors we use UTM Sensor - a small amount of JavaScript code that accomplishes unique visitor identification functions. We also place clear gifs on our site that are the part of UTM. These images do not collect any information, or personally identifiable information. UTM Sensor uniquely identifies each visitor by using client-side "1st party" cookies to keep track of first time and returning visitors. This cookie identifier is a communication tag only viewable to your web server in the same nature as session ids. It is not a third party cookie, it does not provide any information outside our system and it does not violate our strict privacy policy.
