This information is used to provide the products and services that you have ordered or requested, to process and ship orders, to send order and shipping confirmations and to provide customer service.

For example, Medicinal Foods collects your IP address, browser information and reference site domain name every time you visit this Web Site. We also collect information regarding customer traffic patterns and site usage. This information is used to analyze and improve this Web Site and to provide our customers with a fulfilling shopping experience.
Also, like many Web Sites, we use cookies, which are files stored on your computer’s hard drive by your browser. A cookie may contain information, such as a unique user ID that Web sites use to track the pages of the sites you’ve visited. We use cookies but do not store personally identifiable information in the cookie. Cookies help us to identify account holders and to optimize their shopping experience. Cookies also allow us to hold selections in a shopping cart when a user leaves this Web Site without checking out. Cookies are not used on this Web Site to store your account information; this information is stored securely on this Web Site’s server. When you log in at this Web Site with your username and password, we will assign you a secure session id. The server then passes your information to you through this secure session id.

We use the combined information to enhance and personalize your shopping experience with us, and to communicate with you in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
