Natrol, which includes the Natrol family of brands, holds your privacy in highest
regard. This notice describes our current privacy policy with regard to information
we collect when you interact with Natrol.com (“Site”) or products and
services contained therein.
By visiting Natrol.com, you are accepting the practices described in this Privacy
Policy.

For personal information of employees, consumers, customers, investors, investigators,
government officials and all parties that Natrol receives from the European Economic
Area, Natrol has committed to handling such personal information in accordance with
the Safe Harbor Principles. Natrol’s Safe Harbor certification can be found

Personal Information
Personal Information means any information that may be used to identify an individual,
including, but not limited to, first and last name, home or other physical address,
telephone number, e-mail address, and credit card information.
In general, you can visit the Site without disclosing personal information. Registering
for a Natrol account or making a purchase online requires some personal information
for the transaction. We may also ask you for other optional information about your
demographics (e.g. gender, age), interests and preferences. Natrol will use and
store any such information that we collect from you to carry out your request and
for our own internal marketing purposes.
We will not give, sell, or rent your personal information, including email address,
or specific account activity to anyone for any reason without your prior consent
except as required by law, and when we believe that disclosure is necessary to protect
our rights, or to comply with a judicial proceeding, court order, or legal process
served on our Site.
Our Site is not intended for or designed to attract individuals under the age of
18. We do not collect personally identifiable information from any person we actually
know is an individual under the age of 18.
Aggregate Information
When you visit our website, we collect non-personal information about your visit.
An Internet Protocol (IP) address is a number that is automatically assigned to
your computer whenever you are surfing the web. We collect your IP address, browser
type, domain name, and we log the length of time of your visit and the number of
times you visit and purchase from us. We use this statistical information to gather
aggregate demographic information about our visitors. We use it to personalize the
information you see on our website and the emails sent out to opted-in customers.
Secure Ordering
Natrol uses Secured Sockets Layer (SSL) technology to ensure the privacy of your
personal information. When you make an online purchase, our advanced security technology
encrypts and scrambles your personal data, including your name, mailing address,
e-mail addresses and credit card number, before they are sent to us, making it virtually
impossible for anyone other than Natrol to read the data. To further protect your
information, we utilize state of the art back-end systems and restrict employee
access to your information. Unless specifically authorized by you, no outside party
is able to access or receive any of your personal information.

our privacy policy, we will change the "Last Updated" date at the top of this Privacy
Policy. We encourage you to check this page periodically for any changes. Your continued

those changes.
If Natrol changes how it uses a user's personally identifiable information, including
email addresses, the user will be notified by email and he or she may opt-out at
that time. However, if the user had elected to opt out of all communication with
the Site, then he or she will not be contacted, nor will the personally identifiable
information be used in this new manner.

that refer you to the Site. Although we do not share your Personal Information with
