Recipes and Resources Pages - Community Activities
HMR has created the "Recipes and Resources Pages" to share information and the experiences of the many people who have participated in HMR Programs, used HMR Products, or in some other way have brought, or would like to bring, HMR's approach to weight management and healthy lifestyles into their lives. You may view the Recipes and Resources Pages and share the content on these pages without creating an Account. However, you will need an Account and a Community Use ID with your first name and the initial of your last name - you may also provide a picture - in order to engage in certain activities on the Recipes and Resources Pages, such as posting, amending and deleting comments from time to time, to also amending and deleting those comments from time to time, "liking" content, and contributing to or starting Forums (collectively, "Community Activities"). Currently, the Recipes and Resources Pages are not allowing new user submitted recipes, success stories or articles, but the pages do contain many of these items we have brought over from past websites sponsored by HMR. The focus of the Recipes and Resources Pages is on building a relationship among HMR-connected people and those who many be interested in HMR to further our mission (to improve the health of others). As part of building an HMR community, you will have the opportunity to submit ideas for, and user-generated content on, HMR sponsored Forums, etc. It is our hope that you will get support from the HMR content and from the content submitted by other users. Keep in mind that any content that you post will be considered non-confidential and non-proprietary, and that you are granting to HMR an irrevocable, perpetual, royalty-free, worldwide, transferable license to use, reproduce, modify, display disclose, distribute, publish, and make derivative works from such content for any purpose. User-submitted content will be subject to review. In some cases, HMR may make minor edits. HMR will remove any user-generated content that it feels is inappropriate or conflicts with the rights of those who own such material. In doing so, HMR will use its own judgment consistent with the spirit of the Sites. We know that the vast majority of users understand the importance of demonstrating respect for others as part of using the Sites. Although we review user-submitted content on a regular basis, in the end, it is largely up to you, our users, to decide what is appropriate. In getting to know many of our HMR participants over the years, we are confident that you will use good judgment when contributing your thoughts, ideas, and experiences to the Recipes and Resources Pages and to the many people you will reach. Below are some common-sense "community etiquette" points and other advice for submissions:

Please do not use the Website if you are located outside the United States, its territories and possessions, or if you are under 18 years of age. By using the Website or the HMR Mobile App, you are deemed to understand and unambiguously consent to the collection and processing of your Personal Information in the United States, with the awareness that the laws of the United States may not provide as much protection for Personal Information as the laws of certain other countries or territories.
INFORMATION WE COLLECT
When you use the Website or the HMR Mobile App, we collect certain information from you, including certain Personal Information. "Personal Information" as used in this Policy means any information that identifies, or is used by or on behalf of HMR to identify, an individual and is intended to include all categories of information identified in the definition of Personal Information under the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (CCPA).
The categories of Personal Information that HMR collects and uses are listed above in the Notice at Collection. Set forth below is additional information about the Personal Information collection process and why HMR collects your Personal Information in each case.
What are the sources from which HMR collects Personal Information?
HMR collects your Personal Information in two ways: You provide us with almost all of the Personal Information collects about you. The other way in which HMR collects and creates Personal Information about you is "passively" when you use the Sites and from your use of the Sites. Please read the following sections to learn more. IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU ARE NOT OBLIGATED TO PROVIDE HMR WITH ALL OF THE PERSONAL INFORMATION HMR POTENTIALLY COLLECTS FROM ITS USERS IN ORDER TO USE THE SITES - IN MANY CASES YOU WILL ONLY NEED TO PROVIDE PERSONAL INFORMATION THAT SUPPORTS A PARTICULAR USE OR USES OF THE SITES THAT YOU WISH TO MAKE.
Personal Information You Provide To Us and Key Uses By HMR To Support Your Use Of The Sites
We collect information that you provide to us in order for you to use certain features on the Website, or to use the HMR Mobile App, as follows:
Account Creation: When you register and open an HMR account ("Account"), we only require you to provide your first and last name, email address, and a password that you create. In addition, if you are participating through an employee, health care provider or other wellness-type program and are provided with a referral code and an ID for such participation, we will collect this information from you as part of your registration. We may also collect information that identifies you as "associated" with your local HMR Program as part of account creation or modification if you choose to register with a URL provided by the local HMR Program or otherwise request information about a local HMR Program as part of your account registration or update.
Using the Website without an Account: When you navigate and access the Website without opening an Account, you can take advantage of certain specific interactive uses, such as "guest" purchases of HMR Products or "clinic inquiries" to help you find a local HMR Program. You may also subscribe to emails from HMR, share material on the Recipes and Resources Pages, take advantage of the "Contact Us" feature, request information about starting an HMR Program or learn more about HMR. When using the Website without creating an Account you will be asked to provide Personal Information or business information if you are a business to allow HMR to perform the activity or provide the information you request, and you will be added to one or more HMR databases for future communications.
Purchase of HMR Products: When you order HMR meal replacement products ("HMR Products") through the Website, or through the HMR Mobile App, we ask you to provide certain information, including shipping information, credit and debit card or other payment information, and in the case of our "auto delivery" service, related information such as food preferences.
Tracking Weight Management Progress: If you choose to use the HMR Mobile App to track your weight management progress and related information, we will ask you to provide your telephone number, birth date, weight, height, gender, diet, exercise and weight-loss goals. This information may also be input by an HMR program coach after receiving it from you and used as described below.
Recipes and Resources: If you use the HMR "Recipes and Resources Pages" and wish to make comments on or "like" recipes, success stories, articles, and other posts, or contribute to Forums or start Forums you must first create an Account, after which you will be assigned a Community ID consisting of your first name and last name initial (you may also provide a picture which is optional). Keep in mind that your Community ID is visible to all viewers and you determine what Personal Information you share publicly with anyone who views these resources.
Survey Responses: If you choose to reply to a survey on the Website, we or our third party service providers may request Personal Information such as your email address. Such third party service providers are obligated by contract to use your Personal Information only for the purpose of performing services for us.
Phone Program: If you do participate in the HMR Healthy Solutions Program with phone coaching (the "Phone Program"), HMR will also collect additional Personal Information as described below in IMPORTANT DISCLOSURES REGARDING THE PHONE PROGRAM.
