Howell Nutraceutical dba Radiant Wonder was founded in 1998 to provide practical and responsible information about the safe individual use of the Chinese herbs used in normal everyday life by individuals in the Orient. Radiant Wonder also chose to provide certain practice commonly used in the Orient to maintain good health. These practices include food therapy, certain exercises, and certain lifestyle advice. In the Orient everyone is brought up with this knowledge and it is of great benefit to individual and family health. Our goal is to provide our customers with a user friendly Western adaptation of this knowledge. At this point there are two venues through which we offer this knowledge: information and education through this website; and a personalized, at-home program designed to benefit anyone who choses to participate (Radiant Wonder Healthy Living Programs). Radiant Wonder Healthy Living Programs are health programs designed between you and a trained herbalist. Amanda Bolgiano Howell is in the process of acquiring advanced degrees in Traditional Chinese Herbalism (TCM). Russell Howell has a background in Chemistry. Both of them have been studying and working with this knowledge for over 30 years. Sometime in 2010 the plan is to also provide in-person healthcare and herbal advice with a TCM clinic. At that time the Privacy Policy will be updated to reflect these changes.
We honor and protect your privacy. If you visit the Website or participate in the Healthy Living Program, we will protect your privacy to the fullest extent of the law. We will not disclose any such information to any third party — not even your name and address — for any purpose other than the fulfillment of orders you have placed for our products and services; this means we never sell, rent, or otherwise disclose your personal information to third-party marketers. We will restrict our employees’ access to such information on a need-to-know basis, and require that each of them sign a firm, written confidentiality agreement.

Purchasing from Radiant Wonder: When you purchase products and services from us, we collect your name, mailing and billing addresses, phone number, and email address (“Personal Data”), and we endeavor to associate all of your future purchases with the Personal Data.
We do not collect your credit or debit card information. When you place an order either on the phone or online, your number is entered on an encrypted page which is safe from hackers. As the transaction is completed the credit card number is not captured. All we will have in our record is the last four digits of the card and the amount of the transaction. We do keep a history of your purchases with us, regardless of your method of payment. This helps facilitate our processing of your orders and allows us to better assist you when you call us or email us in the future. In addition, we may send you e-mails (1) confirming your orders, (2) providing instructions or recommendations to help you get the most out of your purchases, (3) general information about discounts and current news. We always give you the opportunity to opt out of receiving such materials by unsubscribing at the bottom of each e-mail .
Further, when you return previously purchased merchandise or request a refund, you may be asked to give your name, address, and phone number. We collect this information to help prevent fraud and to ensure your account is properly credited.

Security of Your Personal Data: We are committed to protecting the security of your Personal Data. We use a variety of industry-standard security technologies and procedures to help protect your Personal Data from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure.

We store Personal Data behind a computer firewall, a barrier designed to prevent outsiders from accessing our servers. We require you to enter a password to access your account information. In addition, we protect your Personal Data from unauthorized physical access by storing your Personal Data in a controlled facility. Except as provided elsewhere in this Privacy Statement, we limit access to Personal Data in electronic databases to those persons (including employees) who have a business need for such access.
Even though we take significant steps to ensure that your Personal Data is not intercepted, accessed, used or disclosed by unauthorized persons, you should know that we cannot eliminate all security risks associated with Personal Data.
