Collectively, the Website and Apps will be referred to in this Privacy Policy as “Services.”
This Privacy Policy also applies to the use of the Services and the information provided by and obtained from users of these Services. We maintain a separate policy in connection with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (“HIPAA”) .

Personal Information We Collect and Use
We may collect two types of information: (1) personally identifiable information that you voluntarily provide to us when you access certain features of the Services as noted below in this Privacy Policy; and (2) usage information that is collected automatically as you access certain services through tracking mechanisms.
Voluntary Information That You Provide on our Websites
We collect personally identifiable information that you voluntarily and knowingly enter into data fields on our Website. One example is through a registration process or any type of sign-in that we may choose to use, including, but not limited to, your name, postal address, email address, home or work telephone number. Other features of our Website may ask for other personally identifiable information necessary for the proper functionality of such features. If you decline to provide certain information while using our Website, you may not be able to use or participate in some or all of its features offered. Additionally, we may retain email and other communications that you send us in order to process your inquiries or requests, send you information and improve our Services. Th same applies for any mobile versions of our site. We collect personally identifiable information that you enter into data fields on our Website and mobile Apps. If you decline to provide certain information while using our application, you may not be able to use or participate in some or all of its features.
Information Automatically Collected on our Website
When you access our Website, we may collect certain generalized information without you providing such information. This information may include, for example, your internet browser type, your computer operating system and your Internet Protocol (IP) address. This information may be collected using various technologies including cookies.
This information may include the type of mobile device and mobile operating system you are using. Certain Apps we may employ may also use location services to provide location-based features. If you enable location services on your device and grant permission for such Apps to access this feature, we may collect your location via GPS in order to provide you with such features.
Information Collected Using Web Logs, Cookies, IP Addresses and Third-Party Websites
We have the right, should we chose, to maintain standard Web logs that record and store data about Website users. The web server automatically collects the IP address of the computers that access our site. The IP address is a number that is assigned to a computer when it accesses the Internet. An IP address is not truly personally identifiable information because many different individuals can access the Internet via the same computer. The Website may also collect the type of operating system (e.g., Windows, macOS or Linux) and web browser (e.g., Internet Explorer, Firefox, Google Chrome, Apple Safari and Opera) you use when accessing our Website.
Features of many third-party websites may collect your IP address and which page you are visiting on our site and may set a cookie to enable the Features to function properly. Social Media features may be hosted by a third party.
Cookies
We collect information about visitors to our Website and mobile applications using “Internet cookies.” Internet cookies are unique identifiers placed on the hard drive of each computer used to access our Website to obtain statistical data about our users’ browsing actions and patterns, such as how many users visit our Website, what web pages they visit and the website from which they enter our site. This information does not identify you or contain any of your health information. The data is collected on an aggregate, anonymous basis, which means that no personally identifiable information is directly associated with the data. We use session cookies to keep you signed on while you navigate our Website and to track your navigation through our site to help us understand how people use our site. Session cookies expire after you end your session on our Website and close your browser. We also use persistent cookies, which remain on your hard drive after you exit our Website. Persistent cookies allow us to recognize a repeat visitor and may offer our Website visitors a set of services or information requested in a previous visit.
Web Beacons and Tracking Technologies
We may also use “Web beacons” on our Website. Web beacons are tiny images that are placed on a web page or email that, when used in connection with persistent cookies, can tell us if you have visited a particular area on our Website. We use Web beacons to collect non-personal information about your response to our Website and email communications and for other purposes. For example, if you have given us permission to email you, we may send you an email with a Web beacon recommending that you visit a particular feature of our Website. If you do visit that feature, the Web beacon will report that you responded to our email communication.
Pursuant to applicable laws, rules and regulations, we may periodically email or text you regarding products or services that we think may be of interest to you. You may also subscribe to online publications/blogs we may provide from time to time. We may use a third-party vendor to help us manage our email, subscription and/or text messaging communications. While we supply these vendors with email addresses or phone numbers of those individuals we want to contact, we do not permit them to use your email address or phone number for any purpose other than to communicate with you on our behalf. When you click on a link to our Website in an email or other communication from us, you may be temporarily redirected through one of the vendor’s servers, which will register for us that you have clicked on that link. We will not share, sell, rent, swap or authorize any third party to use your email address or phone numbers for commercial purposes without your permission. You can choose not to receive messages in the future by following the “unsubscribe” instructions located near the bottom of the email.
If you send us comments or questions by email, they may be shared with the our staff in an unrestricted manner, and by using this portal, you agree to this means of communication and sharing.
