This Privacy Policy applies to all users of the Site. Please read the following to learn what information we collect from you (“you” or “User”) and how we use that information. This Privacy Policy is only applicable to the website indicated here, and not to any other websites that you may be able to access from the Site, each of which may have data collection, storage, and use practices and policies that differ materially from this Privacy Policy.

2. What Information is Collected.

(a) Information You Provide to Us: We collect any information that you submit or enter on our Site, or that you provide to us in any other way.

1. Personally Identifiable Information. We do not require you to provide Personally Identifiable Information in order to have access to general information available on our Site. Personally Identifiable Information is information that identifies a specific user. When you engage in certain activities on our Site, or through one of our network providers or vendors that may be linked through our Site, such as requesting an appointment through one of our network providers, requesting our E-newsletter, creating an account, signing in to your account, filling out patient forms, paying for services, filling out a survey, sending us or our partners feedback, requesting information about our services, or applying for employment, you may be asked to provide Personally Identifiable Information, including but not limited to your first and last name, mailing address (including zip code), email address, telephone number, date of birth, log in and passwords, credit card or Paypal account information, or related information. Depending on the activity, some of the information we ask you to provide is mandatory while other information may be voluntary. If you do not provide the mandatory information for a particular activity that requires it, you will not be permitted to engage in that activity.
2. Account Information. In order to provide you with certain services through the Site or one of the websites linked through our Site, you may be required to create an Account (“Account”) and provide us with information such as your name, address, email address, telephone number, credit card or Paypal account information for payment services, log-in and a password that you will use for your Account, and other specified information. It is your responsibility to keep your password confidential. If you are sharing a computer with anyone, you should always log-out before leaving the Site to protect access to your information from subsequent users.
3. Purchases. Our Site may provide links to third-party service providers to process transactions on our behalf or on behalf of our network providers. Any third-party service providers will have their own privacy policies, which you may review on their websites.
4. Events. We may provide you, via the Site, with the opportunity to contact us, post information about you and/or your experiences with us, receive a newsletter, or participate in promotional or other programs (collectively, “Events”). In order to participate in any of these Events, you will be required to provide certain Personally Identifiable Information which may include your name, company, job title, address, email address, and phone number so that we may communicate with you.

(b) Automatic Information: When you visit a website, you automatically disclose certain information, such as your Internet Protocol (IP) address and the time of your visit. Like many other websites, the Site may make use of log files. The information inside the log files includes the IP address from which you access the Site, the type of browser and operating system you use to access the Site, the date and time you access the Site, the pages you visit, and the addresses of pages from where you followed a link to the Site. We may use such information to analyze trends, administer the Site, and track user’s movement around the Site. Such information is not linked to any Personally Identifiable Information, with the exception of the IP address which might be used for fraud prevention purposes or to identify spamming attempts.

(c) “Cookies”: To facilitate and customize your experience with the Site, we may store “cookies” on your computer and may use other tracking technologies which may collect information about Site activity. A cookie is a small text file that is stored on a user’s computer for record-keeping purposes which contains information about that user. For example, when you sign in to your account, cookies will be used to save your username and/or password so the next time you visit your Account from the same computer, we will “remember” your username and/or password to make your experience faster and simpler. We use cookies and other browser analytics tools to save you time while using the Site, remind us who you are, and track and target your interests in order to provide a personalized experience. Most browsers are set up to accept cookies, but you can change your settings to have your browser notify you when you receive a new cookie or to refuse to accept cookies. If you block or delete these cookies, some of the Site’s features may be unavailable to you.

3. How and When the Information Collected is Used. The information we collect is used for administering our business activities. Occasionally, we may use the information to notify you about changes to our website, new services, or special offers. We may transfer your Personally Identifiable Information within USHP, its affiliates and its network providers, but only to provide or improve the Site or services provided to you. Please note that such sharing may involve the collection use, storage, or disclosure of Personally Identifiable Information outside the United States of America.

5. If you disclose Personally Identifiable Information through a social media site such as Facebook, Linked In or Twitter, to which our Site may be linked, the information may become public and accessible to all or a part of that social community, so it is important for you to exercise discretion when deciding to reveal Personally Identifiable Information in these public areas.

We take appropriate security measures to help safeguard the information you share with us from unauthorized access and disclosure. We also use firewalls to help prevent unauthorized access to your personal information. In addition, our business practices are reviewed periodically for compliance with policies and procedures governing the security and confidentiality of our information. Our business practices limit employee access to confidential information, and limit the use and disclosure of such information to authorized persons.

We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the Personally Identifiable Information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. However, no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic transmission or storage, is 100% secure.
