Personal Health Information

When this information is combined with any information on your health or medical status, we refer to this information as “personal health information.” We often collect information on application use that has nothing to do with you as an individual, only as an anonymous user of the application. We call this information “aggregate information” and use it for purposes such as improving the usability, quality, and functionality of the application. We intend to use the personal information, personal health information, and aggregate information only for the purposes for which it was provided.

Some personal information and personal health information is needed to use this application to provide customized reports and information to help you manage your health, and we ask that you provide it with the knowledge that it will be used to enhance your experience. This information is kept confidential. We do offer special data collection programs that you can “opt-in” to use, including receiving emails on health topics or participating in new services.

Device Information

We collect device-specific information (such as your hardware model, operating system version, unique device identifiers, and mobile network information including phone number).

Location information

When you use provider and facility look-up services, we may collect and process information about your actual location. We use GPS to determine location and provide content based on your geographical location.

Unique application numbers

Certain services include a unique application number. This number and information about your installation (for example, the operating system type and application version number) may be sent to us when you install or uninstall that service or when that service periodically contacts our servers, such as for automatic updates.

Local storage

We may collect and store information (including personal information) locally on your device using mechanisms such as browser web storage (including HTML 5) and application data caches.

Who Collects the Data

Health Systems & Amenities, independently and through third party partners, collects information in different sections of this application. Health Systems collect most of the data via registration and for specific contact emails. Health Systems are interested in your information for the purposes of operating the application more efficiently, providing you with more efficient and reliable functionality, and for answering your questions and concerns.

Where Information Is Collected

We collect information about you at several places throughout the application. You will be informed on how this information is collected at that time. You will also have the ability to opt-in to information collection when you enter the application or use a service. Most information is collected in the following instances:

We may use your registration information to send you an email confirming your registration with our application, to respond to questions from you, or to notify you if there is a problem with any order for goods or services that you placed. We may also, from time to time, send emails, with your permission, on special promotions or newsletters we think may be of interest to you. Once you have opted in, we may send info to you. For example, if you opt in we may send information regarding your specific health condition.

How We Use Your Personal Information

We continually seek new ways to maintain your trust as a user and improve our offerings. To provide new and better services, we monitor user traffic patterns and try to analyze what our users like and do not like about our current offerings so we can design better services for you. We may also use certain information for testing purposes, application development and planning, and during the normal course of maintaining the application. When you use our application, you automatically allow us to collect this information related to these uses. In these cases, researchers, business analysts, system designers, and others may have access to the data we collect.

We do not intend to use or disclose any personal information or personal health information you provide on our application to an unrelated third party without your express permission, except as explained in this section.

You should know that there are circumstances when, in the ordinary course of business, we will share some information about you with a related third party:

As stated elsewhere, we may also share aggregate statistical information on our users, sales, traffic patterns and site usage with our business affiliates and sponsors. There is nothing in this information that could be used to identify or contact you.

We require vendors to provide specific services, such as data analysis, data storage, email processing, customer service, sweepstakes or special promotions. We require vendors to adhere to our confidentiality standards and do not permit a vendor to use our customer information for any other purpose. In many of these instances, you will be given the opportunity to opt-in to this collection of information and can opt-out at any time.

We may share registration data with business affiliates.

In certain limited circumstances, we may be legally compelled to release your personal information in response to a court order, subpoena, search warrant, law or regulation. In the event that we are compelled to disclose personal information and/or personal health information to a third party, we will notify you unless doing so would violate the law or court order. We also reserve the right to cooperate with law enforcement authorities in investigating and prosecuting users that violate our rules or engage in behavior that is harmful (or illegal) to other users.

Our Relationship with Third Parties

Linked and Affiliated Sites

We want you to be informed about the Third-Party vendors that appear or function as part of this application. To better serve our users, there are parts of our application that are operated by a Third Party (“Affiliated Sites”), as well as links from this site to other sites that are operated by Third Parties (“Linked Sites”). We ask that all such third-party organizations, either “Affiliated” or “Linked” sites, disclose their confidentiality practices and procedures and agree to abide by our privacy policy. We make diligent efforts to ensure that third-party vendors are aboveboard; however, we are separate organizations and as such we are not privy to the details of their operations and not responsible for their actions. We do not make any representations or warranties regarding the accuracy, integrity or quality of “Linked Sites.” Consequently, we will not be liable in any way for the Linked Sites, including, without limitation, for any loss or damage of any kind incurred as a result of your use of Linked Sites. You hereby waive any claim against a Health System with respect to the Linked Sites. You agree that you must evaluate and bear all risks associated with the use of the Linked Sites, including, without limitation, any reliance on the accuracy, completeness, or usefulness of the material contained in the Linked Sites. Below we provide you with the name of Affiliated Sites represented on our Site and a brief description of the Services they provide to us. We encourage you to read the disclosure statements of any such organization so that you are aware of any differences from their disclosure statements to our own.

Change, Update, & Remove Personal Information

You may change or update your personal information and/or personal health information at any time in your Profile.

You may remove previously provided personal and/or personal health information at any time by contacting us in writing using the address in our Contact Us link.

Users should be aware that it is not always technically possible to remove or delete the information you provide to us. We back-up our systems to protect information from inadvertent loss, and that means a copy of your personal information may exist in a non-erasable form that may be difficult or impossible for us to locate. Nevertheless, upon receiving your request we will try to remove or delete all personal information and/or personal health information stored in the active databases that we use for research and daily business activities. We will not intentionally disclose any personal information stored in a non-erasable format after receiving your request for removal, except as required by law.

Push Notifications

Our application offers you the ability to opt in to receive push notifications on your phone to inform you about certain events like when you are billed for services or when a test result becomes available. You do not have to opt in to receive these push notifications to use the application. If you do choose to opt in, push notifications may be visible on your mobile device screen even when the device is locked. It may be possible to prevent this by adjusting your device settings. If you choose to opt in to receive push notifications, you should carefully review your device settings to be sure it will display only what you want it to display.

Our Children’s Policy

We strive to comply with the Child Online Protection Act (COPA) and are committed to protecting the privacy of children. Although not designed for children, our application may feature information and services of interest to or for children under the Health System’s age limits. We require parental or legal guardian consent to collect personally identifiable information on any child under the Health System’s age limits in order to be in compliance with COPA, and will employ an age identification mechanism to prevent children under the Health System’s age limits from entering personally identifiable information on the application where personally identifiable information is collected. When consent is given and we collect personally identifiable information on children under the Health System’s age limits, we will not disclose this information to any third party. We may, however, use the information to create aggregate data that may be shared with third parties, but there is no way a child can be identified.

To obtain more information on a child’s use of this site, parents or guardians can contact us in writing or via email using the address in our Contact Us link.
