Effective Date: July 21, 2007
Thank you for visiting a website owned or controlled by [Ideosphere], LLC, an [Illinois] Limited Liability Company, doing business as DrViewer.com (collectively “we,” “us,” “DrViewer” or “[Ideosphere]”). Your privacy is important to us. To better protect your privacy, we provide this Privacy Policy (“Policy”) explaining our online information practices and the choices you can make about the collection and use of your personal information that you submit on the website on which this Policy is posted.
INFORMATION WE COLLECT
Our Internet website provides users with an easy-to-use online tool for scheduling doctor and dentist appointments. Only persons who register with us by providing us with the requested personally identifiable information will be able to enjoy the benefits of our website. The types of personally identifiable information that may be collected at the registration pages include: name, email address, telephone number, postal code, and insurance carrier. We also collect the e-mail addresses of those who communicate with us via e-mail, aggregate information on what pages users access or visit, and information volunteered by the user (such as survey information and/or site registrations). During registration, we may also collect certain non-personally identifiable information when you visit our website pages such as the type of browser you are using (e.g., Netscape, Internet Explorer), the type of operating system you are using (e.g., Windows 2000 or Mac OS), and the domain name of your Internet service provider (e.g., America Online, Earthlink).
USES OF INFORMATION
The information we collect is used to improve the content of our website and the quality of our service. We use the information to provide our products and service, identify and authenticate identification, improve services, contact members, research, and marketing. We also use collected information to facilitate the function of the website. For example, we use third party vendors and hosting partners to provide the necessary hardware, software, networking, and related technology required to run the website.
SHARING OF INFORMATION
We will not knowingly share information provided by you with anyone except as herein stated or required or permitted by applicable law. We do not sell, rent or distribute our names or membership lists unless otherwise disclosed to you. However, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be one hundred percent secure. Accordingly, you should note that while it is our intent to hold private the information you transmit via our website(s) or by way of an Internet electronic mail system or service, we cannot promise or ensure that such information will remain confidential or secure.
We may disclose personally identifiable information in response to legal process, for example, in response to a court order or a subpoena. We also may disclose such information in response to a law enforcement agency's request or where we believe it is necessary to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person, violations of our terms of service, or as otherwise required by law. In addition, we may transfer information about you if we are acquired by or merged with another company.
COLLECTION OF INFORMATION BY THIRD PARTIES
The DrViewer website may contain links or references to other sites that are not owned or controlled by us. In addition, other Internet sites may link to this website without our knowledge or permission. Because neither we nor our affiliates have any control over such linked sites, we assume no obligation to review, and are not responsible for the availability or content of, any off-site pages or any other sites linked to this website. Your linking to off-site pages or other sites is at your own risk. We encourage you to be aware when you leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each and every website that collects personally identifiable information.
COOKIES AND OTHER TECHNICAL INFORMATION
We may send "cookies" to your computer primarily to enhance your online experience. "cookies" are files that can identify you as a unique customer and store your personal preferences as well as technical information (including click through and click stream data). Cookies can either be permanent (i.e., they remain on your computer until you delete them) or temporary (i.e., they last only until you close your browser). We do not use permanent cookies. We may also use tracking systems such as "Web beacons," which monitor your use of our website. Tracking systems (Web beacons or Web bugs) are small strings of code that provide a method for delivering a graphic image on a Web page for the purpose of transferring data, such as the IP (Internet Protocol) address of the computer that downloaded the page on which the Web beacon appears, the URL (Uniform Resource Locator) of the page on which the Web beacon appears, the time the page containing the Web beacon was viewed, the types of browser that fetched the Web beacon and the identification number of any cookie on the computer previously placed by that server. When corresponding with you via HTML capable e-mail, Web beacons let us know whether you received and opened our e-mail.
On their own, cookies or Web beacons do not contain or reveal any personally identifiable information. However, if you choose to furnish one of our website with personally identifiable information, this information can be linked to the data stored in the cookies/Web beacons.
Your ongoing use of our website constitutes your acceptance of this Privacy Policy, and you specifically agree to our described use of cookies and Web beacons. You may adjust your browser to reject cookies from us or from any other site. Additionally, by setting your Web browser to display HTML e-mails as text only, you may be able to prevent the use of some Web beacons. Please consult the "Help" section of your browser for more information. However, certain areas of our website can only be accessed in conjunction with cookies or similar devices and you should be aware that disabling cookies or similar devices might prevent you from accessing some of our content.
NOTIFICATION OF CHANGES TO PRIVACY POLICY
This Privacy Policy is effective as of the expressed "Effective Date" written above and may be updated and modified from time to time by us in our sole discretion. By updating this Privacy Policy, we will be notifying you of any material changes, updates or modifications to this Privacy Policy. Accordingly, we strongly encourage you to periodically review this Privacy Policy and our Website in order to keep apprised of our current privacy practices. If you do not agree to any provision of this Privacy Policy, or any update or modification thereto, please do not use our website.
