Privacy Policy
Overview
MedAllies, Inc. and its affiliates (collectively, “MedAllies,” “we” or “us”) are serious about protecting your privacy. We understand your concerns with regard to how information about and from you is used and shared, and we appreciate your trust that we will do so carefully and sensibly. This notice (this “Privacy Policy”) describes what information we collect about and from you, how we collect it, how we use it, with whom we may share it, and what choices you have regarding it. This Privacy Policy is incorporated into and is a part of the Terms of Use of the MedAllies site (www.medallies.com, or any replacement site, the “Site”). In this Privacy Policy, “you” refers to an individual accessing the Site, regardless of the particular features, materials, information, applications, or services made available on the Site that you choose to browse, use or take advantage of. To the extent applicable, “you” also includes the medical practice or other legal entity (your “Group”), if any, on whose behalf you are accessing the Site.
We encourage you to become familiar with the terms and conditions of both this Privacy Policy and the Terms of Use. By accessing and using the Site, you agree that you have read and understand this Privacy Policy and that you accept and consent to the privacy practices (and any uses and disclosures of information about you or your Group, or your Group’s patients) that are described in this Privacy Policy.
What information do we collect?
We may collect certain identifying information from or about you or your Group, or your Group’s patients, in connection with your use of or submissions to the Site, including but not limited to name, street address, telephone number, E-mail address, patient information, and information regarding your business (together, the “Collected Information”).
In addition, we may retain the content of, and metadata regarding, any correspondence you may have with us or our representatives, regardless of the mode of communication by which such correspondence was made. This information helps us to improve the Site and the online media, content, materials, applications, and services that we feature or describe on the Site, and to more effectively and efficiently serve you.
As with many other Web sites, the Web servers used to operate the Site may collect certain data pertaining to you or your Group, or your Group’s patients, and the equipment and communications method that you use to access the Internet and the Site. For security reasons and to confirm the integrity of our data, MedAllies may combine components of this data with other sources of information which may identify you or your Group, or your Group’s patients. Unless otherwise described in this Privacy Policy or our Terms of Use, such identifying information will be used solely for our internal business purposes. In addition, the information we collect may reveal such things as the Internet protocol (“IP”) address assigned to your computer, specific pages that you accessed on the Site, or immediately prior to visiting the Site, and the length of time you spent at the Site. The purposes for which this information is collected and used include facilitating Site operation and system administration, generating aggregate, non-identifiable statistical information, monitoring and analyzing Site traffic and usage patterns, and improving the content and content delivery with regard to the Site and the online media, content, materials, applications, and services that we describe or make available on the Site.
Although, like many other Web sites, our site may use “cookies” to help us recognize you on subsequent visits to the Site, we do not currently use cookies, or other tracking mechanisms, to collect personal or individually identifiable information.
How do we use the information that we collect?
In addition to the uses mentioned or described above, or otherwise described in our Terms of Use, we may use the information that we collect from or about you or your Group, or your Group’s patients, to analyze and improve the content, features, applications and services that we make available on the Site, to notify you of changes made to the Site or new opportunities made available on or through the Site, to send you promotional materials that you request from us, for any legitimate purpose to support the improvement of patient care, and for other legitimate and lawful business purposes. If you contact us for support or assistance, we may use information that you provide or that we collect about or from you or your system for purposes such as verifying whether your system meets the minimum requirements needed to use the Site and our various services.
With whom do we share information that we collect?
In addition to the uses mentioned or described above, or otherwise described in our Terms of Use, in the course of conducting our business, we may transfer Collected Information, whether solicited or unsolicited, between our offices, catalog and add such Collected Information to our database, and transmit such Collected Information to our business partners, affiliates and contractors. Please rest assured that any Collected Information that we obtain will be reported outside our organization only in accordance with patient confidentiality obligations and applicable law.
Moreover, we utilize a number of trusted partners in delivering the online media, content, applications, materials, and services available on or through the Site to you. To the extent necessary for purposes of communicating with you or fulfilling your requests for our products or services, or your subscriptions to such media, content, applications, and materials, or to remediate service problems that may arise, we may share information about you or your Group, or your Group’s patients, with these partners. We may also produce reports on Site traffic or usage patterns and share these reports with our partners and others, but the information contained in these reports is anonymous and does not allow identification of any specific individual.
We may disclose information about you or your Group, or your Group’s patients, if we become subject to a subpoena or court order, or if we are otherwise legally required to disclose information. We may also use and disclose information about you or your Group, or your Group’s patients, to establish or exercise our legal rights, to enforce the Terms of Use, to assert and defend against legal claims, or if we believe such disclosure is necessary to investigate, prevent, or take other action regarding actual or suspected illegal or fraudulent activities or potential threats to the physical safety or well-being of any person.
As MedAllies continues to grow and develop its business, it is possible that its corporate structure might change or that it might merge or otherwise combine with, or that it or portions of its business might be acquired by, another company. In any such transactions, subscriber information generally is, will most probably be, and should be expected to be, one of the transferred business assets.
What choices do you have?
When corresponding with MedAllies or our representatives, or when making a request for information or otherwise interacting with MedAllies or others through the Site, you choose what information to supply, what questions to pose and comments to make, whether you wish to receive further information, and by what method of communication such information should be delivered. Please take care to share only such information as is needed or that you believe is appropriate.
How do we protect information collected?
MedAllies takes commercially reasonable measures to secure and protect information transmitted via or stored on the Site and transmitted to and from the Site. Nevertheless, no security system is impenetrable. We cannot and do not guarantee that information that users of the Site may happen to transmit or otherwise supply is or will be totally secure; nor can we or do we guarantee that any communications conducted on or through the Site are or will be totally secure. You agree to immediately notify us of any breach of Site security, this Privacy Policy or the Terms of Use of which you become aware.
Linked sites
For your convenience, some hyperlinks may be posted on the Site that link to other Web sites not under our control. We are not responsible for, and this Privacy Policy does not apply to, the privacy practices of those sites or of any companies that we do not own or control. We encourage you to seek out and read the privacy policy of each Web site that you visit. In addition, should you happen to initiate a transaction on a Web site that our Site links to, even if you reached that site through our Site, the information that you submit to complete that transaction becomes subject to the privacy practices of the operator of that linked site. You should read that site’s privacy policies to understand how personal information that is collected by or from you is used and protected.
Changes to privacy policy
From time to time, we may change our privacy practices, and this Privacy Policy, because of changes in relevant and applicable legal or regulatory requirements, our business practices, or in our attempts to better serve your needs and those of our other users. Notice of such changes to our privacy practices will be given in the manner described in the Terms of Use and a revised Privacy Policy will be posted on the Site.
Existing agreement
If you, your Group, or any organization or entity with which you are associated, has entered into an agreement or agreements with MedAllies (any such agreement or agreements, collectively, the “Existing Agreement”), none of the terms of this Privacy Policy shall be deemed to alter or restrict in any way any rights or obligations of the parties contained in the Existing Agreement, including but not limited to any rights or obligations with respect to the protection of protected health information; moreover, to the extent any of the terms of this Privacy Policy conflict with any terms of the Existing Agreement, the terms of the Existing Agreement shall be deemed to supersede the conflicting terms contained herein.
