PRIVACY POLICY
CareData respects the
privacy of its visitors and customers and understands the importance of privacy
to visitors to our web site. We collect and store information so that we can
efficiently provide information to our users and process your orders. This
privacy statement is designed to help you understand what information we gather
and what we do with the information.
-
Your Information. Personal identifying information, such as customer names, street or e-mail addresses, phone numbers, delivery locations, or any other
information which, when used by itself or with other data, might identify a
customer individually is only collected if a customer sends it to us voluntarily
as part of using our service. Personal identifying information also includes
personal health information (e.g., health history, including drug and treatment
histories, electronic patient records, whether in image or text form, and
medical insurance information). We may also use this information to offer you
the opportunity to receive notices regarding other CareData products or services
and to further personalize your experience on our site. Personal identifying
information is used only for our legitimate business interests, to establish
customer credit, fulfill contracts for services, billing functions, answer
patient questions, and to comply with applicable laws and regulations. At times
you may provide personal health information in order to purchase our products or
to obtain answers from experts (such as in connection with the CareData bulletin
boards, chat rooms and other interactive web pages). If we request personal
health information, we agree to maintain the confidentiality of this information
in accordance with applicable state and federal laws and regulations. You agree
to provide only the personal health information that is specifically asked by us
and you shall not submit such information in any other form, including e-mail or
through chat rooms, other than through our Secure Server (see Security,
below).
-
Disclosure. By giving CareData your personal identifying
information, you grant CareData, and its affiliates and subsidiaries the right
to use this information for reasonable business purposes and in a manner
consistent with the policies of CareData and applicable state and federal laws
and regulations. We do not sell, rent or disclose your personal identifying
information or medical information to any third party, except as described in
this section. We may contract with reputable vendors to assist us in processing
information or delivering the items that our customers order. These vendors are
restricted from using or selling the information for any purpose other than
helping us to provide the products and services. We may provide aggregate
statistics about our customers, sales, online traffic patterns and related
information to reputable third parties, but these statistics will not include
any personally identifying or health information. Finally, if disclosure of any
information is required by law or by an appropriate government authority, we
will comply accordingly.

define "children" as minors younger than 13). Therefore, CareData will not
knowingly collect or use any personal information from children or knowingly
allow children to register with us. Any information that is inadvertently
collected from children will be deleted promptly upon discovery.

Security.
CareData always uses industry-standard
encryption technologies when transferring and receiving consumer data exchanged
with our site. CareData has implemented appropriate security measures in our
physical facilities to protect against the loss, misuse or alteration of
information that we have collected from you at our site. Unfortunately,
however, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100%
secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information, we
cannot guarantee or warrant the security of any information you transmit to or
from our website, and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your
transmission, we will do our best to protect its security on our systems. In the
unlikely event of an interception OR UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS despite our efforts,
CareData shall not be responsible for such interception OR UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS,
or any DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES
(INCLUDING LOST PROFITS) SUFFERED BY A CUSTOMER OR USER, EVEN IF CareData HAS
PREVIOUSLY BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. CareData DOES NOT
WARRANT, EITHER EXPRESSLY OR IMPLIEDLY, THAT THE INFORMATION PROVIDED BY ANY
CUSTOMER SHALL BE FREE FROM INTERCEPTION OR UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS, AND DOES NOT
PROVIDE ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE. EACH CUSTOMER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR MAINTAINING THE CONFIDENTIALITY OF HIS
OR HER OWN LOGIN INFORMATION
