Privacy Statement
Your privacy is very important to us. Please contact us at support@p4healthcare.com if you have any questions or comments about privacy, or how any information you send us may be used. This site has created this Privacy Statement to demonstrate our commitment to protecting your privacy. The following text discloses our information-gathering practices with respect to this site's My Health Center and Health Tools users. This text explains how your personal information is used, protected and, in certain limited instances that do not violate your privacy, disseminated.
Type of Information Gathered
This site's registration form requires users to give us contact information (name and e-mail address), personal health information (gender, date of birth, and additional health information), and demographic information (ZIP or postal code). Users may elect to store additional health information on our Site. Storing additional health information on the Site gives the user access to his own personalized information, Health Tracking and Health Records.
How the Information is Used
P4, LLC pledges to protect the privacy of all of our registered users.
We use contact information from the registration form for internal purposes, to send the user news, information about new site features, services or updates, information about our company, and promotional material or offers from our corporate partners. You will be given the opportunity to decline these services at the point of registration, and you may opt-out of receiving future mailings (see the Choice/Opt-Out section following).
Demographic and personal health information is used to customize the visitor's experience on this site, showing them content we believe would be of interest to the user, and displaying the content according to the user's preferences. Your health information is password-protected to prevent access by others.
P4, LLC will not sell or forward to third parties any individually identifiable personal information, e.g., your e-mail address, name, etc., that you supply during the registration process unless you have specifically opted to provide such information to specified third parties or allow third parties access to it. P4, LLC may, however, provide your personal health information and that of other registered users in aggregate form to third parties, but never in such a way that it violates your privacy. This means we will never provide anyone's individual health records to any third party without express consent, although we may provide advertisers with information about the prevalence of certain health conditions in the overall group of this site's subscribers, and similar aggregate information.
Though we make every effort to preserve user privacy, we may need to disclose personal information when required by law wherein we have a good-faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with a current judicial proceeding, a court order or legal process served on our P4, LLC.
All personal, identifiable information is retained by P4, LLC for 5 years from the date of the last activity, unless a user requests that the information be deleted. If you would like your information deleted, please provide us with your registered username and email address and contact P4, LLC at: support@p4healthcare.com, and request that your information be deleted.
