Protecting Personal and Protected Health Information

The security of our sites and services and the information they store, process and transmit is a top priority. To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the appropriate use of the information we collect, we deploy a wide range of technical, physical and administrative safeguards, including: Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption, firewalls, system alerts and other information system security technologies; housing health data in secure facilities that restrict physical and network access; and regular evaluation and enhancement of our information technology systems, facilities, and information collection, storage and processing practices. Under applicable law, we are required to apply reasonable and appropriate measures to safeguard the confidentiality, integrity and availability of individually identifiable health information (as such term is defined by HIPAA) residing on and processed by our sites and services.

We use third-party service providers to manage credit card and payment processing. These service providers are notpermitted to store, retain, or use billing Information except for the sole purpose of credit card and payment processingon our behalf. When you enter payment information we encrypt the transmission of that information using SSLtechnology and do not store it on our systems.

It is important to remember, however, that no system can guarantee 100% security at all times. Accordingly, wecannot guarantee the security of information stored on or transmitted to or from our services. We cannot assumeresponsibility or liability for unauthorized access to our servers and systems. When disclosing any personal orprotected health information, you should remain mindful of the fact that it is potentially accessible to the public and,consequently, can be collected and used by others without your consent. Accordingly, you should consider carefullyif you want to submit sensitive information that you would not want disclosed to the public and should recognize thatyour use of the Internet and our sites and services is solely at your risk.

Steps You Can Take

• Install malware detection programs that regularly scan your system and incoming traffic for malicious code such as computer viruses, worms, Trojan Horses and spyware. Because viruses and malware are continuously created and modified, regular malware protection software typically requires frequent updates.
• Use a firewall to prevent unauthorized access to your device.
• Because malware often targets vulnerabilities in existing operating systems, browsers, plug-ins and other programs, software vendors frequently update their products with security patches to guard against known or commonly exploited vulnerabilities. Vendors often try to alert their users and recommend immediate installation of these security patches.
• Use a strong password using a combination of letters and numbers that are not easily guessed. Do not share your password with others.
• If you use a shared device, always close all active programs and log out before leaving it unattended.
• Avoid using a public wireless network, if possible. If you do use a public network, use the most restrictive wireless network settings on your device.
• If you use file-sharing programs, be sure to restrict all other folders or directories to "no share".
• Be very cautious with any email requesting you to share personal information. On websites, look for the lock symbol on or near your browser's address bar which signifies a secure website before supplying personal information.
• When participating in one of our communities, blogs, forums, surveys or other open communication platforms, exercise care in selecting what information you share, particularly personal or health information.

If you engaged in our sites and services with that healthcare provider, any protected health information that you submitted with our sites and services or otherwise maintained by us or a subcontractor in connection with our sites and services will be returned to the healthcare provider or destroyed by us or such subcontractor.
