Personalization of Content

We collect information about visitors to our site using "cookies." (You can read more about cookies at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_cookies). We use session cookies to track a visitor's path through our site during a visit, to help us understand how people use our site. We do NOT use persistent cookies to recognize a repeat visitor and offer the visitor a set of services or information requested in a previous visit.

Personally Identifiable Information

We do not collect any unique personally identifiable information about you such as your name, email address or any other contact information, except when you specifically and knowingly provide such information at the time of registration or otherwise. The personal information that you submit is shared only with those people in our organization who need this information to respond to your question or request. Information submitted through our online forms may be collected to ensure technical functionality. It will also be utilized to address any inappropriate use of our Web sites. We do not save personal information to use for other purposes, nor do we provide it to any other organization.

We do not share, rent or sell information concerning you to third parties , except that we may share personally identifiable information with third parties only when we have a good-faith belief that such action is reasonably necessary to: (a) satisfy any applicable law, regulation, court order, legal process or enforceable government request, or (b) ensure compliance with applicable terms of service or agreements including investigation of any potential violations, or (c) to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person.

Privacy of e-mail lists

SafeMed may in the future maintain e-mail lists to keep e-mail subscribers informed about recent news and the latest developments in health. Individuals who provide optional information may also receive materials by mail or fax and or be contacted by telephone. We do not share the e-mail addresses with anyone outside of our staff or its authorized agents. We configure our e-mail software to refuse to divulge the email addresses of our list subscribers to anyone but authorized SafeMed staff and agents. If you do not want to be contacted by Safe-Med, you can choose to 'opt out' of future communications, and we will endeavor to respect your wishes.

Surveys

We occasionally survey visitors to our site. The information from these surveys is used in aggregate form to help us understand the needs of our visitors so that we can improve our site. We generally do not ask for information in surveys that would personally identify you. If we do request contact information for follow-up, you may decline to provide it. If survey respondents provide personal information (such as an e-mail address) in a survey, it is shared only with those people who need to see it to respond to the question or request.

IP Addresses

The Web server automatically collects the IP (which stands for Internet Protocol) address of the computers that access our site. An IP address is a number that is assigned to your computer when you access the Internet. It is not truly personally identifiable information because many different individuals can access the Internet via the same computer. We use this information in aggregate form to understand how our site is being used and how we can better serve visitors.

Security

We have security measures in place in our physical facilities to protect our site from the loss or misuse of information that we have collected. Our servers are protected by firewalls and are physically located in secure data facilities to further increase security. While no computer is 100% safe from outside attacks, we believe that the steps we have taken to protect your personal information drastically reduce the likelihood of security problems to a level appropriate to the type of information involved.
