Your browser software can be set to warn you of cookies or reject all cookies.

We may use cookies, web beacons, and other storage technologies to recognize you or to collect or receive information from your use of our website and elsewhere on the internet. We may aggregate the information collected through storage technologies with your information, and the information collected may be used to speed your use of our website, to provide measurement services, or to provide targeted advertisements on the basis of legitimate interests.

Tracking and/or Analytics Services. We may also contract with third-party advertising or analytics companies to track user behavior and analyze user activity, improve efficiency, create a better experience with our website, or to serve you online ads on other websites. These third parties may use cookies or similar technologies to collect information about your interactions with our website and interactions with other websites. These advertising companies may use the information gathered to deliver ads more tailored to your interests. We receive aggregate information from these third parties to understand our advertising effectiveness.

We use Google Analytics on this website to help us analyze the traffic on our website. We do not use Google Analytics to gather information that personally identifies you. The information generated by Google Analytics is transmitted to and stored by Google and subject to Google’s privacy policy. For more information on Google Analytics’ processing of personal information, please see http://www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/.

Information We May Receive from Third Parties. We also may collect information regarding how you interact with our website and other websites, such as content on social media platforms. For example, if you “like” a photo on one of our social media sites, we may collect information related to that interaction. In some cases, we may receive information about you from third parties that you directly provided to a third party.

We may use your information to contact you (for example, announcements or surveys); to communicate with you about our agency, including to follow up on requests or questions that you may submit; to track and analyze use of our website, including to prevent, detect, and investigate misuse, fraud, and illegal activities, and to track and evaluate activity on our website; for purposes including enhancing and maintaining our online presence or services; for recruiting and human resources administration purposes; and to otherwise run our business.

Additionally, we may share your information, including information collected through our website, under the following circumstances: with our authorized vendors and third-party service providers who perform certain services or functions on our behalf (for example, we may share your information with a hosting service provider who hosts the website); in connection with a merger or transfer of all or a portion of our website or business; in accordance with your consent or direction, as permitted by law; to respond to subpoenas, court orders, legal process, law enforcement requests, legal claims, or government inquiries; and to protect and defend our rights, interests, health, safety, and security, and those of our affiliates, patients, users, or the public.

We may also use aggregated or de-identified information to better understand our website and how to improve it. This non-identifiable information may be shared with third parties. For example, we use Google Analytics to process and analyze data we collect from your use of our website. Although we will not share your personally identifiable information with Google, you should review how Google collects and processes data through our use of Google Analytics by viewing Google’s privacy statement, which can be found at http://www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/.

Our website may contain links to third-party sites not owned or operated by us. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of any websites operated by third parties. Once you have left our website, we suggest you check the applicable privacy policy of the third-party website to determine how they will handle any information they collect from you.

We maintain industry-accepted physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to protect the Personal Information collected when you use our website. However, no data transmission over the Internet or data storage system is guaranteed to be 100% secure and, as a result, you transmit information to us at your own risk. We may keep your Personal Information for as long as needed or permitted in light of the purpose(s) for which it was obtained.

Some Internet browsers include the ability to transmit “Do Not Track” signals. Since uniform standards for “Do Not Track” signals have not yet been adopted, we do not process or respond to “Do Not Track” signals.

We do not knowingly collect or maintain personally identifiable information from persons under 18 years of age without verifiable parental consent, and no part of our website is directed at persons under 18. If you are under 18, please do not provide any personally identifying information during your visit to this website.

We are required to abide by the terms of our notice of privacy practices then currently in effect. As permitted by law, we reserve the right to change our privacy practices and to make those changes effective for all protected health information we maintain, including information created or received before the change. We may revise this Privacy Policy from time to time without notice as we add new features or as laws change that may affect our services.
