We do not knowingly collect or maintain personal information from any person under the age of majority. No parts of our websites, products or services are designed to attract anyone under the age of eighteen. INFORMATION COLLECTED AND HOW WE USE IT One of our primary goals in collecting personal information from you is to give you a meaningful and customized experience while using our websites, products and services and to allow us to develop new products and services that are relevant to you. Your personal information also allows us to provide specific services and features that most likely meet your needs, and to customize the webpage or service to make your online experience more rewarding. What We Collect Personal Information
In the course of using our websites, products or services, we may ask you to provide us with, or we may collect, certain personally identifiable information that can be used to contact or identify you and administer your use and enjoyment thereof (“Personal Information”). Personal Information may include your name, contact information (address, phone number, fax number, e-mail address), date of birth, and demographics. Further, to gain access to certain products or services, including registering for our website, we may also ask you to provide us with professional information and credentials about you, such as your degree, specialty, license number, medical or other graduate school and year of graduation in order to provide you with content that is tailored to your practice and interests. If you voluntarily provide us feedback, or contact us via e-mail, we will collect your name and e-mail address, as well as any other content included in the e-mail, in order to send you a reply. When you voluntarily participate in one of our surveys, or programs (as described in further detail below), we may collect additional information from you. Non-Identifiable Information
In addition to collecting Personal Information that you provide, we may also monitor the use of our website, services and/or products by collecting aggregate, anonymous, non-identifiable information (“Non-Identifiable Information”). Typically, Non-Identifiable Information tracks users' patterns throughout our websites and products, and it may include information such as your browser type, operating system, date/time stamp for your visit, IP address, domain name, referring URLs, statistics about the number of visitors to the site, the number of pages visited, and user response rates. Non-Identifiable Information enables us to provide a more enjoyable and personalized experience, as well as tracking errors. Certain Non-Identifiable Information would be considered a part of your Personal Information if it were combined with other identifiers (for example, combining your zip code with your street address) in a way that enables you to be identified. But the same pieces of information are considered Non-Identifiable Information when they are taken alone or combined only with other Non-Identifiable Information (for example, your viewing preferences). We may combine your Personal Information with Non-Identifiable Information and aggregate it with information collected from other users to attempt to provide you with a better experience, to improve our services and to analyze and understand how our websites and products are used. We may also use the combined information without aggregating it to serve you specifically, for instance, to deliver a product to you according to your preferences or restrictions, for advertising or advertising targeting purposes. Please note that under some laws, certain types of Non-Identifiable Information described above may be considered personally identifiable information, and in such cases, we will treat it as Personal Information. In addition to the foregoing, Personal Information may also be collected in the following forms: Device IDs. We may collect and store a unique device ID associated with your device (“Device ID”). We use your Device ID to track the number of unique users using our services and to enable you to interact with and use our services. We link your Device ID with the technical information accessed through your use of our websites, products, and services so that we may administer resets to your account or to delete information when you request that we do so or for other administrative purposes. Surveys and Promotions and Market Research Information. In using our website, products and/or services, you may also elect to participate in market research surveys or programs. By submitting answers to these surveys or programs, you are providing specific feedback to us and/or certain third parties (as described below). Participation in a survey or program is voluntary and you may decline participation or honoraria. If you elect to participate in a survey or program, we may disclose your information to certain third parties (as described below), provided you have given us your consent to do so. Cookies Additionally, when you use our products, services, or website, we may monitor your use of the websites by collecting aggregate information by using "cookies." Cookies are small pieces of information that a website transfers to the memory or hard drive on your computer. We use both session ID cookies (expire when you close the browser) and persistent cookies (persist even after you close the browser). Most web browsers have options that allow you to control whether or not to accept cookies and give you the option to delete all cookies. Please note, however, that disabling cookies in your browser may prevent access to some parts of our services. Third parties may set cookies on your web browser and/or obtain information about the fact that an IP address web browser visited a certain website. Our services are not currently configured to respond to a browser's Do Not Track signals. Company does not track you over time and across third-party websites to provide targeted advertising and therefore does not respond to Do Not Track (DNT) signals. Some third-party sites may track your web activities when they provide services or content to you in an effort to tailor what such third-party presents to you. You may configure your browser to your desired DNT setting. The use of cookies by our partners, affiliates, tracking utility company, service providers is not covered by this Privacy Notice. We do not have access or control over these cookies. Our partners, affiliates, tracking utility company, service providers use session ID cookies to make it easier for you to navigate our site. Log Files As is true of most web sites, we may also gather certain information automatically and store it in log files. For instance, when you visit our website, our web server will automatically recognize some Non-Identifiable Information, including but not limited to the date and time you visited our site, the pages you visited, the referrer (the website you came from), the type of browser you are using (e.g. Firefox, Internet Explorer), the type of operating system you are using (e.g., Windows or Mac OS), and the domain name and address of your Internet service provider (e.g., AT&T, Verizon, AOL). Clear Gifs (Web Beacons/Web Bugs) We may employ a software technology called clear gifs (a.k.a. Web Beacons/Web Bugs), that help us better manage content on our site by informing us what content is effective. Clear gifs are tiny graphics with a unique identifier similar in function to cookies and are used to track the online movements of Web users. In contrast to cookies, which are stored on a user's computer hard drive, clear gifs are embedded invisibly on Web pages and are about the size of a period at the end of this sentence. We do not tie the information gathered by clear gifs to our Web users' Personal Information. Social Media Widgets Our website may include Social Media Features, such as the Twitter and LinkedIn buttons and Widgets or interactive mini-programs that run on that site. These Features may collect your IP address, which page you are visiting on that site, and may set a cookie to enable the feature to function properly. Social Media Features and Widgets are either hosted by a third-party or hosted directly on the website. Your interactions with these Features are governed by the privacy notice of the company providing it. Information Collected from Other Sources We may occasionally supplement your information with information we receive from other sources including, but not limited to (a) companies that provide our products or services by way of a co-branded or private-labeled website, (b) companies (e.g., pharmaceutical companies) that sponsor surveys or programs on our website (the entities in (a) and (b), collectively, "Partner Companies"), (c) downloadable software applications from our website, or (d) professional organizations such as the American Medical Associations, which we will add to the information which we already hold about you. Some of the categories of Personal Information and Non-Identifiable Information collected for the purposes identified above are required in order to use the services, while others are not required to use the services. For example, using your e-mail address to communicate with you in order to send you marketing communications about our latest products or services is not required to maintain the relationship we have with you. As detailed below, you control the choice of receiving marketing communications from us. Your decision not to provide Personal Information or certain Non-Identifiable Information for purposes that are not required to use the services (e.g., receiving marketing communications), will not prevent you from accessing the applicable website, but may limit access to some parts of our services. How Information is Used We use the information we collect to administer our business activities, improve our websites, products, and services, provide customer service, make available products and services to our users and customers, and for the recruiting, marketing, and other business purposes of the Company and our Partner Companies. We also use this information in helping us to create and manage your account, verify your identity, verify your eligibility for products and services, deliver interactive educational programs, provide you support, initiate and fulfill orders, complete transactions, and administer the websites. We may also use your Personal Information to communicate with you. For example, we may correspond with you, possibly through email, direct mail, fax, or phone calls related to your transactions and orders, participation in our surveys, programs and services, invitations to new surveys or programs and services, deliver information about new surveys, programs or services, and to alert you to developments in the use of pharmaceuticals or selected information from the pharmaceutical industry related to your medical specialty. We may use contact and demographic information to offer participation in surveys or programs.
