Your privacy is very important to us. The following information describes our privacy policy and explains how we manage information regarding your use of www.athealth.com and www.athealthCE.com. Please read the following policy to understand how the information you provide to us will be treated as you make full use of our site. This policy may change from time to time; consequently, you should review this Privacy Policy each time you log into our site. User Information When you register, subscribe to one of our newsletters, or purchase a continuing education course, athealth.com collects and stores the information you provide to us so that we can better understand and serve your professional needs. Athealth.com uses this information to: Measure site activity Advise you of new or special services and information. Respond to your requests. Direct content and educational courses to you in your areas of interest. Offer you the opportunity to have your name and password "remembered" using "cookie" technology so that you do not have to sign in each time you visit the site, take a continuing education course, or purchase other products. Keep a record of your continuing education courses, test scores, evaluations, and other data related to your courses. We do not use cookies or any other technology to track or report on your activity when you are not on the athealth.com Web site. Advertisers who place advertisements on our Web site may place cookies and/or Web beacons on your browser to collect non-personally identifiable information about your use of our Web site in order to provide advertisements about goods and services that are of interest to you. If you do not wish to have a cookie placed on your browser, you can set your browser to reject all cookies. Instructions on how to set your browser to reject cookies are usually found in the "help" section of your toolbar. However, keep in mind that if you reject cookies, certain functions of our Web site, such as taking an online CE course or saving your password, may not work properly when you use the site. As an alternative to setting your browser to reject cookies, you could consider using some type of software that routinely sweeps your hard drive to manage unwanted cookies. We also allow third-party companies to serve ads and/or collect certain anonymous information when you visit our web site. These companies may use non-personally identifiable information (e.g., click stream information, browser type, time and date, subject of advertisements clicked or scrolled over) during your visits to this and other Web sites in order to provide advertisements about goods and services likely to be of greater interest to you. These companies typically use a cookie or third party web beacon to collect this information. To learn more about this behavioral advertising practice or to opt-out of this type of advertising, you can visit http://www.networkadvertising.org/managing/opt_out.asp Athealth.com does not sell or provide your e-mail address or customer information to outside parties, except as follows. In the event that athealth.com or substantially all of its assets were to be acquired by another company, customer information, including your e-mail address, would be one of the transferred assets. If you register for an online continuing education course through our Web sites, and the course you register for is paid for by an entity other than yourself (for example, by your employer), we provide that entity with your name and professional data, course name and registration/completion dates, and test score so that payment for the course can be made. If you register for an online continuing education course through our Web sites and use a discount code or organizational code provided by your employer, organization, or other entity, we provide the employer, organization, or other entity with your name and professional data, course name, and registration/completion dates so that these entitites can evaluate the success of the discount offer. Athealth.com does share aggregate information about its users with other parties. Aggregate information is information that describes the habits, usage patterns, and/or demographics of users as a group but does not include the identity or e-mail address of a particular user. For example, a potential sponsor of Friday's Progress Notes may want to know how many practitioners from California subscribe to the newsletter, and we do provide this kind of aggregate information to outside parties.
