Information Collected Through the Properties

Personally Identifiable Information:

We may ask you to provide us with personally identifiable information about yourself at various times and at various places on the Properties, such as when you register for newsletters, provide comments, subscribe to our services or other feature on the Properties.Personally identifiable information is information that could reasonably be used to identify you personally (such as your full name, address, or e-mail address), which we refer to as “PII.” We may also ask you to provide us with demographic information or information regarding your interests, hobbies or similar information.In addition, as part of our current and planned services, we may, at any time, include features to the Properties that require you to register or otherwise provide PII, including credit card information, or we may require registration or a subscription fee to gain access to any portion of the Properties.You can choose not to provide certain information, but then you may not be able to take advantage of or participate in many of the Properties’ features.We may also maintain information about you that you do not directly provide, whether it is information received from third parties, such as business partners, or information we collect about your activities.

Non-Personally Identifiable Information:

When you visit the Properties, our servers automatically collect certain web site usage information.Property usage information is non-identifying information that describes how our visitors use and navigate the Properties, and it includes the number and frequency of visitors to each web page and the length of their stays.We may also collect the information automatically sent to us by your browser, such as browser type, referrer data that identifies the web page visited prior and subsequent to visiting the Properties, and IP address.An IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer whenever you access the Internet, which web servers use to identify where to send the information your computer requests.We may use IP addresses for a number of purposes, such as system administration, to report aggregate information to our business partners or to audit the use of the Properties.We also may determine the technology available through your browser in order to serve you the most appropriate version of a web page.We may disclose non-identifying user information, such as aggregated statistics, to third parties for a variety of purposes, including describing our services, marketing, and providing a better user experience on the Properties.

Cookies:

Like most web sites, the Properties sometimes make use of browser cookies.We may use cookies for a number of purposes, such as tracking usage patterns on the Properties, measuring the effectiveness of advertising, to help serve advertisements, limiting multiple responses and registrations, facilitating your ability to navigate the Properties and as part of a verification or screening process.We may link the cookies to any PII or other information we collect.Most browsers are initially set up to accept cookies.You can reset your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent by indicating this in the preferences or options menu in your browser.However, it is possible that some parts of the Properties will not operate correctly if you disable cookies and you may not be able to take advantage of some of the Properties’ features.You should consult with your browser’s provider/manufacturer if you have any questions regarding disabling cookies.

Web Beacons:

Our web pages or e-mail messages may contain a small graphic image called a web beacon, which is sometimes also called a “web bug” or “clear gif”, and which allows the party that sent the web beacon to monitor and collect certain limited information about the viewer of the web page or e-mail message (such as the type of browser downloading the web beacon, the IP address of the computer that the web beacon is sent to and the time the web beacon was viewed, as well as the URL of the page the web beacon comes from).Web beacons are typically very small (generally 1-by-1 pixel) and invisible to the user, but, in general, any electronic image viewed as part of a web page or e-mail message, including an advertisement or HTML content, can act as a web beacon.We may use web beacons for a number of purposes, such as to count visitors to our web pages or to monitor how our users navigate the Properties, and we may include web beacons in e-mail newsletters in order to count how many newsletters (or particular articles, links, etc.) we sent were actually opened.In addition, third parties that serve ads or content onto the Properties or within our e-mails may use web beacons.We do not have control over web beacons used by such third parties.

Third Party Content

When you are on the Properties, certain content may be served by a third party.These third parties may also drop their own cookies and/or use web beacons, which may be used to identify some of your preferences or to recognize you if you have previously had contact with them.We do not control the use of such technology by third parties, the information they collect, or how they use such information.

Our Use and Disclosure of Collected Information and Your Choices

We may use your PII to provide you with requested goods, services or content, to contact you in connection with your subscriptions, a sweepstakes or promotion, or other purposes.In addition, the Properties may send you special offers via e-mail if you do not opt-out from receiving such information when you register with the Properties.If you wish to unsubscribe from this Property’s e-mail newsletter or to change your preferences, follow the instructions for unsubscribing included within many of the e-mails you receive from us.We may also contact you regarding any problems or questions we have relating to your use of the Properties, or, in our discretion, notify you of changes to our Privacy Policy, Terms of Use or other policy or terms that affect you and your use of the Properties.We may also use information collected about our users to provide customized content, advertising, products and services, or to improve the content and navigation of the Properties, or for other purposes.We may aggregate the information about you that we collect through the Properties, including information received internally or from promotional partners and other third parties.In those cases, we will apply this Privacy Policy to any personal information received.If you submit a letter to the editor or other content to be published in one of our publications, whether such publication originates online or offline, we may publish your name or other information in connection with publishing the letter to the editor or other content.

Sharing and Disclosure of PII to Third Parties:

We may share PII as disclosed in this Privacy Policy or at the time you provide your information.In addition, we will share PII with third parties for third parties’ marketing and other purposes and so that the third parties can send you information and special offers.We may also share PII with third parties in the following circumstances:

• We may employ other companies and individuals to perform functions on our behalf.Examples include, without limitation, fulfilling orders, sending communications on our behalf (including our e-mail editions), analyzing data, providing marketing assistance, creating, hosting and/or running contests/sweepstakes/games and providing customer service.These third parties may have access to our users’ PII in order to provide these services to us or on our behalf.
• We may disclose information about our users, including PII, at the request of governmental authorities conducting an investigation, or to verify or enforce compliance with our internal policies and applicable laws.We may use IP addresses to identify users in cooperation with internet service providers or law enforcement agencies, and may also disclose user information whenever we believe disclosure is necessary to limit our liability or to protect or enforce the rights, interests or safety of the Properties, our users or others.
• We may sell, transfer or otherwise disclose user information, including PII, in connection with a corporate merger, consolidation, the sale of substantially all assets or of a business group, or other corporate change.

User-Submitted Content

The Properties may allow you to make comments or participate in chat rooms, forums, blogs and message boards or other forms of user-submitted content (“User-Submitted Content”).If you post PII online, it will be publicly available and you may receive unsolicited messages from other parties.We cannot ensure the security of any User-Submitted Content.Also, we cannot ensure that parties who have access to such publicly available information will respect your privacy.Please exercise caution when deciding to disclose personal information in these areas.

Security

We store the information we collect from you on limited access servers, and we take steps to maintain the security of our servers and to protect your PII from unauthorized disclosure.However, even reasonable security measures do not guarantee the security of any information you transmit via the internet, including to NūbisCare.You are responsible for protecting your username and password from third party access, and for selecting passwords that are secure.

Links

Please be aware that when you are on the Properties or viewing an e-mail from us, you could be directed to other web pages or online content through links that take you outside our service and are beyond our control.For example, you may encounter links from partners that may include NūbisCare’s logo as part of a co-branding agreement.If you “click” on a link to such a third party, the “click” takes you to a third party’s web site.These other web sites, even if they are branded NūbisCare, may be operated by third parties who set their own cookies, collect data, and/or have their own privacy policies.This Privacy Policy only covers information collected by us on the Properties, and we encourage you to review the privacy policy of any other web site you visit.
