Privacy Policy
Last visited: January 2025.

A Legal Disclaimer

Patient Protect Systems (“Patient Protect”, “we”) created this Privacy Policy (“Policy”) in order to ensure confidence of all three groups of users we interact with: Patient Protect subscribers (“Subscribers”), the customers of Patient Protect subscribers (“Consumers”) and visitors to our corporate website and directories. Collectively we may refer to these groups as “users”.

1. Patient Protect Subscribers

Patient Protect asks new Subscribers to provide their name, business name, address, phone and fax numbers, e-mail address, and payment information. This information is referred to as “Subscriber Information”. As part of Patient Protect’s service deployment process, your customers’ personally identifiable information (“Consumer Information”) is uploaded into our secure servers. This process is performed so Patient Protect can provide our services to consumers on your behalf. The collection of Subscriber Information and Consumer Information is done solely to provide our services to you in accordance with the Customer Terms and Conditions and Terms of Use.

3. Consumers

As a consumer, you receive valuable and timely communication from a company with which you have an existing business relationship. You have the right at any time to opt-out from receiving these communications. If you would like to opt-out from receiving these communications please click “Update Preferences” in our e-mails, e-mail info@PatientProtect.com, or send “STOP” in response to text messages. If you transmit personal health information, you acknowledge that you waive any right to the privacy of such information.

4. Cookies

Patient Protect may use cookies to make interactions with the Company’s web properties easy and meaningful. When you visit one our websites or hosted services, our servers send a cookie to your computer. Standing alone, cookies do not personally identify you; they merely recognize your Web browser. Unless you choose to identify yourself to Patient Protect, either by becoming a subscriber, or filling out a Web form, you remain anonymous to us. Cookies allow us to personalize your experience with our website and to ensure that no unauthorized users can access our subscribers’ web pages within our service.

5. Response to subpoenas and other legal requests

To the extent permitted by law, Patient Protect may disclose Personal Information to government authorities or third parties pursuant to a legal request, subpoena or other legal process. Patient Protect may also use or disclose your information as permitted by law to perform charge verifications or protect our rights, interests, or property as well as those of our affiliates, customers, or website users. Following disclosure to any third party, information may be accessible by others to the extent permitted or required by applicable law.

6. Aggregated De-Identified Information

Patient Protect may provide aggregated information collected about our users, in accordance to practice described in this Policy, to some of our business partners. This information is used in a collective manner and does not identify you individually in any way.

7. Log files

We may store information about your use, such as your search activity, the pages you view, the date and time of your visit, Subscribers you call, and appointments you make through our hosted service. We also may store information that your computer or mobile device provides to us in connection with your use of our websites and hosted services, such as your browser type, type of computer or mobile device, browser language, IP address, mobile carrier, phone number, unique device identifier, advertising identifier, location (including geolocation, beacon based location, and GPS location), and requested and referring URLs. You may be able to disallow our use of certain location data through your device or browser settings.

8. Choice and Opt-Out

Patient Protect always provides the ability for Users to opt-out of having personally identifiable information used as part of our service offering. All e-mails and text messages Patient Protect sends out on behalf of our subscribers provide a way for consumers to opt-out. In addition, any visitor to our site, subscriber to our service or consumer may e-mail us at info@PatientProtect.com to opt-out of receiving any further correspondence from us.

Without limiting the foregoing, we may also share information with our service providers to ensure the quality of information provided. Unless described in this Privacy Policy, we do not share, sell, rent, or trade any information with third parties for their promotional purposes.
Business Partners: From time to time, we may partner with other companies to jointly offer products or services. If you purchase or specifically express interest in a jointly-offered product or service from Patient Protect, we may share information collected in connection with your purchase or expression of interest with our joint promotion partner(s). Patient Protect does not control our business partners’ use of information we collect, and their use of the information will be in accordance with their own privacy policies.
