PRIVACY POLICY

HIPAA

Pharmacy, to the extent it is a “covered entity” under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (“HIPAA”) has its own privacy and security obligations with respect to your PHI. We encourage you to contact Pharmacy regarding their privacy and security practices (for more information regarding your rights under HIPAA, see https://www.hhs.gov/ocr/privacy).

To the extent we are a “business associate” of Pharmacy under HIPAA, we have agreements in place with Pharmacy requiring us to only use and disclose your PHI as Pharmacy is permitted to under HIPAA. This Privacy Policy and the privacy and security practices described in this Privacy Policy are designed to comply with these agreements. As such, among other obligations, we will:

use reasonable and appropriate safeguards to keep your PHI that we collect private and confidential;
alert you in accordance with the guidelines set forth under HIPAA if we are made aware of any unauthorized access to your PHI that we have collected; and
provide you access in a reasonable time and manner to your PHI we have collected and made any reasonably requested amendment thereto.
Digital Pharmacist Inc. may de-identify Personal Health Information pursuant to the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (“HIPAA”) and aggregate patient’s de-identified information with other Digital Pharmacist patient information, and use such aggregated information for population-based research activities and analytics; Treatment, payment, enrollment, or eligibility for benefits are not conditioned upon patient reviewing the privacy policy; when information is used or disclosed, it may be subject to re-disclosure and may no longer be protected by state or federal privacy regulations.

Acknowledgement regarding SMS messages and push notifications.

To the extent the Products enables you to send or receive SMS messages, the standard text messaging rates or other carrier charges may apply to such use. Further, to the extent the Products has push notification capability, by downloading such Product and clicking to allow push notifications, YOU CONSENT TO RECEIVE COMMUNICATIONS, INCLUDING COMMERCIAL COMMUNICATIONS FROM OR ON BEHALF OF US, PHARMACY AND PARTNERS.

Security of your Sensitive Information.

We maintain physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards designed to protect your Sensitive Information. These safeguards include storing your Sensitive Information on our secure servers behind firewalls and using encryption technology. Despite the actions and precautions we take, no data transmissions over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. Consequently, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of your Sensitive Information and you acknowledge and agree that you transmit it to us at your own risk. However, as noted above, we will alert you in accordance with the guidelines set forth under HIPAA if we are made aware of any unauthorized access to your PHI that we have collected.

Third party products, services and technologies.

We may provide links to third-party products on the Products or in other communications to you. These links may appear as a specific domain name or URL or may be activated by clicking on an advertisement or other icon or graphic. Please be aware that other products and services, including the products of third parties that you connect with through the Products, may collect personally identifiable information about you. We cannot control and are not responsible for the information collection practices of any third-party products, services, or applications. We encourage you to carefully review their terms of use, privacy policies, and any other legal notifications before using or providing information through such products, services or applications.

Further, the Products may employ third-party technologies that require you to accept such third party’s terms. This Privacy Policy does not cover the information practices of those third-party technologies.

Children’s and dependent’s privacy.

While the Products are not intended for use by children under the age of 13, certain caregivers may use these Products for the care of children under the age of 13. We apply the same rigorous privacy policies set forth in the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 to children’s information. If you are aware of information that has been submitted to the Products on behalf of a child under the age of 13 and believes this submission was made in error or with malice intent, please report immediately to support@digitalpharmacist.com.

Additionally, when you submit Sensitive Information, on behalf of your dependents or patients, you warrant that you have the express permission of such person to do so. If you do not have permission to do so, you should not submit such Sensitive Information as you may be violating HIPAA.

Information Choices and Changes

We may need to communicate with you about the Products, and we would like to make certain commercial offers available to you from time to time. As such, by signing up for our newsletter or by creating an account on the Products, you consent to receive commercial messages (whether by phone, email, text or push notifications) from us or our third-party partners, and acknowledge and agree that your primary phone numbers and email addresses and other information may be used for the purpose of initiating commercial messages. We will allow you to opt-out of receiving commercial messages, but in order to stop receiving any messages from us whatsoever (including administrative messages regarding the Products), you will need to terminate your account.

Depending on your browser, you may be able to remove and reject cookies from our Products by changing your browser settings. The default setting of many browsers is set to accept cookies until you change your settings. Please note that if you disable or refuse cookies, certain features of the Products may become inaccessible or may not function properly.

Additionally, your web browser may allow you to opt-out of our collection of Online Tracking Information by selecting a “do not track” (or similar) setting. However, we do not currently have processes to address those settings or other “do not track” requests, and consequently, cannot guarantee that we will honor such requests. If you do not want us to collect this information, do not use the Products.

Changes to this privacy policy.

This is our entire Privacy Policy and it replaces any earlier version. We may change this Privacy Policy by posting a new version on the Products, and it is your responsibility to review this Privacy Policy periodically. If we make material changes to our practices regarding the collection, use, and sharing of your Personal Information, we will notify you via e-mail to the email address you provide to us and/or through a notice on the Products.

When we do change the Privacy Policy, we will also revise the “revised” date. Your continued use of the Products after such date constitutes your agreement to this Privacy Policy and any updates.

Information you voluntarily disclose.

Please keep in mind that whenever you voluntarily disclose Information through any public-facing features of the Products (for example, via public forums), that Information can be collected and used by others. You submit this Information at your own risk. We are not responsible for the security or privacy of any Information you choose to submit in connection with these public features.
