This Privacy Policy does not apply to information that would be considered “Protected Health Information” under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (“HIPAA”). HCA HealthCare’s’ use and disclosure of Protected Health Information is set forth in the HCA Healthcare Notice of Privacy Practices, which can be accessed at the bottom of the facility website.
Information Collected through the Website
Our Website may include pages that permit you the opportunity to provide us with Personal Information about yourself. As used in this Privacy Policy, "Personal Information" means any information that may be used, either alone or in combination with other information, to personally identify an individual as defined by applicable state laws as noted below. We collect certain information, including Personal Information, from and about our Website users in three ways:
• Directly from you;
• Directly from our web server logs; or
• Cookies and web beacons.
Information Provided by You
We and our service providers collect Personal Information through online forms to provide certain features of the Services to you. For example, if applying for a job through the Website, we may request you to fill out a form with information such as your name, e-mail address, phone number, and work experience. If you do not provide the information required to submit the forms, we may not be able to provide you with related features and services. In some cases, you may have the opportunity to enter into our secure forms any content that you choose. You are responsible for such content and we reserve the right to use such content as part of our Services.
Web Server Logs
When you access or use our Services, we may track information to administer our Services and analyze its usage. Examples of information we may track include, without limitation:
• Your Internet protocol address;
• The kind of browser or computer you use;
• Number of links you click within our Services;
• State or country from which you accessed our Services;
• Date and time of your visit;
• Name of your Internet service provider;
• Third party websites you linked to from our Services; and
• Pages or information you viewed on our Services.
We use this information to analyze and improve our Services, monitor traffic and usage patterns for information security purposes, and to help make our Services more useful.
Cookies and Web Beacons
A "cookie" is a small text file that may be transferred to your computer's hard drive to personalize our services for you and collect information regarding usage of our Services. Each computer is assigned a different cookie that contains a random, unique identifier. Our Services may use two different types of cookies: a "session" cookie, which is required to track a user session, for example, and which expires shortly after the session ends, and a "persistent" cookie, used to track unique visits to the Portal (defined below), as well as how the user arrived at the Portal (for example, through an email link or from a referral link), and the type of user (patient, provider, consumer, etc.). So that users are not counted twice, this cookie can "persist" anywhere from six months to two years.
Your browser software can be set to warn you of cookies or reject all cookies. Most browsers offer instructions on how to reset the browser to reject cookies in the "Help" section of the toolbar. If you reject our cookies, this may disable some of the functionality of our Services and you may not be able to use certain services.
Cookies, to the best of our knowledge, cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. For example, if you personalize a web page, or navigate within a website, a cookie helps the website to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of delivering relevant content and eases website navigation by providing and saving your preferences and login information as well as providing personalized functionality.
We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google LLC, on some of our Sites to help us analyze the traffic and user activity on our Site. Please see Google's Privacy and Terms for more information on how Google Analytics processes Personal Information. By using a browser plugin provided by Google, you can opt out of Google Analytics for the web. You can opt out of Google Analytics through the Cookie Preferences link found in the footer of our websites.
We may display content from third-party platforms or services that allow you to view their hosted content directly from the pages of our Site and interact with them. For example, we use YouTube, a video sharing and social media platform provided by Google LLC, to embed video content on our Site. Google's Privacy Policy explains how YouTube/Google treat your personal data and protect your privacy when you provide your personal data in connection with your access and use of their services.
Some of features of our Services (such as social media widgets that allow you to share content) may use cookies or other methods to gather information regarding your use of the Services and may combine the information in these cookies with any of Personal Information about you that they may have. The use of such information by a third-party depends on the privacy policy of that third-party.
A "web beacon," "clear GIF," "web bug," or "pixel tag" is a tiny graphic file with a unique identifier that is similar in function to a cookie, but would allow us to count the number of users that have visited certain pages or screens of our websites, and to help determine the effectiveness of promotional or advertising campaigns. When used in HTML-formatted email messages, web beacons can tell the sender whether and when the email has been opened. In contrast to cookies, which may be stored on your computer's hard drive, web beacons are typically embedded invisibly on pages or screens. We may use web beacons in providing the Services.
We reserve the right to share aggregated site statistics monitored by cookies and web beacons with our affiliates and partner companies. We treat the information of everyone who comes to our Services in accordance with this Privacy Policy. We do not honor Do Not Track (DNT) requests.
To determine whether any of our third-party service providers honor DNT requests, please read their respective privacy policies.

The Cookie Preferences tool will record when you have consented to cookies and will ask for consent periodically to ensure users stay up to date with changes to our cookie and privacy practices.

These companies use non-personally identifiable information regarding your access and use of our Services and other websites, such as pages viewed, date and time of your visit, and number of times you have viewed an ad (but not your name, address, or other personal information), to serve ads to you on our Services and other websites that may be of interest to you. In the course of serving advertisements to our Services, our third-party advertiser may place or recognize a unique cookie on your browser. In addition, we or other third-party advertiser, may use web beacons to help manage our online advertising. This allows us or a third-party advertiser to learn which banner ads bring users to our Services.

Information Collected through the Portal
As a Service to its customers, we may also provide Portals to offer some customers secure, private access to their own records at our facilities, as well as certain internet-based services which may include, among other things, assistance in finding a doctor, assistance in scheduling appointments, the ability to register for classes and pre-register for procedures, the ability to make payment for medical services rendered, and access to health and patient education materials and secure messaging ("Portal").
The Portal can provide you with access to some of your medical records. When you seek access to those records on the Portal, we need to confirm your identity, so we ask you for information such as your name and email or physical address and other information such as your date of birth (which we may also use to make sure you are eligible to use the Portal in accordance with the Terms) and the answers to "secret questions" to which only you know the answers. This information may be used to help administer your user account and in managing your account. We may need to ask you for the information again when you sign in from a new device.
We may ask for information about your location and medical needs to assist with finding a physician and may collect and pass on information (which may include, where relevant, health information such as your patient history) to assist you in scheduling appointments, pre-registering for procedures, and registering for classes.
The Purposes for Which We Use Personal Information
If you submit or we collect Personal Information through our Services, then such Personal Information may be used in the following ways: (i) to provide, analyze, administer, and improve our Services; (ii) to contact you in connection with our Services and appointments, events or offerings that you may have registered for; (iii) to identify and authenticate your access to the parts of our Portal or other password-protected Services that you are authorized to access; (iv) to send you surveys; (v) for recruiting and human resources administration purposes; (vi) to protect our rights or our property and to ensure the technical functionality and security of our Services; and (vii) as required to meet our legal and regulatory obligations.

No website can guarantee security, but we maintain industry accepted physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to protect your personal information collected via our Services in compliance with applicable law. Please see the Terms of Use available via the Website homepage (“Terms”) for more specific information about information security and your responsibilities.
What Can I Do to Protect My Privacy?
Where you use a Portal or other Service that is secured with a username and password, you are also responsible for taking steps to protect the privacy of Personal Information about you. In order to protect your privacy, you should:
• Never share your username or password;
• Always sign out when you are finished using the Portal;
• Use only secure web browsers;
• Employ common anti-virus and anti-malware tools on your system to keep it safe;
• Use a strong password with a combination of letters and numbers; and
• Change your password often.
If you share your Portal username and password with another person, this will allow that person to see your confidential medical record information. We have no responsibility concerning any breach of your confidential medical record information due to your sharing or losing your user name or password.
Retention of Information
We will retain Personal Information for the period necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it has been collected as described in this Privacy Policy unless a longer retention period is required by law, for security, fraud & abuse prevention, to comply with legal or regulatory requirements, to ensure continuity of services or financial record-keeping purposes. Where practical, we dispose of certain categories of information, including Personal Information, on a regular schedule. For example, we dispose of web server logs after 90 days, information submitted through secure forms after 6 months, and information collected for analytics purposes on our Websites after 5 years.
Third Party Websites and Payments
If you use the Portal to link to another third-party website, you may decide to disclose Personal Information at that website. In contacting that third-party website, or in providing information on that website, that third-party may obtain Personal Information about you. This Privacy Policy does not apply when you leave the Portal and go to a third-party website from the Portal. We encourage you to be aware when you leave the Portal and to read the privacy statements of each third-party website that collects personally identifiable information.
Any payments you may make for services you have found on the Portal (such as enrolling in a class) are not made through the Portal, but are made exclusively through a third-party website, and the separate privacy policy of which applies. We are not responsible for any fees, charges, or actions provided by such a third-party website.
User Communications
• Email communications that you send to us via the email links on our Services may be shared with a customer service representative, employee, medical expert or agent that is most able to address your inquiry. We make reasonable efforts to respond in a timely fashion once communications are received. Once we have responded to your communication, it is discarded or archived, depending on the nature of the inquiry and all applicable laws, rules and regulations.
• The email functionality on our Services does not provide a completely secure and confidential means of communication. It is possible that your email communication may be accessed or viewed by another Internet user while in transit to us. If you wish to keep your communication private, do not use our email.
Your Rights - Personal Information
If you are a Portal user, you may access and amend personal demographic information when logged into the Portal. If you would like to access, amend, erase, export, object to, restrict the processing, or other Personal Information collected via our Services or any other request as described below by state law, you may email our privacy team or write to us at:

Communications Opt-Out
We may send certain messages, including electronic newsletters, notification of account statuses, and marketing communications on a periodic basis. If you wish to be removed from such messages, you may request to discontinue future ones. All such material will have information as to how to opt-out of receiving it, although certain messages (such as a secure message sent by a doctor or an account status update via the Portal), may be required by law and will not have opt-out capabilities.
Opt-Out Preference Signals
We do honor opt-out preference signals as a valid consumer request to opt-out of the sale or sharing of Personal Information and to limit the use of Sensitive Personal Information. This is based on your device and browser’s settings. One example of an opt-out preference signal is the use of a Global Privacy Control (GPC). GPC is a browser extension that makes it easy for consumers to set privacy preferences for their Personal Information as they browse the web. For more information on managing your privacy controls see the Cookies and Web Beacons section above.
Offline Collection of Personal Information
When we collect your Personal Information offline, for example at an onsite event, a Notice at Collection may be printed on a sign-in sheet, a paper version of the Notice could be available at the entrance of the event or prominent signage will be displayed directing you to where the Notice can be found online. All options will provide information to you so that you can exercise your privacy rights listed above.
Minors
We do not have actual knowledge that we sell or share the Personal Information of Consumers who are less than 18 years of age. However, if we have actual knowledge that the Consumer is less than 18 years of age, we will not sell or share the Consumer’s Personal Information unless the Consumer in the case of Consumers who are at least 13 years of age and less than 16 years of age, or the Consumer’s parent or guardian, in the case of Consumers who are less than 13 years of age, has affirmatively authorized the disclosure of the Consumer’s Personal Information.
The categories of sources from which we collect Personal Information are:
• Directly from you;
• Directly from our web server logs; and

Retention of Categories of Personal Information
We will retain Personal Information for the period necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it has been collected. In accordance with internal record retention policies, we dispose of all categories of Personal Information no later than 5 years from the date of collection unless a longer retention period is required by law, for security, fraud & abuse prevention, to comply with legal or regulatory requirements, to ensure continuity of services or financial record-keeping purposes. Consumer accounts in AcuSimple are only deleted at the request of the Consumer and may exceed the five-year retention period. Information collected from a “Contact Us” webform may exceed the five-year retention period as it is a general communication form that sits on most websites to give website visitors the opportunity to ask general questions about the facility, its services or to leave comments.
