Privacy & Cookies Notice

Our Pledge To Privacy

We find your privacy important to us. We include this notice to help protect your privacy by outlining our online information policies and the choices you may make regarding how your information is collected and used.

The Way We Gather Information

This notice applies to all gathered or submitted information on our website. On some of the pages on our site, you can submit requests, sign up to receive materials, or provide follow-up contact and personal information. The types of personal data collected on those pages are:

• Name

• Address

• Email address

• Phone number

Information concerning a physical issue or condition that you are experiencing. We may ask for more specific medical information to be collected from you via a secure form after the initial submission of the basic information.

The Way We Use Information

We are not sharing the information with third parties. We use the obtained information in two ways.

1) When submitting an information form to patients, we will use the information provided to follow up with the applicant. By filling out the form, you give us permission to contact you for more details.

2) If someone fills out a medical history questionnaire, this information will be used during the evaluation to decide whether you are a candidate for our procedures.

If you receive a mailing from us relating to your approval of entering our mailing list, you will see an option to unsubscribe from that list and discontinue receiving these periodic mailings related to news, proceedings and events. If you receive an email without the option of opting out of the mailing, you will receive it as part of a personal communication from us.

Web Data

We use non-identifying and aggregating information to better use analytics to design our website. For instance, we may evaluate that X number of individuals visited a certain area on our website, or that Y number of men and Z number of women filled out our registration form, but we do not reveal anything that could be used to identify people.

Eventually, we never use or share the personally identifiable information given online without giving you the opportunity to opt-out or otherwise forbid such unrelated uses in ways unrelated to those mentioned above.
