Privacy Policy and Terms of Use
We are committed to respecting your privacy. We urge all users of www.fullcirclemed.org (the “Site”) to read this Privacy Policy to learn more about the policies and practices that we have developed to safeguard personal information.
Scope of Privacy Policy
This policy applies to your use of all of the sites and services owned or operated by Full Circle Foundation for Integrative Medicine. This policy does not apply to your use of unaffiliated sites to which Full Circle’s websites may link.
Personal Identification Information
We will never intentionally disclose any personal identification information about you as an individual user (such as, for example, your full name, street address, telephone number, credit card number or e-mail address) to any third party without having received your permission. We may request personal identification information from you in connection with your use of, or participation in, our surveys, forums, subscription registrations, content submissions, chats, bulletin boards, discussion groups, requests for suggestions, visitors’ requests for free products or services or additional information, and in connection with other activities, services or resources we make available on our site. In all of these cases, we will collect personal identification information from you only if you voluntarily submit such information to us. If you do provide us with personal information, we may use it to conduct the activities described above. If you identify yourself to us by sending us an e-mail with questions or comments, we may use your personal information to respond to your questions or comments. We may file your comments for future reference, or we may discard the information after we have reviewed it.
If you give us your permission, we may also use personal identification information for internal or external marketing and promotional purposes. On occasion, for example, we may send you e-mails to inform you about services, upcoming events, programs or classes that we think might be of interest to the users of our sites. For us to obtain your permission to send you this information, we will give you an opportunity to “opt-in” at the time our request for your personal information is made.
If you do “opt-in,” you may choose to “opt-out” at any time, even after you have provided personal information, by following the procedures set forth below at the end of this Privacy Policy.
Other Information We Collect
We use the information recorded in our web server logs about your use of the services and activities on the Site to monitor user traffic patterns and try to analyze what our users prefer so that we can design better services and activities for you.
IP Address. We record the Internet Protocol (IP) address of your computer when you visit the Site. The IP address does not identify you personally, but it is what allows us to maintain communications with you as you move about the Site.
Cookies
We may also collect information about your use of the Site through cookies and similar technologies. A “cookie” is a unique numeric code that we transfer to your computer so that we can keep track of your interests and preferences and recognize you as a return visitor to the Site. Cookie technology allows us to collect “clickstream” data, which is not personally identifying information, but which reflects your activities on the Site, including your interest in certain site categories. We do not share tracking information with unaffiliated companies, and we do not allow other companies to place cookies on our sites.
Choice/Opt-Out
If you “opt-in” to receive information from Full Circle, you can change your mind later. If at any time you would like to stop receiving such information, you can let us know by sending an e-mail stating your preference to info@fullcirclemed.org.
Your Acceptance of These Terms
By using the Full Circle website, services and discussion groups, you signify your acceptance of our Privacy Policy and Terms of Use Agreement. If you do not agree to this policy, please do not use our site, services or discussion groups. Your continued use of the Full Circle site, services and discussion groups following the posting of changes to these terms will mean that you accept those changes.
Changes in Our Privacy Policy
We will occasionally update this privacy statement. For material changes to this statement, we will notify you by placing a prominent notice on the website.
Questions
If you have any questions or concerns about our privacy policy, please send us an e-mail to: info@fullcirclemed.org.
