THIS NOTICE DESCRIBES HOW MEDICAL INFORMATION ABOUT YOU MAY BE USED AND DISCLOSED. PLEASE REVIEW IT CAREFULLY.

We may use and disclose information, including medical information, collected from you as described in this Privacy Policy, except our use and disclosure of Protected Health Information shall be only as permitted by the administrative simplification provision of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (“HIPAA”) of 1996 and its Standards for Privacy of Individually Identifiable Health Information and Security Standards for the Protection of Electronic Protected Health Information, as may be amended or otherwise modified by the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (“HITECH”) Act of 2009, to the extent it applies directly to us.

USES AND DISCLOSURES:

BRIGHTOUTCOME may use or disclose your de-identified Protected Health Information for data aggregation by combining it with other de-identified personal or medical information for the purpose of data analysis, clinical research, or other purposes, including but not limited to, commercial purposes, such as the sale of the aggregated information.

BRIGHTOUTCOME may use or disclose your Protected Health Information for other uses or disclosures only as permitted by the Terms of Service, the terms of our Business Associate Agreement with your health care provider, or as permitted or required by law.

BRIGHTOUTCOME has no ability to control and is not responsible or liable for the use or disclosure of your Protected Health Information by anyone when your Protected Health Information is part of the content of a Submission to a public portion of the Website, even if inadvertent; and BRIGHTOUTCOME has no ability to control and is not responsible or liable for any download, sharing, publishing, or further distribution or dissemination of such Protected Health Information by others after receipt of the communication.

BRIGHTOUTCOME has no ability to control and is not responsible or liable for the use or disclosure of your Protected Health Information by a recipient of any communication made by you or on your behalf by an Authorized Agent when your Personal Health Information is included in the communication, even if inadvertent, and BRIGHTOUTCOME has no ability to control and is not responsible or liable for any further distribution or dissemination of such Protected Health Information by the recipient or any further distribution or dissemination of such Protected Health Information after receipt, whether authorized by the recipient or not.

Third Party Websites

The Website may contain links to other websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of these other websites. You will need to check the policy statement of these others websites to understand their policies. When you access a linked site you may be disclosing private information. It is your responsibility to keep such information private and confidential.

Correcting and Updating Your Information

If you need to update or change your information, you may do so by editing the user record to the extent allowed on the Website. To update your User Profile, click My Account at the top right of the Website, then add or update your information.

Cookies

When you view the Website, we may store some information on your computer's hard drive. This information will be in the form of a "Cookie." Cookies enable us to establish the shopping cart session and allow you to purchase products on-line at our site. Most web browsers automatically accept Cookies, but you can change your browser to prevent that. Without accepting a Cookie, your use of the Service may be affected.

Security

Please note that data that is transported over an open network, such as the Internet or e-mail, may be accessible to anybody. We cannot guarantee the confidentiality of any communication or material transmitted via such open networks. When disclosing any personal information via an open network, you should remain mindful of the fact that it is potentially accessible to others, and consequently, can be collected and used by others without your consent. In particular, while individual data packets are often encrypted, the names of the sender and recipient are not. A third party may therefore be able to trace an existing bank account or relationship or one that is subsequently created. Even if both the sender and recipient are located in the same country data may also be transmitted via such networks to other countries regularly and without controls, including to countries that do not afford the same level of data protection as your country of domicile.

Your data may be lost during transmission or may be accessed by unauthorized parties. We do not accept any liability for direct or indirect losses as regards the security of your Personal Information or data during its transfer via Internet. Please use other means of communication if you think this is necessary or prudent for security reasons.

Questions regarding this Policy or the practices of the Website should be directed to BRIGHTOUTCOME’s Administrator by emailing us at info@brighoutcome.com or by certified mail addressed to BrightOutcome Inc.
