You should review this Privacy Policy periodically so that you keep up to date on our most current policies and practices. We note the effective date of the latest version of our Privacy Policy at the end of this Privacy Policy.
This Privacy Policy applies to MedAdvisor’s U.S. business and information that is subject to U.S. federal and state requirements. It does not apply to MedAdvisor’s affiliates or information collected that is not within the jurisdiction of the U.S.
Information We Collect and Application to this Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy applies to all personal information, personal data, and the like, (collectively, “Personal Information”) collected by or on behalf of MedAdvisor directly from an individual or from other Sources (as defined below). By using the Sources, you consent to the data collection and use practices described in this Privacy Notice.
Personal Information does not include “Protected Health Information” (“PHI”) that MedAdvisor collects, stores, uses, and discloses on behalf of “Covered Entities” governed by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, and the Department of Health and Human Services’ implementing regulations, as respectively may be amended from time to time (collectively “HIPAA”). MedAdvisor’s collection, use, and disclosure of PHI is governed by HIPAA, and is subject to the various Notice of Privacy Practices of MedAdvisor’s Covered Entity partners. If you have questions regarding MedAdvisor’s use of Covered Entity PHI or the Covered Entities Notices of Privacy Practices, please contact us at data.privacy@adherishealth.com.
MedAdvisor may collect Personal Information that includes information that identifies an individual or relates to an identifiable individual, including but not limited to, your name, physical address, telephone number, e-mail address, company affiliation, and associated interests.
MedAdvisor may also collect other information which is not Personal Information – information that does not reveal your specific identity or does not directly relate to an individual. This other information may include, but is not limited to, browser and device information, data collected through automated electronic interactions, application usage data, demographic information, geographic or geo-location information, statistical and aggregated information. Statistical or aggregated information does not directly identify a specific person, but it may be derived from Personal Information. For example, we may aggregate Personal Information to calculate the percentage of users in a particular zip code.
In some instances, we may combine Personal Information with other information, such as combining a precise geographical location with your name. If we combine Personal Information with other information, we will treat the combined information as Personal Information.

The Sources may provide links to or the ability to connect with non-MedAdvisor websites, social networks or applications (“Third-Party Sites”). Clicking on those links or enabling those connections may allow the third party to collect or share information about you. Those Third-Party Sites are beyond MedAdvisor control.

"Web beacons" (also known as image tags, gifs or web bugs) are small pieces of code used to collect advertising data, such as counting page views, promotion views or advertising responses. The Sources and/or third parties may use “cookies,” “web beacons” and other similar tracking technologies (collectively, “Tracking Technologies”) to collect information from you automatically as you use the Sources, browse MedAdvisor websites and the web.
Other Tracking Technologies: We use Tracking Technologies to help tailor our content, understand website and internet usage, improve or customize the content, offerings or advertisements through the Sources, personalize your experience with respect to the Sources (for example, to recognize you by name when you return to a MedAdvisor website), save your password in password-protected areas, save your online video player settings, help us offer you programs or services that may be of interest to you, deliver relevant advertising, maintain and administer the Sources and for other purposes described in the "Uses of Information."
These Tracking Technologies collect “click stream” data and information regarding your use of the Sources, such as your visits, use of our features and preferences, and may also collect your IP address or some other identifier unique to the device you use to access the Sources (“Identifier”). Your Identifier may be automatically assigned to the device you use to access the Sources.
