Privacy Policy

We have organized this Privacy Policy under the following topics:

This Privacy Policy applies to the Healthtipsbook Web sites owned and operated by Healthtipsbook, including the Healthtipsbook.com site, the Healthtipsbook Health Manager site, and the Healthtipsbook Health-101 sites. Reference to "Healthtipsbook" means Healthtipsbook, including any company that Healthtipsbook.com. controls (for example, a subsidiary that Healthtipsbook.com owns). Healthtipsbook Web sites include any site that Healthtipsbook owns or controls (for example, a Healthtipsbook Health-101 site). Healthtipsbook may share information among its subsidiaries or sites that it owns or controls, but it is always protected under the terms of this Privacy Policy.

The Healthtipsbook Web site contains links to other sites. Once you enter another Web site (whether through an advertisement, service, or content link), be aware that Healthtipsbook is not responsible for the privacy practices of these other sites. We encourage you to look for and review the privacy statements of each and every Web site that you visit through a link or advertisement on Healthtipsbook.

We hope that reading our Privacy Policy helps you understand how we manage information about you. Throughout our Privacy Policy, we have underlined various terms and hot-linked them to our Glossary or to the corresponding Section within the Privacy Policy to help you better understand their meaning.

We are committed to protecting the privacy of children. Neither Healthtipsbook nor any of its services are designed or intended to attract children under the age of 13.

From time to time the Healthtipsbook market research department, or its operations contractors acting on its behalf, conducts online research surveys in order to gather feedback about our site, our sponsors and opinions on important healthcare issues, through email invitations, pop-up surveys and online focus groups. When participating in a survey, we may ask you to submit Personally Identifiable Information. This Personally Identifiable Information is used for research purposes, and is not used for sales solicitations. When a survey is sponsored by a third party, Aggregate Information of the survey results is reported to the sponsor. Personally Identifiable Information collected through market research will be used only by Healthtipsbook and its service providers and contractors and will not be given or sold to a third party without your consent or as otherwise permitted by this Privacy Policy. For market research surveys we will not knowingly accept survey responses from or conduct interviews with any person under the age of 18. Some surveys may provide remuneration to participants such as a small cash fee for your time or an entry into a sweepstakes for a larger prize. Each survey will disclose whether or not it is a paid survey. In addition to collecting survey responses from our members, Cookies may be used to authenticate respondents or to help you pick up where you left off in a survey. If you have Cookies disabled you may not be able to participate in some studies. Cookies may be used to connect survey data with Healthtipsbook site usage characteristics. You will be notified when we would like to use Cookies in this way and your consent will be requested for these Cookies.

Healthtipsbook Health Manager complies with the EU Safe Harbor framework as set forth by the Department of Commerce regarding the collection, use, and retention of data from the European Union. Healthtipsbook Health Manager allows you a secure place to store your Personal Health Information and provides tools and services in order to better manage your health and the health of your family. Healthtipsbook Health Manager requires additional registration whether you access it through (i) Healthtipsbook, (ii) your employer's Web site or (iii) your healthcare sponsor's website. Regardless of how you access the Healthtipsbook Health Manager the following apply:

A. Healthtipsbook Health Manager Home Page

Personal Health Information that you enter into one of the Healthtipsbook Health Manager tools is used to provide you personalized and clinically relevant information on your personalized Health Manager home page and throughout the Health Manager product. Healthtipsbook Health Manager creates a personal home page specifically for you. You control and authorize who can gain access to this page.

Healthtipsbook Health Manager tailors the information you receive on your personal Health Manager home page to reflect your interests, concerns and personal health characteristics. We attach a concept unique identifier (CUI) to every piece of information that you provide us. For example, if you complete the HealthQuotient and indicate that you have diabetes, that single piece of information is tagged with a CUI that is specific to diabetes. Every user that indicates he or she has diabetes receives this CUI tag. Each time you view your personalized Health Manager pages, this CUI tag is matched to content from Healthtipsbook about diabetes, and if our automated algorithms determine that this is likely to be an important topic to you, it will appear on your personalized pages.

Healthtipsbook Health Manager may combine, in a non-identifiable format, the Personal Health Information you provide with information from other users to create Aggregate Data that may be disclosed to third parties. Aggregate data does not contain any information that could be used to contact or identify you. For example, Healthtipsbook Health Manager may use information gathered to create a composite profile of all the users of a particular third party site. These third party Web sites may use this information to understand community needs and to design appropriate programs and activities on their site. Healthtipsbook Health Manager will not disclose your Personal Health Information to any third party without your prior permission, except as otherwise permitted by this Privacy Policy.

Healthtipsbook Health Manager has the ability to use Personally Identifiable Information that you provide to send you personalized emails or secure electronic messages. During registration for the Healthtipsbook Health Manager, you have the option of choosing whether or not you wish to receive emails pertaining to your health interests, including news, announcements, reminders and opportunities. The Healthtipsbook Health Manager email service requires an "Opt-in" authorization from you.

Information that Healthtipsbook Health Manager deems related to your Personal Health Information will be delivered to you through the Secure Message Center on your personal health home page.

If you decide that you would prefer not to receive personalized email or secure electronic messages from the HealthtipsbookHealth Manager tool, you may "Opt-out" of the service by clicking on the settings tab on your Health Manager home page and changing your email preference. If your employer has implemented the Healthtipsbook Health Manager on your behalf, you will receive email at your work-related email address that has been authorized by your employer but to which you have not specifically Opted-in. These emails will be sent in accordance with instructions from your employer and you will not be able to Opt-out of receiving such emails.

Interactive tools within the Healthtipsbook Health Manager, gather self-reported Personal Health Information. In addition, certain of these tools can store Personal Health Information coming from third party data interchange agreements between your employer, health plan, pharmacy benefits manager and other third parties that provide data interchange services. We maintain and limit the use of that information to the Opt-in permission you have provided at the time you use the tool.

Healthtipsbook does not knowingly engage in business with a company that uses Spyware. We do not provide Users with downloadable software that collects or uses any PII or PHI without full disclosure and Opt-in consent.

Upon authorization by your health plan, healthcare provider or employer, Healthtipsbook Health Manager may send your Personal Health Information in a form that cannot be used to personally identify or contact you to a data warehouse for analysis of health trends and effectiveness of health programs. We require these data warehouses to agree that they will not attempt to make this information personally identifiable, such as by combining it with other databases.

Sponsors or advertisers on Healthtipsbook may use their own Cookies, Web Beacons or other online tracking technologies in the banner advertisements served on Healthtipsbook and in emails, special promotions or newsletters we send you. Some advertisers use companies other than Healthtipsbook to serve their ads and to monitor users' responses to ads, and these companies ("Ad Servers") may also collect Non-Personal Information through the use of Cookies or Web Beacons on our Web site. In certain situations, information collection may be facilitated by momentarily directing your browser to the Web site of an Ad Server or other third party acting on behalf of the sponsor, partner, or advertiser before re-directing your browser to its selected destination (e.g., back to Healthtipsbook to show the ad, or to the advertiser's website); this re-direction process will not be apparent to you.

We do not control these third parties' use of cookies or Web Beacons, or how they manage the non-personal information they gather through them. However, we do require sponsors, advertisers and Ad Servers who collect cookie or web beacon information through our Web site to agree that they will not collect any Personally Identifiable Information from our site without your consent. They have promised us they will not link any non-personal cookie or web beacon information collected by them on our site to Personally Identifiable Information they or others collect in other ways or from other sites except as may be described in connection with a particular program. For example, in connection with "Ad links" furnished by Yahoo, non-personal information sent by your browser to Yahoo when you click on a sponsored link or submit a query may be used by Yahoo as described in its privacy policy. In addition, Healthtipsbook's Advertising Policy is posted on our Web site and will provide additional detail about our relationship with advertisers and the companies that serve ads. You should review the privacy policy of other sites you visit or link to from our site to understand how these other sites use cookies and how they use the information they collect through the use of cookies or web beacons on their own sites. Certain Ad Servers allow you to prevent them from collecting data through the use of cookies. In order to do so, you must Opt-out of such data collection with each individual site. Currently, you can Opt-out of Cookies for several Ad Servers by visiting the Network Advertising Initiative gateway Opt-out site. This website will also allow you to review the Ad Server's privacy policies.

You can also find additional information and resources about how to opt out of advertising and related cookies by visiting the World Privacy Forum's Site.

Except as described in this Privacy Policy or as specifically agreed to by you, Healthtipsbook will not disclose any Personally Identifiable or Personal Health Information it gathers from you on our website. We may only release Personally Identifiable or Personal Health Information to third parties: (1) to comply with valid legal requirements such as a law, regulation, search warrant, subpoena or court order; or (2) in special cases, such as in response to a physical threat to you or others, to protect property or defend or assert legal rights. In the event that we are legally compelled to disclose your Personally Identifiable or Personal Health Information to a third party, we will attempt to notify you unless doing so would violate the law or court order. In addition, we may disclose Personal Information as described below.

Healthtipsbook operations and maintenance contractors sometimes have limited access to your Personally Identifiable Information in the course of providing products or services to Healthtipsbook. These contractors include vendors and suppliers that provide us with technology, services, and/or content for the operation and maintenance of our Web site. Unless you have Opted-out of receiving emails and newsletters from Healthtipsbook, these contractors also may have access to your email address to send newsletters or special promotions to you on our behalf or to send emails to you for purposes such as conducting market research on our behalf. Access to your Personally Identifiable Information by these contractors is limited to the information reasonably necessary for the contractor to perform its limited function for Healthtipsbook. We also contractually require that our operations and maintenance contractors 1) protect the privacy of your Personally Identifiable Information consistent with this Privacy Policy, and 2) not use or disclose your Personally Identifiable Information for any purpose other than providing us with products and services as required by law.

Certain content and services offered to you through our website are served on Web sites hosted and operated by a company other than Healthtipsbook ("Third Party Contractor Web sites"). Healthtipsbook does not disclose your Personally Identifiable Information to these Third Party Contractor Web sites without your consent, but you should be aware that any information you disclose once you access these other Web sites is not subject to this Privacy Policy. Healthtipsbook does not endorse and is not responsible for the privacy practices of these Third Party Contractor Web sites. You should review the privacy policy posted on the other Web site to understand how that Third Party Contractor Website collects and uses your Personally Identifiable Information. Healthtipsbook makes an effort to make it obvious to you when you leave our website and enter a Third Party Contractor Web site, either by requiring you to click on a link or by notifying you on the site before you visit the third party site. In addition, if you see a phrase such as "Powered by" or "in association with" followed by the name of a company other than Healthtipsbook, then you are on a Web site hosted by a company other than Healthtipsbook.

Healthtipsbook also provides links to sites provided by Third Party Contractor Websites that have business arrangements with Healthtipsbook to pay commissions based on sales of products or services generated through Healthtipsbook. An example of this would be "Ad links" from Yahoo on our Search pages.

Healthtipsbook is a contractor and provides co-branded content and services to Channel Partner Web sites hosted and operated by companies other than Healthtipsbook Channel Partner Websites. You can only access these co-branded content and services only through the Channel Partner Web site, and usually from the health section of these other Web sites. The co-branded Healthtipsbook pages that you may access through a Channel Partner Web site may have different registration processes and opportunities for information collection, and Personally Identifiable Information that you provide on these pages may be shared with the Channel Partners. Healthtipsbook does not share Personal Health Information with Channel Partner Web sites without your consent. Each of these co-branded Healthtipsbook Web sites has its own privacy policy posted on that site, which explains what information is disclosed by Healthtipsbook to the Channel Partner and vice versa. If you visit one of these co-branded Healthtipsbook sites, please read the privacy policy that is posted on that site, as well as the individual privacy policy of the Channel Partner Web site.

In addition to the Third Party Contractor Web sites that you may access as described above, for your convenience there are links to Third Party Web sites operated by companies that are not affiliated with the Healthtipsbook Web site and that do not have contracts to provide content or services through the Healthtipsbook Web site. These links may be found in advertisements, referenced within content, or placed beside the names or logos of sponsors. Healthtipsbook does not disclose your Personal Information to these Third Party Websites without obtaining your consent. Healthtipsbook does not endorse and is not responsible for the privacy practices of these sites. If you choose to link to one of these Third Party Web sites, you should review the privacy policy posted on this other website to understand how that Third Party Web site collects and uses your Personally Identifiable Information.

Healthtipsbook may provide Aggregate Information to third parties. For example, we might inform third parties regarding the number of users of our website and the activities they conduct while on our site. We might also inform a pharmaceutical company (that may or may not be an advertiser on our site) that "30% of our users live east of the Mississippi" or that "25% of our users have tried alternative medicine." Depending on the circumstances, we may or may not charge third parties for this Aggregate Information. We require parties with whom we share Aggregate Information to agree that they will not attempt to make this information personally identifiable, such as by combining it with other databases.

Here are some of the security procedures that Healthtipsbook uses to protect your privacy:

Healthtipsbook Health Manager provides additional protection for your Personal Health Information as follows:

Despite Healthtipsbook's efforts to protect your Personally Identifiable Information and Personal Health Information, there is always some risk that an unauthorized third party may find a way around our security systems or that transmissions of your information over the Internet may be intercepted.

Healthtipsbook tools that collect and store self-reported data allow you to correct, update or review information you have submitted by going back to the specific tool, logging-in and making the desired changes. Healthtipsbook may store user submitted data (PII and/or PHI) in an active database for a period of six (6) months. After six (6) months, user submitted data, including PII and/or PHI will be held in an active database or on an inactive back-up medium for a period of not less than six (6) years.

If you have a complaint or problem, please use our Customer Support Form (Contact Us.) Our customer service department will forward your complaint to the appropriate internal Healthtipsbook department for a response or resolution. We try to answer every email within 48 business hours, but may not always be able to do so. If you want to (1) delete your Personally Identifiable Information from our systems, (2) update the Personally Identifiable Information that you have provided to us, or (3) change your preferences with respect to marketing contacts or other activities, select the privacy option on our Contact Us form.

If you do not receive adequate resolution of a privacy related problem, you may write to Healthtipsbook's Privacy Office at:

Healthtipsbook
call: 1-888-Healthtipsbook

We will notify you within 30 days of receipt of your letter to confirm your personal identifiers have been removed.

Upon your request, we will delete your Personally Identifiable or Personal Health Information from our active databases and where feasible from our back-up media. You should be aware that it is not technologically possible to remove each and every record of the information you have provided to Healthtipsbook from our servers.

If you have contacted Healthtipsbook about a privacy related concern and you do not believe that the problem has been addressed, you may file a complaint with TRUSTe. You can also visit TRUSTe's Watchdog site at www.truste.org/pvr.php?page=complaint. Please bear in mind that the TRUSTe Watchdog service is for the Healthtipsbook.com or Healthtipsbook Health Manager site and only information collected by Healthtipsbook.com or Healthtipsbook Health Manager should be reported in a TRUSTe Watchdog complaint.

Personally Identifiable Information - We will inform you if a material change is made to the Privacy Policy, which means a change that expands the permissible uses or disclosures of Personally Identifiable Information allowed by the prior version of the Privacy Policy. Your continued use of the Healthtipsbook Web site will indicate acceptance of the changes. You may of course choose to Opt-out of continuing to use the Healthtipsbook Web site. Please exit the site immediately if you do not agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy or any revised policy.

Personal Health Information - We will inform you if a material change in the Privacy Policy is made that involves the use of your Personal Health Information, and your express Opt-in authorization will be requested. If you choose to not accept the new privacy policy, then the current privacy policy conditions will remain in effect, so long as Healthtipsbook Health Manager continues to make the functionality available. Healthtipsbook reserves the right to discontinue or limit functionality in all its products including Healthtipsbook and Healthtipsbook Health Manager.

Non-Significant Changes - Healthtipsbook may make non-significant changes to the Privacy Policy that do not affect Personally Identifiable Information or Personal Health Information. For these instances, Healthtipsbook may not notify you of such non-significant changes.

If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes to this privacy statement, the home page, and other places appropriate throughout our site so that you are aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it.

We reserve the right to modify this privacy statement at any time, so please review it frequently. If we make material changes to this policy, we will notify you here, by email, and by means of a notice on our home page.

aggregate information or data: As a website gathers individual pieces of Non-Personal Information (see definition below) from its users, it may combine similar data from many or all the users of the website into one big "batch". For example, the site may add up the total number of people in Peoria, Illinois, (but not their names) who are seeking information about weight loss and compare that to the number of people in Petaluma, California seeking the same information.

This sort of statistical information is called aggregate data because it reflects the habits and characteristics of a large group of anonymous people. Web sites may use aggregate data or share it with their business partners so that the information and services they provide best meet the needs of the users. Aggregate data also helps advertisers and sponsors on the Web know how effectively they are reaching and meeting the needs of their target audience.

browser: Short for web browser, a browser is a software application used to locate and display web (Internet) pages. The most popular browsers are AOL, FireFox, Microsoft Internet Explorer, and Netscape Navigator. In addition, most modern browsers can present multimedia information, including sound and video, though they require plug-ins for some formats.

Ideally, the password should be something that nobody could guess. In practice, many people choose a password that is easy to remember, such as their name or their initials. This is one reason it is relatively easy to break into many computer systems.

If other pieces of information are linked to PII, they also become PII. For example, if you use a nickname to chat online and give out your real name while chatting, your nickname becomes PII when linked with other PII.

Usernames are also required to post a reply on message boards, use certain Healthtipsbook Tools and online services such as Healthtipsbook Health Manager.
