THE POLICY
Protecting your privacy and your information is a top priority. We have
taken careful measures to secure your information. Our secure server software
encrypts information, ensuring that all Internet transactions from your PC to
our servers remain private (unless sent by an unsecured means, such as e-mail).
Use of this encryption is facilitated when the user selects 'Secure Login' or
'Secure Registration' from the home page. This privacy policy will advise you
about how we protect your personal information. Please read this policy carefully.
We may need to change this policy from time to time, so you should refer back
to this policy regularly. This policy applies to your use of all of the sites
and services owned or operated by LifeCare and any other site that we may own
or operate currently or in the future (collectively, the "LifeCare Sites").
Unless we say otherwise, all references to the LifeCare Sites in this policy
include all such sites. This policy does not apply to any sites other than the
LifeCare sites.
USER PERSONAL INFORMATION
LifeCare shall use its best efforts not to 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. However,
we will release specific information about you to comply with any valid legal
process such as a search warrant, subpoena, statute or court order. We will
also release specific information in special cases, such as if there is an attempted
breach of the security of the LifeCare Sites, or a physical threat to you or
others. While LifeCare maintains a secure site, you should know that computer
use may be monitored by third parties such as network administrators, employers,
etc., and thus we can not guarantee the security of information you post online.
You disclose such information at your own risk.
PRIVACY OF CHILDREN
LifeCare realizes that children under the age of 13 may not understand all the
provisions of our policy or be able to make thoughtful decisions about the choices
made available. We urge all parents to participate in their children's exploration
of the Internet and any online services, and to teach their children about protecting
their personal information while online. Therefore, LifeCare will not allow
users under the age of 13 to use the site without the consent of their parent
or guardian.
THIRD PARTY CONTENT PROVIDERS/LINKS
Users will find contents and products of other companies or organizations on
our sites and/or links to the sites and services of our suppliers, licensors
or other third parties. While we make efforts to monitor the sites or services,
we do not control the contents or links that appear on these sites. We are not
responsible for the privacy practices or the content of such sites. These sites
and services may have their own privacy policies and customer service policies,
or no policy (policies) at all. These sites or services, including their contents
and links, may be constantly changing. We encourage you to review the privacy
policies of any third party sites or services before providing any of them with
your personal information.
USES OF COOKIES
LifeCare provides you with the opportunity to volunteer personal information
while interacting with the many features of our site. In addition, visitor information
may be collected automatically as you navigate through our sites. Personal and/or
visitor information can be anything that identifies you or your accounts. These
"cookies" of information may be used by us to help us manage the site and provide
functionality to you, but we do not use this information for direct marketing
or solicitation of business and do not provide this information to third parties
except as required by law.
CORRECTING AND REMOVING YOUR INFORMATION
If you would like to correct any personal information you have provided to us
or request that we remove your information from our records, e-mail us at help@lifecare.com
with the correction or a request for a more secure way to communicate with us.
ACCEPTANCE OF TERMS
By using any of the LifeCare Sites, you signify your acceptance of our Privacy
Policy. If you do not agree to this policy, please do not use our sites. Your
continued use of the LifeCare Sites following the posting of changes to these
terms will mean that you accept those changes.
