Policies
Information Security:
Information Security:
We maintain appropriate physical, electronic, and administrative security standards and procedures to safeguard our data and systems. Our employees are educated on the importance of our privacy and security policies and must comply with them. Employees are permitted to access and use only that personal and proprietary information they need to perform their job duties.
Information Processing:
We have procedures to maintain the integrity and confidentiality of information while in our care.
- When we receive personal information from customers or other data controllers, we rely on their obligations to provide individuals with any required notice and consent for the intended purpose or we obtain additional consent/authorization as necessary.
-
When we collect personal information directly from individuals on behalf of a customer, we will provide such individuals with:
- Notice about the intended use and disclosure of their information;
- choice before using or disclosing their information for any other purpose; and
- the ability to access and correct their information where required by law
De-Identified Data:
We remove, encode, or encrypt individual identifiers from personal information to the fullest extent possible consistent with its intended use.
We will not use personal information for any purpose unless:
- The activity is permitted by law;
- The activity promotes health and well-being; and
- Individuals are given the opportunity to "opt-out" of the program or to "opt-in" to the program where required by law or by the customer or data controller.
In addition: We will not distribute information or solicitations to consumers enrolled in government health care programs for purposes other than assisting a customer in carrying out treatment, payment, or health care operations, unless approved in advance by the sponsoring government agency and requested by the individual without any solicitation on our part.
We will not solicit or provide information to consumers based on their status with or at risk for mental health, substance use, or HIV/AIDS, unless we are acting on behalf of a customer who has obtained appropriate consent/authorization or is otherwise legally authorized to make such contact, or when approved by an institutional review board or privacy board for research purposes in accordance with applicable law.
Information Disclosure:
We will not disclose personal or proprietary information, which we obtain in the course of providing products and services to our customers, to any third party except: (1) as required by law, or (2) consistent with applicable law and our obligations to the customer, data controller and/or individual from whom we received the information, as follows:
-
We may disclose personal information to a service provider to perform a specific service on our behalf, but only when consistent with this
policy and subject to a contract that:
- Prohibits them from using the information for any other purpose;
- Requires them to conform to our privacy and security obligations; and
- Allows for an audit of their compliance.
- We will not share one customer's information with another customer, except at the customer's direction or as part of de-identified aggregated norms. At the direction of a customer, such as an employee benefit plan sponsor, we will disclose the customer's information to its other service providers, from its service providers back to the customer, or to other entities participating with the customer in an organized health care arrangement. The other entities may also be our customers.
