DiabetesConsult.com is committed to protecting your privacy.

HIPAA: We comply with all HIPPA privacy requirements. The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) is legislation enacted by the federal government, which along with other compliance requirements, defines guidelines for privacy and security of patient and member personal health information. We follow the rigid HIPAA rules for our customers’ confidentiality protection, especially the confidential nature of our members’ protected health information. We comply with the privacy requirements of HIPAA, as well as other laws aimed at safeguarding privacy. HIPAA regulations limit how, when, and where protected health information is shared.

PHI: Medical information, as well as demographic information about you that we collect as part of administering your health care benefits, is “Protected Health Information,” or PHI. PHI contains “individually identifiable health information.” This includes health care information and demographic details such as an email’s address, gender, or age. Medical histories, for example, contain individually identifiable health information. PHI is individually identifiable health information communicated in any form-electronic, written, or spoken.

Information We Collect

We recognize your right to confidentiality and are committed to protecting your privacy. We use the information that we collect on our site to provide you with our service’s superior experience.

Agents – We may agree with other companies or individuals to perform functions on our behalf. These functions may include sending promotional e-mails on our behalf to such companies’ customers, serving advertisements on our behalf, analyzing data, providing marketing assistance, processing credit card payments, and fulfilling and delivering orders. These companies and individuals will have access to the information necessary to perform their functions. They will not be allowed to use the information for any other purpose and will be bound to the terms of our privacy policy. We may share non-personal, summary, or aggregate customer data with partners and other third parties.

Business Transfers – We may buy or sell stores or assets. In such transactions, customer information is usually treated as one of the transferred business assets. Should DiabetesConsult.com or substantially all of its assets be sold, customer information will be one of the transferred business assets.

Security

When you pay online, your personal information and credit card information are encrypted using SSL encryption technology before being sent over the Internet, making it virtually impossible for your information to be stolen or intercepted while being transferred to DiabetesConsult.com. Your credit card information is always stored in encrypted form in a database away from our Web site database, so it isn’t connected to the Internet and is therefore safe from hackers. For maximum security, we use third-party security software SSL.

Cookies

To personalize your experience at DiabetesConsult.com, we may use a feature on your Internet browser called a cookie. Cookies are small files that your Web browser places on your computer’s hard drive. We use cookies to let us know that you are a prior customer and retrieve certain information previously provided to us not to re-enter this information every time you shop at the site. Cookies also let us know how you found us (e.g., through a particular website or advertisement). Cookies are not used to access information entered on the secure server. This information can only be accessed when you enter your name and password. If you choose to configure your browser to remove or reject DiabetesConsult.com cookies, you will not be able to make purchases from the DiabetesConsult.com site.

Web Beacons

We may also contract with third-party companies from time to time to help us better provide relevant products and services to you. Some of these companies use Web beacons (also known as action tags or single-pixel gifs). A Web beacon is a transparent image placed on a Web page and sends a signal when a user has visited that page. A Web beacon does not contain any personal information.

Unsolicited E-mail (SPAM)

Your privacy is essential to us. Be assured that, by our Privacy Policy, DiabetesConsult.com does not sell or distribute our customer list to third parties. You should be aware. However, unscrupulous marketers can sometimes ‘harvest’ your email address directly from your computer or another person’s address book or even obtain your email address through programs that automatically search web pages and email traffic for email addresses. Please note that all email originates from DiabetesConsult.com will display the DiabetesConsult.com logo (HTML emails) or contain the theDiabetesConsult.com copyright notice (text emails). If you receive an unsolicited email that you believe is connected with DiabetesConsult.com in any way, please forward the e-mail (as an enclosure) to Support@DiabetesConsult.com, and we will investigate.

Color/Product description

We have made every effort to display our products’ colors that appear at the Site as accurately as possible.
