Online tracking opt-out. There are a number of ways to limit online tracking, which we have summarized below:
- Blocking cookies in your browser. Most browsers let you remove or reject cookies, including cookies used for interest-based advertising. To do this, follow the instructions in your browser settings. Many browsers accept cookies by default until you change your settings. For more information about cookies, including how to see what cookies have been set on your device and how to manage and delete them, visit allaboutcookies.org.
- Using privacy plug-ins or browsers. You can block our websites from setting cookies used for interest-based ads by using a browser with privacy features, like Brave, or installing browser plugins like Privacy Badger, Ghostery, or uBlock Origin, and configuring them to block third party cookies/trackers. You can also opt out of Google Analytics by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
- Advertising industry opt out tools. You can also use these opt out options to limit use of your information for interest-based advertising by participating companies:
- Digital Advertising Alliance for Websites: aboutads.info and https://www.aboutads.info/appchoices (for mobile opt outs);
- Network Advertising Initiative: networkadvertising.org
- Platform Opt-Outs. You can also use the opt-out features offered by third-party advertising platforms, such as:
LinkedIn opt-out
Google opt-out
Note that because these opt out mechanisms are specific to the device or browser on which they are exercised, you will need to opt out on every browser and device that you use.
Do Not Track. Some Internet browsers may be configured to send “Do Not Track” signals to the online services that you visit. We currently do not respond to “Do Not Track” signals. To find out more about “Do Not Track,” please visit http://www.allaboutdnt.com.
Consumer Health Data.
While we do not actively collect consumer health data, if you or a third party authorized by you voluntarily chooses to share with us consumer health data that is not otherwise regulated under HIPAA, this section applies to that data to the extent applicable U.S. state consumer health privacy laws apply. Such data may include information about health conditions, treatment, diagnoses, seeking health care services, and related inferences. We collect, use, and share this data with your consent, as reasonably necessary to provide the services you request, or as otherwise permitted or required by applicable law. Subject to those requirements, we may disclose it to service providers, professional advisors, government authorities, and business transferees.
Depending on applicable law, you may request confirmation of whether we collect, share, or sell your consumer health data; access to or deletion of that data; and withdrawal of consent to its collection or sharing. To exercise these rights or appeal a denied request, contact us as provided in the “How to Contact Us” section. If your appeal is denied, you may submit a complaint to the appropriate regulatory enforcement authority. These rights may be limited in accordance with applicable law, including legal retention requirements. We will not discriminate against you for exercising these rights.
Data Security
We employ a number of technical, organizational and physical safeguards designed to protect the personal information we collect. However, no security measures are failsafe and we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information.
Data Retention
The length of time we retain personal information will be determined based upon the following criteria: the length of time your personal information remains relevant; the length of time it is reasonable to keep records to demonstrate that we have fulfilled our duties and obligations; any limitation periods within which claims might be made; any retention periods prescribed by law or recommended by regulators, professional bodies or associations; the type of contract we have with you, and our business interest in keeping such information as stated in this Privacy Policy.
Job Applicants
When you apply for one of our open positions, we collect the information that you provide in connection with your job application. This includes but is not limited to business and personal contact information, professional credentials and skills, educational and work history, and other information that may be included in a resume or that you may provide during the interview process. This may also include demographic or diversity information that you voluntarily provide. We may also conduct background checks and receive related information. We also collect personal information from other sources where relevant for your application, such as employment research firms, recruiters, identity verification services, and information that you make publicly available on websites or social media platforms (for example, LinkedIn).
Throughout the recruitment process, we may supplement your personal information in connection with the assessment of your application. For example, we may record the views of those considering your application about your suitability for the role for which you have applied and retain interview notes. If you accept an offer from us, your personal information will be incorporated into and used as part of your employee record.
We use applicants’ information to facilitate our recruitment activities, process employment applications including evaluating candidates and monitoring recruitment statistics. We may also use and disclose applicants’ information to improve our Services and for the compliance and protection purposes described above.
Children
The Services are not intended for use by children. While we do offer pediatric hospice care, any personal information collected in connection with pediatric hospice care is not subject to this Privacy Policy. If we learn that we have collected personal information through our Services from a child without the consent of the child’s parent or guardian as required by law, we will delete it.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We reserve the right to modify this Privacy Policy at any time. If we make material changes to this Privacy Policy, we will notify you by updating the date of this Privacy Policy and posting it on the Services.
