Our Policy
Welcome to the web site (the “Site”) of RubiconMD, Inc. (“RubiconMD”, “we”, “us” and/or “our”). This Site is operated by RubiconMD and has been created to provide information about RubiconMD and our medical information and consultation platform, mobile application, and related services, (together with the Site, the “Services”) to our Service visitors (“you”, “your”). This Privacy Policy sets forth RubiconMD’s policy with respect to information including personally identifiable data (“Personal Data”) and other information that is collected from visitors to the Site and Services. By accessing or using the Services, you acknowledge that you have read, understand, and agree to be bound by this Privacy Policy and our terms of service. If you do not agree to these terms, do not use the Services.
Information We Collect:
When you interact with us through the Services, we may collect Personal Data and other information from you, as further described below:
Personal Data That You Provide Through the Services: We collect Personal Data, such as email addresses, personal, financial, or demographic information from you when you voluntarily provide us with such information, such as (but not limited to) when you contact us with inquiries, fill out on-line forms, respond to one of our surveys, respond to advertising or promotional material, register for access to the Services or use certain Services. Wherever RubiconMD collects Personal Data we make an effort to provide a link to this Privacy Policy.
By voluntarily providing us with Personal Data, you are consenting to our use of it in accordance with this Privacy Policy. If you provide Personal Data to the Services, you acknowledge and agree that such Personal Data may be transferred from your current location to the offices and servers of RubiconMD and the authorized third parties referred to herein located in the United States.
Other Information:
Non-Identifiable Data: When you interact with RubiconMD through the Services, we receive and store certain personally non-identifiable information. Such information, which is collected passively using various technologies, cannot presently be used to specifically identify you. RubiconMD may store such information itself or such information may be included in databases owned and maintained by RubiconMD affiliates, agents or service providers. The Services may use such information and pool it with other information to track, for example, the total number of visitors to our Site, the number of visitors to each page of our Site, and the domain names of our visitors’ Internet service providers. It is important to note that no Personal Data is available or used in this process.
In operating the Services, we may use a technology called “cookies.” A cookie is a piece of information that the computer that hosts our Services gives to your browser when you access the Services. Our cookies help provide additional functionality to the Services and help us analyze Services usage more accurately. For instance, our Site may set a cookie on your browser that allows you to access the Services without needing to remember and then enter a password more than once during a visit to the Site. In all cases in which we use cookies, we will not collect Personal Data except with your permission. On most web browsers, you will find a “help” section on the toolbar. Please refer to this section for information on how to receive notification when you are receiving a new cookie and how to turn cookies off. We recommend that you leave cookies turned on because they allow you to take advantage of some of the Service features.
Aggregated Personal Data: In an ongoing effort to better understand and serve the users of the Services, RubiconMD often conducts research on its customer demographics, interests and behavior based on the Personal Data and other information provided to us. This research may be compiled and analyzed on an aggregate basis, and RubiconMD may share this aggregate data with its affiliates, agents and business partners. This aggregate information does not identify you personally. RubiconMD may also disclose aggregated user statistics in order to describe our services to current and prospective business partners, and to other third parties for other lawful purposes.
Third-Party Analytics: We may allow third party service providers to use cookies, tracking pixels, identifiers for mobile devices, or similar technologies to collect information about your browsing activities over time and across different websites during and/or following your use of the Services that do not require user authentication. These companies, such as Google Analytics (www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/) may use non-personally identifiable information about your visits to other websites, together with non-personally identifiable information about your purchases and interests from other online and offline sources, to provide ads about goods and services of interest to you. The use and collection of information by these service providers is governed by their respective privacy statements and thus is not covered by this Privacy Policy.
Our Use of Your Personal Data and Other Information:
RubiconMD uses the Personal Data you provide in a manner that is consistent with this Privacy Policy. If you provide Personal Data for a certain reason, we may use the Personal Data in connection with the reason for which it was provided. For instance, if you contact us by email, we will use the Personal Data you provide to answer your question or resolve your problem. Also, if you provide Personal Data in order to obtain access to the Services, we will use your Personal Data to provide you with access to such services and to monitor your use of such services. RubiconMD and its subsidiaries and affiliates (the “Related Companies”) may also use your Personal Data and other personally non-identifiable information collected through the Services to help us improve the content and functionality of the Services, to better understand our users and to improve the Services. RubiconMD and its affiliates may use this information to contact you in the future to tell you about services we believe will be of interest to you. This includes contacting you for marketing and promotional purposes by various means, including email, mail, and telephone. If we do so, each marketing communication we send you will contain instructions permitting you to “opt-out” of receiving future marketing communications. Operational and other non-marketing communications regarding use of the Services will not contain “opt out” instructions. In addition, if at any time you wish not to receive any future marketing communications or you wish to have your name deleted from our mailing lists, please contact us as at support@rubiconmd.com.
If RubiconMD intends on using any Personal Data in any manner that is not consistent with this Privacy Policy, you will be informed of such anticipated use prior to or at the time at which the Personal Data is collected.
