Internet Privacy Policy

We respect your privacy interests. We operate this site by these principles:

You may use the SRN & PHH web site without disclosing personally identifiable information. We want to be clear that we will not obtain such information about you unless you choose to submit it to us. For example, if you email us your comments, that identifies your email address. If you request an appointment with a physician, a limited number of hospital administrators and healthcare providers will see this information and use it to arrange care where appropriate.

We have taken reasonable steps to ensure the integrity and confidentiality of personally identifiable information that you may provide. You should understand, however, that electronic transmissions via the Internet are not necessarily secure from interception and we cannot guarantee the security or confidentiality of such transmissions.

The web server of the SRN & PHH web site collects and saves the default information customarily logged by World Wide Web server software. Our logs contain the following information for each request: date and time, originating IP address and domain name (the unique address assigned to your internet service provider's computer that connects to the internet), object requested, and completion status of the request.

Except for authorized law enforcement investigations or other valid legal processes, we will not share any information we receive with any parties outside of Partners.
