Privacy Policy/Data Protection

This Privacy Notice (“Notice”) applies to personal information PTS Diagnostics, Inc. (collectively, “PTS Diagnostics” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects. This Notice also covers rights and choices related to your personal information.

Active Information Collection

We actively collect information from you both by asking you specific questions and by permitting you to communicate directly with us via email, feedback forms, and/or chat rooms. Some of the information that you submit may be personal information (that is, information that can be uniquely identified with you, such as your full name, address, email address, phone number, and so on). We may also ask you to submit information in order for you to benefit from the specified features (such as newsletter subscriptions, tips/pointers, order processing) or to participate in a particular activity (such as sweepstakes or other promotions).

Passive Information Collection

As you navigate through our website or content, certain information can be passively collected (that is, gathered without your actively providing the information) using various technologies and means, such as Internet Protocol addresses, cookies, Internet tags, and navigational data collection. We collect Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. An IP Address is a number assigned to your computer by your Internet service provider, so you can access the internet and is generally considered to be non-personal information, because in most cases an IP address is dynamic (changing each time you connect to the Internet), rather than static (unique to a particular user’s computer). We use your IP address to diagnose problems with our server, report aggregate information, determine the fastest route for your computer to use in connecting to our website or content, and administer and improve the website or content.

A cookie is a bit of information that a website sends to your web browser that helps the site remember information about you and your preferences.

Internet tags (also known as single-pixel GIFs, clear GIFs, invisible GIFs, and 1-by-1 GIFs) are smaller than cookies and tell the website server information such as the IP address and browser type related to the visitor’s computer. We do not use Internet tags.

Navigational data (“log files,” “server logs,” and “clickstream” data) are used for system management, to improve our content, market research purposes, and to communicate information to visitors. We use navigational data.

Online Tracking

We use “cookies” to track your access across third-party websites to provide you with targeted advertising for our products that you may be interested in. If you receive targeted advertising from us, you will be provided with the ability to opt-out from future communications. We will not disclose any online tracking information outside of PTS Diagnostics or PTS Diagnostics Affiliates unless otherwise specified in this Privacy Notice. We will not sell information obtained from any online tracking to any third-party. You can block our tracking by ensuring that your internet browser is set to “Do Not Track”. PTS Diagnostics will honor any “Do Not Track” signal received from your browser.

HIPAA

PTS Diagnostics is not a “covered entity” under the HIPAA privacy and security rules, however, in some instances we may be considered a “business associate” under the HIPAA privacy and security rules. Where we act as a business associate, please review the privacy policies of your healthcare provider or other covered entity to whom you have provided your protected health information, as that term is defined under HIPAA.

Data We Collect

As outlined above, we collect data about you in different ways. For example, we collect data:

  • Directly from you. This includes when you sign up to get our emails or contact us.
  • This includes through cookies, server logs, and other tools on our website or apps.
  • From other sources. These can include our affiliates, vendors, social media, publicly available sources, and other companies.

We keep your personal information for only as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes in this Notice unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. This includes the purposes of satisfying legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. To determine the appropriate retention period for personal information, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the data. We also weigh the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of the data, the purposes for which we obtained the data and whether we can meet those purposes through other means, as well as applicable legal requirements.

The following are a few examples of our collection and use of data:

In addition, we may disclose your personal information to third parties, located in the United States, but only:
