What type of information does South Beach Prosthetics collect?
There are two basic types of information that South Beach Prosthetics might collect: personal and non-personal information.
Personal Information: As you browse the South Beach Prosthetics website, you may opt to provide South Beach Prosthetics with personal information such as your name, address, phone number, or email address. South Beach Prosthetics may also collect information you communicate with us, including when you contact South Beach Prosthetics through our various online, phone, chat, or application channels for information or assistance. We may record your call or maintain a transcript of the communication for training and quality assurance purposes.
Non-Personal Information: South Beach Prosthetics may collect non-personal information from you such as an internet protocol address (typically referred to as an “IP address,” and defined below) and browsing variables (like your web browser, referral links, or how much time you spent at our website). Although this information may be used to identify you, South Beach Prosthetics typically uses this information to improve your experience and the experience of other visitors to our website. South Beach Prosthetics may use cookies to collect this type of information.
What’s a cookie? A cookie is a small data file that individual websites store on your computer’s hard drive – if your web browser permits. The website can later retrieve that cookie to let us know you’ve been to our site before, among other things. Cookies typically make your use of the site easier, make the site run more smoothly, and help us to maintain a secure site. Many websites use cookies. You are free to decline our cookies if your browser permits, but some parts of our site may not work properly if you do that.
What’s an IP address? An IP address is a unique number, assigned to each and every computer and other device on the Internet. Your computer, your phone, your e-reader, and other electronic devices, are all assigned IP addresses.
When does South Beach Prosthetics collect this information?
We collect non-personal information from you as you use any of the pages on our website. We collect personal information from you only when you specifically provide it to us or connect with us through one of our various online, phone, chat, or application channels for information or assistance.
How does South Beach Prosthetics use the information we collect?
We might, for example, ask for your information if you contact a local South Beach Prosthetics representative or if you upload a success story to our website. Providing your contract information will help South Beach Prosthetics in providing services to you, such as providing you with information, resources, and support services that you may request.
We may also use your personal and non-personal information in the following ways:
- Entering your information into our databases for internal recordkeeping, reporting, and data analysis.
- Communicating with you to obtain your input, provide information about our events, or promote our services.
- Improving our services.
- Customizing our website according to your interests.
- Sharing information with third parties (as listed below) who help us manage our website and databases, and who assist us with our marketing efforts.
- Sharing information with third parties as required by law, or as part of a legal process.
Third Parties: South Beach Prosthetics uses third parties such as Google, Microsoft/Bing, LinkedIn, Pinterest, X, and Meta to monitor certain pages of our website for the purpose of reporting web traffic, statistics, advertisement “click-throughs,” and other activities on our website. No personally identifiable data is transferred to these third parties by us. Where authorized by us, these third parties may use cookies and/or other monitoring technologies to compile anonymous statistics about our website visitors.
Non-personal Information: We also reserve the right to use non-personal information, such as an IP address, to identify a user when we believe it is necessary to protect the compelling interests of our websites, the patients we serve, their family members, our employees, or others, or to comply with laws, court orders, or law enforcement requests.
Does South Beach Prosthetics share my information?
South Beach Prosthetics may share your personal and non-personal information as discussed herein. We do not sell or rent the personal information of our general website users for profit.
Does South Beach Prosthetics track my online activity while I’m not on the South Beach Prosthetics site?
Cookies and other technology may be used to track non-personal information about your web-browsing habits. For example, if a significant portion of our visitors all browse to the same website immediately after visiting us, we may use this information to improve your experience at our site.
South Beach Prosthetics respects web browser “do not track” signals and other mechanisms that provide you the ability to opt out of having your personal information or online activities collected. But remember, unless you have selected the “do not track” function in your web browser, third parties (not just South Beach Prosthetics) may collect personal information about your online activities over time and across different websites.
How does South Beach Prosthetics secure my personal information?
South Beach Prosthetics is committed to ensuring that your personal information is secure. Your trust in us is important, so we have put in place physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect. Records containing personal information are stored at secure facilities; our websites use SSL (a tool used to verify the legitimacy of a website); and our employees are provided training on how to treat your data securely.
Will South Beach Prosthetics contact me?
