2. Collection of Personal Information from the AmeriHealth Caritas Foundation Website
Through the Website, the Foundation and/or its third-party business partners may collect and/or track:

(1) the home server domain names, email addresses, type of computer or mobile device used, IP address, files downloaded, search engine used, operating system employed, mobile device telephone number, and type of web browser of Website users;

To better serve User to the Website, the Foundation may use "cookies" to enhance a visitor's browsing experience. Cookies are simple text files stored by a user's browser that provide a way to distinguish among users. The cookies placed on a user's computer by using the Website do not contain personally identifiable information. A user can refuse a cookie or delete the cookies file from his or her computer at any time by using any one of a number of widely available methods.

When a user performs a search within the Website, the Foundation may record information identifying the user or linking the user to the search performed. The Foundation may also record limited information for every search request and may then use that information to solve any technical problems with the Website and to calculate overall usage statistics.

The Foundation may collect certain information about users that is either in aggregate form or not personally identifiable, such as aggregate information about Website usage, and the Foundation may share such de-identified information with third parties.

3. Collection of Other Personal Information from the Foundation Website
Through the Website, the Foundation may collect personal information provided by a user, such as information contained in questions submitted through the "Contact Us" feature. The Foundation may also post forms (such as grant applications) to the Website that may call for the collection of personal information; personal information would be collected from these forms only if the user completed and submitted the form through the Website.

4. Use of Personal Information Collected
Personal information collected by the Foundation may be used by the Foundation for many purposes, including: editorial and feedback; statistical analysis of users' usage; product development; content improvement; and/or customization of the content and layout of the Website.

Aggregate information on users' home servers may be used for internal purposes or provided to third parties. Individually identifiable information, such as names, postal and email addresses, phone numbers, and other personal information that users voluntarily provide to the Foundation, may be added to Foundation databases and/or used for future calls and mailings regarding Website updates, new products and services, upcoming events, and for other purposes in accordance with state and federal law.

5. Disclosure of Personal Information to Third Parties

Users. For Users using the Website, the Foundation will only use and disclose personal information as permitted by applicable laws. The Foundation will not sell, rent, license, or trade your personal information with third parties for their own direct marketing use unless we receive your express consent to do so. Unless you give us permission to do so, the Foundation will not share the personal information of users other than as specified in this Privacy Notice. The Foundation may share your personal information under confidentiality agreements with other companies that work with, or on behalf of, the Foundation to provide products and services, such as a vendor that helps us collect information on how you use the Website. These companies may use your personal information to assist the Foundation in its operations. However, these companies do not have any independent right to share this information. We may provide information about users to respond to subpoenas, court orders, legal process or governmental regulations, or to establish or exercise our legal rights or defend against legal claims. We believe it is necessary to share information in order to investigate, prevent or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person, or as otherwise required by law.

6. Link Disclaimer
The Foundation may occasionally provide links to other entities' websites for convenience to users in locating health-related information, services, and products. When you link to other websites, please remember that you are leaving the Foundation's website, and these other websites are maintained by organizations that the Foundation does not control.

Accordingly, a link on this Website does not constitute endorsement by the Foundation of the content, viewpoint, policies, products or services provided or advertised on that website. Once you link to a website not maintained by the Foundation, you are subject to the terms and conditions of that website, including, but not limited to, its privacy policy.

7. Security Measures
The Foundation has implemented numerous security features to prevent the unauthorized release of, or access to, personal information. For example, all Foundation employees are required to certify their understanding that personal information is considered confidential, that it is important to safeguard personal information, and that the Foundation will take appropriate action against any employee who fails to adhere to our privacy standards.

Please be advised, however, that the confidentiality of any communication or material transmitted to or from the Foundation through the Website, email or text cannot be guaranteed. Accordingly, the Foundation is not responsible for the security of information transmitted through the Internet.
