Privacy Policy

Introduction
Impact Education, LLC (“Impact Education”) provides continuing education to health care professionals. Impact Education is concerned about your privacy and publishes this privacy policy to let you know what data we collect about you as an individual professional, and how we use, share, and protect your personal information.

The nature of the Services that we provide through our Web site requires that we collect and use information about you as more fully described below. Some of your private information may be disclosed to third parties (for example, accrediting bodies) in order to provide the Information and Services that you request, and may be used by both Impact Education and third parties to provide that Information and/or perform those Services. In addition, Impact Education and third parties may use your private information to offer you additional information, programs, or services that match your areas of interest.

Collection of private information
When you register for an activity on our Web site, we will ask you to provide certain personal information, including your address, telephone number, and email address. If you or any third parties send correspondence to Impact Education, such as an email or letter, about your activities in connection with your use of the Web site, Impact Education may retain that information. Further, if any third parties provide information to us about you, we will treat that information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

In addition, our Web site automatically tracks certain information about you through the use of cookies as you navigate the Web site. This information is used to better understand and serve you by responding to your particular interests. This information may include the Uniform Resource Locator (URL) that you just came from (whether this URL is on the site or not), which URL you next go to (whether this URL is on the site or not), what browser you are using, and your IP address. Impact Education may collect this information and may store this session information about you on our system. Any such information as associated with you personally is subject to this Privacy Policy.

This site also includes links to Web sites hosted by third parties. Should you access any third party site, the information you provide will be governed by the privacy policy of the Web site you are visiting. It is the sole responsibility of those third parties to adhere to any applicable restrictions on the disclosure of your private information, and Impact Education and its affiliates shall not be liable for wrongful use or disclosure of your private information by any third party.

Use of Private Information
Impact Education uses the information you provide through the registration process to provide you with the Information and Services you request. We may also use your information to:

  • communicate with you on matters relating to the Web site and your account
  • provide necessary information to accrediting bodies and our other affiliates in connection with the Information and Services you request from us
  • offer you information about related services and programs.

Impact Education may also use information maintained about you, and other information obtained from your current and past activities to resolve disputes, troubleshoot problems, and enforce our rights.

Opting Out
You may choose to disclose or not disclose the private information we request during the registration process. However, if you choose not to disclose the requested information, we may not be able to provide you with some or all of the Information or Services you request.

If you do not wish to receive certain communications from Impact Education, you may have the ability to opt out by declining the service offered or informing us that you no longer wish to receive such communications. We will comply with your request unless such communications are necessary for the administration of your account, are required by law, or are necessary to the rights, property, or safety of Impact Education, our users, or others.

Protection of Information
Impact Education utilizes an International Computer Security Association-compliant firewall to protect internal information from outside threats. Email communication is encrypted via a digital security certificate.

Impact Education uses commercially reasonable efforts to limit the disclosures of private information. This site has security measures in place to protect your personal information from loss, misuse, or alteration.

Please be aware that unauthorized parties may unlawfully intercept or access transmissions despite any commercially reasonable security efforts by Impact Education. Even with such technology, no Web site is 100% secure.

Disclosure of Private Information
We may disclose your private information to accrediting organizations, service providers, and other third parties that we work with to the extent necessary to provide the Information and Services you request through Impact Education and/or to provide you with related information, to communicate with you, and to provide you with information on other programs and services in your areas of interest.

There are, however, circumstances beyond our control which prevent Impact Education from ensuring that your information will never be disclosed in ways not otherwise described herein. For example, among other things, we may be required by law, regulation, or court order to disclose information to government representatives or third parties under certain circumstances. If Impact Education is requested by law enforcement officials or judicial authorities to provide information on individuals, Impact Education may, without your consent, also provide such information (1) in matters involving claims of personal or public safety or in litigation where the data is pertinent or relevant and (2), to the extent necessary to the rights, property, or safety of Impact Education, our users, or others.

Further, corporate restructuring, sale of assets, merger, divestiture, and other changes of control or financial status affecting Impact Education may require disclosure as an incidental result of a transfer of assets by operation of law or otherwise. Therefore, Impact Education and its affiliates do not promise, and you should not expect, that your private information shall remain private under all circumstances.

Amendments to this Privacy Policy

We reserve the right to make changes or additions to this policy at any time. Any changes to this policy will be posted to this site.
