COOKIES POLICY

Like many online platforms, Meduit and its analytics vendors use server logs and automated data collection tools, such as browser cookies, pixel tags, scripts and web beacons. These tools are used for analytics purposes to enable Meduit to understand how users interact with the site(s) and Services. Meduit and its analytics vendors may tie the information gathered by these means to the identity of users.

Cookies are small text files placed on a computer or device while browsing the Internet.  Cookies are used to collect, store and share bits of information about user activities.  Meduit uses both session cookies and persistent cookies.

Session cookies are used to identify a particular visit to Meduit’s site(s) and collect information about your interaction with the site(s).  These cookies expire after a short time or when the user closes their web browser after using the site(s). Meduit uses these cookies to identify a user during a single browsing session, such as when you log into the site(s).  This helps Meduit improve the site(s) and Services as well as improve the users’ browsing experience.

A persistent cookie will remain on a user’s device for a set period of time specified in the cookie. Meduit uses these cookies to identify and recognize a specific user over a longer period of time. They allow Meduit to:

      analyze the usage of the site(s) (e.g. what links users click on) in order to improve our offering;

      test different versions of the site(s) to see which particular features or content users prefer to optimize the site(s);

      provide a more personalized experience to users with more relevant content and course recommendations; and

    allow users to more easily log in to use the site(s) and Services.

Examples of persistent cookies include:  (i) preferences cookies to remember information about a user’s browser and settings preferences, such as preferred language – preference cookies make a user’s experience more functional and customized, (ii) authentication and security cookies to enable a user to log in or stay logged in to access the site(s) and Services, to protect user accounts against fraudulent log-ins by others and to help detect and protect against abuse or unauthorized usage of user accounts and (iii) functional cookies to make the experience of using the site(s) and Services better, like remembering the sound volume level selected by the user.

Meduit uses tracking technology to: (i) determine if a certain page was visited or whether an email sent by Meduit was opened or clicked on by a user; and (ii) to customize the learning experience of individual users by recommending specific courses and other content.

We also use clear gifs in HTML-based emails sent to our users to track which emails are opened and clicked on by recipients.   We may use the information we obtain from the cookie in the administration of the site(s), to improve the usability of the site(s) and for marketing purposes. We may also use that information to recognize your computer when you visit our site(s), and to personalize our site(s) for you.

Cookies and information captured through our site(s) are stored for a certain retention period, however you can eliminate these cookies any time before the expiration date.

HOW TO RESTRICT COOKIES

Please be aware that restricting cookies may impact the functionality of the Services.   Most browsers allow you to refuse to accept cookies.  Additional general information about cookies, including how to be notified about the placement of new cookies and how to disable cookies, can be found at www.allaboutcookies.org.

LINKING SITES

The site(s) contain(s) links to other websites.  Meduit is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of such websites, including any websites that may indicate a special relationship or partnership with us (such as co-branded pages or “powered by” or “in cooperation with” relationships). We do not share information we gather with other websites or any other entities or individuals unless such sharing is disclosed to you in advance through this Privacy Policy.  Other linked websites, however, may collect personal information from you that is not subject to our control.  To ensure protection of your privacy, always review the privacy policy of the websites you may visit by linking from the site(s).  Please note that this Privacy Policy applies only to our site(s), and not to other companies’ or organizations’ websites to which we link.

For instance, information collected through Google Analytics is shared with Google and its partners who may combine it with other information you provided to them or they collected from your use of their services. This information is stored in Google’s servers according to their privacy practices.

SOCIAL MEDIA

We may collect information from other sources, such as social media platforms that may share information about how you interact with our social media content.  We do not control how your personal information is collected, stored or used by such third-party websites or to whom it is disclosed.  You should review the privacy policies and settings on any social media website that you subscribe to so that you understand the information they collect and may be sharing.  If you do not want your social media websites to share information about you, you must contact that website and determine whether it gives you the opportunity to opt-out of sharing such information. Meduit is not responsible for how these third-party websites may use information collected from or about you.

Further, our site(s) may include social media features, such as the Facebook Like button.  Our integration of these features may allow third-party social media to collect certain information, such as your IP address and which page(s) you are visiting when using our site(s) and Services, and to set a cookie to enable that feature to function properly.  Your interactions with these features are governed by the privacy policy of the company providing it.

HOW LONG WE RETAIN YOUR INFORMATION

We generally retain your information as long as reasonably necessary to provide you the Services or to comply with applicable law and in accordance with our document retention policy.   To determine the appropriate retention period for personal information, we consider the amount, nature and sensitivity of the personal information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal information and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means and the applicable legal requirements.   We may retain copies of information about you and any transactions or Services you have used for a period of time that is consistent with applicable law, applicable statute of limitations or as we believe is reasonably necessary to comply with applicable law, regulation, legal process or governmental request, to detect or prevent fraud, to collect fees owed, to resolve disputes, to address problems with our Services, to assist with investigations, to enforce other applicable agreements or policies or to take any other actions consistent with applicable law.

In some circumstances we may anonymize your personal data (so that it can no longer be associated with you) for research or statistical purposes, in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.  This allows the specific information collected (name, email, address, phone number, etc.) to become anonymous, but allows Meduit to keep the transaction or engagement data.   For example, Meduit will not be able to tell if John Smith registered for an event, but we will be able to tell that a person registered for an event and maintain headcount and transactional history. This will allow Meduit to maintain a level of information that helps us develop and improve our site(s) and Services.

DO NOT TRACK

Do Not Track (“DNT”) is an optional browser setting that allows you to express your preferences regarding tracking across websites.  Most modern web browsers give you the option to send a Do Not Track signal to the websites you visit, indicating that you do not wish to be tracked. However, there is no accepted standard for how a website should respond to this signal, so we do not take any action in response to this signal.  Meduit does not have a mechanism in place to respond to DNT signals.  Instead, in addition to publicly available third-party tools, we offer you the choices described in this Privacy Policy to manage the collection and use of information about you.

Meduit does track some activity across websites (including your search terms, the website you visited before you visited or used the Services and other clickstream data) and we may continue to collect information in the manner described in this Privacy Policy from web browsers that have enabled DNT signals or similar mechanisms.

MARKETING AND PROMOTIONAL COMMUNICATIONS

You may opt-out of receiving marketing and promotional messages from Meduit, if those messages are powered by Meduit, by following the instructions in those messages.  If you decide to opt-out, you will still receive non-promotional communications relevant to your use of our Services.

CHILDREN’S ONLINE PRIVACY PROTECTION ACT (COPPA) COMPLIANCE AND RELATED INFORMATION

The Children’s Online Privacy and Protection Act (COPPA) regulates online collection of information from persons under the age of 13. It is our policy to refrain from knowingly collecting or maintaining personal information relating to any person under the age of 18.  If you are under the age of 18, please do not supply any personal information through the site(s).  If you are under the age of 18 and have already provided personal information through the site(s), please have your parent or guardian contact us immediately using the information provided under  CONTACT US so that we can remove such information from our files.

SECURITY

We take reasonable measures, including administrative, technical, and physical safeguards, to protect your information from loss, theft, misuse, and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. Nevertheless, no online or computer environment is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security of the transmission or storage of your information.   We hold information about you both at our own premises and with the assistance of third-party service providers.  Further public disclosure here of our security measures could aid those who might attempt to circumvent those security measures.   If you have additional questions regarding security, please feel free to contact us directly using the information provided under  CONTACT

US. To ensure that our employees comply with our privacy policies, we have developed a training program that provides all employees with the tools and knowledge to protect your personal information in all aspects of their work. Any employee who violates our privacy policies is subject to disciplinary action, including possible termination and civil and/or criminal prosecution.

CALIFORNIA PRIVACY RIGHTS

California law permits residents of California to request certain details about our disclosure of your personal information by us to third-parties for direct marketing purposes during the immediate preceding calendar year. If you are a California resident and would like to request this information, send the request using the information provided under  CONTACT US.

CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY

This Privacy Policy may be revised from time to time as we add new features and Services, as laws change and as industry privacy and security best practices evolve.  We display an effective date on this Privacy Policy at the top of this Privacy Policy so that it will be easier for you to know when there has been a change.  Changes will apply to information collected after the change is effective.  Please check this Privacy Policy periodically for changes.  Small changes or changes that do not significantly affect individual privacy interests may be made at any time and without prior notice.
