What this policy covers
This policy describes the public AREOLA website. Information held in the course of care is governed separately by the institute's patient privacy practices, which are provided to patients directly and are not summarized here.
Information collected on this site
The site records ordinary technical information needed to serve pages. Pages that provide planning tools are designed not to collect names, medical records, symptoms or other sensitive health information.
How information is used
Website information is used to operate and improve the site and to respond to inquiries that visitors initiate. AREOLA does not sell website information, and does not use it to make clinical or financial determinations about anyone.
Email is for general correspondence only
The address [email protected] is available for questions about the website and published information. Email is not a secure medical channel. Do not include medical records, symptoms, diagnoses, identification documents, insurance information or other personal details. Messages containing sensitive information cannot be processed through the public website.
Questions and requests
Privacy questions relating to the website may be directed to the Office of Legal & Compliance through National Patient Services. Requests concerning a patient record are handled by Medical Records Intake rather than through this policy.
