Privacy Policy

This privacy policy describes how Uprising Medicine uses and protects any information that you give us. We are committed to ensuring that your privacy is protected. If you provide us with personal information through uprisingaz.com, you can be assured that it will only be used in accordance with this privacy statement.

Website Visitors

Like most website operators, Uprising Medicine collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. Uprising Medicine’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Uprising Medicine’s visitors use its website.

Uprising Medicine also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. Uprising Medicine does not use IP addresses to identify its visitors, however, and does not disclose such information, other than under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information, as described below.

Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information

Certain visitors to Uprising Medicine choose to interact with Uprising Medicine in ways that require Uprising Medicine to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Uprising Medicine gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who use our “Contact Us” page to provide a username and email address.

In each case, Uprising Medicine collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with Uprising Medicine. Uprising Medicine does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities, like contacting the physician or support staff.

All of the information that is collected on Uprisingaz.com will be handled in accordance with GDPR legislation.

Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information

Uprising Medicine discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors, and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on Uprising Medicine’s behalf or to provide services and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using Uprising Medicine, you consent to the transfer of such information to them.

Uprising Medicine will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to project administrators, employees, contractors, and affiliated organizations, as described above, Uprising Medicine discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only when required to do so by law, if you give permission to have your information shared, or when Uprising Medicine believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of Uprising Medicine, third parties, or the public at large. Your personal health information is protected by Federal laws.

If you are a registered user of Uprising Medicine’s website and have supplied your email address, Uprising Medicine may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what’s going on with Uprising Medicine. We primarily use our blog to communicate this type of information, so we expect to keep this type of email to a minimum.
