This privacy policy governs all information collected through any website owned and operated by HIPAOS, LLC.

HIPAOS' commitment to your privacy

We are obligated to make every reasonable effort to protect your medical information and your personal privacy from inadvertent disclosure. As described throughout this document, we take that obligation seriously, and have taken steps to meet or exceed the best practice standards for Internet security. For that reason, no account or personal information can be accessed or retrieved when a visitor browses the public (pre-login) areas of any HIPAOS web site.

It is our policy, except under the very narrow legal circumstances described in this paragraph, that no personal medical information contained in your account will be divulged to any other person. We will not sell, market or disclose your personal medical information to third parties or reveal other details about your health records without your permission. However, we reserve the right to disclose or report such personal information -- in limited circumstances -- where we believe in good faith that disclosure is required to cooperate with regulators or law enforcement authorities. We may need to share your private health information with our own affiliates and contractors, but only to the extent reasonably necessary to operate this website and provide related services. We do reserve the right to adjust this privacy statement in our sole and absolute discretion, without additional notice.

By confirming your agreement, you also pledge to hold harmless HIPAOS, LLC and/or its contractors under federal and state privacy laws for any inadvertent or deliberate online disclosure of personal information. You also acknowledge (through the content of this Legal Disclaimer and Privacy Statement, and by your continued use of any HIPAOS website) we have fulfilled our obligation to disclose how we will use your personal information.

Online security

We have taken many precautions to protect your information from loss, misuse or alteration. We operate secure networks protected by industry standard firewalls and password protection systems. Only authorized individuals have access to the information provided by our users.

We use Secured Socket Layer ("SSL") transmission encryption to protect transmission of personal information you enter into your online account and emergency response wallet file. SSL lets your browser send and receive information in an encrypted format. The information you store with us is encrypted before it is saved. That way, should any unauthorized user ever penetrate our security, your stored information can not be read.

Your browser's security icon, typically found at the bottom of your browser's window, reflects the security condition of the browser. The padlock icon indicates that your browser is communicating over a secured link.

Your responsibility

You acknowledge that we are only providing secure, private data storage plus blank wallet file templates for your personal use. Further, you agree you are solely responsible for the accuracy of information you enter into your account and which will be the source for data appearing on the personal medical wallet file you produce from that account.

You agree to hold us harmless for any misspellings, incorrect dosages, or other errors you make when entering your personal health information into our system. You agree HIPAOS, LLC, cannot be held responsible for your errors or negligent use of the service due to:

Errors of commission or omission while entering information;

Failure to maintain confidentiality of or sharing of passwords and/or access information leading to unauthorized access to accounts. This includes storing passwords (through functions such as "autocomplete") on any PC or device that may be collected and retransmitted (as in the case with "spyware.");

Failure to "Sign Off" when completing an online session, leaving a computer unattended during an online session, or storing identification or password information in a computer.

As a member, you have a responsibility to safeguard your personal and medical information. You can do so by following these simple guidelines:

Protect your sign-in information and password.

Use caution when disclosing your account access details to other persons. If someone contacts you, either by telephone or e-mail, says they represent HIPAOS and asks for your account information, do NOT give it to them. No one from HIPAOS, will ever contact you to ask for your personal information either by telephone or e-mail. We recommend you hang up and e-mail us at support@myemergencymedicalfile.com or telephone us directly at 321-274-1741 (between 9 AM and 5 PM, Monday through Friday, Eastern Time) to verify the call is legitimate.

Our promise to you

The HIPAOS data network is defined as the point from your modem connection on the Internet to the final system on which a given transaction is accessed and stored by one of our servers. We promise that this entire data network will be constantly protected by a system of firewalls and other technology, making it stronger and more secure than some online banking systems. We will use security coding techniques to protect against unauthorized access to personal records, ensure accuracy and integrity of communications and transactions, and protect member confidentiality.

You will need to use certain types of computers, obtain an Internet account, and use browser software before you can access HIPAOS' online services. The installation, maintenance, and operation of those items are your responsibility. We are not responsible for any errors or failures of your computer equipment or Internet connection software. HIPAOS' online services -- and our commitment to protect your privacy -- begin at the interface of your modem connection with the Internet.

How we track visitors to our web sites
An IP address is the unique number that identifies your computer from all others when you log onto the Internet.

The use of IP addresses also helps us prevent malicious Internet users from masquerading as authorized users. By interrogating your computer's IP address, HIPAOS seeks to protect your data from unauthorized users. However, HIPAOS hereby disclaims all liability should any unauthorized user access one of our sites with your user name, password and IP address.

YOUR MEDICAL INFORMATION

How we store your personal medical information
Storing your data allows our site to assemble your information so that you can then print your personal emergency medical information wallet file. When you log into our system and fill in the blanks to complete your personal emergency medical file, you are creating your own personal and private data storage account, much like an online bank account. Your encrypted information is stored on a server that is protected by state of the art security systems.

Your data is garbled by our encryption programs before being stored. What does that mean to you? Even if a hacker gets through our formidable safeguards, all they can retrieve will be gibberish.

How we utilize your personal medical information
The information you provide will be used to create your personal emergency medical file and wallet file, and for no other purpose.
