Cookies
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. For purposes of this Privacy Policy, cookies also include similar technologies, such as pixels, web beacons, and social network plugins (collectively, “cookies”). Cookies help the website remember information about your visit, which can make it easier to visit the website again and make the site more useful to you. Some cookies are deleted once you close your browser (session cookies), while other cookies are retained even after you close your browser so that you can be recognized when you return to a website (persistent cookies). More information about cookies and how they work is available at www.allaboutcookies.org.
Cookies on our website are generally divided into the following categories:
Essential Cookies: Essential cookies are cookies that our website needs in order to function and that enable you to move around and use the website and features. Without these essential cookies, the website will not perform as smoothly for you as we would like it to, and we may not be able to provide the website or certain services or features you request. Examples of where these cookies are used include to determine when you are signed in, to determine when your account has been inactive, and for other troubleshooting and security purposes.
Analytics Cookies: Analytics cookies provide us with information regarding how visitors navigate and interact with our website. Such cookies allow us to understand, for example, more about how many visitors we have to our website, how many times they visit us, and how many times a user viewed specific pages within our website. Among other Analytics cookies, we use Google Analytics cookies for these purposes. For more information about Google Analytics, please refer to “How Google Uses Information From Sites or Apps that Use Our Services,” which can be found at www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/, or any other URL Google may provide from time to time.
Advertising Cookies: Advertising cookies may be placed by us or third parties to enable third-party ad networks to recognize a unique cookie on your computer or mobile device. The information that is collected and shared by these types of cookies may also be linked to the device identifier of the device you are using to allow us to keep track of all the websites you have visited that are associated with the ad network. This information may be used for the purpose of targeting advertisements on our website and third-party sites based on those interests.
Do Not Track (“DNT”) is a privacy preference that visitors can set in their web browsers. When a visitor enables DNT, the browser sends a message to websites requesting that they do not track the visitor. At this time, we do not universally respond to these signals with all platforms that may collect data about your visit.
Depending on where you are located, you may have additional rights, as detailed below.
After completing the sign in process, website users have the option to change their password, email address, and security question and response. If the website user forgets or misplaces their password, Bravery Home Healthcare will use the security question and response to identify the website user and grant access to the website. To change personally identifiable information, registered members and patients must contact a representative of Bravery Home Healthcare.
Bravery Home Healthcare does not have actual knowledge that it sells or shares the Personal Information of any individual under the age of 16.
We may, from time to time, send you email regarding Bravery Home Healthcare’s products and services. In addition, we may occasionally send you direct mail about products and services that we think may be of interest to you. Only Bravery Home Healthcare (or agents working on behalf of Bravery Home Healthcare) will send you emails and direct mailings. If you do not wish to receive such emails, you may opt out of future emails by following the directions at the bottom of each email. If you do not wish to receive such mailings, we provide contact information on our mailings at which you can request removal from our mailing list. Or, if you have a registered account, you can easily edit your account information to specify that you no longer wish to receive such emails and mailings.
Text Messages
When you opt in for our Text Message Service, we may also collect the information you provide, including your telephone number(s), when you read a text message, and information relevant to any request you make to opt out or unsubscribe from receiving Text Messages. Website users who do not wish to receive such notifications via email or SMS (text) can choose to opt out of receiving such information. It is our policy that email and SMS (text) messages will contain an “unsubscribe” and “STOP” function, along with instructions on how to execute the opt-out function. Some website users may have the ability to opt out of receiving email and SMS (text) messages by updating their communications preferences within the secured area of the website.
To exercise your rights, or appeal a decision we have made regarding your rights, please contact us as stated in the “Contact Us” section of this Privacy Policy, or you may submit a request to us on our Contact form.
If you choose to assert any of these rights under applicable law, we will respond within the time period prescribed by applicable law. Please note that many of the rights listed in the “Your Rights” section are subject to exceptions and limitations. Further, we may request additional information to respond to or fulfill any requests regarding your rights under applicable laws or regulations. Your rights and our responses will vary based on your country or territory of residency.
In certain jurisdictions, a person authorized to act on your behalf may make a verifiable consumer request related to your Personal Information. If you designate an authorized person to submit requests to exercise certain privacy rights on your behalf, we will require verification that you provided the authorized agent with such permission.
Your verifiable request must: (i) provide sufficient information (e.g., name, address, phone number, and/or email address) that allows us to reasonably verify that you are the person about whom we collected Personal Information or an authorized representative; and (ii) describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it. We will only use Personal Information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor’s identity or authority to make the request.
Prior to complying with your request, we will need to verify your identity. Our verification procedure may differ depending on whether you have a registered account, the sensitivity of the Personal Information, and the risk of harm to you by unauthorized disclosure or deletion as applicable. You may also be asked to submit a signed declaration under penalty of perjury stating that you are the individual whose Personal Information is the subject of the request.
Information that you share on the website is kept strictly confidential and fully secure. Your encrypted (encoded) sensitive information is protected using “Secure Socket Layers (SSL)” as it passes between your browser and this website. We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the Personal Information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it.
No method of transmission over the internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. Therefore, while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your Personal Information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. Only authorized persons are permitted to access your Personal Information. All authorized persons must abide by security, privacy, and confidentiality agreements.
