    Effective as of: September 21, 2022

    Medic Tours, its affiliates, and/or its contracted medical practice entities (collectively “Medic Tours” or “We”) is committed to transparency when it comes to its collection and use of Personal Data. This “Privacy Policy” describes how, and why we collect information from you or about you through our website at medic-tours.com  (the “Website”), how we might use or disclose this information and how you may update or delete certain information about you from our system and how we protect your data. The words “you” and “your” herein refer to each Website visitor or user.  

    By accessing, browsing, and/or using the Website, you are deemed to have accepted the terms of this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with any part of this Privacy Policy, please do not use the Website.

    We may revise this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make significant changes to this Privacy Policy, we will post the revised Privacy Policy here. Each version of this Privacy Policy will be identified at the top of the page by its effective date.

    How We Collect And Use Information

    When you visit our Website, we will not collect any personally identifiable information about you unless you provide it to us voluntarily. Even then, we will collect only that information that we think is necessary for our legitimate interests consistent with services offered by Medic Tours. Such information includes personally identifiable information such as:

    • E-mail address
    • Name
    • Home or work address
    • Telephone number

    We may collect other personally identifiable information which you provide to us to participate in programs or services we offer or which may be offered through third parties (collectively, “Personal Data”). Personal Data does not include “aggregate” or other non-personally identifiable information. Aggregate information is information that we collect about a group or category of products, services, or users that is not personally identifiable or from which individual identities are removed. We may use and disclose aggregate information, and other non-personally identifiable information, for various purposes, including, without limitation, to improve and promote the Website or Services.

    Some reasons you may choose to provide Personal Data are to complete forms or surveys, create accounts, arrange for Services, make payments, or apply for a job. Our Website may contain forms through which users may request information or supply feedback. In some cases, Personal Data is required so that we can provide the requested information or to process credit card payments. Though providing Personal Data in connection with customer feedback provided through our Website is completely optional, you may choose to provide your name and contact information to facilitate any requested follow-up. Should you provide such Personal Data, on behalf of yourself or minor patients for whom you are the parent or legal guardian, it will be shared only with employees that need it to respond to questions. Personal Data is also required to set up User Accounts or take advantage of certain online services, such as online bill payment, customer portals, and obtaining the Services. Note that some of these online services may be operated by third party vendors. We recommend reviewing the terms and conditions and privacy policies of any such vendors (as further discussed below).  

    We may also use Personal Data to provide you information that we believe may be of interest to you, such as newsletters or information about the services that we offer. You may opt out of receiving such information as described more fully below. Note that you are able to visit our Website without providing Personal Data, but it may be required to fully participate in certain beneficial services like the ones mentioned above.

    Automatically Collected Information and Anonymous Information

    We may also collect information about your computer hardware and software that does not reveal your Personal Data and cannot be traced back to a specific individual. This information can include your IP address, browser type, domain names, access times, and referring website addresses. We collect this data automatically to help us administer and improve your experience with the Website, to understand how visitors are using the Website, and to perform statistical analysis (e.g., monitoring traffic flow to and from the Website). It may also be used to measure the popularity of services and programs that we offer.

    “Cookies” are text files that a web server places on your computer or device to help the web server keep track of information related to your use. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer, and they are not linked to any Personal Data.

    One of the primary purposes of cookies is to personalize your experience when interacting with the Website. For example, if you register with a Medic Tours service through the Website, a cookie helps the web server to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. When you return to the Website, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the features that you customized. Cookies also help us to track traffic patterns as noted above to help us improve the Website.  Some third-party services providers that we engage (including third-party advertisers) may also place their own cookies on your hard drive. Note that this Privacy Policy covers only our use of cookies and does not include use of cookies by such third parties.

    Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser settings to prevent the acceptance of cookies, and cookies may be deleted at any time. Note that rejecting cookies may prevent you from using certain features of our Website. The “help” section located in the toolbar of most web browsers will provide instructions for disabling the acceptance of cookies.

    “Web Beacons” (also known as Web bugs, pixel tags or clear GIFs) are tiny graphics with a unique identifier that may be included on our Website for several purposes, including to deliver or communicate with cookies, to track and measure the performance of our Website, to monitor how many visitors view our Website, and to monitor the effectiveness of our advertising. Unlike cookies, which are stored on the user’s hard drive, Web Beacons are typically embedded invisibly on web pages (or in an e-mail).

    Typically, though not always, the information we share is provided through cookies or similar tracking technologies, which recognize the device you are using and collect information, including hashed data, click stream information, browser type, time and date you visited the website and other information. This information is used to display targeted ads on or through our services or on other websites, apps, or services. 

    We or online advertising networks use this information to make the advertisements you see online more relevant to your interests. We may also display targeted advertising to you through social media platforms, such as Instagram, LinkedIn, Facebook, TikTok, Twitter, Google, Pinterest, and others. These companies have interest-based advertising programs that allow us to direct advertisements to users who have shown interest in our services while those users are on the social media platform, or to groups of other users who share similar traits, such as likely commercial interests and demographics. These advertisements are governed by the privacy policies of those social media companies that provide them.

    Google Analytics and Advertising

     We may also utilize certain forms of display advertising and other advanced features through Google Analytics. These features enable us to use first-party cookies (such as the Google Analytics cookie) and third-party cookies (such as the DoubleClick advertising cookie) or other third-party cookies together to inform, optimize, and display ads based on your past visits to our services.

    You may control your advertising preferences or opt-out of certain Google advertising products by visiting the Google Ads Preferences Manager, currently available at https://google.com/ads/preferences, or by visiting NAI’s online resources at http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices.

    To learn more about interest-based advertising and how you may be able to opt out of some of this advertising, you may wish to visit the Digital Advertising Alliance’s (DAA) resources and/or the Network Advertising Initiative’s (NAI) online resources, at www.aboutads.info/choices  or http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/ and you can opt-out of receiving some interest-based advertisements on mobile apps by visiting http://www.aboutads.info/appchoices.
