We may make changes to this Policy. The “Last Updated” date at the top of the page indicates when this Policy was last revised. If we make material changes, we may notify you through the Services or by sending you an email or other communication. We encourage you to read this Privacy Policy periodically to stay up-to-date about our privacy practices. Once the changes have been made, your continued use of the Sites will constitute your acceptance of the revised Policy. If you have questions regarding our Privacy Policy, we may be reached via phone at 732-577-6590, via email at [email protected], via fax at 732-577-6595, or by writing to us at Integrated Media Services; ATTN: SITE ADMINISTRATOR; 500 Craig Road, Suite 101, Manalapan, NJ 07726.

“Personal Information” means information that alone or when in combination with other information may be used to readily identify, contact, or locate you, such as: name, address, email address, or phone number. We do not consider Personal Information to include information that has been anonymized so that it does not allow a third party to identify a specific individual.

What information does Integrated Media Services collect?

Information You Provide

Our Sites collect information volunteered by you in several areas, including newsletter sign up pages, site registrations, contests and promotions, product reviews and website surveys, purchasing a subscription or access to courses, customer service requests, forums, and requests for product information. The information we request for you to participate in these features includes Personal Information such as name, address, telephone and fax numbers, email address, username and password, AGD number, NPI number, license number, profile picture, as well as “demographic” information such as your hobbies or personal preferences.

Our Sites do not collect payment and billing information. If you make a purchase through the Services, your payment information will be collected by a third-party payment provider and not by us. We may receive summary transaction information from our third-party payment processers, such as the date and amount of the transaction.

Information We Collect Automatically From Your Use of the Sites

When you use our Sites, we and our third-party service providers may collect information from you through automated means, such as cookies, web beacons, and web server logs. By using the Sites, you consent to the placement of cookies, beacons, and similar technologies in your browser and on emails in accordance with this Privacy Policy. The information collected in this manner includes IP address, browser characteristics, device IDs and characteristics, operating system version, language preferences, referring URLs, and information about the usage of our Sites.

We may use this information, for example, to ensure that the Sites function properly, to determine how many users have visited certain pages or opened messages or newsletters, or to prevent fraud. We use IP addresses to derive your approximate location.

We work with analytics providers such as Google Analytics, which uses cookies and similar technologies to collect and analyze information about use of the Sites and report on activities and trends. This service may also collect information regarding the use of other websites, apps and online resources. You can learn about Google’s practices by going to  https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/, and opt out of them by downloading the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on, available at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

Integrated Media Services uses cookies and similar technology to identify registered users of our Sites and to automatically give them access to “member only” content areas such as articles and reports, and to provide them with access to previously-stored information. Integrated Media Services and our third-party partners, such as online advertising networks and website analytics providers, also use cookies and other similar technology for such activities as estimating our audience size and usage patterns, showing you personalized advertising on other websites based on your usage of the Sites, and tracking the aggregate number of customer returns at our Sites. Our partners also may collect information about your online activities over time and on other web sites or apps. Finally, Integrated Media Services uses cookies to help simplify the process of filling out certain forms on our Sites that allow you to request information from manufactures in our catalog and/or our advertisers.

If you do not want information collected through the use of cookies, most browsers allow you to automatically decline cookies or be given the choice of declining or accepting the transfer to your computer of a particular cookie (or cookies) from a particular site. You may also wish to refer to http://www.allaboutcookies.org/manage-cookies/index.html. If, however, you do not accept cookies, you may experience some inconvenience in your use of the Sites.

The email address of your friend or colleague will not be stored in our databases based on this service.
  • Integrated Media Services may provide users with the opportunity to request additional information from product manufacturers in our online directory or from our advertisers.

What Kind of Security Measures Does Integrated Media Services Use?

We use reasonable physical, organizational, and technical safeguards that are designed to maintain the integrity and security of the information that we collect.

We do not accept liability for unintentional disclosure. We recommend that you do not share your passwords with anyone. Integrated Media Services will never ask you for your password in an unsolicited phone call or in an unsolicited email.

If you learn that your child has provided us with Personal Information without your consent, you may alert us at [email protected]. If we learn that we have collected any Personal Information from children under 13, we will promptly take steps to delete such information and terminate the child’s account.

Links to non-Integrated Media Services web sites

Many of our Sites contain links to web sites owned and operated by unaffiliated third parties. These links are provided as a service to you, and do not constitute Integrated Media Services‘ endorsement or support of the third-party web sites. The third parties who operate these sites have their own information collection and use practices, and Integrated Media Services is not responsible for either the privacy practices or the content of these sites. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of each site before providing your Personal Information, and to contact the providers directly if you have any questions about their privacy policies.

California Consumer Privacy Act

The California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018, Cal. Civ. Code §§ 1798.100 – 1798.199 (CCPA) gives California consumers certain rights as to their personal information as defined by that law. The following applies to California consumers.

Unless an exception applies, such as the “business-to-business” exception (CCPA § 1798.145(n)(1)), which would apply to communications where you are acting as an employee, owner, director, officer or contractor of your organization in connection with receiving a product or service from us (in which case other requirements may apply):

You have the right to request that we disclose certain information to you about our collection and use of your personal information over the past 12 months. You may request (i) the categories of personal information we collected about you; (ii) the categories of sources for the personal information we collected about you; (iii) our business or commercial purpose for collecting that personal information; (iv) the categories of third parties with whom we shared that personal information; and (v) the specific pieces of personal information we collected about you.

You have the right to request that we delete any of your personal information that we collected from you and retained, subject to certain exceptions.  Once we receive and confirm your request, we will delete your personal information from our records, unless an exception applies. We may deny your deletion request if retaining the information is necessary for us to: (i) complete the transaction for which we collected the personal information, provide a good or service that you requested, take actions reasonably anticipated within the context of our ongoing business relationship with you, or otherwise perform our contract with you; (ii) detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or prosecute those responsible for such activities; (iii) debug products to identify and repair errors that impair existing intended functionality; (iv) exercise free speech, ensure the right of another party to exercise their free speech rights, or exercise another right provided for by law; (v) enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with consumer expectations based on your relationship with us; (vi) comply with a legal obligation; or (vii) make other internal and lawful uses of that information that are compatible with the context in which you provided it.

To exercise your CCPA rights, please submit a request to us by either calling us at 800-227-2513; or by sending an e-mail to [email protected].

Only you or a person registered with the California Secretary of State that you authorize to act on your behalf may make a request related to your personal information. The request must: (i) provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify 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 may need to contact you to request additional information in order to verify you are the person about whom we collected personal information or that you are an authorized representative. We will not use any information provided as part of a request, including any contact information you provide or that we request in order to respond to or verify a request, for any purpose other than to respond to or verify your request.

We will make an effort to respond to your request within 45 days of its receipt. If we require more time (up to 90 days), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing either by mail or electronically, at your option. Any disclosures we provide will only cover the 12-month period before our receipt of the request. The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable.

We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.

We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA rights by (i) denying you goods or services; (ii) charging you a different price or rates for goods or services; or (iii) providing you a different level of quality of goods or service.

We have not sold personal information in the preceding 12 months.
