We are invested in making healthcare better for everyone. Since our Services have the potential to identify anonymous healthcare trends which may benefit the healthcare community (such as a reaction to a medication not previously documented as a side effect), we may disclose aggregated information about our Members, and information that does not identify any individual, without restriction. Additionally, we may share aggregated, non-personally identifiable information publicly and with our partners to evaluate the effectiveness, value, and analytic trends of our Services.
​
We do not share personal information with companies, organizations and individuals outside of Agrin Health except in the following circumstances:

Your California Privacy Rights
Residents of the State of California, under certain provisions of the California Civil Code, have the right to request from companies conducting business in California a list of all third parties to which the company has disclosed certain personally identifiable information as defined under California law during the preceding year for third party direct marketing purposes. The company is not required to provide the above-described lists if it adopts and discloses its policy of not disclosing personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes unless the customer first affirmatively agrees to the disclosure.
We do not share information with third parties for their direct marketing purposes unless you affirmatively agree to such disclosure -- typically by opting-in to receive information from a third party. To prevent disclosure of your personal information for use in direct marketing by a third party, do not opt-in to such use when you provide personal information on our website. California customers may request further information about our compliance with this law by e-mailing Support@AgrinHealth.com.
California Do Not Track Notice. Some browsers have a "Do Not Track" feature that lets you tell websites and online services that you do not want to have your online activities tracked. Such browser features and industry standards are not uniform, so our websites and online services do not respond to those signals.
​
​
Data Security and Retention
We have implemented measures designed to secure your personal information from accidental loss and from unauthorized access, use, alteration and disclosure. In particular:
-
We comply with HIPAA’s security rule
-
We encrypt many of our Services using SSL.
-
We review our information collection, storage and processing practices, including physical security measures, to guard against unauthorized access to systems.
-
We restrict access to personal information to Agrin Health employees, contractors and agents who need to know that information in order to process it for us, and who are subject to strict contractual confidentiality obligations and may be disciplined or terminated if they fail to meet these obligations.
Unfortunately, the transmission and storage of information cannot be completely secured. Although we do our best to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information stored on cloud servers, or transmitted through our Services or via electronic communications such as email. Any transmission of personal information is at your own risk. We are not responsible for circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures contained in our Services or related to communications sent through the internet.
​
We will retain your Member Content, including your information, for as long as either your account is active (plus a thirty-day precautionary hold period), as needed to provide our Services, or as legally required, whichever is longest (“Retention Period”). After the Retention Period, we will permanently and irreversibly purge your Member Content. We will retain and use your information as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, prevent fraud or abuse, resolve disputes, enforce our agreements, or take other actions permitted by law. Anonymous or aggregated information that does not identify you personally may be retained indefinitely.
