PRIVACY AND SECURITY

Radiology Consultants Associated has implemented people, process, and technology measures intended to protect personal and confidential information that we have while it is under our control. We recognize our obligation to our clients, community, and online visitors to comply with all applicable laws. We have taken steps to make the personal and confidential information we receive secure against unauthorized access and use.

When we provide our services, we make information about our privacy policy and practices available to our clients. If you require information about patient or healthcare provider privacy in Alberta, please contact the Office of the Privacy Commission at www.oipc.ab.ca or by telephone at 780.422.6860 or Toll Free at 1.888.878.4044.

Our dealings with third parties are governed by appropriate contracts and agreements and other measures intended to protect confidential and private information, but we have no way of controlling the actions or failures of others, whether or not that affects you or information about you.

The Internet is not a secure medium and privacy cannot be ensured. Information passed through the Internet must pass through a number of intermediate systems - and each of those provides an opportunity for email messages and electronic transmissions to be intercepted, copied, stored, forged and used by parties other than the intended recipient.

This website is not secure. Radiology Consultants Associated cannot ensure the confidentiality or privacy of any information that is transmitted. Information you provide to the Radiology Consultants Associated website will be received on a non-confidential basis. If this concerns you, please contact us directly by the methods described below.

Any information disclosed online can potentially be collected and used by parties other than the intended recipient. Radiology Consultants Associated will not be responsible for any damages that you or any third party may suffer as a result of transmitting confidential information to Radiology Consultants Associated electronically, or for any errors or any changes made to any transmitted information.

TRACKING

Radiology Consultants Associated does not systematically collect information about the identity of online visitors to its website.

We sometimes collect or authorize third parties to collect anonymous information from visits to our website to help us provide better customer service. For example, tools keep track of the domains from which people visit our website, and aggregated statistical data helps measure visitor activity on this website - but we do it in ways that keep the information anonymous. We collect this information for statistical purposes and for evaluating our website to make it more useful to visitors.

COOKIES & WEB BEACONS

Radiology Consultants Associated web pages do not use "cookie" technology to track how visitors use this website, or to obtain non personal information about its online visitors. You may visit and explore this website without the need to allow your computer to accept "cookies".

Other websites do use cookies. You can set your browser to notify you when you receive a cookie, giving you the chance to decide whether to accept it. You can also set your browser to turn off cookies, but that might cause some areas of some websites to function improperly.

"Web beacons" is another technology used by many websites. We do not use web beacons. When a visitor visits website pages that contain Web beacons, an anonymous notice of that visit is generated. Web beacons work in conjunction with cookies. If you don't want to associate your anonymous cookie information with your visits to pages that contain Web beacons, you can set your browser to turn off cookies.

If you turn off cookies, web beacon technologies will still detect anonymous visits to these pages, but the notices they generate cannot be associated with other anonymous cookie information and are disregarded. For more information visit www.cookiecentral.com.

If we change the services provided through the website to require the use of "cookies", we will let you know by updating this privacy statement.
