PERSONAL INFORMATION.
A visitor can access and browse our entire site at any time without providing any personal information. We do not collect information that would personally identify you unless you choose to provide it. In addition, Dr. David J Schimp does not share any personally identifiable information of any individual with any third party unrelated to Dr. David J Schimp, except in situations where we must provide information for legal purposes or investigations, or if so directed by the patient through a proper authorization.
Forms
Our website contains forms through which users may request information or supply feedback to us. In some cases, telephone numbers, email addresses or return addresses are required so that we can supply requested information to you, and in other cases, correct names and addresses are required to process credit card payments.
After you fill out a form, we may contact you with follow-up information (unless you have checked an "opt-out" box on the form). We do not provide any information supplied on our web forms to any outside organization for any reason (other than where we may be required to by law, or as necessary to process credit card information). We do not save this personal information for any other reason.
Surveys
Occasionally, we may survey visitors to our site. The information from these surveys is used in aggregate form to help us understand the needs of our visitors so that we can improve our site. We generally do not ask for information in surveys that would personally identify you. If we do request contact information for follow-up, you may decline to provide it. If survey respondents provide personal information (such as an email address) in a survey, it is shared only with those people who need to see it to respond to the question or request.
Email
"Phishing" is a scam designed to steal your personal information. If you receive an email that looks like it is from Dr. David J Schimp asking you for your personal information, do not respond. We will never request your password, user name, credit card information or other personal information through email.
User Name and Password
In the event you access any service requiring a User Name and Password, you are solely responsible for keeping such User Name and Password strictly confidential.
NON-PERSONAL INFORMATION
DoctorSchimp.com collects non-personal information such as website usage, traffic patterns, site performance and related statistics based on our tracking of your visits to the website.
IP Addresses
The web server automatically collects the IP (which stands for Internet Protocol) address of the computers that access our site. An IP address is a number that is assigned to your computer when you access the Internet. It is not truly personally identifiable information because many different individuals can access the Internet via the same computer. We use this information in aggregate form to understand how our site is being used and how we can better serve visitors.
Please note that although such information is not personally identifiable, we can determine from an IP address a visitor's Internet Service Provider and the geographic location of his or her point of connectivity.
Text Messaging SMS Terms and Conditions
Data and mobile numbers are not shared with any third parties. Personal information is not shared or sold to third parties for marketing purposes. We may use text messaging to reply to a text inquiry that we received from you or when we are attempting to notify you with details concerning an appointment and voice or email communication was unsuccessful or if the message was received from you after normal business hours. Message and data rates may apply. Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages. We do not utilize text for any type of mass marketing.
