General
This Privacy Notice applies to information we collect when you use www.seniormedicarepatrol.com and any other websites, mobile applications (“app(s)”), or services that post a link to this Privacy Notice (collectively, the “Service”). This Privacy Notice describes how Senior Medicare Patrol collects, uses, and shares service-related information about you. This Privacy Notice does not apply to information or data about you collected as received outside of the Service except to the extent it is combined with information or data collected by us via the Service.
By using our Service, you agree to our Terms of Service and consent to our collection, use, and disclosure practices and other activities as described in this Privacy Notice.
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form and the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help with spam detection.
An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.
Media
If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors can download and extract any location data from images on the website.
Pixels
“Pixels” are tiny graphics with unique identifiers used to track web users’ online movements. Unlike cookies, which are stored on a computer’s hard drive, pixels are small graphics about the size of the period at the end of the sentence and are embedded invisibly on web pages or in HTML-based emails. Our third-party analytics providers may place pixels on the Site that track what other websites you visit (both before and after visiting the site). Our third-party analytics providers use information obtained from pixels to help us improve our business and the Service. We do not control the use of pixels by third parties.
Contact Form
Our contact form will send us the contact data you input via email to better understand what services you are looking for. In addition, our contact form will send us the contact email, number, and name you input in the form. We do not keep your information to spam you with emails or calls. We use the data on the form to reply to any inquiries submitted.
Cookies
If you leave a comment on our site, you may opt-in to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. These are for your convenience, so you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.
If you have an account and log in to this site, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.
When you log in, we will set up several cookies to save your login information and screen display choices. Login cookies last two days, and screen options cookies last a year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.
Suppose you edit or publish an article; an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after one day.
Embedded Content from Other Websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
Analytics
Like millions of other website owners, we use Google Analytics on www.seniormedicarepatrol.com.
Google Analytics is software that grabs data about our visitors (you). It acts as an advanced server log.
- What does Google Analytics record?
- What website you came from to get here.
- How long you stay.
- What kind of device you’re using or a computer.
- What pages you visit.
- How long you’re on those pages.
- And a bit more.
What do we do with your data?
The tracking information allows us to understand better the users who visit our site and what content they’re reading. This allows us to make better design decisions and provide quality content to our visitors.
Occasionally, we will compile aggregate statistics about the visitors this site receives and the browsers being used. No personally identifying data is included in this type of reporting.
Google Analytics uses cookies and pixels to collect demographic and interest-level information and usage information from users that visit the Service, including but not limited to information about the pages where users enter and exit the Service and what pages users view on the Service, time spent, browser, operating system, and IP address. Cookies and pixels allow Google to recognize when a user visits the Service and when the user visits other websites. Google uses the information it collects from the Service and other websites to share with us and other website operators information about users, including age range, gender, geographic regions, general interests, and details about devices used to visit websites and purchase items. We take reasonable measures to prevent the linking of information we receive from Google with any of your personally identifiable information. For more information regarding Google’s use of cookies and collection and use of information, see the Google Privacy Policy. To opt out of Google Analytics, please visit the Google Analytics Opt-Out Page to learn about opting out and installing the appropriate browser add-on.
Our activity falls within the bounds of the Google Analytics Terms of Service.
How Long Do We Retain Your Data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can automatically recognize and approve any follow-up comments instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For users who register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
What Rights You Have Over Your Data
If you have an account on this site or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we must keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Where We Send Your Data
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service. In addition, the contact form will include a spam detection service to filter out spam inquiries. We use Google reCAPTCHA for the spam detection service on the contact forms. Google reCAPTCHA is a free service that protects the site from spam and abuse. It uses advanced risk analysis techniques to tell humans and bots apart. Many valid human users will pass the reCAPTCHA challenge with the new API without solving a CAPTCHA. reCAPTCHA is subject to the Google Privacy Policy and Terms of Use.” In addition, Google Analytics will analyze the user data mentioned above to provide us with reports to analyze what we are doing right and what we can improve on. You can view the full policy at Google Analytics Terms of Service for more information on their policy.
Furthermore, we use third-party software to provide security for our website, including firewalls.
Changes and Updates to the Privacy Policy
We reserve the right to revise this Privacy Policy by updating it and posting it at https://www.seniormedicarepatrol.com/privacy-policy/, with the new terms taking effect on the posting date. You should periodically review this Privacy Policy to ensure you know the most current version. Your use of the Service after the Effective Date posted above constitutes your acceptance of the updated Privacy Policy.
