Privacy Policy

Last Modified Date: August 2021

We maintain information confidentiality and comply with applicable regulatory requirements, including protecting your Personal Information (defined below).

Acceptance of Terms

This privacy policy (“Privacy Policy”) covers our online privacy practices with respect to use and/or disclosure of information we may collect from you when you access or use our services through this website (collectively “Services”). This Privacy Policy does not apply to information collected through other means, such as by telephone or in person or by other third parties that are not part of our Services. Please review our privacy practices and contact us at privacy@easibuy.com if you have questions.

By accessing and using our Services, you acknowledge and fully understand our Privacy Policy and freely consent to the information collection and use practices described in this Privacy Policy. IF YOU DO NOT CONSENT TO THE INFORMATION COLLECTION AND USE PRACTICES DESCRIBED BELOW, YOU MUST IMMEDIATELY CEASE ANY ACCESS OR USE OF OUR SERVICES.

Information Collected

Our Services may permit you the opportunity to provide us with Personal Information. As used in this Privacy Policy, “Personal information” means any information that may be used, either alone or in combination with other information, to personally identify an individual as defined by applicable state laws as noted below.

We collect certain information, including Personal Information, from and about our users in three ways:

  • directly from you;
  • directly from our web server logs; or
  • cookies and web beacons.
Information Provided by You

We and our service providers collect Personal Information through online forms to provide certain features of the Services to you. For example, if applying for a job through the website, we may request you to fill out a form with information such as your name, e-mail address, phone number, and work experience. If you do not provide the information required to submit the forms, we may not be able to provide you with related features and services.

In some cases, you may have the opportunity to enter into our secure forms any content that you choose. You are responsible for such content and we reserve the right to use such content as part of our Services.

Web Server Logs

When you access or use our Services, we may track information to administer our Services and analyze its usage. Examples of information we may track include, without limitation:

  • Your Internet protocol address;
  • The kind of browser or computer you use;
  • Number of links you click within our Services;
  • State or country from which you accessed our Services;
  • Date and time of your visit;
  • Name of your Internet service provider;
  • Third party websites you linked to or from our Services; and
  • Pages or information you viewed on our Services.

We use this information to analyze and improve our Services, monitor traffic and usage patterns for information security purposes, and to help make our Services more useful.

Cookies and Web Beacons

A “cookie” is a small text file that may be transferred to your computer’s hard drive to personalize our services for you and collect information regarding usage of our Services. Each computer is assigned a different cookie that contains a random, unique identifier. Our Services may use two different types of cookies: a “session” cookie, which is required to track a user session, for example, and which expires shortly after the session ends, and a “persistent” cookie, used to track unique visits to the Portal (defined below), as well as how the user arrived at the Portal (for example, through an email link or from a referral link), and the type of user (patient, provider, consumer, etc.). So that users are not counted twice, this cookie can “persist” anywhere from six months to two years.

Your browser software can be set to warn you of cookies or reject all cookies. Most browsers offer instructions on how to reset the browser to reject cookies in the “Help” section of the toolbar. If you reject our cookie, this may disable some of the functionality of our Services and you may not be able to use certain services.

Cookies, to the best of our knowledge, cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. For example, if you personalize a web page, or navigate within a website, a cookie helps the website to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of delivering relevant content and eases website navigation by providing and saving your preferences and login information as well as providing personalized functionality.

We may use Google Analytics on our site to help us analyze the traffic on our site. For more information on Google Analytics’ processing of Personal Information, please see http://www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/.” By using a browser plugin provided by Google, you can opt out of Google Analytics.

Some of features of our Services (such as social media widgets that allow you to share content) may use cookies or other methods to gather information regarding your use of the Services, and may combine the information in these cookies with any of Personal Information about you that they may have. The use of such information by a third party depends on the privacy policy of that third party.

Since sponsors or partners of the website may use their own cookies when you click on a hypertext link to their website or service, you should carefully review the privacy policy of other websites to which you link from our Services.

A “web beacon,” “clear GIF,” “web bug,” or “pixel tag” is a tiny graphic file with a unique identifier that is similar in function to a cookie, but would allow us to count the number of users that have visited certain pages or screens of our websites, and to help determine the effectiveness of promotional or advertising campaigns. When used in HTML-formatted email messages, web beacons can tell the sender whether and when the email has been opened. In contrast to cookies, which may be stored on your computer’s hard drive, web beacons are typically embedded invisibly on pages or screens. We may use web beacons in providing the Services.

We reserve the right to share aggregated site statistics monitored by cookies and web beacons with our affiliates and partner companies.

Geolocation Data

We do not collect precise information (e.g., GPS data; latitude and longitude) concerning the location from which you access the Services, but we collect information on your region or postal code to help us gather information useful for improving the relevance of our content and securing our Services.

Third Party Advertising

We may allow third party advertising companies to serve ads when you access or use our Services. These companies use non-personally identifiable information regarding your access and use of our Services and other websites, such as pages viewed, date and time of your visit, and number of times you have viewed an ad (but not your name, address, or other personal information), to serve ads to you on our Services and other websites that may be of interest to you. In the course of serving advertisements to our Services, our third party advertiser may place or recognize a unique cookie on your browser. In addition, we or other third party advertiser, may use web beacons to help manage our online advertising. This allows us or a third party advertiser to learn which banner ads bring users to our Services.

Additional Privacy Policies for Portal

As a service to our members, we also provide provisional access to a Member Portal which includes, among other things, information and resources regarding HealthTrust agreements, suppliers and communications (the “Portal”). The following additional privacy terms and protections apply to use of the Portal.

If you submit or we collect Personal Information through our Services, then such Personal Information may be used in the following ways: (i) to provide, analyze, administer, and improve our Services; (ii) to contact you in connection with our Services and appointments, events or offerings that you may have registered for; (iii) to identify and authenticate your access to the parts of our Portal or other password-protected Services that you are authorized to access; (iv) to send you surveys; (v) for recruiting and human resources administration purposes; (vi) to protect our rights or our property and to ensure the technical functionality and security of our Services; and (vii) as required to meet our legal and regulatory obligations.

If you are a visitor from the European Economic Area, our legal basis for collecting and using the information described in this Privacy Policy will depend on the information concerned and the context in which we collect it. We collect information from you:

  • where we need it to perform our contract with you (i.e., our Terms of Use);
  • where the processing is in our legitimate interests such as securing and improving our Services, for example (provided that these aren’t overridden by your interests or rights);
  • where the processing is for the provision of healthcare or the management of healthcare services (e.g., health information collected from you or made accessible to you through the Portal in accordance with legal requirements governing the confidentiality of such information); or
  • if we otherwise have your consent.

If you have questions about or need further information concerning the legal basis on which we collect and use your information, please contact us using the contact details provided under the “Contact Us” section below or email us at privacy@easibuy.com.

How Else May Your Information Be Used And Disclosed?
We do not sell, lease, rent or otherwise disclose the Personal Information collected from our Services to third parties unless otherwise stated below or with your consent.
  • Our Third Party Providers. We transfer Personal Information to third party service providers to perform tasks on our behalf and to assist us in providing our Services. For example, we may use third party service providers for security, and website analytics. We use commercially reasonable efforts to only engage or interact with third party service providers and partners that post a privacy policy governing their processing of Personal Information, and require our service providers to maintain confidentiality and comply with applicable laws in the processing of Personal Information.
  • In the Event of Merger, Sale, Divestitures or Change of Control. We may transfer or assign Personal Information to a third party entity that acquires or is merged with us as part of a merger, acquisition, sale, or other change of control.
  • Other Disclosures. We may disclose Personal Information about you if we have a good faith belief that disclosure of such information is helpful or reasonably necessary to: (i) comply with any applicable law, regulation, legal process or governmental request; (ii) enforce our terms of use, including investigations of potential violations thereof; (iii) detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud or security issues; or (iv) protect against harm to our or third parties’ rights, property or safety.
In addition to the uses and disclosures of information outlined above, if you use the Portal, your information may also be used and disclosed as follows:
  • Authorized Representatives. If another individual is managing your account on your behalf (for example, a mother managing the account of her son), as authorized by you or as a personal representative under applicable law, that person can view all Personal Information about you in the Portal.

In addition to the uses and disclosures of information outlined above, your information may also be used and disclosed as follows:

Information Security

No website can guarantee security, but we maintain industry accepted physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to protect your personal information collected via our Services in compliance with applicable law. Please see the Terms of Use via the website homepage (“Terms of Use”) for more specific information about information security and your responsibilities.

What can I do to protect my Privacy?

In order to protect your privacy, you should:

  • Never share your username or password;
  • Always sign out when you are finished using the Portal;
  • Use only secure web browsers;
  • Employ common anti-virus and anti-malware tools on your system to keep it safe;
  • Use a strong password with a combination of letters and numbers;
  • Change your password often; and
  • Notify us immediately if you believe your login and/or password have been compromised at privacy@easibuy.com.

If you share your Portal username and password with another person, this will allow that person to see your confidential information. We have no responsibility concerning any breach of your confidential information due to your sharing or losing your user name or password.

Third Party Websites

If you use the Portal to link to another third party website, you may decide to disclose personal information at that website. In contacting that third party website, or in providing information on that website, that third party may obtain personal information about you. This Privacy Policy does not apply when you leave the Portal and go to a third party website from the Portal. We encourage you to be aware when you leave the Portal and to read the privacy statements of each third party website that collects personally identifiable information.

User Communications

Email communications that you send to us via the email links on our Services may be shared with a customer service representative, employee or agent that is most able to address your inquiry. We make reasonable efforts to respond in a timely fashion once communications are received. Once we have responded to your communication, it is discarded or archived, depending on the nature of the inquiry and all applicable laws, rules and regulations.

The email functionality on our Services does not provide a completely secure and confidential means of communication. It is possible that your email communication may be accessed or viewed by another Internet user while in transit to us. If you wish to keep your communication private, do not use our email.

Your California Privacy Rights

Under California Law, California residents have the right to request in writing from businesses with whom they have an established business relationship, (a) a list of the categories of personal information, such as name, e-mail and mailing address and the type of services provided to the customer, that a business has disclosed to third parties (including affiliates that are separate legal entities) during the immediately preceding calendar year for the third parties’ direct marketing purposes; and (b) the names and addresses of all such third parties. To request the above information, please contact us at privacy@easibuy.com with a reference to California Disclosure Information.

Please note that we are only required to respond to each customer once per calendar year.

California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”)
At this time, EasiBuy does not engage in collection, handling or use of consumer information. However, in the event EasiBuy does so, the following additional terms apply to California residents (“Consumers”). For the purposes of this section only, “Personal Information” means information that identifies, relates to, describes, references, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular Consumer or household. Consumers have the following rights:
