Information Collection and Use

The Service asks you to enter an identifier and password to sign in. We require customers who register to use the services offered on our Sites (collectively, the "Service") to give us contact information, such as their name, company name, address, phone number, and e-mail address, and financial qualification and billing information, such as billing name and address, and checking account information or credit card number.

We will use the e-mail address you provide when you create your account to send you an e-mail requesting that you validate your email address, to include in sharing invitations you send through the Service and to send you Service notifications, such as e-mail notification that information is available to add to your account. This e-mail address can be changed at any time from the Profile page in your account.

e-Monitoring Services uses the information that we collect to set up the Service for customers. We may also use the information to contact customers to discuss the Service that we provide, and to send information regarding our company, service or partners, such as promotions and events. Customers can opt out of being contacted by us, or receiving such information from us, at any time by clicking here and submitting their email.

All financial and billing information that we collect through the Site is used solely to check the qualifications of prospective customers and to bill for the Service. This billing information is not used by RememberItNow! for marketing or promotional purposes. RememberItNow! uses a third-party intermediary to manage the credit card processing. This intermediary is solely a link in the distribution chain, and is not permitted to store, retain, or use the information provided, except for the sole purpose of credit card processing.

Customers of the Service will be using the Site to host data and information ("Data"). e-Monitoring Services will not review, share, distribute, print, or reference any such Data except as provided in the e-Monitoring Services Terms of Service ", or as may be required by law. Individual records may at times be viewed or accessed only for the purpose of resolving a problem, support issue, or suspected violation of the Terms of Service, AUP, or as may be required by law. Of course, customers are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality and security of their user registration and password.

We do obtain the customer's consent prior to posting the testimonial to post their name along with their testimonial.

We are not responsible for the personally-identifiable information a user chooses to post to our website with their testimonial.

Sharing your Personal Health Information with Those you Trust

A key value of the Service is the ability to share your health information with people and services who can help you meet your health-related goals. For example, you can share health information from records you control:

to co-manage the health of a family member
to use products and services that can improve or monitor your health
to coordinate care provided by caregivers
to consult with your health care provider

If you share your information with others, you can view a list of who has access to your information and you can revoke sharing privileges at any time. When you revoke someones ability to read your health information, that party will no longer be able to read your information, but may have already seen or may retain a copy of the information.

You can share information in a health record you are custodian of with another person by sending a sharing invitation e-mail through the Service. If the person accepts your sharing invitation and has or creates a e-Monitoring Services account, you have given him or her access to that information. You can specify how long they have access (account access does not expire but, like all sharing access, it can be revoked at any time) and whether they can modify the information in the record.

You can also choose to grant administrator access to other persons, such as your spouse, for any record of which you are an administrator. Administrator access is the broadest level of access, so you should think carefully before you grant administrator access to a record. Every administrator of a record has the same access to the record, including accessing, modifying, deleting, and sharing all the information in the record.

Sharing records with other Service users

When you create an account, you become the administrator of that account. As the account administrator, you decide what level of access to grant other users of the Service. The Service creates a fixed list of each access or change by users, as well as a full history of changes to each record.

The level of access you can grant to others as an account administrator includes the ability to:

View data
Add/Change medications and events
Add/Change medical history
Add/Change contacts
Add journal entries
Add readings for charts
Reminders & Profile access
Users & Plan/Billing access
Upload documents

Access becomes active only when the invited user accepts the invitation. Administrator access is the highest level of access. An administrator of a health record can:

View data
Add/Change contacts
Add journal entries
Add readings for charts
Adjust reminder settings and profile information
Grant to others any level of access to the account, including administration access
Revoke the access of any user including other administrators, but not the owner of the account
Change billing information or cancel the account

Because inappropriate granting of access could allow a grantee to violate your privacy or make errors in updating your healthcare, we urge you to consider all the consequences carefully before you grant access to your records.
