PRIVACY POLICY

VasWeb Vasectomy Doctors is not required by HIPAA (the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996) to have a privacy policy because we share no personal health-related information electronically with any other entities, that is, we do not engage in electronic billing or fund transfers. Nonetheless, we have a policy that describes how the information that you may submit to us through VasWeb Doctors may and may not be used, in essence our own privacy policy.

While we have the ability, as does every website, to count the number of visitors to the site, we make no effort to trace the identity of any computer that is used to view the site. You are welcome to visit all pages of VasWeb Doctors anonymously.

HOW WE COLLECT, USE AND PROTECT PERSONAL INFORMATION

The information provided when you submit your completed Vasectomy Pre-Registration Form goes to a secure database that resides on the off-site server for the rest of vaswebdoctors.com. We do not have a login system that allows you to change the information submitted at an earlier date, but when you come to the office, a printed summary of the information that you submitted will be presented to you for approval. Only this summary, signed by you, becomes part of your formal permanent record. By necessity, a few records may be seen by our two-person database developer team when they make sure that the database is functioning properly. Only they and the staff of your doctor's office have access through passwords to the data that you submit. The information is not shared with anyone except your other health care providers, and with them only when you provide permission to do so as you fill out the Registration Form. Please refer also to the privacy policy of your VasWeb Doctors practitioner.
