Samarion has created this Privacy Statement to demonstrate our commitment to privacy.

INFORMATION WE COLLECT AND HOW WE USE IT

Personal Information. Our website's forms may require users to give us contact information (name and email address, for example), unique identifiers, facility names and licensed bed capacity and demographic information (zip code or state, for instance). We use customer contact information from the registration form to send the user information about our company. Samarion will not distribute, sell, trade, or disclose to third parties any personally identifiable information derived from the use of our website without the consent of the customer.

In addition, we collect certain aggregate and non-personal information when you visit this website. Aggregate and non-personal information does not relate to a single identifier visitor. It tells us such things as how many users visited our website and which pages were accessed. By collecting this information, we learn how to best tailor our website to our visitors. We collect this information through "cookie" technology.

Cookies. Like many companies, we use the browser cookie on this website. Browser cookies are bits of text placed on your computer's hard drive when you visit certain websites. We use browser cookies to tell us, for example, whether you visited us before or if you are a new visitor, and to help us identify website features in which you may have the greatest interest. Browser cookies may enhance your online experience by saving your preferences while you are visiting a particular website. Cookies will enable us to provide a more personalized and convenient process to you, the user. Cookies record information such as your computer's IP address, the time and date you accessed this website, your browser and operation system and other information.

INFORMATION WE SHARE. We do not sell or otherwise disclose personal information about our website visitors, except as described here. We may share information provided by visitors with service providers we have retained to provide or perform services on our behalf. These service providers are contractually restricted from using or disclosing the information except as necessary to perform services on our behalf or to comply with legal requirements. In addition, we may disclose information about you (i) if we are required to do so by law or legal process, (ii) to law enforcement authorities or other government officials, or (iii) when we believe disclosure is necessary or appropriate to prevent physical harm or financial loss or in connection with an investigation of suspected or actual illegal activity.

Transfer. We reserve the right to transfer any information we have about you in the event we sell or transfer a portion of our business or assets. Should such a sale or transfer occur, we will use reasonable efforts to direct the transferee to use personal information we have provided through this website in a manner that is consistent with this Privacy Statement.

Children's Privacy. This website is not directed to children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13. If we become aware we have inadvertently received personal information from a visitor under the age of 13 on this website, we will delete the information from our records.

How We Protect Personal Information. This Privacy Statement may be updated periodically and without prior notice to you to reflect changes in our online information practices. We will post a prominent notice on this website to notify you of significant changes to our Privacy Statement and indicate at the top of the statement when it was most recently updated.
