Internet Privacy Policy
We are committed to protecting your privacy and to developing technology that gives you a secure online experience. You can travel through most of our site without giving us any information about yourself, but sometimes we do need information to provide services that you request. This statement of privacy explains data collection and use in those situations. This privacy statement explains data collection and use practices of American Ambulance.com.
Information Collection and Use
Information Collection
American Ambulance is the sole owner of the information collected on americanambulance.com. American Ambulance collects information from our users at different points on our Website.
Information Use
Any personally identifiable information that is requested and voluntarily provided by the user is used solely for its primary purpose only. For example, our Online Application will collect information that a prospective applicant fills in and submits to our Human Resources department. That information will not be saved or used for any other purpose on the website.
We do however collect aggregate data for statistical purposes, but it is not tied to any personally identifiable information that the user may have provided.
Cookies
A cookie is a piece of data stored on the user's computer tied to information about the user. Usage of a cookie is in no way linked to any personally identifiable information while on our site. We use both session ID cookies and persistent cookies. For the session ID cookie, once users close the browser, the cookie simply terminates. A persistent cookie is a small text file stored on the user's hard drive for an extended period of time. Persistent cookies can be removed by following Internet browser help file directions.
If users reject the cookie, they may still access our site. The only drawback to this is that the user will be limited in some areas of our site. For example, the user will not be able to submit an Online Employment Application. Rejection of the cookie will also affect the aggregate statistical data that is logged on the web server for administrative purposes. Persistent cookies enable us to track the interests of our users as a whole to enhance the experience on our site.
No data contained in the cookies is shared with any third party advertiser or affiliate.
Analytics
We track data for statistical purposes only. This includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, referring/exit pages, platform type, date/time stamp, and number of clicks to analyze trends, administer the site, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. IP addresses, etc. are not linked to personally identifiable information.
Communications from the Site
We only contact users in response to messages they send to us.
Sharing
Legal Disclaimer
Though we make every effort to preserve user privacy, we may need to disclose personal information when required by law wherein we have a good-faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with a current judicial proceeding, a court order or legal process. We do not Share Personal Information with Third Parties.
Links
This Web site contains links to other sites. Please be aware that we, American Ambulance, are not responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each and every Website that collects personally identifiable information. This privacy statement applies solely to information collected by this Web site.
Surveys & Contests
From time-to-time, our site requests information from users via surveys or contests. Participation in these surveys or contests is completely voluntary and the user therefore has a choice whether or not to disclose this information. The requested information typically includes contact information (such as name and shipping address), and demographic information (such as zip code). Anonymous survey information will be used for purposes of monitoring or improving the use and satisfaction of this site. Users' personally identifiable information is not shared with third parties. Though we may use an intermediary to conduct these surveys or contests, they may not use users' personally identifiable information for any secondary purposes.
Security
This Web site takes every precaution to protect our users' information. When users submit sensitive information via the Web site, their information is protected both online and off-line.
While we protect sensitive information online, we also do everything in our power to protect user-information off-line. All of our users' information, not just the sensitive information mentioned above, is restricted in our offices. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job (for example, the website's administrator) are granted access to personally identifiable information. Furthermore, all employees are kept up-to-date on our security and privacy practices. Annually, as well as any time new policies are added, our employees are notified and/or reminded about the importance we place on privacy, and what they can do to ensure our users' information is protected. Finally, the servers that store personally identifiable information are in a secure environment, in a locked facility.
If users have any questions about the security at our Website, users can send an email to webmaster@americanambulance.com.
Notification of Changes
If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes to this privacy statement and other places we deem appropriate so our users are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it. We will use information in accordance with the privacy policy under which the information was collected.
If, however, we are going to use users' personally identifiable information in a manner different from that stated at the time of collection we will notify users via email. Users will have a choice as to whether or not we use their information in this different manner. However, if users have opted out of all communication with the site then they will not be contacted, nor will their personal information be used in this new manner. In addition, if we make any material changes in our privacy practices that do not affect user information already stored in our database, we will post a prominent notice on our Web site notifying users of the change.
