Privacy Policy
The Surgical Weight
Control Center (hereinafter referred to as SWCC) is committed to earning your trust
and confidence. To better protect privacy, we provide this notice explaining our
information collection practices.
SWCC strongly believes in a consumer's right to privacy. SWCC does not engage in
the distribution, sale or use of personally identifiable information about Web Users,
such as email address, name, phone number and street address.
SWCC also complies with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act
(HIPPAA) of 1996.
Technology
SWCC uses a feature of Internet browsers called "pixels", also known as clear gif
technology, or action tags. Pixels are tiny colorless image files placed in a web
page, which are served by SWCC and counted when served. Pixels are used to track
the completion of transactions and submittal of applications.
There are many misconceptions about pixels, some of which we will try to clarify.
Pixels do not tell us an e-mail address or any other personally identifiable information.
They merely allow SWCC to track the effectiveness of campaigns through the pixel's
tracking capabilities. SWCC does not and cannot use pixels to retrieve personal
information from your computer.
Information Collection and Use
As part of our on-going efforts to ensure the best possible experience for all recipients
of SWCC advertising, we use pixels to collect data from browsers to aggregate statistical
information. This includes IP addresses, browser types, operating systems, domain
names, access times and referring website addresses. This information is used for
the operation of the service, to maintain quality of the service, and to provide
general statistics regarding use of SWCC.
Any personal information gathered is information you voluntarily provided to SWCC.
