Privacy
Policy of MedTours Corp.
Medtours
Corp. is committed to respecting your privacy. We have designed
our website so that you may visit it without identifying yourself or
revealing any personal information, unless you opt to do so.
Once you opt to provide personally identifiable information (any
information by which you can be identified such as your name,
address, telephone number, e-mail address and credit card number), it
will only be used to support your customer relationship with us and
for our own internal purposes including marketing and research,
customization or our website(s) and improving the content of our
website(s). We will, of course, also share such information
with the hospitals and health care providers in our network that
you have selected in order to assist you in seeking health care
alternatives.
When
you make a reservation online or by phone through our case
agent, you will be asked for your name, address, phone number, e-mail
address and credit card information. This information is used
to contact you for customer service, to guaranty your reservation
with our travel suppliers and/ or to bill you for your
travel purchase.
We
may also collect your IP
address, browser type,
domain name, access times and referring Web site address. This
information is collected both during registration on a site or in
response to specific requests.
MTC
will not sell, rent, or lease your personally identifiable
information to third parties. Unless we have your permission or
are required by law, regulation or
court order, we will only share the
personal data you provide online with other third-party vendors that
are acting to complete reservation services. We do not
knowingly permit the site to be used by any person under the age of
eighteen and we do not knowingly collect any personal information
from children (meaning those younger than thirteen years of age).
We will cooperate with law enforcement authorities.
We
may, at times, produce reports for advertisers containing aggregate
information about our users such as demographic, age and online usage
information. This allows us to work more closely with advertisers to
provide content and offers that are most relevant to our users. We
will never include any personal information of our users in these
reports.
MTC
will not use or share the personally identifiable information
provided to us online in ways unrelated to the purposes described
above without letting you know and offering you a choice.
Please be aware that our website and those of our affiliates may
contain links to other websites, and that the privacy practices of
these other websites may differ from those of MTC. This Privacy
Policy does not apply to other websites. We encourage you to
read the privacy policies of all other websites you visit.
We
may send you emails with information that you might find of
interest. If you would rather not receive them, please reply
"unsubscribe" in the subject field or follow the
instructions in each e-mail message.
MTC
strives to keep you personally identifiable information accurate.
We make every effort to provide you with access to your registration
data so that you may update or correct your information.
MTC
is committed to protecting the security of your information. To
prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the
appropriate use of information, we have put in place physical,
electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the
information we collect online.
These
provisions may also apply to client:
a) MTC's
employees are made aware of its privacy practices through periodic
communications and training. We limit access to private and
confidential data only to those employees with a specific need to
retrieve this information and we store data on multiple service
systems, in controlled, secure environments. To maintain our level of
security, we conduct both internal reviews and external audits of our
security measures and procedures on a regular basis.
b) In
developing MTC's business, MTC might sell certain assets or the
company, or parts of it, may be sold, merged or otherwise
transferred. In such transactions, user information, whether
personally identifiable or otherwise, may be one of the transferred
assets.
c) Use
of cookies
Your
browser offers so-called "cookies" which, if you allow
their use, store small amounts of data on your computer when you
visit a web site. Cookies do not contain any personally identifiable
information about you and therefore cannot be used to identify you
personally. Cookies simply assist us in tracking which of our
features you like best. Cookies also enable us to customize our
content according to your preferences. You have the ability to accept
or decline cookies by modifying your browser and our web sites are
viewable even if you disable the cookie function on your browser.
However, if you disable cookies, some advanced and customized
features of our site, as well as other web sites, will not be
available to you.

of the banner ads displayed in our Web sites are provided by outside
companies. These ads contain cookies. While we use cookies in other
parts of our web sites, cookies received with banner ads are
collected by our advertisers and we do not have access to this
information. We use a reputable third party to serve some or all of
the advertisements that are placed within our sites and they may use
information (not including personally identifiable information) about
your visits to our sites and other sites to assist in serving
advertisements to you.
d)
Use of Web Beacons
Some
of our web pages may contain electronic images known as Web beacons,
which are also called single-pixel gifs. These images allow us to
count users who have visited those pages and to deliver co-branded
services. We also may include Web beacons in promotional e-mail
messages or newsletters in order to count how many messages have been
opened and acted upon. Web beacons are not used to access your
personally identifiable information but they are a technique we use
to compile aggregated statistics about our Web site usage. Web
beacons collect only a limited set of information including a cookie
number, time and date of a page view, originating IP address, and a
description of the page on which the Web beacon resides. Some of our
Web pages may also contain Web beacons placed there by our
advertising partners to help us determine the effectiveness of our
advertising campaigns.
Changes
in our Privacy Policy
From
time to time we may make changes to our privacy policy If we make
changes, we will post them on our site to make users aware of what
the changes are so users will always be aware of what information we
collect, how we use it, and when we may disclose it. A User is bound
by any minor changes to the policy when she or he uses the site after
those changes have been posted If, however, we are going to use
users' personally identifiable information in a manner materially
different from that stated at the time of collection we will notify
by posting a notice on our Web site for 30 days.
