Introduction

We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting it through our compliance with this Policy.  This Policy describes the types of information we may collect from you or that you may provide when you visit the Portal www.seniorportal.com (our “Portal”) or when you use our web-based residential community engagement Portal (together with the Portal, our “Portal”), and our practices for collecting, using, maintaining, protecting and disclosing that information.  

This Policy applies to any information that we collect on the Portal, including any information in any e-mails, posts, texts and other electronic messages between you and the Portal and any information about you transferred to the Portal from other Portals.  This Policy does not apply to any information that we collect by any other means, including offline collection. This Policy also does not apply to information you share with your community management or staff members or agents thereof (your “Community”)—your Community has its own, separate policies and practices for how they use, maintain, protect and disclose information collected through the Portal and we encourage you to contact your Community directly and/or review their applicable privacy policies.

Please read this Policy carefully to understand our policies and practices regarding your information and how we will treat it.  If you do not agree with our policies and practices, you can choose not to use our Portal. By accessing or using our Portal, you agree to this Privacy Policy.  This Policy may change from time to time. Your continued use of the Portal after we make changes is deemed to be acceptance of those changes, so please check the Policy periodically for updates.

 

What Is Considered “Personal Information” and “Personal Health Information”?

Information we collect on our Portal falls into one of three categories:

  1. Information by which you may be personally identified, including but not limited to first and last name; physical street address; e-mail address; telephone number, including a mobile telephone number; and any other information collected that is combined with one or more of the categories of information listed here.
  2. Information that relates to your past, present, or future physical or mental health or condition; the provision of health care to you; or the past, present or future payment for the provision of health care to you.
  3. Other information that is about you but does not identify you personally, including but not limited to certain demographic information or information about which buttons or links users click on most frequently when they access our Portal.

For the purposes of this privacy Policy, information listed in the first category above is considered to be your “Personal Information.”  If information in the second category above is combined in any way with your Personal Information, or if there is a reasonable basis to believe that information alone can be used to identify you, it is considered to be your “Personal Health Information.”  All other information that does not identify you individually or that is “de-identified” is NOT considered Personal Information or Personal Health Information.

Information We Collect About You and How We Collect It

Direct Collection

The principal way we receive Personal Information about you is when you choose to provide it to us directly by filling out registration forms, creating a personal profile, and/or interacting with certain tools available to you via the Portal.  

  • At Registration.  When you first register for the Portal and your details are entered into our system by you or by your Community, we collect several types of information about you, including: your first and last name; a “user” or “screen” name for use on the Portal; contact information such as your telephone number, e-mail address and physical address; and a photo of yourself.
  • When You Create a Personal Profile.  If you choose to create a personal profile on the Portal, you may choose to include, in addition to the registration details noted above, some or all of the following: additional photos of yourself or otherwise as well as information about your hobbies, interests and activities.
  • When You Engage With the Portal’s Health/Wellness Tracker Application(s).  If you choose to utilize the Portal’s health/wellness tracker application (should this option be made available to you by your Community), we may collect both Personal Information and Personal Health Information through such application.  
  • User Contributions.  You also may provide information to be posted, published or displayed on public areas of the Portal (such as your personal profile, events pages, or in personal messages between you and other residents), including additional information about yourself or your interests (collectively, “User Contributions”).  Your User Contributions, including any Personal Information you include within your User Contributions, are posted on and transmitted to others at your own risk.  We cannot control the actions of other users of the Portal with whom you may choose to share your User Contributions. Therefore, we cannot and do not guarantee that your User Contributions will not be viewed by unauthorized persons.

Automatic Collection

When you access, use and navigate through the Portal, the Portal may use certain technologies (described below) to collect automatically the following information:

  • Traffic Data / Usage Details. When you access and use the Portal, we may collect automatically certain details of your access to and use of the Portal, including traffic data, logs, and other communication data, your navigation paths through the Portal, the resources that you access and use on or through the Portal and the referring and exit pages.  
  • Computer and Device Information. When you access and use the Portal, we may collect information about your computer or mobile device and your internet connection, including your IP address or other similar “persistent identifiers,” your operating system, your browser type, your mobile device’s unique device identifier, your mobile network information and your device’s telephone number.

If you do not want us to collect this information automatically your choice is to not access or use the Portal.

We use the following technologies for automatic information collection:

  • Cookies (or mobile cookies). A cookie is a small file placed on your computer or mobile device. It may be possible to refuse to accept cookies by activating the appropriate setting on your browser or mobile device. However, if you select this setting you may be unable to access certain parts or features of the Portal.
  • Web Beacons. Certain pages or portions of the Portal may contain small electronic files known as web beacons (also referred to as clear gifs, pixel tags and single-pixel gifs) that permit us, for example, to count users who have visited those pages and for other related usage statistics (for example, recording the popularity of certain content and verifying system and server integrity).
  • Embedded Code.  Certain pages or portions of the Portal may use embedded hidden code to collect information about usage flows through the Portal and other similar usage statistics.

Online Tracking and How We Respond to “Do Not Track” Signals

Tracking involves the use of cookies, web beacons or other embedded code or tracking technologies to collect, analyze and store information on a user’s behavior over time on multiple sites, including information on the sites visited, products viewed, products purchased and other online interactions.  Tracking information can be used to enable companies to make interest-based (behavioral) advertising available to users on multiple sites that they visit.

We do not currently collect Personal Information about your on-line activities over time across third party sites for tracking purposes.  We do not currently allow third parties to collect Personal Information on the Portal that could be used by them to analyze and store information about your on-line activities over time and across third party sites for tracking purposes. Therefore, the Portal does not and will not respond to any “DO NOT TRACK” signals sent by your browser or otherwise.

We urge you to be careful about giving out information in public areas of the Portal such as message boards. The information you share in public areas may be viewed by any user of the Portal.

Unfortunately, the transmission of information over the Internet is not completely secure.  Although we have implemented security measures that we think are adequate, we cannot guarantee the security of your Personal Information transmitted to our Portal.  Any transmission of Personal Information is at your own risk. We are not responsible for circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures contained on the Portal.
