Painedu.com PRIVACY POLICY
Your privacy on the Internet is important to us. As a requirement for registration, we obtain certain types of information about PainEDU.org (“Web Site”) users. The following describes this information, what we do with it, and how to correct or change the information if you should desire to do so.
INFORMATION COLLECTED BY PAINEDU.ORG
The Web Site collects two types of information from users: personal data (such as names and e-mail addresses); and aggregated information (such as information about traffic patterns on www.painedu.org, for example, how many users log into the Web Site on a regular basis daily, weekly etc.).
Personal Data
Personal data is collected through the registration process and will be used for these purposes: (1) to accurately record information for purposes of obtaining CME or CEU credits, and (2) to record information which will allow Inflexxion, Inc. to aggregate that data in ways that may help us better understand our subscribers and their needs. Your personal data will not be sold, given away or used for selling purposes. We may use your Personal Information to provide you with information or email newsletters that you have requested, to correspond with you, and to improve the Site and our program offerings. You can unsubscribe by clicking “unsubscribe” at the bottom of the email.
We do not sell, rent or lease your Personal Information to third parties. We may share your Personal Information with third parties that perform services on our behalf in connection with the Site. We reserve the right to share your Personal Information with third parties if we determine, in our sole discretion, that such action is necessary: (a) to comply with legal requirements or with legal process served upon us, or (b) to protect the interests of Inflexxion, Inc.
Aggregated Information
Aggregated information is collected through various methods: It may come from survey information and/or site registrations, and/or IP addresses. An IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer whenever you're surfing the Web. Web servers, the computers that "serve up" web pages, automatically identify this IP address, and when you request a page from PainEDU.org, our servers log your IP address. The Web Site collects IP addresses for the purposes of system administration and to provide aggregate data for customization.
The Web Site does not link IP addresses to any personally identifiable information. Although your session on the Web Site will be logged through your username, this process will serve to track your session information, and collect aggregated information. If this aggregated information is published, transferred or sold to any other person, it will be in an anonymous format.
As time passes, Inflexxion may be sold along with its assets, or other transactions may occur in which user data is one of the business assets transferred. In such a case, the user data which we have gathered may be one of the business assets we transfer.
Use of Cookies
You will first access the Web Site through a registration process and afterwards a login (username and password). The Web Site does use cookies in a limited manner.
A cookie is a small data file that most major websites write to your hard drive for record-keeping purposes when you visit them. Cookies allow website managers to measure activity on the site and to improve your user experience, for example, by remembering your passwords and viewing preferences, thus allowing you to visit various registered access parts of the site without re-registering.
The first cookie is temporary and exists only when you are logged into the Web Site. It is there for security purposes, ensuring that you have the right to be on the site. The second cookie exists to prohibit you from getting more continuing education credits than those to which you are entitled.
The final cookie is temporary and exists as a bookmark. It allows you to keep track of your history on the Web Site.
These cookies are not created or used to collect any information (aggregate or personal) about you at any time. These are the only cookies that exist in this website.
You may occasionally get cookies from other sites, which is standard in the Internet industry. The Web Site does not control these cookies, and these cookies are not subject to the Web Site’s privacy policies.
Security
The Web Site has security measures in place to protect the loss, misuse and alteration of the information under our control. However, data transmission over the Internet or wireless networks cannot be guaranteed to be completely secure. Although we are committed to safeguarding your privacy and security, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk.

The Web Site may contain links to other independently run web sites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of such web sites.

If any provision of these Terms of Use is held to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision, to the extent unenforceable, will be struck, and will not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions. Our failure to act with respect to a breach by you or others does not waive our right to act with respect to subsequent or similar breaches. These Terms of Use set forth the entire agreement between you and us with respect to the subject matter hereof.
