"Data not collected on this Site." Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent
that any terms of the Privacy Policy conflict with the terms of an existing
written (including electronic) agreement between you and Campus Medica regarding the use
of specific areas of the Site or specific Products and Services (including
Product- and Service-specific licenses, terms of use, or privacy disclosures)
(collectively, Product Agreements), the terms of the Product Agreements shall

as amended from time to time. Campus Medica may change the Privacy Policy from time to

want to alter the ways in which Campus Medica is allowed to use your personal
information, you can do so by following the procedure described in the section
entitled Updating your personal information and privacy preferences. You will
be deemed to have been made aware of, and will be subject to, the changes to the
Privacy Policy after such notice has been posted with the following exception:
if at the time you provide personal information to Campus Medica you limit how such
information will be used to communicate with you, either by Campus Medica or by third
parties, Campus Medica will not change your preference in this regard without your
express consent. However, if Campus Medica sells assets (or the assets of a division or
subsidiary) to another entity, or Campus Medica (or a division or subsidiary) is
acquired by or merged with another entity, you agree that Campus Medica may provide to
such entity customer information that is related to that part of our business
that was sold to or merged with the other entity without obtaining your further
consent, but Campus Medica will provide notice of such asset sales, acquisitions, or
mergers on this Site.
Personal information on this Site is collected by Campus Medica
, who is responsible for this site. Campus Medicas address is
8 rue du Cannau, 34000 Montpellier, France.
The Site contains links to other sites at which personal information is
collected. In such instances, unless expressly provided to the contrary, the
collection and use of your personal information will be governed by the privacy
policy applicable to that site. That privacy policy should identify the entity
that is collecting your personal information.
You have the right to access and correct your personal information and privacy
preferences at any time. With respect to Registration Information (as defined in
the section entitled "Protection of your personal information"), this may be

As a visitor to this Site, you can engage in many activities without providing
any personal information. In connection with other activities, such as utilizing
online or hosted Products and Services, Campus Medica may ask you to provide certain
information about yourself by filling out and submitting a form. It is optional
for you to engage in these activities. If you elect to engage in these
activities, however, Campus Medica may ask that you provide personal information, such
as your first and last name, mailing address (including ZIP code), country of
residence, e-mail address, employer, job title and department, telephone and
facsimile numbers, and other personal information. When ordering Products and
Services via the Site, you may be asked to provide a credit card number.
Depending upon the activity, some of the information that we ask you to provide
is identified as mandatory and some as voluntary. If you do not provide the
mandatory data with respect to a particular activity, you will not be able to
engage in that activity. Similarly, if you wish to delete your information
(pursuant to the mechanism set forth in Updating your personal information and
privacy preferences) that is mandatory, you will no longer be able to engage in
a particular activity.
When you use the Site and the Products and Services, Campus Medica may also collect
certain information about your computer to facilitate and evaluate your use of
the Site and the Products and Services. For example, we may log environmental
variables, such as browser type, operating system, CPU speed, referring or exit
webpages, and the Internet Protocol (IP) address of your computer. Campus Medica also
uses such information to measure traffic patterns on the Site and usage of the
Products and Services. We do not match such information with any other
information held by Campus Medica unless we have your consent.
By using this Site and the Products and Services, you agree and acknowledge that
personal information collected through the Site or in connection with the
Products and Services may be transferred across national boundaries and stored
and processed in any of the countries around the world in which Campus Medica maintains
offices, including the United States. You also acknowledge that in certain
countries or with respect to certain activities, the collection, transfer,
storage, and processing of your information may be undertaken by trusted third
parties. Such third parties are bound by contract with Campus Medica not to use your
personal information for their own purposes or provide it to any third parties.
One instance where this could occur is in conjunction with framed pages in which
the URL for the pages is not visible, and the pages are hosted for Campus Medica by such
third parties. For example, on the sign up pages for some newsletters, the pages
may be hosted by a third party vendor, but appear to be campusmedica.org pages and are
governed by the Campus Medica privacy policy.
Campus Medica has established relationships with various service providers whose
services are available to you from the Site, from websites that are linked to
the Site, or in connection with the Products and Services. Typically, these
providers offer services that Campus Medica customers might find useful, such as those
that can be used in conjunction with Products and Services. In order to use
those providers services, you may be required to provide personal information
to the providers. Unless expressly provided to the contrary, personal
information that you provide while you are visiting a provider's website will be
subject to the privacy policy posted on that site, and personal information that
you provide while on the Site will be subject to this Privacy Policy.
In order to reduce errors in our database, authenticate our users, prevent abuse
of our Site and the Products and Services, and provide more consistent, relevant
experiences to our users, we may on occasion supplement the personal information
you submit to us with information from third-party sources. For example, if
permitted under applicable law, we may supplement your Registration Information
with address information provided by the U.S. Postal Service to qualify your
information and prevent errors in our database. As permissible, we may also
supplement the information you provide to us with demographic and other
information (such as age or interest in photography) stored in third-party
databases in order to make it more likely that marketing communications we send
will be of interest to you.
Campus Medica collects your information in order to record, support and facilitate your
participation in the activities you select. If you subscribe to or register for
Products and Services, for example, the information is used to register your
rights, if any, to technical support or other benefits that may be made
available to registered users. As another example, if you enter a contest,
information is collected to qualify the entry and to contact you regarding the
contest or prize awards. Your personal information is also used to track
customer preferences and keep you informed about product upgrades, special
offers, and other products and services of Campus Medica and selected third parties
unless you have opted not to receive such communications or such communications
are prohibited by law.
Campus Medica may collect information about the use of the Products and Services and the
Site, such as the number of downloads, types of Services used, how many users we
receive daily, and the IP/Internet address of your computer. This information is
collected in aggregate form, without identifying any user individually.
Campus Medica may use this aggregate, nonidentifying statistical data for improving the
Site and the Products and Services, providing more relevant experiences to our
customers and for statistical analysis.
Certain Products and Services may require you to use the most current version of
such Product and Service or are offered in conjunction with other Products and
Services, which you may or may not have already downloaded. The Product and
Service may automatically check to determine if you are using the most current
version or have other Products and Services and through e-mail messages, pop-up
boxes or similar mechanisms inform you if need to upgrade in order to use the
Product and Service you have requested. During this process, an IP address
identifying your computer and the Product and Service version may be sent to a
Web server, but system profile information is not transmitted nor are cookies
used to store information.
Campus Medica recognizes and appreciates the importance of responsible use of
information collected on the Site and in connection with the Products and
Services. Campus Medica will respect your legal rights regarding access to and
correction and deletion of your personal information. Campus Medica may communicate
information to you regarding products, services, and special offers available
from Campus Medica or selected third parties unless you have opted not to receive such
communications or such communications are prohibited by law, although we may
find it necessary to continue to communicate with you regarding your use of the
Site and the Products and Services. Except in the particular circumstances
described in this Privacy Policy, Campus Medica will not provide your name to other
companies or organizations without your consent.
There are other instances in which Campus Medica may divulge your personal information,
such as where required by law, regulation, or litigation. We may also disclose
information about you if we determine that such disclosure should be made for
reasons of national security, law enforcement, or other issues of public
importance.
The personal information that you provide in connection with registering
yourself as a user of the Site or of the Products and Services is classified as
Registration Information. Registration Information is protected in several ways.
Access by you to your Registration Information is available through a password
and unique customer ID selected by you. This password is encrypted. We recommend
that you do not divulge your password to anyone. In addition, your Registration
Information resides on secure servers that only selected Campus Medica personnel and
contractors have access to via password. Campus Medica encrypts your personal
information and thereby strives to prevent unauthorized parties from viewing
such information when it is transmitted to Campus Medica.
Personal information that you provide that does not constitute Registration
Information also resides on secure servers and is accessible only to selected
Campus Medica personnel and contractors via password. Since this information is not
accessible online by you, you will not be asked to select a password in order to
view or modify such information.
Please note that any information you post to a public bulletin board or chat
room, such as the Campus Medica User to User Forums (the "Forums"), is available to all
persons accessing that location, and your e-mail address may also be posted on
these venues. The information you share, including your email address, would
then be available to all persons accessing these venues, and such information
may be read, collected or used by others for any purpose, including sending you
unsolicited messages. Campus Medica is not responsible for any information you elect to
submit in these venues or the use of such information. In addition, you should
be aware that the Forums offer a service in which subscribers are e-mailed a
copy of all messages posted to the Forums on a particular topic. Consequently,
if you post a message to the Forums, your e-mail address will be sent to those
subscribers who have indicated an interest in the topic of your message.
Data not collected on this Site or in connection with the Products and
Services
Personal information that is not collected on the Site or in connection with the
Products and Services is not generally subject to this Privacy Policy. However,
personal information submitted on physical product registration cards is
classified as Registration Information and is subject to this Privacy Policy.
This Privacy Policy also covers licensee information (such as contact name and
address) provided in connection with Campus Medica's volume licensing program. If you
wish to access and/or correct such information, please see instructions for
doing so in the section entitled "Updating your personal information and privacy
preferences."
In order to improve our Products and Services and the Site and provide more
convenient, relevant experiences to our customers, we and our vendors may use
"cookies", web beacons, and similar devices to track your activities. A cookie
is small amount of data that is transferred to your browser by a web server and
can only be read by the server that gave it to you. It functions as your
identification card and enables Campus Medica to record your passwords, purchases, and
preferences. It cannot be executed as code or deliver viruses. A web beacon is a
small transparent gif image that is embedded in an HTML page or email used to
track when the page or email has been viewed. A similar device may be used by
which a Product and Service may send data to a server when a set of
user-initiated events occur such as the Add to Cart button is clicked. This
device is similar to a cookie in that it tracks your visit and the data can only
be read by the server that receives the data. It is different than a cookie in
that it is not browser-based, may not function as an identification card, and
does not store any data on your computer.
While Campus Medica uses cookies and similar devices to track your use of the Site and
the Products and Services, such as the number of downloads, types of Products
and Services used and downloaded, how many users we receive daily, and our web
servers automatically log the IP/Internet address of your computer, Campus Medica does
not generally use this information to identify you personally. However, if you
expressly provide consent for the Site or the Product and Service to "remember"
the unique identifier that you select when you register for various activities
on the Site or the Products and Services, that unique identifier will be stored
on a cookie on your computer and that unique identifier will be linked to your
Registration Information. As a result, your navigation path around the Site and
the Products and Services will be tracked.
Some Products and Services allow the tracking of access to or use of Products
and Services by users, as opposed to Campus Medica. For example, certain Products and
Services allow document authors to restrict access to documents, track access to
or use of those documents, or involve communications and transmission of data
over the Internet to verify the authenticity of documents, authors and
recipients. In many cases, this type of tracking will be obvious to you as a
user of the Products and Services, and in others, the software and services
license or terms of use, pop-up boxes, or email messages will inform you of
these features and your options, such as disabling options.
Most browsers are initially set to accept cookies, and most Products and
Services that include similar devices are typically initially activated to
collect data. You can set your browser to notify you when you receive a cookie,
giving you the chance to decide whether or not to accept it. (For some web pages
that require an authorization, cookies are not optional. Users choosing not to
accept cookies or similar devices will probably not be able to access those
pages or the related Products and Services.) Information about non-cookie
tracking devices and their features, including disabling options, are contained
in the information materials provided with such Products and Services or on Site
pages relating to such Products and Services.
Campus Medica also hires other companies to place our banner ads on other websites and
where they are permitted to perform tracking and reporting activities
("third-party advertisement servers"). Aside from IP addresses, they do not
collect personally identifiable information in doing this work for us, and we do
not give any personally identifiable information to them. Third-party
advertisement servers are subject to their own privacy policies. Campus Medica may also
allow other companies to display advertisements on certain pages of the Site or
within the Products and Services. If you click on these advertisements these
companies may place a persistent cookie on your computer which will allow them
to contact you directly. It is our policy to require these companies to provide
accessible methods for you to disable these cookies, and should you have any
complaint about the practices of any of these companies you should contact
privacy@campusmedica.org.
Campus Medica takes its users' privacy concerns seriously. If you believe that Campus Medica has
not complied with this Privacy Policy with respect to your personal information,
you may write to the Campus Medica Privacy Officer at the following email address : privacy@campusmedica.org.
In your letter, please describe in as much detail as possible the ways in which
you believe that the Privacy Policy has not been complied with. We will
investigate your complaint promptly.
If you provide Campus Medica with inconsistent privacy preferences (for example, by
indicating on one occasion that third parties may contact you with marketing
offers and indicating on another occasion that they may not), Campus Medica will
endeavor to update your privacy preferences in a timely and accurate
manner.
Also, please note that Campus Medica is not responsible for the content or privacy
practices of non-Campus Medica websites to which this Site or any other Campus Medica website
may link. You should review the privacy policy of such sites before using the
sites.
