Information we collect

When you access official Brad Douglas MD AeroSpace Medicine PLLC Web pages, certain client information and essential and nonessential technical information (collectively referred to as access information) listed below is automatically collected. No other information is collected through our official Web sites except when you deliberately send it to us (for example, by clicking a link to send us an e-mail). Examples of the information you might choose to send us are listed below as “optional information.”

​

Access Information (automatically collected)

• Client information: the Internet domain and Internet address of the computer you are using.

• Essential technical information: identification of the page or service you are requesting, type of browser and operating system you are using; and the date and time of access.

• Nonessential technical information: the Internet address of the Web site from which you linked directly to our Web site, and the “cookie information” used to direct and tailor information based on your entry path to the site.

• ​

Client information is used to route the requested Web page to your computer for viewing. In theory, the requested Web page and the routing information could be discerned by other entities involved in transmitting the requested page to you. We do not control the privacy practices of those entities.

We may keep client information from our systems indefinitely after the Web page is transmitted, but we do not cross-reference it to the individuals who browse our Web site. However, on rare occasions when a “hacker” attempts to breach computer security, logs of access information are retained to permit a security investigation. In such cases the logs may be further analyzed or forwarded together with any other relevant information in our possession to law enforcement agencies.

Essential and nonessential technical information lets us respond to your request in an appropriate format [or in a personalized manner] and helps us plan Web site improvements. To expedite this process, some official Brad Douglas MD AeroSpace Medicine PLLC Web sites use “cookies.” Usually a cookie enables Brad Douglas MD AeroSpace Medicine PLLC Web site to tailor what you see according to the way you entered the site.

We also use non-identifying and aggregate information to better design our Web site. For example, we may determine that X number of individuals visited a certain area on our Web site, or that Y number of men and Z number of women filled out a particular registration form. But we do not disclose information that could identify those specific individuals.

​

Optional information (deliberately sent)

• E-mail: your name, e-mail address, and the content of your e-mail.

• Online forms: all the data you choose to fill in or confirm. This includes information shared when requesting a medical appointment online such as your name, phone number, and details about your appointment request. This may also include credit or debit card information if you are ordering a product or making a payment, as well as information about other people if you are providing it for delivery purposes, etc. See below for more specific information about children’s online activities.

Optional information enables us to provide services or information tailored more specifically to your needs, to forward your message or inquiry to another entity that is better able to do so, and to plan Web site improvements.

We use the information you provide about yourself or about someone else when placing a request for service only to complete that order or request. We do not share this information with outside parties, except to the extent necessary to complete that order or request.

We generally use return e-mail addresses only to answer the e-mail we receive and to send relevant information for your FAA Medical such as monthly mass emails to all those who get FAA Medicals from Brad Douglas MD AeroSpace Medicine PLLC.  Such addresses are generally not used for any other purpose and by Brad Douglas MD AeroSpace Medicine PLLC policy are not shared with outside parties.

Finally, we never use or share the personally identifiable information provided to us online in ways unrelated to the purpose described without a clear notice on the particular site and without also providing you an opportunity to opt-out or otherwise prohibit such unrelated uses.
