DECA Dental Management, LLC (“DECA,” “we” or “us”) is committed to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy describes the personal information that we collect about you, how we use and disclose this information, and the steps we take to protect this information. For purposes of this Privacy Policy, “personal information” means any information that relates to you as an individual and could reasonably be used to identify you. This Privacy Policy applies to our collection and use of personal information through this website and any related websites, applications, tools, or platforms (the “Services”), as well as through any other means where a link or reference to this Privacy Policy is provided.
Your Personal Information. When you access or use the Services, or otherwise interact with us (including through our “Request Appointment” link or by calling us), we may collect certain personal information about you, such as your name, date of birth, nationality, and contact information. We may also collect information about you through your communications with us, including questions you send to us, marketing preferences, and survey responses. We may also automatically collect technical information like your browser type, IP address and browsing history (like pages you visit on our website).
How We Use Your Personal Information. We may use the personal information we collect from or about you to provide and improve the Services or otherwise in connection with administering our programs, evaluating job applicants, managing our website, and fulfilling our contractual obligations; to communicate with you; to ensure the safety and security of our customers, staff and other assets; and as necessary to comply with applicable laws or defend against any claims against us. We may also aggregate, anonymize, or otherwise use your personal information without identifying you for any purpose permitted by applicable law.
When you use the Services, we may send one or more cookies (which are small text files) to your computer or mobile device, to help analyze our web page flow, customize our content, measure promotional effectiveness, and promote trust and safety. You are always free to decline our cookies if your browser permits, although doing so may interfere with your ability to use the Services or certain features of the Services. We may also use Google Analytics or a similar service that uses cookies to help us analyze how users use the Services. Currently, various browsers offer a “Do Not Track” option, but there is no standard for how “Do Not Track” should work on commercial websites. Due to the lack of such standards, this website does not respond to “Do Not Track” consumer browser settings.
Disclosing Your Personal Information. We may disclose your personal information, to be used only for legitimate purposes in keeping with this Privacy Policy to third party vendors who provide services in support of our operations; to relevant third parties if we are ever involved in a merger, acquisition, asset sale, bankruptcy or similar business transaction; where required in order to comply with applicable laws or defend our rights; and, in certain cases, to other third parties with your consent. We will not sell or share your personal information with any unaffiliated third parties for marketing purposes.
Protecting Your Personal Information. We have implemented and maintain reasonable and appropriate technical and organizational measures designed to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and security of your personal information. Please note, however, that no security measures are perfect or impenetrable. We therefore cannot guaranty and do not warrant the absolute security of your personal information. We retain your personal information for no longer than reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes for which we collected it or to comply with the law, prevent fraud, facilitate an investigation, defend against legal claims, or exercise our legal rights.
Your Choices and Rights. You may decline to share certain information with us, in which case we may not be able to provide you with our Services. If you receive marketing e-mails from us and do not wish to receive future e-mails, you can opt-out by using the unsubscribe process at the bottom of the email. If you receive text messages from us and do not wish to receive future text messages, text STOP in response to any text message received. Although your request to stop receiving information will be reflected promptly in our database, we may retain all information you submit for a variety of purposes, including backups and archiving, prevention of fraud and abuse, and analytics or statistics about our users. To make a request related to your personal information or otherwise exercise your rights, you may contact us using the contact information provided below. In order to fulfill your request, we may require additional information from you.
Children. We do not knowingly collect or maintain information directly from persons under 13 years of age (“children”), and no part of the Services is directed to children. If you are under 13 years of age, then please do not use or access the Services at any time or in any manner. If we learn that information has been collected through the Services from children and without verifiable parental consent, then we will take the appropriate steps to delete this information. If you are a parent or guardian and discover that your child has provided us with personal information without your consent, please contact us using the contact information below to request that we delete the information from our systems.
Changes. We reserve the right to make changes to this Privacy Policy at any time, without notice. We will notify you about changes that significantly impact our use of your personal information by placing a prominent notice on this website or by sending you an email. Please revisit this page periodically to stay aware of any changes to this Privacy Policy. For the avoidance of doubt, disputes arising as considered in this document will be resolved in accordance with the Privacy Policy in effect at the time the dispute arose.
