Your privacy is critically important to us. At Cosmetic and Reconstructive Surgical Associates of Connecticut (CRASC) we have a few fundamental principles:

  • We do not ask you for personal information unless we truly need it.
  • We do not share your personal information with anyone except to comply with the law, develop our products, or protect our rights.
  • We do not store personal information on our servers unless required for the on-going operation of one of our services.

It is CRASC’s policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our websites.

Website Visitors

Like most website operators, CRASC collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. CRASC’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how CRASC’s visitors use its website. From time to time, CRASC may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.

CRASC also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on WordPress.com blogs. CRASC only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below, except that blog commenter IP addresses are visible and disclosed to the administrators of the blog where the comment was left.

Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information

Certain visitors to CRASC’s websites choose to interact with CRASC in ways that require CRASC to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that CRASC gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. In each case, CRASC collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with CRASC. CRASC does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.

Aggregated Statistics

CRASC may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its websites. For instance, CRASC may monitor the most popular blogs to help identify spam. CRASC may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, CRASC does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.

Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information

CRASC discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on CRASC’s behalf or to provide services available at CRASC’s websites, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using CRASC’s websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. CRASC will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations, as described above, CRASC discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when CRASC believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of CRASC, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of a CRASC website and have supplied your email address, CRASC may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what’s going on with CRASC and our products. If you send us a request (for example via a support email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. CRASC takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.

Cookies

A cookie is a string of information that a website stores on a visitor’s computer, and that the visitor’s browser provides to the website each time the visitor returns. CRASC uses cookies to help identify and track visitors, their usage of CRASC website, and their website access preferences. CRASC visitors who do not wish to have cookies placed on their computers should set their browsers to refuse cookies before using CRASC’s websites, with the drawback that certain features of CRASC’s websites may not function properly without the aid of cookies.

Business Transfers

If CRASC, or substantially all of its assets, were acquired, or in the unlikely event that CRASC goes out of business or enters bankruptcy, user information would be one of the assets that is transferred or acquired by a third party. You acknowledge that such transfers may occur, and that any acquirer of Cosmetic and Reconstructive Surgical Associates of Connecticut may continue to use your personal information as set forth in this policy.

Ads

Ads appearing on any of our websites may be delivered to users by advertising partners, who may set cookies. These cookies allow the ad server to recognize your computer each time they send you an online advertisement to compile information about you or others who use your computer. This information allows ad networks to, among other things, deliver targeted advertisements that they believe will be of most interest to you. This Privacy Policy covers the use of cookies by Cosmetic and Reconstructive Surgical Associates of Connecticut and does not cover the use of cookies by any advertisers.

Comments

Comments and other content submitted to our service are not saved on our servers unless they were marked as false positives, in which case we store them long enough to use them to improve the service to avoid future false positives.

Privacy Policy Changes

Although most changes are likely to be minor, CRASC may change its Privacy Policy from time to time, and at CRASC’s sole discretion. CRASC encourages visitors to frequently check this page for any changes to its Privacy Policy. Your continued use of this site after any change in this Privacy Policy will constitute your acceptance of such change.
