We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy regularly to stay informed about our information practices and the choices available to you.

  • We may disclose personal information if we believe that disclosure is in accordance with, or required by, any applicable law or legal process, including lawful requests by public authorities to meet national security or law enforcement requirements.
  • We may share personal information if we believe that your actions are inconsistent with our user agreements or policies, if we believe that you have violated the law, or if we believe it is necessary to protect the rights, property, and safety of Phoenix LTC, our users, the public, or others.
  • We share personal information with our lawyers and other professional advisors where necessary to obtain advice or otherwise protect and manage our business interests.

ANALYTICS
We allow others to provide analytics services on our behalf across the web. These entities may use cookies, web beacons, device identifiers, and other technologies to collect information about your use of our websites, including your IP address, web browser, pages viewed, time spent on pages or in mobile apps, links clicked, and conversion information. This information may be used by Phoenix LTC and others to, among other things, analyze and track data, determine the popularity of certain content, and better understand your online activity.

BIOMETRIC DATA
Certain Phoenix LTC products, including StatSafe automated medication management system cabinets and kiosks, may utilize biometric data during login that employ devices and software that allow our customers to obtain information about their users’ fingerprints (“finger records”) for verification, access and security purposes. Phoenix LTC processes and stores users’ finger records to provide our products and services to our customers. In some cases, finger records are stored locally on customers’ devices or on customers’ networks. In those cases where biometrics are utilized by Phoenix LTC, finger records are encrypted at rest on the customer’s StatSafe device; on the Phoenix LTC cloud-based servers; and, while being transmitted between the two. This function is active as of StatSafe client software version 2.1.0.0 and above.

In all cases, Phoenix LTC’s customers are responsible for the collection, use, retention, deletion, and control of users’ finger records, and the privacy policies and notices of Phoenix LTC’s customers govern the collection, use, retention, deletion, and control of finger records. With respect to finger records under the control of Phoenix LTC, biometric images are kept only so long as the customer’s user is enabled on the device, as dictated by the customer. When the customer’s agent (e.g., the pharmacy or home administrator) disables the user, the biometric image is deleted from both the cloud-based servers and the customer’s StatSafe device. This function is active as of StatSafe client software version 2.1.0.0 and above.
Where required by law, it is incumbent upon the customer to obtain its user’s written consent to use that individual user’s biometric data in conjunction with applicable Phoenix LTC products.

OTHER DATA
Certain Phoenix LTC products, including StatSafe automated medication management system cabinets and kiosks, may utilize a non-biometric feature that takes a photograph of a customer’s user (“photograph records”) during login for confirmation (after the fact) and security purposes. Phoenix LTC processes and stores users’ photograph records to provide our products and services to our customers.

In some cases, photograph records are stored locally on customers’ devices or on customers’ networks. In those cases where photographs are utilized by Phoenix LTC, photograph records are only stored on the StatSafe client device while the image is being securely transmitted to the cloud-based servers. After transmission, the image is permanently deleted from the customer’s StatSafe device. This function is active as of StatSafe client software version 2.1.0.0 and above.

In all cases, Phoenix LTC’s customers are responsible for the collection, use, retention, deletion, and control of users’ photograph records, and the privacy policies and notices of Phoenix LTC’s customers govern the collection, use, retention, deletion, and control of photograph records. With respect to photograph records under the control of Phoenix LTC, Phoenix LTC will retain photograph records for a period of twenty-four (24) months on the cloud-based servers, and are encrypted at rest. After twenty-four (24) months, the pictures are permanently deleted. This function is active on all current StatSafe devices and coincides with the timeframe that the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) requires controlled substance records to be kept pursuant to 21 CFR §1304.4 Maintenance of Records and Inventories.

YOUR CALIFORNIA PRIVACY RIGHTS

The California Consumer Privacy Act or “CCPA” (Cal. Civ. Code § 1798.100 et seq.) affords consumers residing in California certain rights with respect to their personal information. If you are a California resident, this section applies to you. The CCPA requires that we provide transparency about any personal information we might “sell,” which broadly means scenarios in which Phoenix LTC has shared personal information with third parties in exchange for valuable consideration. Phoenix LTC does not, and will not, sell your personal information, and we will not discriminate against you if you exercise your rights under the CCPA.

COOKIE POLICY

1. Introduction
This Cookie Policy (“Cookie Policy”) explains how Phoenix LTC and its affiliates (collectively, “Phoenix LTC”, “we”, or “us”) use cookies on its website(s), related applications, or online services operated by Phoenix LTC, (collectively, “Site(s)”) which all link to this Cookie Policy.

2. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files, which can be stored on your computer upon your visit to websites. Cookies usually have an expiration date. They can perform different functions but typically keep a record of websites visited.

Your internet browser downloads a cookie on the first visit to a website. The next time you visit the website with the same user device, this cookie as well as all the information stored in it will be resent to the website, which created it (first-party cookie). However, there is a possibility this information will be sent to another website managing it (third-party cookie).

This allows the website to recognize your browser and to remember your preferences, providing you in this way with more relevant content to your personal interests and needs.

Overall, cookies help us to improve user experience and enable us to improve the performance of the website.

3. Who installs cookies?

Cookies can be installed by Phoenix LTC or a third party:

  • First-party cookies are installed and managed by Phoenix LTC. They are specific to the Phoenix LTC website which you visit;
  • Third-party cookies are installed and managed by a third party. They are installed during your visit to a Phoenix LTC website and allow certain information to be sent to third parties upon your return to the Phoenix LTC website.

4. How long do cookies last?

Cookies can be temporary or persistent:

  • Temporary or session cookies are temporarily stored in your computer or mobile device. As soon as you close your browser, these cookies are automatically deleted; and,
  • Persistent cookies remain on your device for a longer time, even after you close your browser. They remain on your device until the expiration data is reached and then a new version of the cookie is installed or sometimes, or until you delete them manually. They make it possible to recognize you during a subsequent visit to the website.

The duration depends on the purpose for which certain types of cookies are installed in your computer. For example, a session cookie may be used to allow visitors to be recognized within a set of webpages, so that any choices or data selection made by that user are remembered from page to page.

Regardless of the purpose behind each specific cookie, Phoenix LTC takes into account the principle of data minimization when setting this duration. This means that, whenever possible, Phoenix LTC will opt for the shortest possible duration that still enables the function of the cookie to be performed.

5. For which purposes are cookies used by Phoenix LTC?

Phoenix LTC uses cookies to make this website work smoothly. For example, we use cookies to make it more user friendly by remembering your preferences, and providing you with information that we think is of interest and useful for you based on your past navigation.

Furthermore, we collect data recorded by cookies to draw up anonymous, aggregated statistics or studies for Phoenix LTC websites and to ensure that its content and performance is relevant to our visitors.

6. What kind of cookies are used by Phoenix LTC?

Cookies can be described based on their function and intended purposes. Some cookies are considered essential to your navigation, while others are performance-measuring cookies. You can also have cookies of a functional nature, such as cookies that collect data for marketing purposes.

They may be set by us or by third party providers whose services we have added to our pages. If you do not allow these cookies then some or all of these services may not function properly.

They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant adverts on other sites. They do not store directly personal information, but are based on uniquely identifying your browser and internet device. If you do not allow these cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising.
  • Social Media Cookies: These cookies are set by a range of social media services that we have added to the site to enable you to share our content with your friends and networks. They are capable of tracking your browser across other sites and building up a profile of your interests. This may impact the content and messages you see on other websites you visit.
