This Privacy Policy explains how Idaho Medical Exams (“Idaho Medical Exams,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, discloses, and protects information in connection with this website. By using the website, you agree to the practices described here. This policy applies to the website only; it does not govern the conduct of an independent medical evaluation, which is subject to separate professional, legal, and contractual obligations.
Information You Provide
If you contact us or submit a referral request through the website, we collect the information you choose to provide, which typically may include your name, organization, email address, telephone number, the type of evaluation requested, and a brief description of the matter.
Please do not submit medical records, protected health information, confidential case materials, or other sensitive information through the website. Those materials should be exchanged through secure channels after an engagement is confirmed.
Information Collected Automatically
When you visit the website, our servers and any analytics tools we use may automatically collect standard technical information, such as your IP address, browser type, device and operating system, referring pages, pages viewed, and the dates and times of your visits. We use this information to operate, secure, and improve the website.
Cookies and Similar Technologies
The website may use cookies or similar technologies to remember your preferences and to understand how the site is used. Most browsers allow you to refuse or delete cookies through browser settings. Declining cookies may affect some features, but you can still use the site’s core content.
How We Use Information
We use the information we collect to:
- respond to inquiries and referral requests;
- provide and coordinate services you request;
- communicate with you about a matter or about our services;
- operate, maintain, secure, and improve the website; and
- comply with applicable legal obligations.
How We Share Information
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information.
We may share information with trusted service providers who perform functions on our behalf, such as website hosting, email delivery, or analytics. These service providers are permitted to use the information only to provide the services we request and are expected to keep it confidential.
We may also disclose information where we believe in good faith that doing so is necessary to:
- comply with applicable law or legal process;
- respond to lawful requests from public authorities;
- enforce our terms;
- protect the rights, property, or safety of Idaho Medical Exams, the parties we serve, or the public; or
- investigate or address suspected fraud, security incidents, or misuse of the website.
Medical Information and Independent Evaluations
Idaho Medical Exams provides independent medical evaluations and record reviews. An independent evaluation is performed for assessment purposes only and does not create a physician-patient treatment relationship.
Medical records and evaluation reports are handled in accordance with applicable law and the terms of the specific engagement, and are exchanged through secure channels, not through this website.
Data Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. No method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is completely secure, however, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Data Retention
We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, comply with legal and professional obligations, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, and maintain our business records, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.
Third-Party Links
The website may contain links to third-party websites that we do not control. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those sites, and we encourage you to review their privacy policies.
Children’s Privacy
The website is intended for a professional audience and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
Your Choices
You may contact us at any time to ask about the information we hold, or to request that we update or delete information you have provided. We will respond consistent with applicable law.
You may also be able to control cookies through your browser settings.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with a revised “Last Updated” date.
