How we Protect Personal Information
Smile Prep strives to secure Personal Information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. For example, when personal information (such as your name, contact information or a credit card number) is transmitted via smileprep.com, it is protected through the use of encryption, such as the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol.
We strive to take appropriate security measures to protect against unauthorized access to or alteration of your Personal Informatio. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet or any wireless network can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information, you acknowledge that: (a) there are security and privacy limitations inherent to the Internet which are beyond our control; and (b) security, integrity, and privacy of any and all information and data exchanged between you and us through this Site cannot be guaranteed.
Sharing Personal Information with Third Parties
Smile Prep provides Personal Information, including personally identifiable information and non-personally-identifiable information, to our subsidiaries, affiliated companies, or other businesses or persons for the purpose of processing such information or delivering a service on our behalf. We make reasonable efforts to limit their use of such information and to ensure appropriate confidentiality and security measures.
Smile Prep does not share your personally identifiable information (such as name or email address) with other, third-party companies for their commercial or marketing use without your consent.
Smile Prep may share non-personally-identifiable information (such as anonymous User usage data, referring / exit pages and URLs, platform types, number of clicks, etc.) with interested third-parties to assist them in understanding the usage patterns for certain content, services, advertisements, promotions, and/or functionality on smileprep.com.
Smile Prep may release personally identifiable information and/or non-personally-identifiable information if required to do so by law, or in the good-faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with state and federal laws (such as U.S. Copyright Law) or respond to a court order, subpoena, or search warrant.
Smile Prep also reserves the right to disclose personally identifiable information and/or non-personally-identifiable information that Smile Prep believes, in good faith, to investigate and defend itself against any third-party claims or allegations, to assist government enforcement agencies, to protect the security or integrity of our web site, and to protect the rights, property, or personal safety of Smile Prep, our Users or others.
