Updated 2008.02.01

Your Privacy
This network is administered by the Acupuncture & Integrative Medicine College, Berkeley (AIMC Berkeley) on a Ning platform: by accessing this network, you are subject to the privacy policy both of Ning.com and this site. Please review Ning’s Privacy Policy, as it is subject to change without prior notice; you are responsible for it just the same. The below policy supplements that of Ning.com and in no way supersedes it.

This is an open, public network: you are not anonymous. While you can send a private message to other members, or converse in a private discussion group, you cannot control what other members do with information once you have published it. Therefore, please be mindful of revealing any personal information, such as e-mail addresses, physical addresses, or phone numbers. When in doubt, use private messages.

A word about HIPAA
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act governs how you might handle the personally identifiable information of a patient. In basic terms, never reveal any such information through the services of this Web site: forum discussions, comments, private messages, photographs, or videos.

Children Under Thirteen
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of thirteen (13) and do not target this Web site to children under thirteen. If you are under thirteen, please do not submit any Personal Data through the Site. We encourage parents and legal guardians to monitor their children's Internet usage and to help enforce this Privacy Policy by instructing their children to never provider Personal Data on this Site without their permission. If you have reason to believe that a child under the age of thirteen has provided Personal Data to us through this Site, please contact us, and we will do our best to delete that information from our databases.

Changes to Policy
The Site may change from time to time. As a result, at times it may be necessary for us to make changes to this Privacy Policy. Accordingly, we reserve the right to update or modify this Privacy Policy at any time and from time to time without prior notice. Please review this policy periodically, and especially before you provide any Personal Data. This Privacy Policy was last updated on the date indicated above. Your continued use of the Site after any changes or revisions to this Privacy Policy shall indicate your agreement with the terms of such revised Privacy Policy.
