SocialClimb, LLC. – Privacy Policy
Thank you for visiting the web site (“Site”) of SocialClimb, LLC., (“SocialClimb”) located at the URL: www.SocialClimb.com. This Privacy Policy details certain policies implemented by SocialClimb governing SocialClimb’s use of personally identifiable information about users of our Site and the services offered on or through the Site.
PRIVACY POLICY
SocialClimb, LLC, (“SocialClimb”) respects your privacy and is committed to protecting it. Please read this Privacy Policy carefully to understand how SocialClimb collects and uses your personal information and data. Please also refer to SocialClimb’s HIPAA Business Agreement, which is available at https://socialclimb.com/hipaa-business-agreement/ and its End User License Agreement, which is available at https://socialclimb.com/end-user-license-agreements/. This Privacy Policy covers all Personal Data that we receive from various sources, as outlined below. By using or accessing SocialClimb’s website(s) in any way, or by engaging in transactions with SocialClimb through any other means (e.g., directly or through your health provider), or by using the proprietary marketing, location management and social postings management software services (“Software”), you acknowledge that you accept the practices and policies outlined in this Privacy Policy, and you hereby consent to our collection, use and disclosure of your information in the manner described herein. If you do not agree with this Privacy Policy, please do not use this website, the Software, or transact with SocialClimb.
For purposes of this Privacy Policy, “Personal Data” may include any information that can be used to identify or locate you, such as your name, address, IP address, mailing address, contact information, email address or phone number and other information you may produce to us. Both federal and state law in the United States defines Personal Data or Personal Information, as do the laws of Canada, the European Union, and other countries and jurisdictions. This Privacy Policy is intended to include the most expansive definition. However, please recognize that your rights related to Personal Data, and how Personal Data is defined, differs somewhat from state to state and country to country. For example, a California resident likely has different rights than a Utah resident, and each of them likely has different rights than a resident of Canada.
Changes to Privacy Policy. We review this Privacy Policy regularly and may update it from time to time. We will post any changes on this page and may also provide notice of material changes to our Privacy Policy on our home page or through our Software. If you object to any changes to this Privacy Policy, you may close your account and discontinue the use of our website and services. Each time you use any service of SocialClimb or access our website, you agree that the current version of this Privacy Policy applies.
PERSONAL DATA THAT WE COLLECT AND HOW WE COLLECT IT:
SocialClimb obtains Personal Data in two ways: (1) through our website; and (2) from our Software Customers (i.e., your healthcare providers),
Information From Website. We collect Personal Data that you provide us when you access our website and submit information through our Request a Demo page. This information includes Name, Email, Phone, and Company. If you elect to contact us via email, the information we collect is what you provide, in addition to the information contained by default in an email header.
Our collection of other data and information may happen without your express knowledge, but you hereby consent to it. This means that you will not necessarily know when and how it is happening. However, we can only gather the information through your voluntary interactions with us. If you object to, or limit our processing of certain information of this nature, you may not be able to use all of the features of our website, interact or transact with Company at all. This type of information includes, but is not necessarily limited to:
- Browsing Information, Logs, Device Information: When you visit our Website, we may process information about your activities on our Website through the use of technology such as cookies, web beacons, and other tracking technologies, as further explained below. This information may contain personal information and statistical information. We may collect device-specific information (such as hardware model, operating system version, unique device identifiers, and mobile network information, including your mobile phone number). We may record or log information from your Devices, their software, and your activity in accessing or using our Website.
- Additional Information: Such as, IP address, device ID numbers, system activity, location preferences, date and time stamps of transactions. Providing this information is not mandatory and cookies can be disabled. However, please note that our website may not offer the same functionalities when certain cookies or other tracking data are disabled.
A cookie is a tiny element of data that our Websites can send to your browser, which may then be stored on your hard drive so we can recognize your computer when you return. Cookies also assist with the performance of various aspects of the Website. You may set your Web browser to notify you when you receive a cookie. However, should you decide not to accept cookies from our Website, you may limit the functionality we can provide when you visit our Website. Additional general information about cookies and how they work is available at www.allaboutcookies.org.
A web beacon (also known as a “tracking pixel” or “clear GIF”) is a clear graphic image (typically a one-pixel tag) that is delivered through a web browser or HTML e-mail, typically in conjunction with a cookie. Web beacons allows us, for example, to monitor how users move from one page within our websites to another, to track access to our communications, to understand whether users have come to our websites from an online advertisement displayed on a third-party website, to measure how ads have been viewed, and to improve site performance.
If we are unable to associate the information collected from you or your devices to you, as some may be purely statistical or technical without any identifier or connection to you, such is not considered personal data for purposes of this Privacy Policy. For example, you may use a computer to navigate to the website, and the website may record an entry to the website by a personal computer running Windows 10. This information has no direct link to you and cannot be associated with you and is therefore not considered Personal Data.
Information From Software Customers. Our customers who license our software have employees who are granted administrative rights to create user accounts for other employees and designated persons. These customers act as data controllers (“Controllers”) in the use of the software and the collection and processing of Personal Data to be able to effectively operate the software. In such cases, our role in processing the Personal Data provided by our customers is as a “Processor,” since we are processing data on behalf of the Controller (who is the customer). As a Processor, we are obligated to process this Personal Data as part of our license agreement entered with the customer. The Personal Data collected in this scenario generally includes the name, physical address and phone number of each assigned user, but may also include information related to your health and wellness and PHI. Processing of this Personal Data is performed on behalf of the customer and for the purpose of providing the services requested by the customer. We do not control the collection of your information by third parties who may provide it to us, and such may be subject to their privacy policies.

Although we are committed to employing reasonable technology in order to protect the security of our Website, even with the best technology, no website is 100% secure.

To the extent these providers have access to your Personal Data, we will require that they are legally or contractually committed to comply with applicable privacy laws, However, we cannot guarantee with certainty that the computer systems and storage systems whereon these services are offered will not be accessed by unauthorized parties. This is a risk inherent in providing any information or, or conducting any business, online.

SocialClimb uses technical and organizational measures to protect the Personal Data that we store, transmit, or otherwise process, against accidental or unlawful destruction or disclosure, loss, alteration, or unauthorized access.
