The Information We Collect
When you browse any My Brace Now web site, you do so anonymously. On some My Brace Now’s web site pages, you are able to vote in polls or otherwise express an opinion, join one of our email clubs, or participate in one of our online forums or communities.

The types of personally identifiable information that may be collected at these pages include: name, address, zip code, e-mail address, telephone number, fax number, gender, birth date and information about your interests in and use of various products, programs, and services.
At certain parts of some of My Brace Now’s web sites, only persons who provide us with the requested personally identifiable information will be able to participate in programs and services or otherwise participate in the site’s activities and offerings. We may create and provide email club members access to certain data online through which members may change, update or add additional information about themselves online through the My Brace Now’s sites.

How We Use the Information
If you provide us with your e-mail address, or have done so in the past, we may send you e-mail updates, surveys, newsletters or other types of contacts. These are based on information you provided in your application, registration forms, in surveys, from information that you have provided. If you have signed up to receive our e-mails and prefer not to receive marketing information from this site, follow the “unsubscribe” instructions provided on any marketing e-mail you receive from this site.
We sometimes use this information to communicate with you, such as to notify you when you have an upcoming appointment, to fulfill a request by you for program information, or to contact you about your account with us.
We also use information generally to compile statistical and user profile data, to perform research using the compiled data including disclosure of user information to research firms retained by My Brace Now’s or its affiliated companies, to keep in contact with users and provide them with a better experience. We may use your information specifically for the following purposes: to provide easy access every time you return to the site without requiring re-entry of registration information; to keep you informed about products and services in which you may have interest; to complete business transactions; to allow you to make a review posting on the site; to administer individual accounts; to provide customer support; to meet legal requirements; to provide Internet security; and/or to analyze the collected information and use this data for contacts by research firms.
Notwithstanding any provision of this Privacy Policy to the contrary, to the extent you provide your information in connection with our ecommerce initiatives, we will not sell or rent such information to any third party unless you otherwise specifically consent.
Although we take appropriate measures to safeguard against unauthorized disclosures of information, we cannot assure you that personally identifiable information that we collect will never be disclosed in a manner that is inconsistent with this Privacy Policy.
The data you provide is used to enhance the services we offer. As a result of providing personal information, My Brace Now’s can provide a more customized online experience, making your interaction with us more productive, helpful and easy. You can also expect to receive occasional communications targeted directly toward your account.
Finally, We may disclose personally identifiable information in response to legal process, for example, in response to a court order or a subpoena. We also may disclose such information in response to a law enforcement agency’s request, or where we believe it is necessary to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person, violations of our terms of use, or as otherwise required by law. In addition, we may transfer information about you if we are acquired by or merged with another company.
Cookies & Web Beacons
To enhance your experience with our sites, many of our web pages use “cookies.” Cookies are text files we place in your computer’s browser to store your preferences. Cookies, by themselves, do not tell us your e-mail address or other personally identifiable information unless you choose to provide this information to us by, for example, registering at one of our sites. Once you choose to furnish the site with personally identifiable information, however, this information may be linked to the data stored in the cookie.
We use cookies to understand site usage and to improve the content and offerings on our sites. For example, we may use cookies to personalize your experience at our web pages (e.g., to recognize you by name when you return to our site) and save your password in password-protected areas. We also may use cookies to offer you products, programs or services.
“Web beacons” or clear .gifs are small pieces of code placed on a web page to monitor the behavior and collect data about the visitors viewing a web page. For example, web beacons can be used to count the users who visit a web page or to deliver a cookie to the browser of a visitor viewing that page. We may use web beacons on this site from time to time for this and other purposes.
