FEATURES AND SERVICES PROVIDED TO VISITORS AND REGISTERED USERS
Use of a dynamic map locating available medical care settings and use of search functions by zip code, insurance and medical specialty is free to all users. No registration is required for the search features.
Use of iVisitMD™ ACUTE SYMPTOMS CHECK is entirely free for all registered users of the Website.
iVisitMD911 uses proprietary ACUTE SYMPTOMS CHECK based on medical evidence and clinical experience. The ACUTE SYMPTOMS CHECK collects limited information provided by registered users through a series of brief multiple choice questions. The ACUTE SYMPTOMS CHECK was developed by physicians from multiple specialties, including emergency medicine, cardiology, internal medicine, gynecology, gastroenterology, pulmonology, neurology and surgery. The ACUTE SYMPTOMS CHECK provides guidance for acute symptoms that may be due to medical emergency. Please note that use of iVistMD911 is NOT a substitute for a full evaluation by a licensed physician or medical practitioner. Use of the ACUTE SYMPTOMS CHECK does not constitute doctor-patient encounter, and no diagnosis and treatment are provided. iVisitMD911 provides a location-specific listing of medical facilities, such as emergency rooms, urgent care centers and physician offices. These medical facilities are not affiliated with our Website, and no services, facilities or professionals are endorsed by us. The ACUTE SYMPTOMS CHECK provides non-binding recommendations for visits to such facilities. The ACUTE SYMPTOMS CHECK can be used by patients and medical professionals to locate available medical resources in the community.
iVisitMD Now is a free feature available to all registered professional users of the website. It allows medical professionals to schedule location-specific sessions for live phone interaction and walk-in visits. Using the ACUTE SYMPTOMS CHECK, patient users may be provided with a listing of medical professionals who activated this feature. The feature allows patient users to contact up to two (2) medical offices or practitioners within two (2) hours of completion of the ACUTE SYMPTOMS CHECK for scheduling walk-in visits. It bears a flat fee of $40.00, which will be charged by iVisitMD™ and is not refundable. Patient users have two (2) hour window upon completion of the ACUTE SYMPTOMS CHECK to contact an office location or practitioner by phone for a walk-in visit, and can re-select once with no extra charge. A new ACUTE SYMPTOMS CHECK and an additional fee are required after expiration of two (2) hours. The fees charged by iVisitMD™ are not part of an office visit to any practitioner, and cannot be used as co-payment or applied to the insurance deductible. Selecting emergency departments or urgent care clinics carries no fee. All iVisitMD users agree not to circumvent this service and not to engage in any activity intended to connect them to medical professionals available on the iVisitMD Website through other web-based resources.
This tool serves as an essential safety check for the users, who are enabled to immediately contact medical practitioners to make sure that their symptoms warrant a walk-in-visit. Please note that this fee is not charged by or shared in any way with physicians. The fee allows a “safety check” phone call to a medical practitioner’s office with a response within a reasonable period of time, such as one hour. The purpose of a phone call is to ascertain whether the acuity of the symptoms is appropriate for an office visit, and to obtain a walk-in visit as soon as possible, or within a reasonable period of time, such as several hours. It is not anticipated that any diagnoses, prescriptions or treatments will be rendered during the “safety check” phone calls. Participating medical practitioners may, at their discretion, refer patient users to emergency room facilities if the acuity of symptoms, in their professional opinion, warrants such referrals. Phone conversations between users and medical practitioners of facilities facilitated by iVistMD Now do not form doctor-patient relationships and are not substitute for traditional face-to-face encounters with medical practitioners.
iVisitMD Connect, our EXPLORE AND CONNECT feature, is a location-specific listing of medical professionals in various practice settings that can be used by registered users and offer social network connection to certain medical practices and facilities registered with iVistMD™ as premium account holders. It is designed for non-emergency visits.
iVisitTELEMD , our VIDEO VISITS feature, is a location-specific listing of medical professionals delivering telemedicine services through electronic visits over the internet using video links. These services are provided by third parties not affiliated with the iVisitMD. Please note that iVisitMD™ does not provide telemedicine services, does not serve as agent of telemedicine service providers and merely provides a directory of such providers. All registered users who desire to utilize this tool are responsible for carefully reviewing the policies of the third party telemedicine providers before engaging such services. Fees charges by telemedicine providers vary and do not relate to iVisitMD. The video visits are subject to limitations imposed by the state laws. iVisitMD is not liable and should be hold harmless for any issues that may arise for patients or professionals engaged in telemedicine services.

Licensed medical care professionals and facilities agree to one hour response time for paid, urgent phone contacts initiated by patient users. Failure to comply with one hour response rule on more than one (1) occasion will result in an immediate revocation of the listing and cancellation of the provider participation and forfeiture of the subscription fees to the end of the subscription cycle.

Rejecting Cookies
Users may choose to reject Cookies through the settings in their browsers. However, when Cookies are rejected, certain functions and conveniences of iVisitMD Website may not work properly. While users do not have to accept our Cookies in order to productively use the iVisitMD Website, it is important to note that in order to use the opt-out services described below, users should not reject all Cookies because these opt-out procedures work by placing Cookies on your browser that enable these opt-out procedures to function. The “opt-out Cookies” are placed, for example, in order to help prevent the placement of Cookies used for the targeting of advertising.
We work with third party ad networks to display advertising on our Sites. Our ad network vendors use technologies to collect non-personally identifiable information about your activities on our Website to provide you cookie-based targeted advertising based upon your browsing activity and your interests.
HOW DO WE SECURE AND RETAIN YOUR INFORMATION?
The security of your personal information is important to us. iVisitMD™ takes all reasonable steps to protect the security of your personal information.
During the process of registration with iVisitMD™, a unique code is the identifier generated for each user registration. The personal information, such first and last name, age, gender and address entered by a registering user is never used in any communications and the user is being identified by code only. While by using the Acute Symptoms Check feature users consent to supply iVisitMD™ with limited information relevant to the symptoms they are experiencing, such information is shared with medical facilities and/or professionals only in an encrypted and de-identified format.
We keep user information on a secured server behind a firewall. When users enter personal information, we use encryption technology, such as Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), to protect such information during data transport. DESPITE IVISITMD'S EFFORTS TO PROTECT PERSONAL 6 INFORMATION, WE CANNOT ENSURE OR WARRANT THE SECURITY OF ANY INFORMATION TRANSMITTED TO US, AND USERS DO SO AT THEIR OWN RISK. ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSIONS VIA THE INTERNET ARE NOT NECESSARILY SECURE FROM INTERCEPTION, AND SO WE CANNOT ABSOLUTELY GUARANTEE THE SECURITY OR CONFIDENTIALITY OF SUCH TRANSMISSIONS. THERE IS ALWAYS SOME RISK THAT AN UNAUTHORIZED THIRD PARTY MAY FIND A WAY AROUND OUR SECURITY SYSTEMS OR THAT TRANSMISSIONS OF YOUR INFORMATION OVER THE INTERNET MAY BE INTERCEPTED.
California Online Privacy Protection Act Compliance
While the majority of services referred to on iVisitMD Website are in the New York City metropolitan area, since the Website will be accessible nationwide, we have taken the necessary precautions to be in compliance with the California Online Privacy Protection Act.

As part of the California Online Privacy Protection Act, all users of our site may make any changes to their information at any time by logging into their control panel and going to the “Edit Profile” page.

INFORMATION COLLECTED ABOUT YOU
Personal Information
When you browse iVisitMD™ Website without registering and do not interact with any online service, you browse anonymously. Personally identifiable information, such as your name, address, phone number and email address is not collected as you browse. We do not collect information that would personally identify you unless you choose to provide it. For example, if you register or update an existing member profile with iVisitMD™ Website or access certain functionality on the iVisitMD™ Website, you may be required to submit such personally identifiable Information. In this context, “Personal Information” means information that can identify you, such as your name, address, telephone number and email address. Additionally, some of our interactive tools/services may request you to submit health information, which would also be considered personal information. You are responsible for ensuring the accuracy of the personal information that you submit to iVisitMD™ Website. Please be advised that inaccurate information may affect your experience when using the iVisitMD™ Website and tools and our ability to contact you, if necessary.
Registration
Access to some iVisitMD™ interactive tools/services may be limited to registered users. Some of our tools do not retain your personal information while others store your personal information in accordance with this Privacy Policy and the authorization you provide at the time you submit personal information in order to use the tool.
Newsletters & Emails to You
At registration and at various times as you use the iVisitMD™ Website, you will be given the option of providing us with personal information in order to receive recurring informational newsletters – such as a newsletter relating to a specific health condition – via email from iVisitMD™ and/or directly from third parties. When you sign up for our email newsletters or at any time, you can choose to opt out of receiving additional newsletters from iVisitMD™ or our participating physicians.
Market Research
From time to time, iVisitMD™ may conduct online research surveys through email invitations, pop-up surveys and online focus groups. When participating in a survey, we may ask you to enter certain personal information. The personal information you submit in a survey may be used by iVisitMD™ for research and measurement purposes, as described below, including measuring the effectiveness of content, advertising or programs. When our market research surveys collect personal information we will not knowingly accept participants who are under the age of eighteen (18). Market research surveys conducted by or on behalf of iVisitMD™ will contain a link to this Privacy Policy.
Emails You Send to iVisitMD™
This Privacy Policy does not apply to information, content, business information, ideas, concepts or inventions that you send to iVisitMD™ by email. If you want to keep content or business information, ideas, concepts or inventions private or proprietary, do not send them in an email to iVisitMD™.
Non-Personal Information
Even if you do not register with or provide any personal information to iVisitMD™, we collect non-personal information about your use of the iVisitMD™ Website. “Non-Personal Information” means information that we cannot use to identify or contact you. We may also acquire non- personal information about our users from external sources. While you may use some of the functionality of iVisitMD™ without registration, many of the specific tools and services on the iVisitMD™ Website require that you register with iVisitMD™.
Cookies and Web Beacons
We collect non-personal information about your use of the iVisitMD™ Website and your use of other websites through the use of cookies and web beacons. “Cookies” are small data files that are stored on the hard drive of the computer you use to view a website. Every computer that accesses the iVisitMD™ Websites is assigned a different cookie by iVisitMD™. "Web Beacons" are graphic image files imbedded in a web page typically used to monitor activity on a web page and send back to its home server (which can belong to the host site, a network advertiser or some other third party) information from your browser, such as the IP address, the URL of the page on which the beacon is located, the type browser that is accessing the site and the ID number of any cookies on your computer previously placed by that server.
Third parties under contract with iVisitMD™ may use cookies or web beacons to collect non- personal information about your usage of the iVisitMD™ Website. These third party advertising service providers may use this information, on our behalf, to help iVisitMD™ deliver advertising on the iVisitMD™ Website as well as on other sites on the Internet based on your browsing activity on our sites. iVisitMD™ may further tailor the advertising on these third party sites based on additional non-personal information to the extent known by iVisitMD™ or these third parties.
Mobile Device Applications (“Apps”)
When you download and install one of our iVisitMD™ mobile applications onto your mobile device we assign a random number to your App installation. This number cannot be used to identify you personally, and we cannot identify you personally unless you choose to become a registered user of the App. We use this random number in a manner similar to our use of cookies as described in this Privacy Policy. Unlike cookies, the random number is assigned to your installation of the App itself and not a browser, because the App does not work through your browser. Therefore the random number cannot be removed through settings. If you do not want us to use the random number for the purposes for which we use cookies, please do not use the Mobile Device App, and please use your mobile device browser to access the iVisitMD™ Website or our mobile optimized sites. We do not obtain any information about your mobile device, other than the brand, make and model and type of operating software your device uses. Please note that certain iVisitMD™ Mobile Apps require registration either to use the App or to use certain functionality in the App.
iVisitMD™ Website asks for your consent (via an opt-in) before using information from pin- pointing technology like GPS or cell tower information. You can withdraw your consent (opt-out) for the use of "location" by iVisitMD™ at any time by changing your location services in the "Settings" function on your mobile device. We use location services on our Website to provide you content based upon your location, local search results, and local offers.
Non-Personal Information Collected by Third Parties Not Acting on IVisit MD’s Behalf
We work with third parties to display advertising that reflects the interests and preferences of our user community. Sponsors or advertisers on the iVisitMD™ Website may use their own Cookies, Web Beacons or other online tracking technologies in the banner advertisements served on the iVisitMD™ Website and in emails, special promotions or newsletters we send you. Their advertisements may be displayed on the iVisitMD™ Website or on other sites that you visit after you visit the iVisitMD™ Website. Some advertisers use companies other than iVisitMD™ to serve their ads and to monitor users' responses to ads, and these companies ("Ad Servers") may also collect non-personal information through the use of Cookies or Web Beacons on the iVisitMD™ Website. We do not control how third parties use Cookies or Web Beacons or how they manage the non-personal information they gather through the use of these technologies on the iVisitMD™ Website. However, we do require sponsors, advertisers and Ad Servers who collect cookie or web beacon information through the iVisitMD™ Website to agree that they will not collect any personal information from the iVisitMD™ Website without your consent. They have promised us they will not link any non-personal information collected by them on the iVisitMD™ Website to personal information they or others collect in other ways or from other sites except as may be described in connection with a particular program.
