Privacy Policy

Information that Haykel Hospital Collects

In general, anyone can visit our website and access published information while remaining anonymous and not revealing any personal information. Registration is not required to view anything on our website. We do not collect personal information from individuals via the website unless it is provided knowingly and voluntarily, as explained below. For security reasons, our web site collects IP addresses of visitors to our website, but this information is not shared with anyone outside of the Foundation and our web hosting providers.

Haykel Hospital collects personal information knowingly and voluntarily provided by individuals through our Web site or to our office. Reasons for voluntary submission of information include, but are not limited to, signing up to receive our E-Statement of account, submitting an online conference abstract for consideration, registering for an event, purchasing items online, donating online, by mail or by telephone, or requesting additional information. The categories of personal information that we collect depend on the circumstances (e.g., signing up to receive our E-Statement of account versus donating online), but may include your name, address, telephone number, phone number, email address, date of birth, and credit card information.

When Haykel Hospital Discloses the Information, It Collects

We will not disclose your personal information to third parties other than for the following reasons:

  • you expressly authorize disclosure and/or it is necessary to complete a transaction that you have requested;
  • disclosure is necessary or relevant to the operation of the Web site or the Foundation, such as in the case of sending Foundation mail or performing accounting or auditing services for the Foundation;
  • the Foundation is required to disclose the information by law, court order, or other valid legal process, or to protect the Foundation’s rights or property; and
  • the information is disclosed to any successor organization to the Foundation or any acquirer of the Foundation’s principal assets.

In addition, the Foundation does not trade, share, sell, or rent names of our donors or constituents with other organizations, nor send donor mailings on behalf of other organizations.

Finally, when you send a donation in honor or in memory of someone and request that an acknowledgment be sent to another individual or a family, we will use the name and address of that individual or family for acknowledgment purposes only.

How Haykel Hospital Protects Your Personal Information

We maintain commercially reasonable physical, electronic, and administrative safeguards to protect your personal information from unauthorized or inappropriate access.

Additionally, access to confidential information is limited to those who open the mail and who process, steward and receipt donor contributions. HHF also uses encrypted data and a secure online donation portal. Web security is a priority of the Foundation and we work with our tech team to ensure information is protected as best as we can.

Links to Other Web Sites

Our Web site contains links to other non-Haykel Hospital web sites. Although we try to link only to Web sites that share our concern for customer information privacy, we are not responsible for the content, security or privacy practices of such third-party web sites. This Web site will, on occasion, use a secure third-party web site for event registration and abstract submissions. If you are not comfortable using a third-party web site to register for an event or submit an online abstract, please contact the Foundation’s office to make alternative arrangements. The Foundation uses Authorize.net to accept credit card donations. Those who wish to make a donation without using a credit card should contact our office to learn about other options.

Cookies

Other than the specific instances outlined in this Privacy Policy, the Foundation does not collect personal information about users or how individuals use the site. The Foundation also does not use the information-tracking devices made possible through “cookies,” which are small pieces of data that may be sent to your Web browser from a server and stored on your computer’s hard drive.

How to Update Personal Information

Changes to this Privacy Policy

We may revise this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect new or changed features and services, changes in the law, or changes in our use or collection of personal information.  We display an effective date on this Privacy Policy so you can tell when there has been a change.  If we make a change regarding our use or disclosure of personal information, we will provide notice of such change on the Web site. Your continued use of the Web site after notice of a new or revised Privacy Policy is posted on the Web site shall constitute your acceptance of any such changes to the Privacy Policy.
