MetroAtlanta Ambulance Service respects the privacy
of visitors to our site. This Privacy Policy governs the use and
collection of information from you by MetroAtlanta Ambulance Service.
Please read this Privacy Policy carefully so that you understand
our privacy practices. By visiting this website, you agree that
your visit, and any dispute over our privacy practices, is governed
by this Privacy Policy should be directed to our Vice President
of Administration: devan.seabaugh@maas911.com
CHILDREN'S PRIVACY
Children should always get permission from their parents before
sending any information about themselves (such as their names, email
addresses, and phone numbers) over the Internet, to us or to anyone
else. We won't knowingly allow anyone under 13 to register with
any of our sites or to provide any other personally identifying
information.
TYPES OF INFORMATION WE COLLECT
The information we gather falls into two categories: (1) personally-identifying
information (for example, your name and address), such as the information
you voluntarily supply when you register or initiate transactions,
and (2) information gathered on usage patterns and preferences as
visitors navigate through our sites, or read our email newsletters.
In some cases, it its an agent or affiliate of ours that collects
the information on our behalf.
REGISTRATION INFORMATION
To make use of certain features on our websites (such as to receive
email notifications of press releases, or apply for a job) visitors
need to register and to provide certain information as part of the
registration process.
Supplying such information is entirely voluntary. But if you don't
supply the information we need, we may be unable to provide you
with services we make available to other visitors to our sites.
And we can't send you email alerting you to a new service we're
offering, or breaking news that may interest you if you don't tell
us what you're interested in and give us your email address.
Cookies. To help make our sites more responsive to the needs of
our visitors, we use a standard feature of browser software, called
a "cookie," to assign each visitor a unique, random number,
a sort of user ID, if you will, that resides on your computer. The
cookie doesn't actually identify the visitor, just the computer
that a visitor uses to access our site. Unless you voluntarily identify
yourself (through registration, for example), we won't know who
you are, even if we assign a cookie to your computer. The only personal
information a cookie can contain is information you supply. A cookie
can't read unrelated data off your hard drive. Our advertisers and
the third parties that provide products or services through our
sites may also assign their own cookies to your browser, a process
that we don't control.
We use cookies to help us tailor our site to your needs, to deliver
a better, more personalized service. For example, we use cookies
to avoid showing you the same ad, repeatedly, during a single visit.
In addition, we may use cookies to track the pages on our sites
visited by our users. We can build a better site if we know which
pages our users are visiting and how often. Of course, you can set
your browser not to accept cookies, but if you do, you may not be
able to take advantage of the personalized features enjoyed by other
visitors to our sites.
Other Methods of Collecting Information.
IP Addresses. Our web servers automatically collect limited information
about your computer's connection to the Internet, including your
IP address, when you visit our sites. (Your IP address is a number
that lets computers attached to the Internet know where to send
you data -- such as the web pages you view.) Your IP address does
not identify you personally to us. We use this information to deliver
our web pages to you upon request, to tailor our sites to the interests
of our users, and to measure traffic within our sites.
DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION
Sites to Which We Link. Of course, our website includes links to
plenty of other websites, and provide access to products and services
offered by third parties, whose privacy policies we don't control.
When you access another website or purchase products or services
or conduct other transactions through our websites, use of any information
you provide is governed by the privacy policy of the operator of
the site you're visiting or the provider of such products or services.
Other Disclosures. We may occasionally release information about
our visitors when release is appropriate to comply with law, to
enforce our Visitor Agreement, or to protect the rights, property
or safety of visitors to our sites, the public, or our company and
its employees and agents. As our business grows, we may buy or sell
various assets. In the unlikely event that our company, or the bulk
of our assets relating to this website, is acquired by another company,
information on our visitors would be among the transferred assets.
STORAGE OF INFORMATION
All information gathered on our website is encrypted for storage
within a database operated by us or by a contractor on our behalf.
However, as effective as encryption technology is, no security system
is impenetrable. We cannot guarantee the security of our database,
nor can we guarantee that information you supply won't be intercepted
while being transmitted to us over the Internet.
