The Cleveland Clinic is very interested in the privacy and safety of our visitors. Our Web site contains forms through which users may request information or supply feedback to us. In some cases, telephone numbers or return addresses are required so that we can supply requested information to you, and in other cases, correct names and addresses are required to process credit card payments. We store your credit card number in our database until your second opinion consult is complete. Once your consult is complete, we delete this information. If you request an additional second opinion, then you will be asked to supply your credit card information again.

We may also track where you go or what you read in our Web site so that we can supply you with effective follow-up information, but only if you have given us explicit permission to do so by filling out a form that asks you if we may do so. This form is available by contacting e-Cleveland Clinic at 216.444.3223, toll-free at 800.223.2273 ext 43223 or via
e-mail at eClevelandClinic@ccf.org.

We do not provide any information supplied on the Web form to any outside organization for any reason (other than where we may be required by law, or as necessary to process credit card information). We also do Web traffic analysis through which we track statistics such as which pages are visited in what order, where users come from, and how long users spend on our site, but we never associate such information with specific identities.

We ask you to register on our site using a user ID and password in order to provide a secure environment for the information you send to us. Once registered, your information is encrypted using 128-bit SSL encryption.
