Choices About How We Use and Disclose Your Information
We strive to provide you with choices regarding the personal information you provide to us. We have created mechanisms to provide you with the following control over your information:
- Tracking Technologies and Advertising. You can set your browser to refuse all or some browser cookies, or to alert you when cookies are being sent. If you disable or refuse cookies, please note that some parts of this site may then be inaccessible or not function properly.
- Disclosure of Your Information for Third-Party Advertising. If you do not want us to share your personal information with unaffiliated or non-agent third parties for promotional purposes, you can opt-out by sending us an email at support@memrhealth.com.
- Promotional Offers from the Company. If you do not wish to have your email address/contact information used by the Company to promote our own or third parties' products or services, you can opt-out by sending us an email at support@memrhealth.com.
Accessing and Correcting Your Information
You can review and change your personal information by logging into the Website and visiting your account profile page.
You may request access to, obtain copies of, or request amendments to your PHI by contacting our Privacy Officer at support@memrhealth.com. All such requests will be handled in accordance with HIPAA requirements, including verification of identity and authority to access the requested information. You have the right to receive an accounting of disclosures of your PHI as provided by HIPAA.
Do Not Track Settings
Certain web browsers offer a "do not track" option that communicates to websites your preference not to have your online actions monitored. This is distinct from blocking or erasing cookies since even with the "do not track" function activated, browsers might still accept cookies. Presently, there's no universal guideline on how businesses should address these "do not track" requests, but one might emerge later on. Currently, we don't acknowledge "do not track" requests; if that changes, we'll update this Privacy Policy to explain our approach.

Colorado, Connecticut, Virginia, and Utah each provide their state residents with rights to:
- Confirm whether we process their personal information.
- Access and delete certain personal information.
- Data portability.

Colorado, Connecticut, and Virginia also provide their state residents with rights to:

Nevada provides its residents with a limited right to opt-out of certain personal information sales. However, we do not currently sell data triggering that statute's opt-out requirements.
Data Security
We have implemented measures designed to secure your personal health information in accordance with HIPAA Security Rule requirements and industry best practices, which is particularly critical for our automated medical record retrieval and analysis services. All protected health information (PHI), including retrieved medical records and AI analysis results, is stored on HIPAA-compliant servers with enterprise-grade encryption at rest and in transit.
We maintain administrative, physical, and technical safeguards including access controls, audit logging, encryption (minimum AES-256), and secure backup systems. Our AI processing environments are isolated and secured, and all automated analysis is conducted within HIPAA-compliant environments. Any payment transactions and other sensitive information are protected using TLS 1.3 encryption technology and we maintain compliance with HITECH Act requirements.
The safety and security of your information also depends on you. Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password for access to certain parts of our Website, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential.
We maintain breach notification protocols as required by HIPAA and applicable state laws, and will notify affected individuals, the Secretary of HHS, and, in some cases, the media in the event of a breach of unsecured protected health information in accordance with federal and state requirements.
Changes to Our Privacy Policy
It is our policy to post any changes we make to our privacy policy on this page with a notice that the privacy policy has been updated on the Website home page. If we make material changes to how we treat protected health information (PHI) or other personal information, we will notify you by email to the primary email address specified in your account and/or through a notice on the Website home page. The date the privacy policy was last revised is identified at the top of the page.
