Our Commitment to Privacy

This privacy policy applies to www.myimpactnetwork.com owned and operated by IQVIA ("ImpactNetwork", "We", "Us" or "Our"). At ImpactNetwork (owned and operated by IQVIA ), our business is to better serve you by providing you with the interesting, customized experiences you expect and by soliciting your information, views, and opinions on our mobile app and on our ImpactNetwork web site at www.myimpactnetwork.com. This privacy policy describes how ImpactNetwork collects and uses the personally identifiable information you provide on our mobile app and web sites. It also describes the choices available to you regarding the use of, your access to, and how to update and correct your personally identifiable information. Protection of privacy is a fundamental part of our business. We view these responsibilities to you and our clients as the basis for long-term, rewarding relationships.

What We Will Not Do

We will share your personally identifiable information with third parties only in the ways that are described in this privacy policy.

We will not provide your personally identifiable responses to any market research survey question or educational program request for information to any third party, other than as expressly set forth below, unless such question or request is expressly identified.

The only exceptions to the foregoing promises are as follows: We may provide your personally identifiable information, responses to any market research survey question or educational program request for information to a third party market research or consulting group; however, such information, responses, and requests would be provided only under terms and conditions of confidentiality and permitted use that are consistent with this Privacy Policy. For instance, in the course of our work we may collaborate with another market research company to assist us or our clients in the analysis of data. In the course of such work, that market research company may need to access your personally identifiable responses; however, that market research company would be required to adhere to terms substantially similar to the terms of this Privacy Policy. We may also provide opportunities to participate in studies with our research partners who will also be required to adhere to our privacy policy.

We may provide your personally identifiable information to companies that provide services to help us with our business activities such as mailing and verifying medical education numbers/DEA numbers. These companies are authorized to use your personally identifiable information only as necessary to provide these services to us.

In the event of the sale of all or substantially all of the business or assets of ImpactNetwork or a liquidation in bankruptcy, we may make your personally identifiable information, responses and requests available to an acquirer; however, we will not do so except under terms requiring the acquirer to adhere to terms substantially similar to the terms of this Privacy Policy. In this event, you will be notified via email and/or a prominent notice on our web site of any change in ownership or uses of your personally identifiable information, as well as any choices you may have regarding your personally identifiable information.

ImpactNetwork will comply with all applicable laws, such as comply with a subpoena, bankruptcy proceedings or similar legal process, rules, regulations, and orders of any court or government administrative body. Such compliance may require the disclosure of your personally identifiable information, responses and requests. We may also disclose personally identifiable information when we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, protect your safety or the safety of others or investigate fraud. ImpactNetwork will use reasonable efforts, as appropriate, to avoid or minimize any public disclosure.
