Last Updated: June 25, 2020

Overview

Welcome to the bzpt.net website (the “Site”). This Site or Mobile Application is owned and operated by National Cardiovascular Partners, LP or one or more of its direct or indirect subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively, the “NCP,” “we” or “us”). NCP knows that you care how information about you is used and shared. This Privacy Notice explains what we may do with information that we collect from or about you when you use our website or certain other affiliated websites or applications that link to or post this Privacy Notice.

Certain uses or disclosure of personal information may be governed by other privacy notices. At times our covered entities may collect personal information about you that constitutes Protected Health Information (PHI) pursuant to the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). Our use and disclosure of PHI is subject to our HIPAA Notice of Privacy Practices and not this Website Privacy Notice. You can access our Notice of Privacy Practices here.

If you are a California resident, California law may provide you with additional rights regarding our use of your personal information. To learn more about your California privacy rights, please see our California Privacy Notice below.

Changes to this Website Privacy Notice

NCP reserves the right to change this Privacy Notice at any time. The Last Updated date of this Privacy Notice is at the top of this page. As business needs change, we will review our practices regarding the collection and use of personal information and amend this Privacy Notice as appropriate. Your continued use of the website or application after the Effective Date constitutes your acceptance of the amended Privacy Notice.

What personal information do we collect?

In this Privacy Notice, “personal information” means information that may identify you as an individual. Personal Information does not include information that has been “deidentified” in such a way that your identity cannot reasonably be determined.

When interacting with our website or application, we may ask you for your name, e-mail address, mailing address, phone number, credit card information or other information, depending on the circumstances. You may, however, visit portions of our website without providing such information.

We also receive and store other types of personal information whenever you interact with our website or application. For example, we may use web beacons and other technologies to collect information about your use of our websites or applications, including your IP address, web browser, pages viewed, time spent on pages, links clicked and conversion information. Like many websites, we use “cookies” and other tracking technologies such as pixel tags, to enhance your experience and gather information about visitors and visits to our website. Please refer to the “Do we use ‘cookies’?” section below for information about cookies and other tracking technologies and how we use them.

Do we use “cookies”?

Yes. We and our service providers use various tracking technologies, including cookies, to collect information about you when you interact with our websites or applications. Cookies are small files that a website or its service provider transfers to your computer’s hard drive through your Web browser (if you allow) that enables the site’s or service provider’s systems to recognize your browser and capture and remember certain information. Cookies help us in many ways to make your use of our website more enjoyable and meaningful, such as understanding usage patterns and improving functionality of the website. For instance, we use cookies to help us understand your preferences based on previous or current website activity, which enables us to provide you with improved services. We also use cookies to help us compile aggregate data about website traffic and website interaction so that we can offer better website experiences and tools in the future.

You can choose to have your computer warn you each time a cookie is being sent, or you can choose to turn off all cookies. You do this through your browser (like Google Chrome or Internet Explorer) settings. Each browser is a little different, so look at your browser Help menu to learn the correct way to modify your cookies. If you turn cookies off, you won’t have access to many features that make your website more efficient and some of our services will not function properly.

Analytics Services Provided by Others

We may allow others to provide analytics services on our behalf (such as Google Analytics). For example, we use analytics partners to help us analyze and track data, determine the popularity of certain content, deliver advertising and content targeted to your interests and other websites and better understand your online activity. You can learn more about how Google Analytics uses your data by visiting http://www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/.

We encourage you to take reasonable precautions to safeguard your personal information.

If you visit the third party link, you will be subject to that third party’s privacy practices and policies, which may differ from this Privacy Notice. A link to a third-party website or service does not mean that we endorse that third party or the quality or accuracy of the information presented on its website or service. Nonetheless, we seek to protect the integrity of our website and welcome any feedback about these linked sites (including if a specific link does not work).

This website or mobile application is intended for users located in the United States, and this Website Privacy Notice describes how we use and disclose your personal information pursuant to United States law.

Sharing Personal Information

We may disclose the personal information described above to third parties for business or commercial purposes, such as our affiliates, service providers and others who you or your agents authorize to receive your personal information in connection with products or services we provide to you. The recipient is required to maintain the confidentiality of your personal information unless you consent or further disclosure is authorized by law.

In the preceding twelve (12) months, we have not sold any personal information.

Your Rights and Choices

This section describes California residents’ rights with respect to personal information protected by the CCPA, as well as how to exercise those rights.

Access to Specific Information and Data Portability Rights

You have the right to request that we disclose certain information to you about our collection and use of your personal information over the past 12 months. We will disclose in response to a verifiable consumer request:

• The categories and sources for personal information we collected about you.
• Our business or commercial purpose for collecting or selling that personal information.
• The categories of third parties with whom we share that personal information.
• The specific pieces of personal information we collected about you (also called a data portability request).
• If we disclosed your personal information for a business purpose, we will identify the personal information categories that each category of recipient obtained.

Although we do not sell personal information, if we ever do so in the future, we will provide a list of such sales, identifying the personal information categories that each category of recipient purchased.

Deletion Request Rights

You have the right to request that we delete personal information that we collected from you and retained, subject to certain exceptions. We may deny your deletion request if retaining the information is necessary for us or our service providers to:

1. Complete the transaction for which we collected the personal information, provide a good or service that you requested, take actions reasonably anticipated within the context of our ongoing business relationship with you, or otherwise perform our contract with you.
2. Detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or prosecute those responsible for such activities.
3. Debug products to identify and repair errors that impair existing intended functionality.
4. Exercise free speech, ensure the right of another consumer to exercise their free speech rights, or exercise another right provided for by law.
5. Comply with the California Electronic Communications Privacy Act (Cal. Penal Code § 1546 seq.).
6. Engage in public or peer-reviewed scientific, historical, or statistical research in the public interest that adheres to all other applicable ethics and privacy laws, when the information’s deletion may likely render impossible or seriously impair the research’s achievement, if you previously provided informed consent.
7. Enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with consumer expectations based on your relationship with us.
8. Comply with a legal obligation.
9. Make other internal and lawful uses of that information that are compatible with the context in which you provided it.

Exercising Access, Data Portability, and Deletion Rights

To exercise the access, data portability, and deletion rights described above, please submit a verifiable consumer request by either:

• Calling us at 1-833-352-0001
• Visiting http://fmcna.com/privacy-policy0/ccpa-form/

You may only make a verifiable consumer request for access or data portability twice within a 12-month period. The verifiable consumer request must:

• Provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected personal information or an authorized representative.
• Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.

Only you or a person registered with the California Secretary of State that you authorize to act on your behalf, may make a verifiable consumer request related to your personal information. You may also make a verifiable consumer request on behalf of your minor child.

We cannot respond to your request or provide you with personal information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the personal information relates to you. Making a verifiable consumer request does not require you to create an account with us. We will only use personal information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor’s identity or authority to make the request.

Response Timing and Format

We aim to respond to a verifiable consumer request within 45 days of its receipt. If we require more time (up to 90 days), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing. If you do not have an account with us, we will deliver our written response by mail or electronically, at your option.

Any disclosures we provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding the verifiable consumer request’s receipt. The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable. For data portability requests, we will select a format to provide your personal information that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance.

We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable consumer request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.

Non-Discrimination

We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA rights. Unless permitted by the CCPA, we will not:

• Deny you goods or services.
• Charge you different prices or rates for goods or services, including through granting discounts or other benefits, or imposing penalties.
• Provide you a different level or quality of goods or services.
• Suggest that you may receive a different price or rate for goods or services or a different level or quality of goods or services.

Changes to Our Privacy Notice

We reserve the right to amend this privacy notice at our discretion and at any time. When we make changes to this privacy notice, we will notify you by email or through a notice on our website homepage.
