Updated: January 7, 2019

This privacy policy covers the collection and use of information for this website and any websites or mobile applications that link to it, as well as the information we collect when you interact with us through social media or other websites and online services (in each instance a “website”). This website is managed and operated by Healthegy, Inc. If you are a resident of the European Economic Area (“EEA”) or Switzerland, please see “Users in the EEA and Switzerland” at the end of this Privacy Policy.

1. About Healthegy, Inc.
Healthegy, Inc. is a multi-media/event production company on a mission to deliver best-in-class content and conferences on healthcare innovation. We serve and leverage a broad network of venture capital firms, Key Opinion Leaders, private and public company CEOs, and other industry executives to identify and address the most pressing issues and compelling opportunities in the healthcare industry.

2. What Information We Collect
We collect two types of information about our website users: Personally Identifiable Information and Non-Personally Identifiable Information. Our primary goal in collecting information from you is to provide you with a smooth, efficient, and customized experience while using our Site.

Personally Identifiable Information: this refers to information that lets us know the specifics of who you are. When you engage in certain activities on our Site, such as contacting us, registering for our mailing list, making a purchase or sending us feedback, we may ask you to provide certain information about yourself by filling out and submitting an online form. It is completely optional for you to engage in these activities; however, we may ask that you provide us personal information, such as your first and last name, mailing address (including zip code), e-mail address, employer, job title and department, telephone and facsimile numbers, and other personally identifying information. Depending upon your activity, some of the information we ask you to provide is identified as mandatory. If you do not provide the mandatory data with respect to a particular activity, you will not be able to engage in that activity.

Non-Personally Identifiable Information: this refers to information that does not by itself identify a specific individual. We gather certain information about you based upon where you visit on our Site in several ways. This information is compiled and analyzed on both a personal and an aggregated basis. This information may include the website’s Uniform Resource Locator (“URL”) that you just came from, which URL you next go to, what browser you are using, and/or your Internet Protocol (“IP”) address.

Our websites incorporate tracking technologies managed by Google, Facebook, Twitter, and Hubspot, all of which have their own privacy policies. To learn more about their services, and to opt-out of their tracking, please visit the following resources:

3. How We Use and Disclose Information
Healthegy, Inc. may use and disclose your contact information for any of the following reasons:

  • To provide, maintain, personalize, optimize, and improve the website, including research and analytics regarding the use of the website, or to remember you when you leave and return to the website;

From time to time, Healthegy, Inc. may also share your contact information with other partnering organizations and sponsors for marketing purposes.

 In the event we are acquired by or merged with a third-party entity or in the unlikely event of our bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, receivership, or assignment for the benefit of creditors, we reserve the right, in any of these circumstances, to transfer or assign the information we have collected as part of such merger, acquisition, sale, or other change of control.

We may disclose Personally Identifiable Information to our affiliates. We may also disclose Personally Identifiable Information to third parties that partner with us or provide services for us, and to other third parties as permitted by law. Currently, our disclosure of Personally Identifiable Information is limited to the following purposes: (i) understanding the use of our Site and making improvements; (ii) administering a mailing list for customers that have registered for such list; (iii) responding to requests from or providing any necessary notices to you; (iv) protecting the security or integrity of our Site; and (v) otherwise administering or managing our Site software.

We will encourage our service partners to adopt and post privacy policies. However, the use of your Personally Identifiable Information by our service partners is governed by the privacy policies of those service partners and is not subject to our control.

Occasionally, we may be required by law enforcement or judicial authorities to provide Personally Identifiable Information to the appropriate governmental authorities. We will disclose Personally Identifiable Information upon receipt of a court order or subpoena or to cooperate with a law enforcement investigation. We fully cooperate with law enforcement agencies in identifying those who use our services for illegal activities. We reserve the right to report to law enforcement agencies any activities that we in good faith believe to be unlawful.

We may also provide Non-Personally Identifiable Information about our customers’ sales, traffic patterns, and related site information to third-party advertisers, but these statistics do not include any Personally Identifiable Information.

4. Summit APP
Individuals who have registered for conferences/summits held by Healthegy, Inc. are automatically imported into the Summit’s mobile meeting app attendee list for that year. The purpose of this feature is to allow attendees to direct message each other while onsite at the meeting. The only information displayed in the attendee directory is the person’s name and degree designations. Only individuals who are currently logged into the app are able to receive in-app messaging. All attendees have the option to opt-out of the attendee list in advance of the meeting by managing preferences in the settings section. All speakers and presenters who have provided bios, CVs, and other personally identifiable information to the Summit will have this information displayed alongside his/her course descriptions.
