Introduction

LincWare ("LincWare”, "We", “Us”, or “Our”) respects your privacy and is committed to protecting it through our compliance with this policy.

This privacy policy (“Policy”) describes the types of information we may collect from you or that you may provide when you any of our software, including but not limited to Admit+, or anywhere where this Policy is posted ("Admit+") and our practices for collecting, using, maintaining, protecting, and disclosing that information. 

This Policy applies to information we collect:

It does not apply to information collected by any third party including through any application or content (including advertising) that may link to or be accessible from or on Admit+. 

Please read this Policy carefully to understand our policies and practices regarding your information and how we will treat it. If you do not agree with our policies and practices, your choice is not to use Admit+. By accessing or using Admit+, you agree to this Privacy Policy.  This Policy may change from time to time (see Changes to Our Privacy Policy). Your continued use of Admit+ after we make changes is deemed to be acceptance of those changes, so please check the Policy periodically for updates.

HIPAA Information

As a provider of healthcare related software, we may be subject to certain laws and regulations governing the use and disclosure of Personal Health Information (“PHI”). When using Admit+, we may receive your protected health information and may collect, use, and disclose other personally identifiable information (as outlined below). Under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act and its implementing regulations (“HIPAA”), certain demographic, health, and/or health-related information that we receive from your health care providers as part of providing our services to them may be considered “PHI.” 

Under HIPAA, when a Covered Entity, such as a healthcare provider or their facility, contracts with a third party and shares PHI to assist with aspects of the Covered Entity’s work, then that third party is considered a Business Associate and is subject to the same rules regarding the protection of PHI as the Covered Entity. Where applicable, we require all our Customers to sign a Business Associate Agreement with us. When we are considered a Business Associate, we will only use and disclose your PHI as allowed under HIPAA or as consistent with the applicable Covered Entity's privacy policies, notices, and the Business Associate Agreement. We will use reasonable and appropriate safeguards to protect the PHI that we store and process on behalf of Covered Entities. 

Children Under the Age of 13

Admit+ are not intended for children under 13 years of age. No one under age 13 may provide any information to or on Admit+. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are under 13, do not use or provide any information on Admit+. If we learn we have collected or received personal information from a child under 13 without verification of parental consent, we will delete that information. If you believe we might have any information from or about a child under 13, please contact us at support@lincware.com or 585-563-1669.
