Information Collection
Appointment Manager is the sole owner of the information collected on
www.appointmentmanageronline.com. Appointment Manager collects information from our users at several different points on our web site. Appointment Manager explicitly asks when it needs information that personally identifies you pertinent to the specific services you are choosing to subscribe to on the Appointment Manager web site. This information can include your e-mail address, name, postal address, telephone number, and credit card information, as applicable. Appointment Manager also may ask for non-personal information, business contact information or demographic information.
Registration
In order to use services provided by Appointment Manager web site, a user must first complete the registration form. During registration a user is required to provide business contact information, such as first and last name, company name, address, phone number and e-mail address as well as to choose username and password. We use this information to establish customer account to provide the user with services on our site for which he has expressed interest. We also require a user’s credit card number to establish regular online scheduling account or partner account. Credit card is not required in order to establish free trial account or affiliate account.
Subscription
We request information from the user on our accounts enrollment and partner enrollment forms. New users must provide contact information, such as such as first and last name, company name, address, phone number and e-mail address as well as billing information, such as credit card number, expiration date, cardholder name and billing address. This information is used for automated billing purposes. If we have trouble processing account subscription payments, the information is used to contact the user.
Information Use
Appointment Manager and Appointment Manager service partners use your personal information to operate Appointment Manager web site and to provide Appointment Manager services you have requested. The information is also used to communicate with you regarding your Appointment Manager accounts when such communication is essential to the operation of the service. You may not opt-out from communications deemed essential to the operation of the service other than by terminating your services with Appointment Manager. We also use your e-mail address to respond to incoming service and support requests from you, to collect customer feedback, and to perform customer satisfaction surveys. We do not use your e-mail address, postal address, or phone numbers for promotional comminucations.
Appointment Manager may disclose your personal information if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to: (a) conform to the edicts of the law or comply with legal process served on Appointment Manager; (b) protect and defend the rights or property of Appointment Manager or the users of Appointment Manager services; or, (c) act under exigent circumstances to protect the personal safety of users of Appointment Manager services or the public.
Personally identifiable information collected by Appointment Manager may be stored and processed in the United States or any other country in which Appointment Manager or its partners, subsidiaries or agents maintain facilities, and by using this site, you consent to any such transfer of information outside of your country.
Information Security
Appointment Manager secures your personal information from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. Appointment Manager secures the personally identifiable information you provide on computer servers in a controlled, secure environment, protected from unauthorized access. All sensitive personal information (such as a credit card number and other financial information) is stored in encrypted data format.
When our registration/order form asks users to enter sensitive information, such as credit card number and other financial information, that information is encrypted and is protected with the best encryption software in the industry - Secure Socket Layer (SSL). While on a secure page, such as our enrollment form, the lock icon on the bottom of Web browsers such as Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer becomes locked, as opposed to un-locked, or open, when users are just ‘surfing’.
While we use SSL encryption to protect sensitive information online, we also do everything in our power to protect user-information off-line. All of our users’ information, not just the sensitive information mentioned above, is restricted in our offices and data center space. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job are granted access to personally identifiable information. Furthermore, all our employees are kept up-to-date on our security and privacy practices. Every time new policies are added, all of our employees are notified. Finally, the servers that store personally identifiable information are in a secure environment within controlled access facility, locked in private cabinets.
Changes to Personal Information
If a user’s personally
identifiable information changes (such as company name,
phone, e-mail, postal address, etc.), or if a user no longer
desires Appointment Manager services, we provide a way to
correct, update or deactivate users’ personally identifiable
information. To review and update your personal contact
information, login to your account and go to Account Setup Center.
Confidentiality
Appointment Manager is committed to keeping user’s personally identifiable information confidential. Appointment Manager never shares service provider schedules with anyone except the service provider's authorized personnel. For users scheduling appointments with a service provider, Appointment Manager does not share their personal schedule information with anyone except the service provider with whom they make an appointment. All customer contact information and appointment information is kept confidential. Service providers can only view information related to their own appointments.
No Cookies
A cookie is a piece of data stored on the user’s computer tied to information about the user. Appointment Manager web site does not use cookies. You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most Web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer.

Log Files
Like most standard web site servers we use log files. This includes Internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, platform type, date/time stamp, and number of clicks to analyze trends, administer the site, track user’s movement in the aggregate, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. IP addresses and other log elements are not linked to personally identifiable information.
Service Announcements
On very rare occasions it is necessary to send out a strictly service related announcement. For instance, if our service is temporarily suspended for maintenance we might send users an e-mail. Generally, users may not opt-out of these communications, though they can deactivate their account. However, service related communications are not promotional in nature.
Customer Service
We communicate with users on a regular basis to provide requested services and in regards to issues relating to their account we reply via e-mail or phone, in accordance with the user's wishes and Appointment Manager customer communication practices.
Legal Disclaimer
Though we make every effort to
preserve user privacy, we may need to disclose personal

good-faith belief that such action is necessary to comply
with a current judicial proceeding, a court order or legal
process served on Appointment Manager web site.

We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each and every web site that collects personally identifiable information. This privacy statement applies solely to information collected by
Account Manager web site.
Surveys and Feedback Requests
From time-to-time Appointment Manager requests information from users via surveys and feedback requests. Participation in these surveys is completely voluntary and the user therefore has a choice whether or not to disclose this information. The requested information typically includes contact information only. Contact information will be used only to facilitate communication between Appointment Manager and survey participants. Anonymous survey information will be used for purposes of monitoring or improving the use and satisfaction of Appointment Manager services. Users’ personally identifiable information is not shared with third parties unless we give prior notice and choice. Though we may use an intermediary to conduct these surveys or contests, they may not use users’ personally identifiable information for any secondary purposes.
Referrals
If a user elects to use our referral service for informing a friend about our site, we ask them for the friend’s name and e-mail address. Appointment Manager will send the friend a one-time e-mail inviting them to visit the site. Appointment Manager does not store referral information after sending this one-time e-mail.
Agents
Appointment Manager uses a credit card processing company to bill you for services. Credit card transactions are processed by
PayPal Virtual Terminal, which has confidentiality of transactions covered by their privacy policy.
PayPal Virtual Terminal performs secure encrypted credit card transactions for thousands of companies and has stringent security measures in place.
PayPal Virtual Terminal does not retain, share, store or use personally identifiable information for any purposes other than processing credit card transactions.
Children
Appointment Manager does not intend to collect any personally identifiable information from individuals under the age of 13. Children should always request permission from their parent or guardian prior to submitting their personal information online. If a child has provided Appointment Manager with personally identifiable information, child's parent or guardian should contact us if they would like to request such information to be deleted from Appointment Manager records. We will make all reasonable efforts to remove personally identifiable information of the child from Appointment Manager files and databases.
Notification of Changes
If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes to this privacy statement, the news page, and other places we deem appropriate so our users are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it. If, however, we are going to use users’ personally identifiable information in a manner different from that stated at the time of collection we will notify users by posting a notice on our web site for 30 days. We encourage you to periodically review this Privacy Statement to be informed of how Appointment Manager is protecting your information.
