#2. Privacy

The personalized entry information provided is subject to the Privacy Policy below.

Centene is very aware of your privacy concerns and others who visit this web site may have. This statement is intended to explain the types of information Centene may obtain about visitors to our Web Site (the “Site”) and how the information is used.

A. Collected Information. Centene follows standard web analytics practices by tracking browsing patterns to inform our understanding of how our sites are used, what information is most important, and how best to serve the needs of our users. We analyze the information gathered to better serve you and future users of our digital communications. Our site may use methods or leverage tools such as Google Analytics for these purposes. We cannot identify people with these methods or tools. The generic information collected is based on an IP address, which is the location of a computer or network. We collect data from browsers, along with the information requested and sent by the browser’s operator, to provide meaningful reports about how our sites are used, but not specifically by whom.

You may change these settings on your browser or through the application directly depending on the methodology or tools utilized; however, doing so may prevent you from using the full functionality of all our Sites. Centene will not associate your IP address and web usage data with any other information that can specifically identify you unless we are required to do so by law.

Cookies placed by tools such as Google Analytics are transmitted to and stored by Google on its servers. For example, Google uses this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of websites, compiling reports on the Site and other website activity, and providing other services relating to Internet usage. Google may also transfer this information to third parties where required to do so by law, or where such third parties process the information on Google’s behalf.

By using this Site, you consent to the processing of data about your Site visits in the manner and for the purposes set out above.

B. Who Collects This Information. Centene collects the information described above via the Site. In the case of third-party features such as advertising, co-branded areas or links to other web sites, such third parties may also collect information. You should review the applicable privacy policies of these third parties before providing personally identifiable information. Centene is not responsible for any actions or policies of such third parties.

C. How Collected Information Is Used. Generally, Centene uses registration information to learn more about how visitors use the Site and to measure areas of interest. This allows Centene to build features and functionality that will enhance your Site experience. We might also use this information to provide customer support, enforce our Web Site Terms and Conditions or other similar matters. Aggregate information is also used to help us run and maintain the Site, study traffic patterns and generally learn about the usage of the Site. Centene may share the information you provide to its subsidiary and affiliated companies solely for internal use.

Unrelated Companies. Centene may occasionally share limited customer information with companies we hire to provide operational, marketing, or advertising support, companies that help us distribute our products and services, companies that provide products and services we want to offer, or accreditation agencies for continuing education. The companies we choose must satisfy our security and privacy requirements. We share your information with these companies only if they agree to treat it confidentially and only if it is legally permissible to do so. We limit the information we provide these companies to what we reasonably believe they “need to know” in connection with their agreement with Centene, and we don’t permit them to use our customer information for any purposes outside our oversight or control.

Government Authorities and Litigation. Sometimes a law, court order, or other judicial or administrative process requires us to provide information to a government authority or party to a private lawsuit. We will provide the information that we in good faith believe is required to comply with the law, order, or other process. We may also have to disclose certain information in court documents if we have to bring an action against you, for example, to collect a debt you owe us.

D. With Whom The Information May Be Shared. Outside the scope of required regulatory reporting to accreditation agencies for continuing education, we will not knowingly disclose or authorize the disclosure of personal identifiable information (other than aggregate statistical information) to any third party without your consent unless (1) we have reason to believe that disclosing this information is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against someone who may have breached our Web Site Terms and Conditions or who may be causing injury to or interference with (either intentionally or unintentionally) Centene’s rights or property, other Site users, or anyone else who could be harmed by such activities or (2) we believe in good faith that the law requires it. We will share program and activity data, potentially including personal identifiable information with accreditation agencies, including but not limited to the Joint Accreditation Program and Activity Reporting System.

E. Link To Other Sites. While you are using the Site, you may be linked or directed to other third-party web sites outside the Site that are beyond Centene’s control. Each of these third parties may have a privacy policy different from that of Centene. These links and banners may take you to the web sites of advertisers, sponsors and co-branding partners. Centene is not responsible for any actions or policies of such third parties. These other web sites may send their own cookies to users, collect data or solicit personal information. You should review the applicable privacy policies of these third-party web sites before providing personally identifiable information.

F. Security Procedures We Use. Centene has adopted and adheres to security standards to protect non-public personal information against accidental or unauthorized access or disclosure. We have developed administrative, physical, and technical barriers to protect the information stored on this Site.

G. Changes in These Terms. We may change this Privacy Policy from time to time and will post notices on the Site at the time of any material changes to this Privacy Policy. Your continued use of the Site following the posting of changes to these terms will mean you accept those changes. Please contact us if you have questions or concerns regarding Centene’s Privacy Statement.

H. International Jurisdictions. The Website is hosted in the United States of America and is subject to U.S. state and federal law. If you are accessing our Website from other jurisdictions, please be advised that you are transferring your personal information to us in the United States, and by using our Website, you consent to that transfer and use of your personal information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. You also agree to abide by the applicable laws of applicable states and U.S. federal law concerning your use of the Website and your agreements with us. Any persons accessing our Website from any jurisdiction with laws or regulations governing the use of the Internet, including personal data collection, use and disclosure, different from those of the jurisdictions mentioned above may only use the Website in a manner lawful in their jurisdiction. If your use of the Website would be unlawful in your jurisdiction, you may not use the Website.
