Privacy Policy

We Value Your Privacy & Protect Your Information

River Dentistry respects your privacy and is committed to protecting it at all times. This online Privacy Policy explains how River Dentistry collects, uses, and safeguards information on our websites.

Data Collection

We collect information about our users in three ways: directly from users, from analytics, and through cookies and other technologies. We use the information primarily to provide you with a better website experience that delivers the information, resources, and services that are most relevant and helpful to you. We don’t share any of the information you provide with others, unless we mention it in this Privacy Policy, the Terms of Use, or when we believe in good faith that the law requires it.

You should review this Policy and our related Terms of Use. By accessing our websites and using our services, you agree to this Privacy Policy and to be bound by our Terms of Use. If you do not agree to this Privacy Policy or the Terms of Use, you should end this session now and refrain from using our websites in the future.

Information We Collect

When you browse our websites and do not interact by filling out a form or completing a purchase, you browse anonymously. Information that identifies you personally — such as your name, address, phone number and e-mail address — is not collected as you browse. We may collect some non-personally identifiable information about your browsing habits using cookies in order to improve our website and to provide you with more relevant content.

When you submit questions or comments, request an appointment, purchase a product or service, participate in online survey, request information or materials, or become a registered user, we will collect certain personal information from you. The information collected will vary but may include name, e-mail address, phone number, billing and delivery information, address, credit card information, and other demographic information.

How We Use Personal Information

Once collected, we may use your personal information for the following purposes:

  • schedule you for appointments and services you have requested;
  • process, fulfill, and follow up on your orders;
  • answer your e-mails and online requests;
  • ensure that our websites are relevant to your needs;
  • deliver informational services such as newsletters or alerts and reminders
  • recommend content that may be of interest to you;
  • alert you when fresh content is posted or released;
  • notify you about new services and products, special offers, upgrades, and other relevant information.

You can manage your account, limit alerts, or opt-out of some or all of our future communications. You can contact us by phone, mail, or email at any time to:

  • see what data we have about you, if any;
  • change/correct any data we have about you;
  • ask us to delete any data we have about you;
  • opt out of some or all future communications from us.

How to Opt Out of Email Newsletters

To opt out of our future email newsletters click the “unsubscribe” link at the bottom of any newsletter you received from River Dentistry. You also can call us at 213-486-0006 or email us to be removed from our mailing list.

Tracking Activity on Our Websites

We track how our websites are used by both anonymous visitors and registered users who interact with the site. One way we track is by using “cookies.” A cookie is a small file or string of text that is stored on your computer that is used to aid website functionality and analytics. Cookies are required for e-commerce sections of any website and are generally essential for site analytics, administration, and security.

Children Under 18

We do not knowingly solicit data online from or market online to children under the age of 18.

Sharing Information

River Dentistry may share some of your personal information with our business partners in order to provide you with products or services you requested. We may hire other companies to provide limited services on our behalf including, but not limited to, processing credit card transactions, packaging, mailing and delivering purchases, answering customer questions about products or services, consulting services, data modeling, printing, sending postal mail and event registration. We will only provide those companies the information they need to deliver the service. They are prohibited from using that information for any other purpose. Except as described in this section, third parties may not collect personally identifiable information about your online activities over time or across different websites.

River Dentistry may share your personal information with a third party only if:

  • reasonably necessary to perform a service or deliver products, publications, information, updates, and alerts;
  • authorized by you;
  • permitted under this Privacy Policy;
  • required by statue or regulation;
  • in good-faith belief that such action is necessary to: conform to legal requirements or comply with legal process, protect and defend rights or property, protect personal safety of our staff or members of the public in urgent circumstances, or enforce this Privacy Policy or Terms of Use.

Information Security

River Dentistry implements security measures to protect against unauthorized access to or unauthorized alteration, disclosure, or destruction of data. We restrict access to personal information to our employees and our business partners who may need to know that information in order to operate, develop or improve our services. These individuals and companies are bound by confidentiality obligations and may be subject to discipline, including termination, and criminal prosecution, if they fail to meet these obligations.

User ID and Password

Some areas of our websites may require creating and using a user ID and password as an additional security measure that helps protect your information. This allows us to verify who you are, thereby allowing you access to your account information and preventing unauthorized access. When you have finished using a secure area of any website, make sure you always click on the log out link. When you click on the log out link, you will end your secure session. No further secure transactions can be conducted without re-entering your user ID and password. You should be aware that browser software often “caches” a page as you look at it, meaning that some pages are saved in your computer’s temporary memory. Therefore, you may find that clicking on your web browser’s back button shows you a saved version of a previously viewed page. Caching in no way affects the security of your user ID or password.

No Guarantee

Unfortunately, no data storage or transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. Accordingly, and despite our efforts, River Dentistry cannot guarantee or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us, or to or from our online products or services. E-mail messages sent to us directly or from our website may not be secure. Confidential information should not be sent by e-mail. Site visitors sending e-mail accept the risk that a third party may intercept e-mail messages or data submitted via website forms.

Linking to/from Other Websites and Social Media

You should be aware that other websites and social media that link to River Dentistry sites or to our e-mail may contain privacy provisions that differ from these. To ensure your privacy is protected, we recommend that you review the privacy statements of other websites and social media sites you visit.
