WIN’s Programs
WIN and its family of companies provide management services related to women’s health issues, with an emphasis on managing medical and pharmacy care for infertility and related conditions. WIN does not provide medical services or dispense pharmaceuticals care and does not offer health care insurance. Information on this website may relate to all aspects of the management services WIN does provide, including (but not limited to) the WINFertility Treatment Program and WINFertilityRx Medication BundlesSM that are specifically designed to make infertility treatments available directly to consumers who do not have, or who have exhausted, available insurance covering medical or pharmaceutical infertility services. While this website is intended to facilitate consumers’ access to the WINFertility Programs, use of this website or any of WIN’s Programs does not in any way guarantee that infertility treatments will be successful in enabling patients to reach their personal family goals.

In connection with participation in WIN’s program that manages health care conditions, WIN may gather specific information about a patient’s personal health conditions. Any such information should be transmitted only through secure means, including electronic transmissions that are encrypted in accordance with applicable law.

Like many Websites, we collect generic information from visitors to our site about how they use our site, information they would like us to provide and features that would interest them. For example, we may track the time and duration of visits to our site and the sequence of or particular pages viewed. Nevertheless, because we respect your privacy, we do not attach any personal identifiers to this information. This information enables us to serve you and other visitors better by indicating pages and features that are visited most often and are of the greatest interest.
From time to time, we may share aggregated and anonymous reports with our partners and sponsors or with other third parties in an effort to provide better content and greater usability for our Website or to bring our visitors information that may be of value to them. No reports of any kind ever divulge the identity of any individual WIN visitor or member to any parties (other than WIN strategic business partners or the credentialed fertility practices included in WIN’s Network, and then only if such partners have agreed to comply with the terms of this privacy policy through our Business Associates Agreement). Neither WIN nor its strategic business partners will give, sell, rent or loan any identifiable person information to any third party, unless legally required to do so.
Your IP address is a series of numbers used to identify and differentiate your computer from among all the computers using the Internet. We use your IP address to help diagnose problems with our server, and to administer the Website. Your IP address is used to help identify you and to gather broad demographic information that is anonymous in nature and is not associated with particular individuals.
WIN may link to other sites in order to provide you with additional useful information and services.

WIN is not responsible for the privacy policies or actions of those controlling third-party sites. Therefore, you are encouraged to look for and review the privacy policies of any third-party site you visit.

You hereby grant to WIN a perpetual, non-exclusive, world-wide, sub-licensable, royalty-free and fully paid license to (i) use, and to make, offer for sale, sell, import and use products and services covered by, such intellectual property rights, and (ii) use (subject to the provisions of WIN’s privacy policy for this Website) any personal data you provide to WIN, for any lawful purpose. If any information you provide to WIN is subject to a pre-existing copyright, patent or other similar protection of rights, it is your obligation to notify WIN thereof in writing at the time that the information is provided to WIN.

Security and Identity
The Website has security measures in place that WIN believes are reasonable to protect against the loss, misuse and alteration of the information under our control. However, all security measures are subject to possible circumvention, and we cannot and do not provide any guarantees regarding the effectiveness of the security we employ or our ability to prevent third parties, acting unlawfully, from obtaining information that you provide to us.

We may use various third-party advertising companies to display ads or otherwise promote their products when you visit the Website. These companies may use anonymous information (not including your name, address, email address or telephone number) about your visits to the Website (and web sites operated by others) in order to provide advertisements on the Website about goods and services that may be of interest to you.
Remarketing
WINFertility.com websites use the Google AdWords remarketing service to advertise on third party websites (including Google) to previous visitors to our site. It could mean that we advertise to previous visitors, even those who have not completed any task on our site, such as using the contact form to make an inquiry. This could be in the form of an advertisement on the Google search results page, or a site in the Google Display Network. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on someone’s past visits to the WINFertility’s website. Any data collected will be used in accordance with our own privacy policy and Google’s privacy policy.
Cookies
We may place or recognize a unique “cookie” on your Internet browser. Cookies are small files placed on the hard drives of visitors to the Website. The cookies reflect identifying information about each user and retain certain non-identifying information about the user’s use of the Website. These cookies are accessible to WIN and its third party advertisers as users browse the Website. Most Internet browsers are initially set to accept cookies. Users are always free to set their Internet browsers to decline cookies, if their browser permits; however, it is possible that some parts of the Website, such as the areas where access is limited to registered users, will not function properly if the user’s cookies are disabled. You may occasionally receive cookies from our advertisers or business partners who offer services through, or advertise on, the Website. We do not control these cookies, and these cookies are not subject to our privacy policies.
Archiving and Preservation of Information
We archive all information, including personal information, you provide in the course of using this Website. We store that information on servers that are controlled by us or by third parties who have agreed to comply with our commitments made under this Privacy Policy and with whom we have a contractual relationship. Archived information will not ordinarily be erased unless and until your entire account with this website is deleted; even then, we may retain some or all of your information on back-up files.
Your Rights Regarding Your Personal Information
You have the right to review, correct and remove your personal data we store about you on our servers. However, certain personal information may not be changed without authentication (e.g., birth date) and you may be asked to provide additional information to allow us to confirm your identity in order to change those. If you ask us to remove your personal information, we still reserve the right to retain as much of your personal information and for so long as necessary to comply with our legal, regulatory, internal audit and record-keeping requirements.
We take appropriate security measures to safeguard your personal information from unauthorized access and disclosure. However, no system can be completely secure. Therefore, although we take steps to secure your information, we do not promise, and you should not expect, that your personal information, searches, or other communications will always remain secure. Users should also take care with how they handle and disclose their personal information and should avoid sending personal information through insecure email. Please refer to the Federal Trade Commission’s website at http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/menus/consumer/data.shtm for information about how to protect yourself against identity theft.
