Non-PII includes information that does not personally identify you. Non-PII includes, among other things, gender, information about your use of the Sites, such as your general location information, and other demographic data.

 

Personally Identifiable Information: As a general matter, you can browse the Site without submitting your PII to us. However, there are a number of circumstances in which you may supply us with your PII. The following lists the most common ways in which we may collect your PII:

Collection of Personally Identifiable Information From Social Media Sites: When you interact with any page on any of the Sites or any of our accounts on any social media platform, we may collect the PII that you make available to us on that page, including your account ID or username and other information included in your posts. If you choose to log in to your Account with or through a social networking service, Mariel Pastor LLC and that service may share certain information about you and your activities. With your permission, we also may share information about your activities (including what you view on the Sites) with that social network’s users.

 

Information You Give Us: We receive and store information you enter on the Site or give us in any other way, including your name, mailing address, phone number, email address, and payment information (if applicable).

 

Information We Automatically Collect: Additionally, as you browse the Site, we collect information about the individual web pages or products that you view, what websites or search terms referred you to the Sites, and information about how you interact with the Site. We refer to this automatically-collected information as “Device Information.” This information includes computer and connection information such as statistics on your page views, traffic to and from the Site, referral URL, your IP address, and device identifiers. This information also may include your browsing history, transaction history, and your web log information.

 

We collect Device Information using the following technologies:

 

“Cookies” are data files that are placed on your device or computer and often include an anonymous unique identifier. For more information about cookies, and how to disable cookies, visit http://www.allaboutcookies.org.

 

“Log files” track actions occurring on the Site, and collect data including your IP address, browser type, Internet service provider, referring/exit pages, and date/time stamps

 

“Web beacons,” “tags,” and “pixels” are electronic files used to record information about how you browse the Site.

 

Location Information: When you visit the Site, we may receive information about your location and your mobile device, including a unique identifier for your device. Location information allows us to provide location-based services, such as search results, and other personalized content. [We will only collect precise geo-location information with your consent; however, some services or features may not function properly without this information. See How to Limit the Use of Your Information for more information.]

 

Information From Other Sources: We may supplement the personal information we collect with information from third parties or from our offline interactions with you to, among other things, enable us to verify and/or update information contained in our records and to better customize the Sites for you.

HOW WE USE YOUR INFORMATION

We use your information that we collect generally to help us personalize and continually improve your experience on the Site, including fulfilling your requests for information, analyzing and compiling trends and statistics, and communicating with you. For information about how to manage your information and the choices you have, see How to Limit the Use of Your Information below.

 

The procedures utilized at IFS Telehealth Collective include prepaid scheduled sessions with a therapist via electronic media (e.g., video conferencing or telephone call) during which you and your therapist will communicate about your mental health status and progress toward the goals established for therapy. Because of legal and ethical requirements, your therapist cannot engage in activities or relationships with you that are not reasonably and necessarily related to therapy.

 

We use the Device Information that we collect to help us screen for potential risk and fraud (in particular, your IP address), and more generally to improve and optimize our Site (for example, by generating analytics about how our customers browse and interact with the Site, and to assess the success of our marketing and advertising campaigns).

 

We also may use your information to:

 

Remind you of an appointment;

 

Verify your identity;
