Eminat Medical Center (“EMC,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy and is committed to protecting the personal information you provide when visiting our website, communicating with us, requesting information, subscribing to communications, or using our online services.
This Privacy Policy explains what information we may collect through emc.health, how we use it, when it may be shared, and the choices available to you.
This Privacy Policy applies to information collected through our website and related digital communications. It does not replace Eminat Medical Center’s Notice of Privacy Practices, which governs the use and disclosure of Protected Health Information (“PHI”) under HIPAA when applicable.

2. Medical Information and HIPAA
Information created, received, maintained, or transmitted by Eminat Medical Center in connection with providing healthcare services may constitute Protected Health Information under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (“HIPAA”).
When HIPAA applies, the use and disclosure of that information is governed by our HIPAA policies and our Notice of Privacy Practices, rather than solely by this Website Privacy Policy.
This Privacy Policy should therefore be read separately from any HIPAA Notice of Privacy Practices provided to our patients.
3. How We Use Personal Information
We may use information collected through our website and digital communications to:
-
Respond to questions and inquiries

Communicate with prospective or existing patients

4. Newsletters and Email Communications
Eminat Medical Center may send newsletters, educational information, organizational updates, community announcements, service information, and other email communications to individuals who have agreed to receive them.
Our newsletters may contain information from:
Eminat Medical Center
and
Eminat Research Group
A newsletter may therefore include general health education, information about Eminat Medical Center, clinical research education, organizational news, community information, and information regarding opportunities or activities associated with Eminat Research Group.
Receiving these newsletters is optional.
Information Used for Newsletter Distribution
For newsletter distribution, we intend to use only the information reasonably necessary to manage the communication, primarily:
-
Name
-
Dirección de correo electrónico
We do not intend to upload medical records, diagnoses, medications, laboratory results, treatment information, physician notes, or other clinical information to our newsletter distribution platform.
Email Service Providers
Eminat Medical Center may use third-party email service providers, including Constant Contact, to manage subscriber lists and distribute newsletters.
These providers may process information necessary to provide the service, including name, email address, subscription status, email delivery status, and interaction information such as opens or clicks.
Where required, Eminat Medical Center will use appropriate contractual, privacy, and security safeguards with service providers.
5. Consent to Receive Newsletters
Individuals may be asked to provide consent before being added to newsletter mailing lists.
For joint communications, our consent language may state:
I agree to receive newsletters, health information, organizational updates, and other communications from Eminat Medical Center and Eminat Research Group. I understand that I may unsubscribe at any time.
Newsletter consent is voluntary.
Declining to receive newsletters will not affect a person’s ability to receive medical care from Eminat Medical Center.
6. Unsubscribing From Email Communications
Every newsletter or promotional email sent through our email marketing platform will include an Unsubscribe option.
Recipients may unsubscribe at any time.
Once an unsubscribe request is processed, the email address will no longer be used for the applicable newsletter or marketing communications, except where retention of limited information is necessary to maintain the unsubscribe request or comply with applicable law.
Unsubscribing from a newsletter does not prevent Eminat Medical Center from sending communications necessary for treatment, appointments, billing, patient safety, legal requirements, or other permitted healthcare or operational purposes.

We may also disclose information when required to comply with applicable laws, regulations, court orders, subpoenas, governmental requests, or other lawful processes.
8. Sale of Personal Information
Eminat Medical Center does not sell medical records or Protected Health Information to advertisers or third parties for their independent marketing purposes.
We do not use patient medical information as a commercial mailing list.
