Effective July 2, 2020

This Privacy Policy describes the practices of the KPN OneSource, Inc. and its subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively, “KPN”) regarding past and ongoing collection and use of information from visitors to our websites and users of our other Internet services. By visiting a KPN website, including but not limited to www.kpnadvisors.com, you are accepting the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

1. Information We Collect and How We Use It

KPN collects information from several sources. Our web server automatically collects the domain name and Internet Protocol (“IP”) address for each visitor to our websites. We collect information about the usage of our websites. In addition, we may request or require you to provide personally identifiable information and/or create an account in order to access certain services or engage in certain activities on a website. The information collected depends on how you choose to use our services and our websites, as detailed below.

a. Commonly Accepted Practices

Information collected may be used for commonly accepted practices, including:

1. Product service fulfillment;
2. Sending electronic publications to online subscribers;
3. Administration of our websites and monitoring usage of our websites;
4. Internal operations, such as the use of identity-verification technologies, and the review of server logs;
5. Legal compliance and public purposes, such as subpoena compliance and credit reporting;
6. Registration for and participation in KPN software, services, and communities; and
7. Marketing of products and services to you by KPN, such as the recommendation of products or the delivery of promotional material based upon prior purchases.

b. Information Collected to Create an Account

From time to time, KPN may request or require that you create an account with us to obtain certain services. In such cases, we may collect username or ID and password information from you. We use this information to verify users’ identities to prevent unauthorized access to users’ personal information. KPN allows account holders to elect to have the website remember their login information between visits so they do not have to log in each time. This is done by checking a box labeled “remember me” on the login page. This feature requires the placement of a small text file called a “cookie” (see next section) on the user’s hard drive. The cookie tells the site that the user has logged in before. As part of registering for some of KPN’s products and affiliates, we may collect contact and demographic information such as your name, address, email address, etc. We may also collect information regarding your personal and professional history, interests, activities, experiences, and interests in health care products and services. Certain information may be required to complete the registration process.

c. Cookies

Several portions of the KPN websites use cookies. Cookies are small data files that are transferred to your computer through your web browser. Cookies are used by most websites. We may use cookies, clear gifs, and log file information to: (i) store information so that you will not have to re-enter it during subsequent visits; (ii) provide personalized content on knpadvisors.com and to provide targeted advertising on other sites; (iii) monitor effectiveness of marketing campaigns; (iv) record site analytics such as total number of visitors, pages viewed, etc.; and (v) track your entries, submissions, and communications. Certain features of our website require cookies to function properly.

Most browsers are initially set up to accept cookies, but you can reset your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. Some KPN website features and services may not function properly if you set your browser to refuse cookies.

d. Email Addresses and Mailing Lists

KPN collects and uses its audience’s email addresses and/or mailing addresses when/if provided for purposes of providing services or responses to the audience. In addition, KPN collects email and mailing addresses in connection with registration for and attendance at conferences, webinars and other events, subscriptions for publications, the purchase of products and services, and in other circumstances. We may use your e-mail address or other personally identifiable information to send commercial or marketing messages to you regarding KPN’s products or services. You may opt-out of any or all of such disclosures as provided below.

e. Information from Other Sources

The information we collect is gathered from several sources. Such sources may include, but are not limited to: audience enrollment; registration for conferences, webinars, distance learning, and other events; website visits; newsletter subscriptions; and product sales. We may combine the information you submit when using one of our services with information (i) collected from your use of other KPN services; (ii) collected by KPN-affiliated organizations; or (iii) obtained from third parties. The combined information may be used in a manner similar to any other information we collect.

2. Third Party Advertisers and Links

This Privacy Policy applies to KPN websites only. We may allow third-party ad servers or ad networks to serve advertisements within KPN’s websites. These third-party ad servers or ad networks use technology to send directly to your browser the advertisements and links that appear on the website. They automatically receive your IP address when this happens. They may use other technologies such as cookies, scripting language, or clear gifs to measure the effectiveness of their advertisements and to personalize the advertising content you see.

These third parties may view, edit, or set their own cookies. They may also collect both non-personal and personal information concerning your online activities over time and across different websites. The information they may collect includes the other sites you have visited or applications that you have downloaded to your mobile device, and other information about you or your device in order to help analyze and serve targeted advertising on the web site and elsewhere. For more information about third-party ad servers and your ability to opt-out of targeted advertising from such third parties, please visit the Network Advertising Initiative and/or the Digital Advertising Alliance Self-Regulatory Program for Online Behavioral Advertising.

We have not implemented a response to browser-based Do Not Track signals. Because of the current lack of consensus with respect to the Do Not Track standard from both a compliance perspective and a technical perspective, we have not yet determined how or if we would implement a response to Do Not Track signals. We will continue to evaluate this in the event a uniform standard is adopted.

KPN does not provide any personally identifiable information to these third-party ad servers or ad networks without your consent or except as part of a specific program or feature for which you will have the ability to opt-in or opt-out.

KPN’s websites and publications contain many links to other websites. In addition, KPN and its affiliates may maintain a presence on third-party sites such as Facebook^® or Linked-In^®. These other websites may send their own cookies to users, collect data, or solicit personal information. KPN is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of these other websites. Please check with the other sites to review their privacy policies and how they may collect or use information.

KPN websites may contain functionality which enables you to import profile information or contacts from third party services (e.g., LinkedIn^®, Facebook^®, Twitter^®, Gmail^®, etc.) (collectively, “Third Party Social Media Accounts”). If you choose to do this, you may have to log into the applicable third-party account, using such account’s username and password. The copy of the information received by us shall be subject to this Privacy Policy. However, any data maintained by Third Party Social Media Accounts and by such third-party service and your use of that third-party service will be subject to that third party’s terms of use and privacy policy.

4. Information Sharing

In addition to the information sharing described elsewhere in this Privacy Policy, KPN shares personal information with KPN-affiliated organizations and other trusted businesses or persons to perform functions on our behalf. These third parties have access to personal information needed to perform their functions but may not use it for other purposes.

In the unlikely event that KPN or one of its affiliated organizations is acquired, or substantially all of the assets of KPN or one of its affiliated organizations are acquired, by a third party either in a sale, bankruptcy court proceeding, or otherwise, it is possible that personal information of website users and customers would be one of the assets transferred. In such an event, KPN would take reasonable steps to require the third party to maintain our privacy policies and practices.

In addition, KPN may disclose personally identifiable information to third parties, but only:

1. to contractors we use to support our business, provided they use the personally identifiable information only for KPN purposes;
2. to respond to law enforcement requests, where required by applicable laws, court orders, warrants, subpoenas (whether civil or criminal), or governmental regulations;
3. in situations involving threats to the physical safety of any person;
4. in connection with joint ventures with third parties; or
5. as necessary to enforce our rights in connection with the web site.

5. Information Security

Please understand that no one can give an absolute assurance that information intended to be maintained as private, whether transmitted via the Internet or otherwise, cannot be accessed inappropriately or unlawfully by third parties. It is important for you to protect against unauthorized access to your password and to your computer. Be sure to sign off when finished using a computer. We have taken and will continue to take reasonable steps to ensure the secure and safe transmission of your personal information.

6. Children’s Privacy

The KPN website is not intended for children under eighteen (18) years of age. KPN does not knowingly solicit or collect personal information from or about any such children, and KPN does not knowingly market its products or services to any such children. If KPN becomes aware that it has inadvertently received personal information from a user under the age of eighteen (18), it will delete such personal information from its records.

7. Changes to Our Privacy Policy

KPN MAY MODIFY THIS PRIVACY POLICY AT ANY TIME, AND ANY CHANGE WILL BE EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY UPON POSTING OF THE MODIFIED PRIVACY POLICY. YOU AGREE TO REVIEW THE PRIVACY POLICY PERIODICALLY TO BE AWARE OF SUCH MODIFICATIONS AND YOUR CONTINUED ACCESS OR USE OF THE SITE SHALL BE DEEMED YOUR CONCLUSIVE ACCEPTANCE OF THE PRIVACY POLICY, AS MODIFIED.

IF FOR ANY REASON KPN WOULD LIKE TO USE THE INFORMATION YOU HAVE SUBMITTED FOR SUBSTANTIALLY DIFFERENT PURPOSES OTHER THAN THOSE OUTLINED AT THE TIME YOU ORIGINALLY SUBMITTED YOUR INFORMATION, KPN WILL AFFIRMATIVELY REQUEST PERMISSION FROM YOU TO USE SUCH DATA FOR THOSE SUBSTANTIALLY DIFFERENT PURPOSES PRIOR TO USING THE DATA.

We will keep prior versions of the Privacy Policy in an archive for your review.

8. Accessing and Updating Personal Information

You may request access to your personal information, corrections, and/or deletions of the same by using the Contact Information set forth below. We will use reasonable good faith efforts to promptly address your concerns, subject to legal retention obligations and legitimate business needs.

When making a request, individual users are asked to identify themselves and the information requested to be accessed, corrected, or removed. We may decline to process requests that are unreasonably repetitive or systematic, require disproportionate technical effort, jeopardize the privacy of others, would be extremely impractical, or for which access is not otherwise required. Correcting or removing data is done free of charge to the user unless doing so requires a disproportionate effort. After deleting your information from active servers, copies may remain in our backup system.

If you prefer that we not disclose your personally identifiable information to nonaffiliated third parties, you may request that we not do so (except as required by law) by contacting us as described above. If you opt out of certain disclosures, we may not be able to offer you certain services and products. Please note that personally identifiable information does not include publicly available information that is lawfully made available to the general public from federal, state, or local government records, widely distributed media, or disclosures to the general public required by law.
