PRIVACY POLICY

View Related Links


The American Society of Health-System Pharmacists (“ASHP,” “we,” “us,” or “our”)
has created this Privacy Policy to demonstrate its firm commitment to privacy. 
This Privacy Policy will help you understand how your Personally Identifiable
Information (as that term is defined below) is collected on any website or
mobile application owned and operated by ASHP, including, but not limited to,
ashp.org, and how that information may be shared.  This Privacy Policy also
describes the choices available to you regarding ASHP’s use of your Personally
Identifiable Information and how you can access and update this information. 
The following discloses the information gathering and dissemination practices
for ASHP.

YOUR USE OF ANY ASHP WEBSITE OR ANY ASHP MOBILE APPLICATION CONSTITUTES YOUR
ACCEPTANCE OF THE TERMS OF THIS PRIVACY POLICY.  If you do not agree to the
terms of this Privacy Policy, you should not visit or use any ASHP website or
ASHP mobile application.

Introduction
In this Privacy Policy we use the term “Personally Identifiable Information” to
describe information that can be associated with an individual and can be used
to identify that individual.  We do not consider Personally Identifiable
Information to include information that has been anonymized or aggregated so
that it does not identify an individual.  You represent that if you give us
Personally Identifiable Information on behalf of someone else, the person
providing the Personally Identifiable Information to you gave you consent to
provide that person’s individual information to ASHP.  If someone else gives us
Personally Identifiable Information on your behalf, you represent that you gave
that person consent to provide your Personally Identifiable Information to ASHP.

This Privacy Policy applies when you:

 * Visit or utilize a website on which this Privacy Policy is posted;
 * Create an ASHP online user account (either through an ASHP website or through
   an ASHP mobile application);
 * Download any ASHP mobile application to your mobile device;
 * Otherwise interact with ASHP online, offline, or through any ASHP mobile
   application.

Notification of Changes to Privacy Policy
ASHP may update this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes to ASHP’s
privacy practices.  Users can find out about changes in this Privacy Policy by
visiting this page.  Your continued use of any ASHP website or any ASHP mobile
application (“ASHP Platforms”) constitutes acceptance of any such changes.  We
encourage you to periodically review this page for the latest information on
ASHP’s privacy practices.  This Privacy Policy was last revised in March of
2021.  We also encourage users to read this Privacy Policy thoroughly and use it
as a point of reference for the future.

Personally Identifiable Information
The website collects Personally Identifiable Information from various locations,
including at, but not limited to, the following locations:

 * Online ASHP Membership Form;
 * Change of Address Form for ASHP Members;
 * ASHP Virtual Mentoring Exchange;
 * ASHP Shopping Cart;
 * Professional Information Form; and
 * CE Testing Center.

The Personally Identifiable Information collected includes:

 * Name;
 * Title;
 * Year of birth;
 * Home address;
 * Business address;
 * Educational information
 * Practice demographics;
 * Email address; and
 * Billing information such as debit or credit card number, expiration date,
   security code (if applicable), and billing address.

When you use any ASHP Platform, we may automatically record information such as
browsing activity and data displayed or clicked on (such as UI elements, ads,
and links), and we may collect other information, including, but not limited to,
the type of device you use, browser type, operating system version, IP address,
data and time of access, and device identifier.

ASHP uses Personally Identifiable Information to send orders, email news
services, newsletters, its journal (AJHP), Products Catalog, and event
announcements.  The non-financial information we collect is sometimes shared
with other organizations to help them contact consumers for marketing purposes.
ASHP is committed to keeping users’ e-mail addresses confidential. ASHP does not
sell, rent, or lease users’ email addresses to third parties. Users may choose
to decline receiving future mailings by following the instructions in the
“Opting Out” section below.  Aggregated demographic information may also be
compiled and shared, but will not identify the individual user.

Location Information
We may collect information about the location of your device, including GPS
location, for purposes of enhancing or facilitating our services.  We may also
use information about the location of the device you are using to help us
understand how our websites, mobile applications, and other services and
functionality are being used and to deliver more relevant marketing.  You may be
able to adjust the settings of your device so that information about your
physical location is not sent to us or third parties by (a) disabling location
services within the device settings; or (b) denying certain websites or mobile
applications permission to access location information by changing the relevant
preferences and permissions in your mobile device or browser settings.  Please
note that your location may be derived from your WiFi, Bluetooth, and other
device settings.  See your device settings for more information.

Cookies
ASHP and our service providers and advertising partners use cookies and tracking
technologies on ASHP Platforms.  Cookies are small data files that are sent from
a website’s server and are stored on your device’s hard drive to enable us to
recognize repeat visitors, facilitate your use of the site, and to track access
to and use of ASHP Platforms.  ASHP Platforms use both “session cookies” and
“persistent cookies”.  A session cookie disappears after you close your browser.
 A persistent cookie remains on your device’s hard drive after you close your
browser and may be used by your browser on subsequent visits to ASHP Platforms.

You can set your browser to notify you when you receive a cookie, giving you the
chance to decide whether or not to accept it.  You may also change your cookie
settings through preferences options in our products and/or services, where
applicable.  If you elect to browse the website with the cookies option turned
off, you may not be able to access restricted content and the shopping cart may
not perform correctly.  For more details on the use of cookies in ASHP
Platforms, please visit the Policy on Cookies.

Web Beacons
Our web pages contain electronic images known as web beacons (sometimes called
single-pixel gifs), which are used along with cookies to compile aggregated
statistics to analyze how our website is used and may be used in some of our
emails to let us know which emails and links have been opened by recipients. 
This allows us to gauge the effectiveness of our customer communications and
marketing campaigns.

Log Files
We may collect information to analyze traffic on ASHP Platforms.  Such
information includes, but is not limited to, browser type, IP address, access
time, and files accessed are collected in log files.  Aggregate information
generated from the log files is sometimes shared with advertisers.

Links
ASHP Platforms may contain links to other third party websites. ASHP is not
responsible for the privacy practices or the content of other websites.  If you
submit Personally Identifiable Information to those websites, your information
is governed by those websites’ privacy statements.  Please carefully read the
privacy statements of the websites to which we link, as their privacy practices
may differ from those of ASHP’s websites.

Survey Information
Personally Identifiable Information is optional in our online surveys and would
be used only to contact a user for clarification purposes.  Demographic and
profile data that are collected may be analyzed and shared with advertisers on
an aggregate basis.

Email
Throughout ASHP Platforms, users are provided the opportunity to communicate
with ASHP via email.  We read every message and try to reply promptly to
everyone.  This information is used to reply directly to your questions or
comments.  Email addresses will be included in member-protected online
networking directories.  If you do not want your email address displayed in the
online networking directory, see the “Opting Out” section below.

Opting Out
Our ASHP Platforms provide users the opportunity to opt out of receiving certain
communications from ASHP and any third parties at the point where the
information is submitted.  Please note that the current ASHP Product Catalog
does not provide the user with the opportunity to opt out of mailing lists at
this time.

Choosing to opt out of emails currently means you will NOT receive ANY email
from ASHP (including Newslink).  Likewise, opting out of emails and mailings
means you will receive no announcements about upcoming meetings or product
announcements and promotions.

Users who do not want to receive mailings or emails from ASHP can also contact
ASHP by the following means and request to be excluded:

The GDPR is a European regulation concerning the use and processing of personal
information. We are committed to processing the information of European Union
(EU) visitors to our sites in compliance with the GDPR.

The applicable legal basis for which we process your information includes the
following:

 * We have a legitimate interest in communicating with you and managing our
   interactions with your regarding our products and services.
 * In specific circumstances, we may need to process your information to comply
   with an applicable law or regulation. Where we process your information to
   meet our legal obligations, you will likely not be permitted to object to
   this processing activity, but you will usually have the right to access or
   review this information unless it would impede our legal obligations.

We will use reasonable efforts to timely respond to any requests by you to
exercise your rights under the GDPR:

 * You have the right to see and get a copy of information, including an
   electronic copy, that we have about you; 
 * You have the right to ask us to make any corrections to inaccurate or
   incomplete personal data we have about you;
 * You can also request that we erase your personal data when it is no longer
   needed for the purposes for which you provided it; 
 * You may ask us to restrict how we process your personal data to certain
   limited purposes where erasure is not possible; 
 * In certain circumstances you may be able to request that we send a copy of
   your personal data to a third party of your choosing;
 * You can object to processing of your personal information based on the ASHP’s
   legitimate interest (or those of a third party) to use this information 

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at:

where you believe that your rights have been violated. You may consult a list of
data protection authorities.

We hold your information and use it as described in this Privacy Policy and will
use reasonable measures to ensure that your personal information is only
transferred to third parties who also maintain at least the standard of
protection required under the GDPR.

ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS REGARDING ASHP PLATFORMS AND YOUR INFORMATION

Transfer and Storage of Your Information

ASHP Platforms are owned and operated in the United States. Your use of any ASHP
Platforms will result in the collection, storage, and processing of your
information in the United States and in any country to which we may transfer
your information in the course of our business operations.  If you are visiting
this site from a country other than the United States, your information will
cross an international boundary.  The level of protection for your information
in the United States may not be the same as the level of protection in your
country. 

Security
Maintaining the integrity of data collected on ASHP’s websites is of utmost
importance to ASHP.  Credit card information is transmitted in encrypted form. 
Personally Identifiable Information is stored behind password protection.  ASHP
has a prudent password rotation policy that is clearly communicated to all
staff.  Routine backups are made and stored securely.
We follow generally accepted best practices to reasonably protect the
information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. 
No method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is
100% secure, however.  Therefore, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
We will retain your information for as long as your online user account is
active or as needed to provide you services.  If you wish to cancel your online
user account or request that we no longer use your information to provide you
services contact us as set forth in the “Questions” section, below.  We will
retain and use your information as necessary to comply with our legal
obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.

Children’s Online Privacy
ASHP Platforms are not intended to be used by anyone under the age of 13 and, as
such, ASHP does not knowingly collect Personally Identifiable Information from
anyone under the age of 13.  If you are under the age of 13, please do not
submit any Personally Identifiable Information to ASHP or create an online user
account.  If a parent or legal guardian becomes aware that his or her child
under the age of 13 has provided us with Personally Identifiable Information
without parental or legal guardian consent, the parent or legal guardian should
contact us and we will delete such information from our files.

Questions
If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy, ASHP’s privacy practices,
or your use of any ASHP Platform, please contact us.


POLICY ON COOKIES

The American Society of Health-System Pharmacists (“ASHP,” “we,” “us,” or “our”)
and our service providers and advertising partners use cookies and tracking
technologies on ASHP’s websites and mobile applications (“ASHP Platforms”).
 Cookies are small data files that are sent from a website’s server and are
stored on a visitor’s device’s hard drive to enable us to recognize repeat
visitors, facilitate your use of the site, and to track access to and use of
ASHP Platforms. ASHP Platforms use both “session cookies” and “persistent
cookies”.  A session cookie disappears after you close your browser.  A
persistent cookie remains on your device’s hard drive after you close your
browser and may be used by your browser on subsequent visits to ASHP Platforms.

We collect cookies on ASHP Platforms:

 * for sign-in authentication;
 * to capture and collect demographic data that helps us track which other
   websites have linked visitors to our site;
 * to advertise what pages of our site are used by and are of interest to those
   visitors;
 * to link to information those visitors provide to ASHP when they join, make a
   purchase, register for meeting or make a donation; and
 * to improve the functionality of ASHP Platforms and the experience for those
   who use our site.

We receive data that includes visitors’ IP addresses, browser types, date/time
stamps, donations, and names and sign-up information. This information is
anonymous and is used by ASHP for internal purposes only - to deliver the most
effective content to our visitors. ASHP does not require that you accept
cookies; however, some functionality on ASHP Platforms, including our product or
service check-out process may be disabled if you decline to accept cookies.  You
can set your browser to notify you when you receive a cookie, giving you the
chance to decide whether or not to accept it.  You also may change your cookie
settings through preferences options in our products and/or services, where
applicable.  If you choose to e-mail us and provide personally identifiable
information about yourself, we will use this information only to respond to your
inquiry. We will not sell, rent or otherwise disclose that information to third
parties unless such disclosure is necessary for the purposes set forth in this
policy, by law or a policy or notice contained or associated with a specific
ASHP product or service.

Analytics
Similar to many operators of websites, ASHP works with third-party service
providers to enhance and improve ASHP Platforms, products, and services.  These
providers supply tools for traffic monitoring, interest-based advertising,
surveys, social media advertising, and email marketing.  For example, ASHP uses
Google Analytics and the DoubleClick cookies for this purpose.  ASHP monitors
site traffic and technical performance for research and development of new
products and services, and to administer ASHP Platforms, improve our visitors’
experiences, evaluate site usage, provide site security, and provide localized
content based on geographic location. We collect device identifiers, such as IP
address, for this purpose.  ASHP Platform visitors may opt out of the
DoubleClick cookie by visiting the Google advertising opt-out page or they may
opt out of Google Analytics by visiting the Google Analytics opt-out page.
 Google has additional information available about its Remarketing Privacy
Guidelines, Policies, and Restrictions.  ASHP Platforms containing other
programs run by us or other third parties may contain information as to how
cookies are used on those sites.

Most web browsers provide controls that allow you to block or delete cookies.
 You can prevent the setting of such cookies by changing your settings within
your browser.  Furthermore you can adjust your browser so that the browser asks
you for permission before each cookie is dropped on your device.  Also you can
delete all your cookies on your device within your browser.  You can find more
information about cookies, browser settings and cookie deletion on
http://www.allaboutcookies.org/.  Generally, you can also go to the Help section
on your internet browser and see instructions for blocking or deleting cookies.

Please note that certain features that we use on our ASHP Platforms depend on
cookies.  If you choose to block cookies, you may not be able to sign in or use
those features, and preferences that are dependent on cookies may be lost.

Responding to Do Not Track Signals
Some browsers provide the ability to send a Do Not Track signal to websites.
 ASHP Platforms do not respond to these signals or similar mechanisms.

Interest Based Advertising
ASHP does not collect tracking information but uses third parties that belong to
recognized industry digital advertising initiatives to track and/or deliver ads.
 These industry associations allow consumers to better control interest based
ads.  We have listed some of these associations below and provided links to
their respective sites.  ASHP and its service providers place web beacons,
cookies, and other tracking technologies on our and other sites to track users
by device identification.  Ads are then presented to visitors based on their
online behaviors and their actual or presumed commercial interests as indicated
by those online behaviors.  The service providers that ASHP works with do not
collect or access information that directly identifies you (such as your name or
email address).

We also use email to send you marketing messages.  ASHP uses web beacons to
collect data about what content you viewed in an email.  If you would like to
opt-out of our marketing emails, you can do so by visiting the website(s) you
registered on and updating your email preferences, clicking on the link provided
in each marketing email we send, if applicable, or contacting us directly at:

Email: custserv@ashp.org

Postal mail:
American Society of Health-System Pharmacists
4500 East-West Highway, Suite 900
Bethesda, Maryland 20814
Telephone: (301) 657-3000

Please also note that ASHP or its advertising providers may use web beacons on
its or third party websites to allow us to count users who have visited certain
web pages and to generate statistics about how ASHP Platforms are used.  Web
beacons, unlike cookies, cannot be declined.  However, setting your browser to
decline cookies or prompt you for a response will keep most web beacons from
tracking your activity.

Sharing Information with Advertising Providers
In certain countries, we work with advertising providers, such as Facebook,
Twitter, LinkedIn and others, and receive audience based data (such as pixel
traffic and conversion data) from them based on non-identifiable information
such as IP addresses.  These providers may collect additional information from
you, such as your IP address and information about your browser or operating
system, may combine information about you with information from other companies
and may place or recognize their own unique cookie on your browser.  These
cookies may contain demographic or other data in de-identified form.  Cookies
used by third party advertising technology providers and how these companies use
the information gathered from the cookies will be governed by the respective
company’s privacy policy.  To block or limit this activity, see the information
below and the ASHP Privacy Policy.

Advertising Choices
You may opt out of receiving interest based advertising by visiting the
following sites:

 * Digital Advertising Alliance (US) Consumer choice page
 * European Digital Advertising Alliance
 * Twitter
 * Facebook You should see a link to the opt-out when you select “Why am I
   seeing this?” when using Facebook. You can also select “Hide all from this
   advertiser” within Facebook to stop seeing our ads. More information can be
   found on Facebook's.
 * LinkedIn

As some of the tracking data for interest based advertising is also used for
other necessary purposes (such as analytics and fraud detection), opting out of
interest based advertising does NOT stop that data from being collected.  You
also will continue to receive non-interest based advertisements and may not
necessarily see fewer ads.
