Device and usage data

We use common information-gathering tools, such as log files, cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies to automatically collect information, which may contain personal information, from your computer or mobile device as you navigate our Websites and Contents or interact with emails we have sent to you.

As is true of most websites, we gather certain information automatically via log files. This collected information may include your Internet Protocol (IP) address (or proxy server), device and application identification numbers, your location, your browser type, your Internet service provider and/or mobile carrier, the pages and files you viewed, your searches, your operating system and system configuration information, and date/time stamps associated with your usage.

This information is used to comply with data contracts, treaties, national laws, and regulations, analyze overall trends to help us provide and improve our Websites and Contents, and to guarantee their security and continued proper functioning. We also collect IP addresses from users when they log into the services as part of the Semi-Retired MD’s security features.

We use cookies and similar technologies such as web beacons, tags, and Javascript alone or in conjunction with cookies to compile information about usage of our Websites and Contents and interaction with emails from us.

When you visit our Websites, our servers or an authorized third party may place a cookie on your browser, which can collect information, including personal information, about your online activities over time and across different sites. Cookies help us ensure our Websites are not misused by bots and prevent account login information sharing.

We use both session-based and persistent cookies. Session cookies exist only during one session and disappear from your computer or device when you close your browser software or turn off your computer. Persistent cookies remain on your computer or device after you close your browser or turn off your computer or device. Most web and mobile device browsers automatically accept cookies but, if you prefer, you can change your browser to prevent that or to notify you each time a cookie is set by using the opt-out tool at www.optout.networkadvertising.org. You can also learn more about cookies by visiting www.allaboutcookies.org which includes additional useful information on cookies and how to block cookies using different types of browser or mobile device. Please note, however, that by blocking or deleting cookies used on Semi-Retired MD’s Websites and Contents, you may not be able to take full advantage of the Websites and Contents.

We partner with a third-party ad network to either display advertising on our Websites or to manage our advertising on other sites. Our ad network partner uses cookies and Web beacons to collect non-personal information about your activities on this and other websites to provide you targeted advertising based upon your interests, which is called online behavioural advertising. If you wish to not have this information used for the purpose of serving you targeted ads, you may opt-out by using the specific opt-out mechanism at www.optout.networkadvertising.org. Please note this does not opt you out of being served advertising. You will continue to receive generic ads.

In addition to using third parties to assist us in serving advertisements, we also use third parties, such as Google and Meta, to track aggregated and/or anonymized site usage statistics, distinguish users, manage subscriptions to our mailing list, manage browsing device information and know what pages, contents and activities users have done for site analytics and performance measurement. Please note that we do not control these third-party technologies, and their use is governed by their respective privacy policies and cookie policies. For your convenience, Google and Meta’s current cookie policies are available here and here, respectively. We strongly encourage you to familiarize yourself with such policies prior to and when using the Websites.

Social Media Features

Third parties with whom we work may also provide us with information about you. We may combine the information you have given to us with additional information made available by external sources. For example, depending on your settings or the privacy policies for social media and messaging services like Facebook or Instagram, you may give us permission to access information from those accounts or services. Please verify the privacy policies of these third parties before submitting your personal information to them.

Conversely, we may use social media features, such as the Facebook and Instagram “like” buttons and other sharing widgets (“Social Media Features”). You may be given the option by such Social Media Features to post information about your activities on a website to a profile page of yours that is provided by a third-party social media network in order to share with others in your network. Social Media Features are either hosted by the respective social media network or hosted directly on our Websites. To the extent the Social Media Features are hosted by the respective social media networks, the latter may receive information that you have visited our Websites from your IP address. If you are logged into your social media account, it is possible that the respective social media network can link your visit of our website with your social media profile. Your interactions with Social Media Features are governed by the privacy policies of the companies providing the relevant Social Media Features.

We reserve the right to disclose your personal information as required by law, and as necessary to protect the property, interests and rights of Semi-Retired MD.

In individual cases, we may also share personal information with professional advisers acting as processors or joint controllers including lawyers, bankers, auditors, and insurers based in countries in which we operate, who provide consultancy, banking, legal, insurance, and accounting services.

Any personal information or other information you choose to submit in communities, forums, blogs, or chat rooms on our Websites may be read, collected, and/or used by others who visit these forums, depending on your account settings. You agree to hold us harmless for any disclosures of personal information submitted by you.

The Semi-Retired MD Websites and Contents may contain links to websites operated by third parties. These websites may collect your personal information. These Terms of Use do not apply to the practices of third parties and we do not assume any responsibility for, and by using our Websites and Contents and/or accessing a third party’s website from our Websites and Contents, you release us of any responsibility for, the actions, practices and omissions of third parties.

Please contact support@semiretiredmd.com if you do not wish to provide us such information, or object to its processing by us.

Retention Of Personal Information

We will keep your personal information only as long as is reasonably necessary for the time consistent with the original purpose of collection or such longer period as may be required by applicable law. We determine the appropriate retention period for personal information on the basis of the amount, nature, and sensitivity of your personal information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure, and whether we can achieve the purposes of the processing through other means.

Your Access To And Control Over Your Personal Information

You may exercise any of the rights described below by sending an email to support@semiretiredmd.com

or by using the contact information indicated in this section. Please note that we may ask you to verify your identity before taking further action on your request. The verification methods we use may include requests to disclose your first name, last name, email address, location information, security question, account activity and other information. We will process your request within 30 days of receipt.

a) Managing your information

You may access and update some of your information by accessing your account with Semi-Retired MD or any of its affiliates, as applicable. You are responsible for keeping your personal information up-to-date. You can also ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete personal information concerning you that you cannot update yourself within your account.

b) Access to your information

You have the right to request information about the personal information we hold on you at any time. You can contact us at support@semiretiredmd.com and we will provide you with your personal information via email. If you require additional copies, we may need to charge a reasonable fee.

If you are a Californian resident, once per calendar year, you may request that we provide a list of companies to which we disclose your personal information for business purposes, and a list of the categories of such personal information that we share. You may request further information about our compliance with this law by emailing support@semiretiredmd.com. Please include “California Privacy Rights Request” in the first line of the description and your California mailing or street address. Please note that we are only required to respond to one request per customer each year, and we are not required to respond to requests made by means other than through this e-mail address nor requests made by non-California US residents.

c) Right to erasure

If you no longer want us to use your information to provide you with our latest news or any of our services, you can request that we erase your personal information and close your account(s).

Please note, however, that we may retain some of your personal information as necessary for our legitimate interests, such as fraud detection and enhancing security. We may also retain and use your personal information to the extent necessary to comply with our legal obligations, such as keeping information for tax, legal reporting and auditing obligations, as well as professional obligations. Information you have shared with others (e.g. comments, community postings) may continue to be publicly visible. Additionally, some copies of your information (e.g. log records) may remain in our database, but are disassociated from personal identifiers. Residual copies may also be kept in our backup systems. If we have shared your personal information with service providers, we will let them know about the erasure where possible.

d) Right to object to direct marketing

If we rely on your consent as our legal basis for processing your personal information, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time. If you have already given your consent but you prefer not to receive promotional information from us, you may unsubscribe by using the unsubscribe link situated at the bottom of any promotional message you receive from us, or email us at support@semiretiredmd.com.

e) Restriction of processing

You can ask us to block or suppress the processing of your personal information in certain circumstances such as where you contest the accuracy of that personal information or you object to us processing it and we have no legitimate grounds that override yours. Such request alone does not stop us from storing your personal information.

If you are a Californian resident, you have the right to opt-out of the sale of your personal information. Under the California Consumer Privacy Act (the “CCPA”), the “sale” of personal information broadly includes any communication of personal information to any business that is deemed to be a “third party” (as defined in the CCPA) for monetary or other valuable consideration, subject to certain exceptions and limitations. Semi-Retired MD does not sell personal information. However, if you would like to submit such a request, please send your request to support@semiretiredmd.com.

f) Right to portability

Whenever we process your personal information, by automated means based on your consent or based on an agreement, you have the right to get a copy of your personal information transferred to you or to another party. This only includes the personal information you have provided to us.

g) Automated decision-making

You have the right to elect not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling (“Automated Decision-Making”). Semi-Retired MD’s Websites do not currently use Automated Decision-Making.

h) Consent withdrawal

To the extent we base the collection, processing, and sharing of your personal information on your consent, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of the processing based on such consent before its withdrawal.

i) Right to non-discrimination

Pursuant to the CCPA, we will not discriminate against Californian residents for exercising any of their rights under the CCPA. Unless permitted by the CCPA, we will not deny you services, charge you different prices or rates for services, impose penalties, provide you with a different level or quality of services, or suggest that you may receive a different price or rate for services or a different level or quality of services for the exercise of your CCPA rights.

j) Authorized agent

If you are a Californian resident, you may use an authorized agent to exercise certain privacy-related requests and rights on your behalf. The authorized agent’s exercise or request on your behalf sent by mail shall include a power of attorney or a notarized statement properly signed by you appointing such authorized agent for such purpose. If your authorized agent submits the exercise or request online, a copy of the power of attorney or the original notarized statement shall be sent to us by mail.

k) Questions or complaints

If you have any queries or to make any complaint in relation to these Terms of Use and Semi-Retired MD’s privacy practices, you may write to our Privacy Officer at support@semiretiredmd.com or at the following address:

Without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing paragraph, Semi-Retired MD does not warrant that:

The Websites or any Contents contained therewith will be constantly available, or available at all; or

The information on the Websites or in the Contents is complete, true, accurate or non-misleading.

Semi-Retired MD and its owners, presenters, and employees are not in the business of providing personal, financial, tax, legal or investment advice and specifically disclaims any liability, loss or risk, which is incurred as a consequence, either directly or indirectly, by the use of any of the information contained in the Websites and Contents.

5. LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY

Semi-Retired MD will not be liable to you (whether under the law of contract, the law of torts or otherwise) in relation to the use of, or otherwise in connection with, any of the Websites, Contents or Communities, as defined hereinbelow, online or offline:
