3. Collection of Member Data

We may collect information about when you become a member of a Website, including your name, address, date of birth, email, education and specialties.  Because our Websites are designed to serve as communities of medical professionals, it is important that we have the ability to independently verify the identities of members and their information.  Accordingly, when you become a member of a Website, you consent to our using and sharing your information to contact third parties to obtain additional information about you.  For example, we may contact an educational entity to verify the accuracy of your member information.  Where possible, we may link your information with publicly available information about you, or information obtained from our affiliates or other Websites.

Information collected by Lineage Medical under this Policy is stored on secure servers, which are protected by industry standard security measures.  However, no security system is impenetrable, and these systems could become accessible in the event of a security breach.  We cannot enforce or control the security of the computers, electronic devices, or electronic communication method that you may use to send e-mails and submit information to us over the Internet.  You are responsible for ensuring that the computers, electronic devices and electronic communication methods you use will provide adequate security for communicating with us.
