PRIVACY POLICY

TTMS provides the following privacy policy (the "Privacy Policy") in order to demonstrate our firm commitment to privacy. TTMS may need to change this Privacy Policy from time to time in order to address new issues and to reflect changes on our Site. Please refer back to this Privacy Policy regularly because your use of the Site signifies that you agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Privacy Policy, as amended from time to time.

a. Collection of Personal Information. TTMS may ask for information about our users at the point of registration. Such information may include name, age, education level, gender, e-mail address, zip code and areas of interest. This information tells us about the types of people ( e.g., providers vs. patients) who use the Site, allows us to verify a user's identity and helps us tailor the Site to our audience.

b. Use of Personally Identifiable Information. TTMS will not sell or otherwise transfer or disclose personally identifiable information to third parties without the user's prior consent except as may be required by federal, state or local law, or by exigent circumstances. That means that TTMS will not disclose your name, e-mail address, street address or phone number without your consent. We may use your personally identifiable information to compile and display content and information that we think you might be interested in. TTMS also may use your profile information on an aggregate basis -- without personal identifiers -- to develop and display new features and content for the Site, and to provide others with aggregate information about our users and the usage patterns of the Site. TTMS also may perform statistical analyses of user behavior (on an aggregate basis) in order to measure interest in and use of the various areas of the Site.

Other identifying information is not made available. Users of the Site agree to use directory and database information for individual, personal and confidential reference purposes only and agree not to use the directory or databases, in whole or in part, for mailing lists, solicitations, fundraising or commercial purposes. Users of the Site further understand and agree that their names and contact information may be posted on this site in a database for access by other users. Such users agree to hold TTMS harmless from any and all claims arising out of or relating to the publication or display of their names and/or contact information.

d. Retention of User Information. It is not possible for a user to delete his or her profile from our database, nor is it feasible to delete all traces of a user's activity in the system. Messages posted to bulletin boards are examples of user activities that are not feasible to delete.

e. Voluntary Disclosure of Personally Identifiable Information on Bulletin Boards, News Groups and Chat Rooms, and other Interactive Areas (collectively "Interactive Areas"). Users should be aware that when they voluntarily disclose personally identifiable information (for example, user name, e-mail address) on an Interactive Area of the Site, that information, along with any substantive information disclosed in the user's communication, can be collected and correlated and used by third parties and may result in unsolicited messages from third parties. Such activities are beyond the control of TTMS and TTMS is not responsible for the discoverability of any user's identity by methods beyond our control.

f. Cookie Technology. TTMS collects non-personal identification information through the use of "cookie" technology and/or Internet Protocol ("IP") address tracking.
