Privacy Statement
The
LiverTumor.org website is owned and operated by RITA Medical Systems,
Inc. (referred to herein as "RITA"). LiverTumor.org is
committed to protecting your privacy online. In order to fully understand
your rights, we encourage you to read our Privacy Statement. Please
direct questions regarding this statement to [email protected].
Livertumor.org
offers important and useful information for patients with liver
cancer.
When
does RITA collect my personally identifiable information?
RITA
may gather information from visitors in two ways: user-submitted
requests and IP addresses.
Submitted
Requests. If you disclose personal information when you contact
us, including, but not limited to, when you request information
or referrals, the information you disclose will be subject to this
policy.
IP
Address. We may also log IP addresses for the purposes of systems
administration or to report information in aggregate form to our
advertisers and partners (e.g., how many visitors logged in to our
website). An IP address is a number that is assigned to your computer
automatically when you use the Internet. When you visit a particular
web page in the website, our servers log your IP address. We do
not link your IP address to anything personally identifiable.
Who
does RITA share information with?
In
general, we will not disclose your personal information to third
parties except to the extent necessary to provide you with a service
you have requested, or under circumstances required by law. We will
disclose your personal information when we believe in good faith
that any applicable law, regulation, or legal process requires it,
or where we believe disclosure is necessary to protect or enforce
our rights or the rights of another user. We also disclose aggregated
user statistics in order to describe our services and reach to prospective
partners, advertisers, and other third parties. However, aggregate
data is not traceable to you specifically.
What
are my options to control the use of my personal information?
You
may request the removal of your personal information from our user
records by sending e-mail to [email protected]. We will send
an e-mail to confirm your request. After you respond, we will remove
your information from our database. Residual information may remain
in our archives and records, but this information will not be used
for a commercial purpose (however we may notify you of major changes
to our service from time to time).
What
else should I know about my privacy?
Although
we will use all reasonable efforts to safeguard the privacy of your
personal information, transmissions made by means of the Internet
cannot be made absolutely secure. RITA assumes no liability for
disclosure of data due to errors in transmission or unauthorized
third parties.

with any policy described in this Privacy Statement, your only remedy
is to discontinue use of the LiverTumor.org site. We reserve the
right to modify this Privacy Statement at any time. Your continued
use of any portion of the LiverTumor.org site following notification
