1. Information That You Give Us

In addition to PII, Eyeglasses2Go may also collect the protected health information (“Protected Health Information” or “PHI”) of you or of an individual for which you are requesting health services.

Another example of how Eyeglasses2Go may obtain your PHI and/or PII is you may grant permission for other third-parties to share your information directly with Eyeglasses2Go. This would include, without limitation, the Application’s access and synchronization of your PHI and/or PII with the Apple Health application and/or Apple Health Records.

Ultimately, the information that Eyeglasses2Go collects varies depending upon how you use our Services and what permissions you give to us and other third-parties that also collect your PII and/or PHI.

We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. No method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, however.

Only authorized personnel can access the data center. Eyeglasses2Go systems and databases are backed up regularly to help protect the data in case of an uncontrollable catastrophe. The data center that stores Eyeglasses2Go’s servers has policies and procedures in place designed to safeguard the equipment that our data is stored on. Eyeglasses2Go regularly upgrades its system software to include the latest security features. Eyeglasses2Go servers are protected by a firewall system, which is designed to keep unwanted traffic or access out of our computer network. Eyeglasses2Go also employs an intrusion prevention service (IPS) provided by a secured data center operated by a professional company, and uses security methods to determine the identity of each registered user, so that appropriate rights and restrictions can be enforced for that user. Reliable verification of user identity is called “authentication.” All communication between Eyeglasses2Go’s Web server, your browser and the Application is encrypted with SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) to guard against network eavesdroppers. Your password is internally encrypted in Eyeglasses2Go’s system to prevent unauthorized access to the system. Validations are built throughout the application to capture the most reliable information. Only the last 4 digits of your credit card number is stored on our servers.
