Security and Privacy
Online Privacy Statement
Hawaii Family Dental Centers respects our customers’ right to privacy online. Your personal information is handled safely and responsibly in confidence.
As we continue to develop our Web site and take advantage of technologies to improve the services we offer, this statement may change. We therefore encourage you to refer to this statement on an ongoing basis so that you understand our current security and privacy practices.
Personal Information Privacy
Providing you with a secure online experience is a high priority for Hawaii Family Dental Centers. We recognize that your privacy and security are the utmost importance and we have made substantial investment in the latest server, database, backup and firewall technologies to protect the information assets of Hawaii Family Dental Centers. These technologies are deployed as part of a sophisticated security architecture and protocol. All data resides in a tightly controlled, secure data center. These investments mean that information about the identity and preferences of individual users and partners is never accessible to anyone outside of Hawaii Family Dental Centers.
Hawaii Family Dental Centers will take all appropriate steps to keep your personal information confidential. Those steps include limiting access to customer information databases, communicating this policy statement to all HFDC employees, and establishing and enforcing penalties for violating this statement.
The information is specifically for the use of Hawaii Family Dental Centers and Hawaii Dental Group. HFDC will not sell, rent, or give away our customers' personal information to other companies for use in selling others' products or services.
All information is used for the purposes of your membership to an HFDC dental plan, or information specific to our patients. Therefore, your information may be used in the following ways:
- To process your enrollment application and verify eligibility to the dental plan you have selected.
- To inform you of an update or change to the benefits of a dental plan, or as a means to communicate information specific to your membership.
- To inform you of upcoming HFDC events or special promotions specific to our patients.
Hawaii Family Dental Centers may share account or other information when we believe it is necessary to comply with the law or to protect our interests or property. This may include sharing information with other companies, lawyers, credit bureaus, agents or government agencies in connection with issues related to fraud, credit or debt collection.
We will communicate with customers via e-mail or other online delivery devices only if the customer agrees to receive those communications. Customers, who believe they are receiving our communications in error or no longer desire to receive them, should inform us and we will remove those customers' names from our mailing lists. Hawaii Family Dental Centers will be judicious in the use of e-mail and paper mail to communicate with customers. We will, at all times, put ourselves in the place of the recipients of our mail and treat our customers as we ourselves would like to be treated.
Enrollment Information Privacy and Credit Card Security
We currently use the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol to safeguard your information, including your credit card number, during online transactions. We believe SSL to be a very safe encryption method, but we are always looking for even more secure encryption methods to safeguard information sent online. Our server will run detection software to help ensure you are using a secure browser and your information is secure when you check out. If our browser determines you are not using a secure browser, a message will appear at checkout.
To protect your information once your transaction is complete, Hawaii Family Dental Centers stores your information on an off-line server stored securely behind our firewall. There is no external access to this information and its internal access is strictly monitored.
For your protection, never put your credit card number or other sensitive information in unencrypted e-mail. In the extremely unlikely event that we ever do suspect a customer's credit card number has been intercepted, we will immediately notify the customer.
Contact Us
With these security measures in place, you can feel confident that your online transaction will be secure. If you have any questions about this security and privacy statement, the practices of this site, or your dealings with HFDC, please contact us at adupont@hawaiifamilydental.com or by calling (808) 523-3111.
