Bellagio Medical Group respects your privacy and is committed to protecting personal information that may be collected through our website, online forms, communications, and related services.

Healthcare information may receive additional protections under applicable federal and state laws, including HIPAA where applicable.

Please do not submit highly sensitive medical information through a general website contact form unless the form or communication method is specifically intended for that purpose.

The FTC notes that health information can include information that enables inferences about a person’s health, including certain browsing or location information, so website tracking technologies should be configured consistently with the organization’s actual privacy practices.

Our website may use cookies, pixels, analytics tools, and similar technologies to operate the website, understand website usage, improve performance, and support certain website functions.

Depending on the technology used, these tools may collect information about how visitors interact with the website.

We review website technologies and their purposes to help ensure that information collected through these tools is handled appropriately.

You may be able to manage certain cookies through your browser settings or available website privacy controls.

5. Analytics and Website Services

We may use third-party technology providers to help us understand website traffic, improve website performance, maintain security, or provide website functionality.

These providers may process certain technical or usage information on our behalf.

Third-party services may have their own privacy policies and terms.

Healthcare organizations should carefully evaluate online tracking technologies because certain tracking tools may collect or transmit information that could be considered health-related depending on the context.

6. How We Share Information

We may share information when reasonably necessary to operate our organization and provide services, including with:

• Protect the rights, safety, and property of Bellagio Medical Group, our patients, employees, or others
• Investigate suspected fraud, abuse, or security incidents
• Protect the security and integrity of our systems

8. Information Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect information against unauthorized access, use, disclosure, alteration, or destruction.

However, no website, online service, or electronic transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

The FTC advises organizations handling health information to maintain appropriate safeguards and to ensure that privacy and security statements accurately reflect actual practices.

9. Data Retention

We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, to provide services, maintain business records, meet legal or regulatory requirements, resolve disputes, and enforce applicable agreements.

Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and applicable legal requirements.

10. Children’s Privacy

Our website is not intended to knowingly collect personal information from children in violation of applicable law.

If information is collected through a service or page directed toward children, additional privacy requirements may apply.

Parents or guardians who believe that a child has provided personal information inappropriately may contact us using the information provided below.

The FTC’s COPPA guidance emphasizes that websites directed toward children may have specific notice, consent, and information-handling requirements.

• Request access to certain information
• Request correction of inaccurate information
