These types of information are defined below and explanations are given as to how PHD uses that information.
Personally Identifiable Information
“Personally Identifiable Information” is information about a person that is readily identifiable to that specific individual. It includes, for example, an individual’s name, street address, e-mail address, or phone number. This type of information will not be collected unless you voluntarily submit it through email or submitting an online PHD form of some kind. An example of this would be to fill out and submit the Contact Us form.
Non-Personally Identifiable Information
“Non-Personally Identifiable Information” is information collected through the use of cookies and web analytic software that tracks your browser info, session details, IP, and links followed. This type of information is generally used for aggregate analysis by our web team and then used to improve user experience and delivery of information.
Both personal and non-personal information, are used for internal purposes only. No information that we collect through the web site will be sold or shared with 3rd parties or unaffiliated groups. The SMS obtained or phone numbers for the purpose of SMS will not be shared with third parties.
