Cookies

Our Web sites use cookies (i.e., small amounts of text that our servers place into a file on your computer's hard drive). You can reject cookies by changing your browser settings, but be aware that this will disable some of the functionality on our Web sites.

Personal information users give us

On some of our Web sites, visitors can register to purchase products or services, and receive personalized content. When you register, we will ask you for some personal information.

If you're purchasing a product, we'll request financial information (E.g., What is your credit card number?). Any financial information we collect is used only to bill you for the products and services you purchased. If you purchase by credit card, this information may be forwarded to your credit card provider.

For other types of registrations, we will ask for your name, address, e-mail address or telephone number. We may then contact you with information about other Trial Guides products and services in the future, in an attempt to make you aware of the best physician and legal texts, or continuing education available.

Finally, you may be asked to disclose personal information to us so that we can provide assistance and information to you. For example, we may collect personal information from you (such as an e-mail address, system information and problem descriptions) in order to provide online technical support and troubleshooting.

You can opt out at any time. You simply need to update your preferences with Trial Guides, LLC. Here's how:

How We Protect Your Information

Trial Guides LLC uses technical security measures to prevent the loss, misuse and alteration of information under our control.

In addition to the electronic element of security, all employees sign confidentiality waivers agreeing not to disclose information on customers to any third parties.
