How We May Collect Other Information
We and our third-party service providers may collect Other Information in a variety of ways, including:

An IP address is identified and logged automatically in our server log files whenever you use the Client Care Access site, along with the time of the use and the pages or areas visited. Collecting IP addresses is standard practice on the Internet and is done automatically by many websites and applications. We and our third-party service providers use IP addresses for purposes such as calculating portal usage levels, diagnosing server problems and administering the Client Care Access site. We may also use your IP address to derive your approximate location.

We and our third-party service providers use cookies and other technologies to, among other things, serve you with more tailored information, facilitate your ongoing access to and use of the Client Care Access site, and collect anonymous traffic data so that we can better understand portal use. If you do not want information collected through the use of cookies, there is a simple procedure in most devices that allows you to decline the use of cookies. To learn more, please visit https://www.allaboutcookies.org/. If you choose to decline cookies, some or all of the features and functionality of the Client Care Access site may not be available to you. At this time, we do not respond to browser do-not-track signals.
- Using pixel tags and other similar technologies: We may use pixel tags (also known as web beacons and clear GIFs) and other similar technologies to, among other things, track the actions of Client Care Access site users and e-mail recipients, measure the success of our marketing campaigns and compile statistics about portal use.
- Demographic information: Information such as your practice area or gender is collected when you voluntarily provide it. On its own, it does not personally identify you.
- By aggregating information: Aggregated Personal Information does not personally identify you or any other user of the Client Care Access site.
How We May Use and Disclose Other Information
We may use and disclose Other Information for any purpose, except where we are required to do otherwise under applicable law. In some instances, we may combine Other Information with Personal Information. If we do, we will treat the combined information as Personal Information as long as it is combined.
