These social widgets may collect browsing data, which may be received by the third party that provided the widget and are controlled by third parties. UTM Codes: These are strings that can appear in a URL (the “Uniform Resource Locator,” which is typically the HTTP or HTTPS address entered to go to a web page) when you move from one webpage or website to another, where the string can represent information about browsings, such as which advertisement, page, or publisher sent the user to the receiving website. We use Google Tag Manager, which allows marketed website tags to be managed using an interface. The tool itself (which implements the tags) is a cookie-less domain and does not register identifiable data. The tool causes other tags to be activated which may, for their part, register personal data under certain circumstances. Google Tag Manager does not access this information.

HOW LONG DO WE STORE YOUR INFORMATION? NOTICE OF PRIVACY PRACTICES THIS NOTICE DESCRIBES HOW MEDICAL INFORMATION ABOUT YOU MAY BE USED AND DISCLOSED AND HOW YOU CAN GET ACCESS TO THIS INFORMATION. PLEASE REVIEW IT CAREFULLY. This Notice of Privacy Practices (“Notice”) is given to you by JourneyPure to describe the ways in which we may use and disclose your medical information (called “protected health information” or “PHI”) and notify you of your rights with respect to PHI in the possession of JourneyPure. PHI is information that may identify you and that relates to your past, present, or future physical or mental health or condition; the provision of health care products and services to you; or the payment for such services. JourneyPure has designated itself as a hybrid entity under the federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (“HIPAA”), and this Notice applies to those functions of JourneyPure that have been designated as being covered by HIPAA. As a result, this Notice only applies when JourneyPure is providing treatment. JourneyPure is committed to protecting the privacy of PHI, which is protected from disclosure by state and federal law. In certain circumstances, pursuant to this Notice, patient authorization, or applicable laws and regulations, PHI can be used by JourneyPure or disclosed to other parties. The categories below describe these uses and disclosures and include some examples to help you better understand each category. JourneyPure is required by law to maintain the privacy of your PHI, to provide individuals with notice of the legal duties and privacy practices with respect to PHI, and to abide by the terms described in this Notice. JourneyPure reserves the right to change the terms of this Notice and its privacy policies and to make the new terms applicable to all of the PHI it maintains. Before JourneyPure makes an important change to its privacy policies, we will promptly revise this Notice and post the new Notice in registration areas and online. Uses and Disclosures of PHI for Which Authorization is Not Required JourneyPure may use or disclose your PHI for purposes of treatment, payment, and health care operations, as described in more detail below, without obtaining written authorization from you. The protections afforded to substance use disorder information are discussed in the “Your Rights Related to Substance Use Disorder Records” section below. FOR TREATMENT: JourneyPure may use and disclose PHI in the course of providing, coordinating, or managing your medical treatment, including the disclosure of PHI for treatment activities at another healthcare facility. These types of uses and disclosures may take place between physicians, nurses, technicians, students, and other health care professionals who provide your health care services or are otherwise involved in your care. For example, if you are being treated by a primary care physician, JourneyPure may need to disclose PHI to that physician when we consult regarding your condition. FOR PAYMENT: JourneyPure may use and disclose PHI in order to collect payment for the health care services provided to you. For example, JourneyPure may need to give PHI to your health plan in order to be reimbursed for the services provided to you. JourneyPure may also disclose PHI to business associates, such as billing companies, claims processing companies, and others that assist in processing health claims. JourneyPure may also disclose PHI to other health care providers and health plans for the payment activities of such providers or health plans. FOR HEALTH CARE OPERATIONS: JourneyPure may use and disclose PHI as part of its operations, including for quality assessment and improvements, such as evaluating the treatment and services you receive and the performance of our staff in caring for you. Other activities include training, underwriting activities, compliance and risk management activities, planning and development, as well as management and administration. JourneyPure may disclose PHI to doctors, nurses, technicians, students, attorneys, consultants, accountants, and others for review and learning purposes. These disclosures help make sure that JourneyPure is complying with all applicable laws and is continuing to provide health care to patients at a high level of quality. JourneyPure may also disclose PHI to other health care facilities and plans for certain of their operations, including their quality assessment and improvement activities, credentialing, peer review activities, and health care fraud and abuse detection or compliance, provided that those other facilities and plans have, or have had in the past, a relationship with the patient who is the subject of the information.

However, JourneyPure is unable to retract or invalidate any uses or disclosures that were made with your permission before you revoked your authorization. HIPAA provides additional protection for psychotherapy notes, and most uses or disclosures of psychotherapy notes require your written permission. Psychotherapy notes are the personal notes of mental health professionals about a private or group counseling session. In addition, other types of information may have greater protection under federal or state law, such as certain drug and alcohol information (discussed in more detail below), HIV/AIDS and other communicable disease information, genetic information, mental health information, or information about developmental disabilities. For this type of information, we may be required to get your written permission before disclosing it to others. We may seek that permission in our intake forms if permitted by law.

Your Rights Related to Substance Use Disorder Records Federal law and regulations, 42 USC § 290dd-2 and 42 CFR Part 2 provide additional protections for the confidentiality of information related to the diagnosis, treatment, and referral for treatment or prevention of substance use disorders. Generally, JourneyPure will not disclose to anyone outside the program that a person attends the program or disclose any protected substance use disorder information identifying an individual without written authorization. JourneyPure may, however, disclose your information pursuant to your written authorization. In addition, JourneyPure may disclose information identifying an individual as having or having had a substance use disorder without authorization, in the following situations (1) when the disclosure is made to medical personnel in a medical emergency; (2) to law enforcement agencies that are directly related to a patient’s commission or threat of a crime on JourneyPure’s premises or against JourneyPure personnel; (3) when relating to the cause of death of a patient under laws requiring the collection of death or other vital statistics; (4) when the disclosure is made under state law to report suspected child abuse or neglect; (5) when the disclosure is allowed by a court order in limited circumstances; (6) to individuals within the criminal justice system who have made participation in the program a condition of the disposition of a criminal proceeding or of the patient’s parole; (7) to medical personnel of the FDA in limited circumstances; and (8) for audit and evaluation purposes, subject to certain requirements. The restrictions on disclosure also do not apply to, and JourneyPure may also disclose substance use disorder information through, communications of information between or among personnel having a need for the information in connection with their duties that arise out of the provision of diagnosis, treatment, or referral for treatment of patients with substance use disorders if the communications are either (a) within JourneyPure, or (b) between JourneyPure and an entity that has direct administrative control over the program. Similarly, federal law permits communications between JourneyPure and a “qualified service organization” (QSO) of information needed by the QSO to provide services to JourneyPure. JourneyPure is required by law to inform you that information related to a patient’s commission of a crime on JourneyPure’s premises or against JourneyPure personnel is not protected and that reports of suspected child abuse and neglect made under state law to appropriate state or local authorities are not protected. Violation of federal law and regulations by JourneyPure is a crime, and suspected violations with respect to substance use disorder information may be reported to the United States Attorney for the judicial district in which the violation occurs: Northern District of Florida Gainesville: (352) 380-2400 Panama City: (850) 691-0770 Pensacola: (850) 435-8440 Tallahassee: (850) 521-3501 Middle District of Florida Fort Myers: (239) 461-2000 Jacksonville: (904) 549-1900 Ocala: (352) 369-4860 Orlando: (407) 835-4200 Tampa: (813) 301-5400 Western District of Kentucky Bowling Green: (270) 393-2500 Louisville: (502) 625-3500 Owensboro: (270) 689-4400 Paducah: (270) 415-6400 Eastern District of Kentucky Lexington: (859) 233-2503 Ashland: (606) 329-2465 Covington: (859) 392-7925 Frankfort: (502) 223-5225 London: (606) 877-7910 Pikeville: (606) 437-6160 Middle District of Tennessee Nashville: (615) 736-5498 Columbia: (615) 736-5498 Northeastern: (615) 736-5498 Eastern District of Tennessee Greenville: (423) 639-3105 Knoxville: (865) 545-4228 Winchester: (931) 967-1444 Chattanooga: (423) 752-5200 Reporting to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (www.SAMHSA.gov) may also be appropriate.
