Kerr Drug Privacy and Terms of Use

About our Health Content on Diabetes
Our health content on this site describes general principles of diabetes that should not in any event be construed as treatment or specific instructions for individual patients. This material is not intended as a guide to self-medication or as a substitute for proper medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment of diabetes by a licensed provider. It is for reference only and should not be used to determine treatment for specific medical conditions--only a health care provider can do that. You should discuss the information provided with a physician, pharmacist, nurse, or other licensed health care professional. You should also check product information (including package inserts) regarding dosage, precautions, warnings, interactions, and contraindications before administering or using any device, drug, herb, vitamin, or supplement discussed on this site.

Proper treatment of diabetes depends upon a number of factors, including, but not limited to, your medical history, diet, lifestyle, and medication regimen. Your health care provider can best assess and address your individual health care needs. You should consult with your health care provider before starting a new diet, fitness, or supplement regimen. If you experience a medical crisis, please call 911 or contact your local emergency assistance service immediately.

Information and statements about dietary supplements have not been evaluated by the US Food and Drug Administration and are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, mitigate, or prevent any disease or health condition.

For information about the privacy of patient health information, please review the FightDiabetesNC.com Notice of Privacy Practices.

At FightDiabetesNC.com, we are committed to ensuring your online privacy, and this guides every decision we make about how, where, and when to collect your personally identifiable information on our Web site. Our site meets security and privacy standards for both e-commerce and personal information. If you have any questions or concerns about this statement, or about the way your information is collected and used, please contact us, or call us toll-free at (888) 607-4287.

Our Privacy Practices
We are the sole owner of our customers' personally identifiable information. Your personally identifiable information is information that can be used to contact or identify you. Your name, home address, telephone number, and email address are examples of personally identifiable information. We do not sell, rent, or loan any of this information to any third party, and we will not release it to any third party unless legally required or permitted to do so. With a customer's explicit permission or if a customer chooses to use the services of our partners, we may pass certain specified personally identifiable information to partners. We may also share non-personally identifiable information with partners. Please read more about the Use of Information by Third Party Partners.

Cookies
Like many other Web sites, we also collect information about site traffic and usage patterns through the use of cookies and Web server logs. Cookies are small computer files we transfer to your computer's hard drive. These small text files help us personalize content on our pages and provide programs like e-coupons. Your browser software can be set to reject or accept cookies. Instructions for resetting the browser are available in the Help section of most browsers.

Our use of cookies also allows us to collect and retain certain information about a Web site user, such as the type of Web browser used by our customer. This information is not linked to personally identifiable information about a particular individual or customer account, but it is collected from a particular computer as the user moves through a Web site.

Reviewing our Web server logs and our customers' use of our site helps us to statistically monitor how many people are using our site and for what purpose. Only authorized FightDiabetesNC.com and/or Kerr Drug personnel have access to the Web server logs, cookie utilization data, and purchase history information collected by us. These employees are held to confidentiality standards and security policies and procedures.

Use of Information by Third Party Partners
In order to provide you with content and services that match your interests, Kerr Drug and FightDiabetesNC.com have relationships with third party companies to provide technology, services, and/or content under Kerr Drug and FightDiabetesNC.com branding. We also provide off-site links that we feel may be of interest to our customers.

Some of the services we offer through partnerships require registration to make them function properly. You are under no obligation to provide this information to them. You may choose not to share your information with such partners by not using that service or viewing that content. When you register to use one of these areas, the information you provide may be collected and saved by the partner.

Our partners may also use cookies on their sites. We are unable to control their use of cookies or how they manage the information they gather from these cookies. You should make every effort to read the individual privacy policies of our partners, and make your own informed decision about whether or not to continue.

How We Keep Your Information Secure
We use security measures to protect against the loss, misuse, and alteration of the information under our control. Specifically, we use Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology for the areas of our site where we ask you to provide personally identifiable information. SSL technology protects the personal information you give us by encrypting it. Encryption involves systematically scrambling numbers and letters so that if someone managed to intercept a packet of information, they would not be able to make sense of it. Although encryption slows the process of sending information across the Internet, it does help the information to be secure.

You can tell you have entered a secured area when you look at the Universal Resource Locator (URL) in your browser's address bar and see that it has "https://" before the rest of the Web address. The "s" means that the page is hosted from a secured server. We may use secured servers for our Registration/Membership and Sign In pages, Your Account pages, order processing pages, special promotions and/or other pages. Unsecured pages have URLs that begin with "http://" (without the "s"). Most of our shopping aisles and health information areas are hosted from servers that do not use SSL. Since we do not collect personal information in these areas, using regular servers ensures a faster browsing experience.

You may on occasion encounter a standard warning that many browsers display when a visitor moves from a "secured" page to an "unsecured" page. When you encounter such a warning on our Web site, it usually means that you are moving from an "https://" to an "http://" page. If you see other browser warnings or error messages concerning the security of our site, please contact us. Include the specific wording you saw and where at FightDiabetesNC.com you encountered the message. Providing us with these details helps us to know if you have encountered a technical difficulty or a standard warning like the one described above.
