Privacy Policy
Introduction.
Acuity Vision Care respects the privacy
of every individual who visits its Web sites and uses
its services. This privacy statement provides notice of
the standards and terms under which Acuity Vision Care
protects the privacy of information supplied by visitors
to sites on the World Wide Web that are owned and operated
by Acuity Vision Care. This privacy statement provides
notice of our information collection practices and of
the ways in which your information may be used. This policy
may change from time to time, so please check back periodically
to review this information.
Personally Identifiable Information.
Acuity Vision Care typically receives
specific data about its Web site visitors only when such
information is provided voluntarily, such as when our
visitors request information, purchase or enroll for services,
provide resume information for employment opportunities,
or send us e-mail. Of course, some of these activities
require that you give us information, such as when you
make a purchase, use a credit card or electronic payment
service to pay for Acuity Vision Care services, submit
your resume, or request certain types of information.
When you provide personally identifiable information to
Acuity Vision Care through one of our Web sites, it will
be used to fulfill your specific request. However, Acuity
Vision Care reserves the right, in its discretion, to
send you bulletins and other important information about
your Acuity Vision Care services.
Acuity Vision Care currently only sends service communication
e-mails through mojvision.org, and does not send marketing
e-mails or third-party advertisements through mojvision.org.
The service communication e-mails are essential to our
registering you for service and to our continuing provision
of services to you and may include notification of new
services available via mojvision.org or Acuity Vision
Care. Therefore, you may not opt out of receiving these
e-mail messages.
Acuity Vision Care will not, however, sell, trade, or
otherwise disclose your personally identifiable information
unless we are authorized or legally required to do so,
or in the case of imminent physical harm to any person.
On those Acuity Vision Care sites where you may provide
Acuity Vision Care with credit card, electronic payment
service, or other ordering information via the Web, Acuity
Vision Care protects and secures this information by employing
commercially customary Web-based security and encryption
protocols, an example of which is the Secure Socket Layer
(SSL). On those sites where you voluntarily offer any
feedback, data, answers, questions, comments, suggestions,
ideas or the like, Acuity Vision Care will treat that
portion of the information as non-confidential and non-proprietary
and, except as otherwise expressed in this privacy statement,
Acuity Vision Care assumes no obligation to protect such
information from disclosure.
Non-Personally Identifiable (Generic)
Information.
In general, Acuity Vision Care gathers
some generic information automatically. Generic information
does not reveal the identity of the visitor. It usually
includes information about the Internet address assigned
to your computer, the number and frequency of visitors,
and the Acuity Vision Care sites visited. Acuity Vision
Care gathers this information for the limited purpose
of determining customer service and Web site needs. We
accomplish this by using certain technologies, including
"cookies" (a technology that can be used to
provide the visitor with tailored information about Acuity
Vision Care services). Acuity Vision Care does not combine
information collected in this way with any personally
identifiable information. You can set your Web browser
to notify you when you receive a cookie and you can refuse
it. However, refusing some cookies may make it impossible
to use or navigate the Acuity Vision Care Web site properly.

used for any or all of the following purposes:
