American United Health's utmost concern is your right to privacy. This Privacy Policy was developed to inform the public of the data gathering and dissemination practices applicable to our internet site. By using American United Health's website and services you are accepting the practices described in this Privacy Policy and agree to the Terms and Conditions that are presented on the Website. People who do not agree with these terms should not use this site or submit any personal information. NOTE: We are not responsible for the privacy practices of sites run by third parties that are linked to or integrated into our site, including the sites of our merchant partners, or for the privacy practices of these third-party advertising sites and networks. Once you leave American United Health's site by clicking on a link, graphic, or advertisement, you should check the privacy policy of that third party to determine how they handle the information they gather from you. American United Health does not act as an agent or business partner of any pharmacy referenced on this site.

Information posted to the Site may not be protected by any federal or state confidentiality, privacy, or security laws, including the administrative simplification provision of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 and its implementing regulations ("HIPAA"). This site is not intended to be, and must not be taken to be, the practice of medicine or the practice of other health care services by American United Health. Use of the Site and the Services does not create a physician/patient, provider/patient, confidential, or privileged relationship, or any other relationship that would give rise to any duties on the part of American United Health

From time to time, American United Health may find it necessary or be legally obligated to revise this Privacy Policy as we upgrade or change our offerings, as the law change, or for other reasons. If we make revisions that change the way we collect or use your personally identifiable information, those changes will be posted in this Privacy Policy, the effective date will be noted at the beginning of the Policy. Therefore, you should review our policy from time to time so you can be current with our most current policies and practices.
