What personal data we collect and why we collect it

When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

GLOBAL MEDICAL SUPPLY recognizes and respects the importance of customers’ privacy and security. To guarantee our customers a safe and confidential shopping experience, GLOBAL MEDICAL SUPPLY uses McAfee Secure to safeguard their personal information. More specifically, McAfee Secure actively employs Secure Sockets Layer, SSL, technology on the credit card and personal information pages of our website. SSL technology functions by managing server and client authentication, and encrypting both server and client communication.

Media

If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue. For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

How does GLOBAL MEDICAL SUPPLY use my information?

When you make a purchase from GLOBAL MEDICAL SUPPLY, we use the information you provide to us (name, address, phone, etc.) to process your order. We do not share or sell this information to third parties.

What third parties we receive data from

All information is considered private and confidential, and is only used to help us better serve you and improve your shopping experience while online with GLOBAL MEDICAL SUPPLY. All credit card numbers are routed through McAfee Secure and are never visible to GLOBAL MEDICAL SUPPLY for online purchases.
