PRIVACY POLICY
Thank you for visiting the Tu Clínica Hispana Familiar (CHF) website and for reviewing our privacy policy. CHF is committed to maintaining the confidentiality of your personal information. CHF complies with applicable federal law regarding the collection, use and disclosure of personally identifiable information (PII).
Our confidentiality policy is clear:
- CHF does not collect any personally identifiable information (PII) when you visit our website unless you choose to provide it.
- Any PII you choose to provide is completely protected.
- Non-PII information related to your visit to our website may be automatically collected and stored temporarily.
The following describes how we handle information about your visit to our site:
Information that is automatically collected and stored
When you browse any website, there is certain information about your visit that may be collected. If during your visit to the CHF website you do nothing other than browse the site, read the pages or download information, certain data about your visit will be automatically grouped and stored. This information does not identify you personally. We automatically collect and temporarily store only the following information about your visit:
- The Internet domain (for example, “companyx.com” if you use a private Internet access account, or “schoolname.edu” if you connect from a university domain), as well as the IP address (an IP address is the number that is automatically assigned to a computer when it is browsing the web);
- the operating system and information about the browser used to access the website;
- the date and time of the visit;
- the specific pages you visit;
- if you set yourclinicahispanafamiliar.com as your home page; and
- the amount of information (measured in bytes) transmitted from tuclinicahispanafamiliar.com to your computer.
We use this information in the aggregate to measure how many people visit our site and its various sections, to improve the way the site works, and to improve customer service in general by making it more useful.
Measurement and adaptation technologies on the Internet
All use of measurement and adaptation technologies on the Internet will comply with existing regulations regarding privacy and data protection standards. Information systems owned and operated by CHF are subject to “Privacy Impact Assessments” ( PIAs ). Record sets containing information about an individual that are designed to be retrieved by name or other personally identifiable information linked to the individual are covered by the Privacy Act of 1974, as amended (5 U.S.C. Section 552a).
The CHF website uses a variety of web measurement and tailoring technologies to collect and analyze information about users’ visits. Some pages on yourclinichispanafamiliar.com may include web content or functionality from third parties. For example, there may be content or functionality from the following third parties on some pages on yourclinichispanafamiliar.com:
- HubSpot
- Others
If you send us personal information
You do not have to give us personal information to visit the CHF website. If you choose to provide us with additional information about yourself through our website—such as in an email message, questionnaire, form, online survey, or other tool—we will only use that information to respond to your message.
We will maintain all information you provide to us in compliance with applicable federal law. CHF will not disclose, give away, sell or transfer any personal information about visitors to our website unless requested by law enforcement or required by law. Furthermore, we do not create individual profiles with the information you provide or provide it to any private organization. CHF does not collect information for commercial marketing purposes.
Please remember, however, that e-mail messages may be intercepted. Therefore, if your message is confidential or includes personal information, you may prefer to send it to CHF by postal mail.
If you choose to provide us with personally identifiable information (PII)—that is, information that is personal in nature and can be used to identify you—such as in an e-mail message, questionnaire, form, online survey, or other tool, through our website, we will maintain that information for as long as necessary to respond to your question or to fulfill the purpose of your communication. If we store your personal information in a record-keeping system designed to retrieve contact information for individuals by means of a personal identifier (e.g., name, personal e-mail address, postal address, mobile or personal telephone number, etc.), we will safeguard your information in compliance with the Privacy Act of 1974, as amended (5 USC 552a).
If CHF operates a record keeping system to achieve its mission, it will collect information you enter, a prominent Privacy Act notice will appear on the website for the general public or on the form requesting your PII. If applicable, such notice must mention the following five criteria:
- The reason CHF is collecting your information.
- CHF’s legal authorization to collect your information.
- The routine uses for which your information will be disclosed outside of CHF.
- Whether providing your information is voluntary or legally required.
- The consequences, if any, of not disclosing your information should you choose not to provide it.

External applications and websites
In addition to the official CHF website at tuclinicahispanafamiliar.com, CHF utilizes social media and external (non-CHF) sites to share information and seek public engagement. For example, there may be external applications or services linked to or embedded in tuclinicahispanafamiliar.com to enhance its functionality. Similarly, applications created by CHF may be embedded in external websites as a way to increase public awareness of CHF’s activities. The integration of these products is intended to provide the user with a seamless experience and to increase the user’s ability to access information and communicate with CHF.
What you do on these external sites is governed by the privacy and security policies of those sites.

CHF will not collect, maintain, use or share any PII that is made available through CHF’s use of third-party applications or websites.
Please note that the privacy policy of social media and external websites that are not part of the tuclinicahispanafamiliar.com domain may not be the same as the privacy policy described here. Non-governmental third parties may have access to PII or any other information that you submit through social media or an external application or website. As mentioned in the policies of these websites, you can communicate with CHF without involving an external party.
