The One Care Companion Privacy Policy
One Care Companion is committed to protecting the privacy of your information. We recognize that privacy is of utmost importance, and operate our company with protecting your sensitive personal information in mind. This privacy policy covers the service offered at the One Care Companion Website (the “Site”) and outlines the type of information we collect, its uses, and steps we take to safeguard it.
Information We Collect
One Care Companion is committed to helping individuals (“Elders”) and families (“Families”) who need home elder care services. We collect user-submitted personally identifying information and other information specific to the services requested or provided. As part of providing you our services, we may obtain personal information from the following sources:
Information you provide to us on forms that you enter on the Site or that you provide to us in writing.
Information that you provide to us by telephone, such as when you contact our office or customer support department.
Information we receive automatically when you visit our web site. Please see “Cookies and other Technical Data” below.
The information we collect may include: first name, last name, city, state, address, ZIP code, phone, email address and other information specific to the service requested or provided. If you become a registered subscriber we may collect your credit card information and billing address, if you explicitly decide to participate in programs that require this information.
If you use a blog or other feature offered on this Site, you should be aware that any personally identifiable information you post in your comments there can be read, collected, or used by other users of these forums, and could be used to send you unsolicited messages. We are not responsible for the personally identifiable information you choose to submit in this forum.
We use the information we obtain to develop and deliver our services and to fulfill legal requirements. We limit the collection and use of customer information to the minimum we require to deliver superior service to our customers and to administer our business.
Providing your information is voluntary and you can always choose not to provide it by choosing not to use our Site, services, or features.
Cookies and Other Technical Data
Our web servers also use “cookies”. A cookie is a small text file that is stored on a user’s computer. We use cookies to administer and customize our service and to better understand, on an aggregate basis, how users interact with our Site. If you choose to disable cookies, you may not be able to use certain features of the Site. For example, we require that you have cookies enabled to enroll in our service or to log in to your account. We do not store any personally identifiable information in cookies.
As is true of most web sites, when you visit our Site we gather certain information automatically and store it in log files. We gather technical information about your computer such as your browser type, manner of connection to the Internet, referring URL, IP address, operating system, and pages visited. We use this information in aggregate to analyze trends and administer our service. The information that we collect through log files is not tied to personally identifiable information.
We may also employ a third-party service provider to assist in tracking site usage. This service provider uses cookies and “tracking pixels” to collect information on our behalf about the pages you visit while on our site. This service allows us to better administer the site and our service. The data collected by this service provider does not identify individual users and the analysis of this data is performed on an aggregate basis.
We may use third-party advertising companies, such as Google, to serve or track ads on our web site and other web sites. These companies may use non-personally identifiable information about your visits to this and other web sites in order to measure advertising effectiveness and to provide advertisements about goods and services that may be of interest to you.
Third Party Information Sharing
The information collected by One Care Companion is used in the operation of the Site. However, if you decide to take advantage of products or services offered by third parties through the Site, you may explicitly instruct us to share the personal information (such as shipping address or credit card information) required to take advantage of their offers or programs. In this case, we would share your personal information with the third parties you identify. Otherwise, we do not share your personal information except as permitted or required by law or as described within this privacy policy and including the following:
In order to provide our services, we may share any of the information we gather about you with agents and service providers to perform functions on our behalf, such as to send email, host videos (if you decide to post one to your account), or process credit card payments. In addition, address information may be shared with a service provider to determine geographic information. These service providers may have access to personal information needed to perform their functions, but may not use it for other purposes.
We may disclose personal information about you to third parties when we believe such disclosure is appropriate to comply with a legal requirement, such as a law, regulation, court order, subpoena or search warrant, or in the course of a legal proceeding. We may also disclose personal information as we believe appropriate to enforce or apply our rights under our agreements with customers, to protect the rights, property or safety of One Care Companion, our customers and others, including exchanging information for fraud protection and credit risk reduction. If there is a change of control in One Care Companion‘s business (whether by merger, sale, or otherwise), its customer information could be sold as part of that transaction and your personally identifying information potentially could be used by the purchaser. However, if that business materially changes this statement or the information-handling practices as described in this statement, you will be notified by email and/or through a notice posted on our Site, and you will have a choice as to whether your existing information is used in a new manner.

How We Protect Your Information

One Care Companion is registered with a leading provider of digital authentication services and products for electronic commerce and other forms of secure communications. We use SSL (Secure Socket Layer), the industry standard method for computers to communicate securely without risk of manipulation or recipient impersonation. With SSL, you can be assured that your communication with the One Care Companion web site is secure. We utilize SSL in the online registration process, in the login process, and in the account management section of the Site.
One Care Companion uses encryption technology to protect sensitive information such as credit card information, date of birth, and information related to background checks.
One Care Companion employs firewalls and system monitoring to protect against unauthorized access of our systems.
Please remember that you also play a valuable role in data security. You should never share your One Care Companion password with anyone. If you feel your password has been compromised, you should change it immediately by logging into your account and visiting the “My Profile” section. After you have finished using our Site, you should log out of your One Care Companion account and exit your browser.

This Privacy Policy may change, from time to time, due to changes on our Site, legal developments, business factors and ever-changing technology. Notifications to changes of our Privacy Policy will be posted on our Site, and other places we deem appropriate so that you are aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it.
