A) Personal Information
We also use personal information about you to improve our marketing and promotional efforts; to statistically analyze site usage; to improve our content and product offerings; and to customize our sites' content, layout and services. We may also use your information to deliver information to you that, in some cases, is targeted to your interests, new services and promotions. We believe these uses allow us to improve our site and better tailor it to meet our visitors' needs. Digital Physician does not collect personal information automatically, but we may combine non-personal information collected automatically (e.g., through web log data) with your previously submitted personal information.
B) Aggregate and Statistical Data
Digital Physician uses web log information (such as your web browser, operating system, pages visited, etc.) to help us design our website, to identify popular features, and for other managerial purposes.

We may share web log information with law enforcement agencies if we believe that we have evidence of a violation of computer security or related laws.
A) How We May Share Information
Except as stated below, we will not share, trade or sell personal information of our visitors for use by any business. However, aggregated and statistical data from our visitors may be shared with our partners. For example, we may let a partner know that approximately "75% of our visitors use high speed connections or access our site after 7pm." Occasionally, we may share personal information from you (such as name, mailing addresses and e-mail addresses) with vendors, contractors or partners of Digital Physician in connection with services that these individuals or entities perform for or with Digital Physician. These vendors, contractors or partners are restricted from using this data in any way other than to provide services for Digital Physician, and they may not share or resell this data.
