Cookies

Apart from the personal information collected when physician visitors sign up, we also collect anonymous non-personal information through the use of “cookie technology”. Cookies are small text files a Web site creates when you visit a site. There are two common types of cookies, “session cookies” and “persistent cookies”. Session cookies store information only for the length of time that you are connected to a web site. Unlike “persistent cookies”, they are not written onto your hard drive. The use of cookies is an industry standard and many major web sites use them to provide useful features to their visitors. Cookies in and of themselves do not personally identify users, although they do identify a user’s computer.

a. Cookies and Web Usage Reports

We use session cookies to learn how all our visitors navigate throughout the various parts of the web site. This web site tracking data is used in the aggregate to help us provide the most efficient service and navigational tools for our visitors.

For registered physician visitors, we also link the web site tracking data generated from the session cookies to some of the personal information you provided. Through this linkage, we can create aggregate demographic profiles of web usage. These statistical and aggregate reports do not contain any personally identifiable information.

We use aggregate reports to learn how many visitors with certain characteristics (e.g. specialty, geographic region) visit a particular portion of the web site. This aggregate information will help us to determine areas of the web site of particular interest to certain segments of the physician community. The aggregate reports could also serve as the catalyst for the creation of new features at the allori.com.au site and the development of future benefits and services for physicians. With your permission, you will receive email notices about these new features and services. As stated above, you can indicate at the initial registration stage or at any time whether you wish to receive email updates about the web site features.

b. Cookies and Login Preferences

Cookies can also make your use of the web easier by saving language and login preferences. We use persistent cookies to store your language preference and login information so that you will be “remembered” by our server. You will not have to go through the “splash page” and enter your login id each time you visit the site. You can indicate at initial registration whether you wish to have your computer “remembered” by checking the “Remember Me” box at sign-up. You will have to re-input your login information each time if you do not choose this option.

With most internet browsers, you can erase cookies from your hard drive, block all cookies or receive a warning before a cookie is used. Please refer to your browser instructions or help screen to learn more about these functions.
