Privacy Policy

This policy explains what information Doctor Referral Institute collects through this website, how we use it, and the choices you have.

Who we are

Doctor Referral Institute (DRI, we, us) provides referral development, consulting, and training services to healthcare practices. Our website is referralsfordoctors.com. You can reach us at DRI@ReferralsForDoctors.com or (888) 703-9167.

Information we collect

We collect information you give us directly, such as your name, practice name, specialty, city and state, email address, and phone number when you request an evaluation, download a guide, apply for a role, or contact us. We also collect standard technical information when you use the site, such as IP address, browser type, pages visited, and referring links, through cookies and similar technologies.

How we use it

We use your information to respond to your request, schedule and conduct evaluations, deliver guides and resources you asked for, provide and improve our services, send communications you have opted into, and comply with legal obligations. We do not sell your personal information.

HIPAA and protected health information

Doctor Referral Institute provides business services to healthcare practices and does not treat patients. We do not request, and ask that you do not submit, protected health information (PHI) through this website or its forms. Where our services require access to PHI on behalf of a client that is a covered entity, we act as a business associate under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), enter into a Business Associate Agreement with that client, and handle PHI only as permitted by that agreement and applicable law.

How we share information

We share information with service providers who help us operate the website and our business, such as hosting, customer relationship management, email delivery, and analytics providers, under contracts that restrict their use of the data. We may also share information when required by law or to protect our rights. We do not share your information with other practices or third parties for their own marketing.

Cookies and analytics

We use cookies and similar technologies to operate the site and understand how it is used. You can control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect some site features.

You can opt out of marketing emails using the unsubscribe link in any message. You can request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information by emailing DRI@ReferralsForDoctors.com. Residents of states with privacy laws, including California, may have additional rights, which we will honor as required by law.

Data retention and security

We keep personal information for as long as needed to serve the purpose it was collected for and to meet legal obligations. We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect it. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure.

Children

Our website and services are intended for healthcare professionals and businesses. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18.
