The type and amount of health information we collect on you will depend on how you choose to interact with ACS. For instance, if you are a patient or caregiver contacting us for assistance, we will need different health information to assist you than if you are using our website to gather or search for information on cancer-related topics, donate to ACS, or register to participate in an event. Relatedly, you may provide certain health information depending on which features you use that are available on the Services, including those powered by artificial intelligence technology.</p> <p>ACS collects health information that identifies you as an individual or information which is linked or linkable to you as an individual, collectively referred to throughout this Health Privacy Statement as “Health Information.”</p> <p><b>Cancer and Symptom Information.</b> We may request Health Information such as your type of cancer, date of diagnosis, stage, or current treatment, if applicable, such as when you contact ACS seeking cancer information or requesting support from ACS. If you register to participate in an ACS event, we may ask you about your relationship to cancer so that we can let you know about special activities for caregivers and survivors. <a name="_Hlk178004327" id="_Hlk178004327"></a>We may make available features that provide information about cancer, depending on the Health Information you submit to the feature. For example, you may use features powered by artificial intelligence technology that generate tailored information about cancer or that assess potential symptoms.  If you participate in peer-to-peer volunteer programs or contribute to the Cancer Survivor’s Network, we may have access to more detailed Health Information. This Health Information may be transmitted electronically for the uses and/or disclosures described in this Health Privacy Statement. We may request more detailed information if you enroll in a research cohort.</p> <p><b>Social Media Information.</b> We may collect Health Information that you voluntarily choose to provide on our social media pages.</p> <p><b>Internet Activity</b>. We may collect web server traffic activity and browsing history on our cancer information pages which may be tied to your Internet Protocol address or device type. We use this information to measure engagement on the Sites, the effectiveness of our campaigns and to determine areas of interest of our constituency. It is possible that your health status could be inferred from this information, but ACS does not tie other identifiable information to your search. You can read more about the Internet Activity data we collect below in the <a href="https://www.cancer.org/about-us/policies/health-privacy-policy.html#_OTHER_INFORMATION_COLLECTED">Internet Activity</a> section below.</p> <h2><a name="HOWWECOLLECT" id="HOWWECOLLECT"></a><b>How We Collect Health Information About You</b></h2> <p>ACS and its service providers may collect Health Information in a variety of instances. For example, we may collect information about you in the following circumstances:</p> <p><b>Requests for Information and Resources.</b> ACS’s National Cancer Information Center (“NCIC”) is available to answer your questions 24/7, 365 days a year. When you contact NCIC or your local ACS office for information and resources, we will collect the Health Information you provide to assist you and may record your call or maintain a transcript of the chat for training and quality assurance purposes. The Health Information collected will depend on what you voluntarily provide to ACS.</p> <p><b>Patient Support Services.</b> ACS offers many free or reduced-cost programs and services to help cancer patients and their caregivers manage cancer treatment and recovery and find the emotional support they need. For example, ACS provides transportation and lodging assistance to help cancer patients overcome barriers to treatment. If you contact ACS to utilize these support services, we may ask you for information about your referring physician or treatment facility, limited Health Information such as cancer type and diagnosis date. The specific Health Information requested (or degree of specificity required) may vary depending on the type of program/service you are seeking.</p> <p><b>Site and App Use. </b>We may collect Health Information through your use of the Sites and Apps, including ACS’s online public forums, discussion boards, or chat rooms. Please note that any information you post within our public forums will become public and may be read, collected, and used by anyone. Please exercise caution when deciding whether to disclose your Health Information in public forums.</p> <p>If you use the ACS CARES App, we will collect the Health Information you share to provide information and services tailored to your needs or interests. You are not required to provide sensitive information to use the ACS CARES App.</p> <p><b>Volunteer Participation. </b>If you volunteer for ACS to provide peer-to-peer support, we will collect Health Information related to your specific cancer experience (cancer type, treatment type, etc.) This data is used to help cancer patients select peer support which is most similar to their own cancer experience.</p> <p><b>Research Participation. </b>If you enroll in an ACS research study, we may collect information from you related to the study or studies, which may include detailed health information and blood, buccal, oral, gut, and/or tumor samples. Research participant data is maintained in a secure, restricted environment and is accessed only for research purposes. If you are a participant in an American Cancer Society study, please contact cps3&#64;cancer.org or thevoices&#64;cancer.org for any inquiries regarding your study-related data.”</p> <p><b>Event Registration.</b> If you register to participate in an ACS event, such as Relay For Life® or Making Strides Against Breast Cancer®, we may also ask about your relationship to cancer, but you are not required to provide this information to participate. This information, however, is useful for event purposes and helps us let you know about special activities for caregivers and survivors.</p> <p><b>Health Provider, Health Plan or Other Referral. </b>Your healthcare provider, health plan, or other third-party organization may put you in touch with ACS or, with your consent, provide ACS with information to contact you, if they believe we have information or resources that can assist you with your care. These referrals may occur by phone, fax, or another referral method. If you are referred to ACS by a third party, we may receive limited Health Information to provide relevant resources to you.</p> <p><b>Artificial Intelligence Features. </b>You may provide Health Information to features available through the Services that are powered by artificial intelligence technologies, including technologies provided by our vendors. These features vary in how they use your submitted Health Information, such as to generate tailored information about cancer or to assess potential symptoms.  </p> <p><b>Other Sources. </b>We may receive your Health Information from<b> </b>other sources, including ACS affiliates that you engage with such as the American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network, Inc. (“ACS CAN,” our nonprofit, nonpartisan advocacy affiliate); third-party organizations we collaborate with to provide support services and information to cancer patients and their caregivers.</p> <h2><a name="HOWWEMAY" id="HOWWEMAY"></a><b>How We May Use Your Health Information</b></h2> <p>We and our service providers may use Health Information for the following purposes:</p> <p><b>Mission Delivery and Support Operations. </b>The collection, use and disclosure of your Health Information will be consistent with our mission to eliminate cancer as a major public health problem. These activities include: the direct provision of cancer-related information, patient support programs and services, mission support operations such as data analysis, program improvement, fundraising events, and activities, as well as providing, training, or otherwise supporting artificial intelligence technologies that power features that you directly interact with or request.</p> <p>If you are referred to ACS through your healthcare provider, health plan, or other third-party, we will use and disclose your Health Information as necessary, including electronically, to provide you with the assistance, programs, or services you have requested, as well as program follow up and evaluation. For example, if you need lodging assistance related to your treatment, your healthcare provider may provide your information to ACS so that we can evaluate eligibility and availability for placement in one of ACS’s Hope Lodge facilities.</p> <p><b>Data Analytics</b>. We use data to evaluate engagement levels with our Services. We also perform data analysis and research activities to gain a greater general understanding of cancer, cancer treatment, and the related needs of patients and their caregivers. This analysis can help us improve patient experiences, mission delivery, and support. We do not use automated decision-making without human intervention, including profiling, in a way that produces legal effects concerning you or otherwise significantly affects you. When we perform data analytics, we may also use information that has been anonymized or aggregated in a manner that no longer reveals your specific identity.</p> <p><b>Event Participation. </b>We may use certain information such as cancer type to contact you for the purpose of participating in events that relate directly to your cancer type or status. Any such communication will provide you with the opportunity to opt-out of receiving such future communications.</p> <p><b>Other Business Purposes</b>. We may use Health Information for other business purposes, such as conducting audits, data analysis, recordkeeping, developing new services, enhancing, improving, or modifying our programs and our Services, identifying usage trends, determining the effectiveness of campaigns and mission activities, and updating and expanding our business activities.</p> <p><b>With your consent</b>. In addition to the other uses described in this section, we may also use your Health Information as you expressly authorize us to do so.</p> <h2><a name="WITHWHOMWE" id="WITHWHOMWE"></a><b>With Whom We May Share Your Health Information</b></h2> <p>ACS does not sell identifiable Health Information of its constituents. ACS does share Health Information with its service providers, program volunteers and other third parties that assist ACS in furtherance of its mission; Health Information is only shared with these third-parties pursuant to confidentiality requirements. In furtherance of our mission, your Health Information may be shared with the following categories of third parties: service providers, ACS affiliates, mission collaborators, referring organizations, volunteers, and others with your consent or as required by law.</p> <p><b>Research Cohorts</b></p> <p>We obtain consent from the participants and may share deidentified data using a data sharing agreement which restricts use to research purposes and includes both confidentiality and data protection requirements. We do not share health data for marketing purposes. In the instances that identifiable data are shared (e.g., tumor tissue), we also get IRB approval for those projects.</p> <p><b>Third-Party Service Providers</b>. We may need to share Health Information with third parties that provide operational services on our behalf (such as our data storage infrastructure, data analytics, order fulfillment, auditing, or other services) or that assist ACS in providing you with support and resources.</p> <p><b>ACS Affiliates. </b>We may provide your information to affiliated organizations that share a common mission with ACS, such as ACS CAN (our nonpartisan advocacy organization). Use of your information by ACS CAN is governed by ACS CAN’s Health Privacy Statement available at <a href="http://www.fightcancer.org/">www.fightcancer.org</a>.</p> <p><b>Referring Parties. </b>If you were referred to ACS by your health care provider or other organization, we may also report back to your referring organization regarding your usage of ACS programs and services or to coordinate treatment-related services.</p> <p><b>Mission Collaborators</b>. We may also collaborate with organizations to provide or improve ACS’s services and operations. For example, if you request transportation or lodging assistance, to fulfill your request, we may share your Health Information with organizations that are working with ACS to provide free or discounted transportation or lodging services to our constituents.</p> <p><b>Volunteers.</b> We may share limited Health Information with peer-to-peer volunteers who are assisting ACS and who require the information as part of their duties. Volunteers who are entrusted with Health Information execute confidentiality agreements with ACS prior to receiving any such information.</p> <p><b>Social Media</b>. If you engage with ACS on a public, social media platform, you may be sharing your Health Information with your friends associated with your social media account, to other website users and to your social media account provider, in connection with your social sharing activity. Please note that any information you post within these public forums or social media pages may become public and may be read, collected, and used by anyone. Please exercise caution when deciding whether to disclose your Health Information in these forums.</p> <p><b>Artificial Intelligence Features. </b>If you provide Health Information to features available through the Services that are powered by artificial intelligence technologies provided by our vendors, we may disclose your Health Information to such vendors. If required by applicable law, we will ask for your affirmative consent to disclose your Health Information to the artificial intelligence technology vendor.</p> <p><b>Other Uses or Disclosures of Health Information. </b>We may also use and disclose your Health Information as we believe to be necessary or appropriate: (a) to comply with applicable law, which may include laws outside your country of residence, to respond to requests from public and government authorities, which may include authorities outside your country of residence, to cooperate with law enforcement, or for other legal reasons; (b) to enforce our Terms of Use; (c) to protect our rights, privacy, safety or property, and/or that of our affiliates, you or others; and (d) under circumstances we believe appropriate to coordinate treatment related services with your provider or health plan, or for permissible public health purposes such as cancer surveillance. In addition, ACS may use, disclose, or transfer your information to a third-party in the event of any reorganization, merger, sale, joint venture, assignment, transfer or other disposition of all or any portion of our organization (including in connection with any bankruptcy or similar proceedings).</p> <p><b>Your Consent</b>. In addition to the other disclosures described in this section, we may also disclose your Health Information as you expressly authorize us to do so.</p> <h2><a name="OTHERINFORMATIONCOLLECTED" id="OTHERINFORMATIONCOLLECTED"></a><b>Internet Activity Information</b></h2> <p>ACS may also collect information that does not reveal your specific identity, or which may not directly identify an individual, referred to throughout this Health Privacy Statement as “Internet Activity Information,” including information collected through cookies, pixels, and other technologies.</p> <p><a name="_Hlk499717000" id="_Hlk499717000"></a>Web Server Traffic Pattern Information and Browsing History. We collect standard web server traffic pattern information and your browsing history. General traffic, Site usage, browser information, and length of stay information are collected and stored in log files. To the extent that this information relates to cancer information pages, it could associate you with the health information provided, but ACS does not maintain this information in a manner which identifies you individually.</p> <p><b>Cookies. </b>We use “cookies,” small files that are sent to your web browser and stored on your computer&#39;s hard drive, to enhance your online experience. The cookies collect information about your use of our Services, such as the type of browser you use, your home domain or Internet service provider, your referrer URL (which is the URL for the website that you were viewing prior to visiting the website), how you were directed to the Services, which specific pages you accessed, how long you view each page, the time and date you access our Services and anonymous traffic data.

We may work with third-party service providers to target our advertisements and outreach to you based on your preferences or internet activity information, in certain cases combining data we collect from you through online cookies and other technologies with other de-identified data (such as a hashed, non-readable email or postal address). In addition, we may use third-party service providers to display content-specific advertisements to you after you have left our Sites when you go to other websites. These third-party service providers may use cookies, web beacons or similar technologies to tailor advertisements to interests shown by browsing our Sites or other by visiting other websites.
