At Delta
Dental of New Jersey, your privacy is important
to us. The following information explains
how we collect the information we receive
about you and how we protect that information.
Confidentiality
The personal information we receive through
your use of our web services is not disclosed
to other companies for marketing purposes,
and eligibility and dental benefit information
is released only to authorized individuals.
While our web pages may contain links to
other related websites, Delta Dental of
New Jersey is not responsible for the privacy
practices or the content of such sites.
Security
Our site uses industry standards, such as
firewalls and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)
technology to safeguard the confidentiality
of your personal information. It encrypts
all of your personal information, including
your Social Security number, name, and all
of your plan coverage and benefit information.
This means that your personal information
displayed on our site cannot be read by unauthorized
persons as it travels over the Internet.
Delta Dental of New Jersey uses "cookies" technology
to provide session management. Session management
allows the site to track which page a user
was on after submitting a request for information.
This technology prevents the user from having
to re-enter information each time he or she
looks at a page of output from a request.
We also may use what is known as "client-side page tagging," which uses code on our products pages to write certain information about the page and the visitor to a log when a page is rendered by your web browser. "Tagging" does result in a JavaScript program running on your computer, but it is limited to providing information about the page that you are requesting and the configuration of your browser. It will not read any of your data files, or execute any additional programs. It does not extract any personal information about you, such as your name or address. You can prevent tagging by disabling JavaScript in your browser, but that may prevent you from using all of our website's functions. You can opt-out of receiving behavioral ads if you're uncomfortable with the concept. Please follow the instructions here: http://www.networkadvertising.org/managing/opt_out.asp.
There are some things you can do to help
protect the security of your information;
for instance, never give out your password.
Also, remember to sign out of your computer,
so that other people using the same computer
won't have access to your information.
Delta Dental of New Jersey also is a licensee
of the VeriSign program.
This information explains the precautions
we have taken to protect your personal information;
however, Delta Dental is not liable for any
hardware or software problems you may experience
while using the Internet.
