The policy of Applied Behavioral Health Policy (ABHP) is to protect the privacy of all visitors to our Web site. This online privacy statement is intended to inform you of what information this site collects, the ways that information is used and the how we protect any information you choose to provide to us.
There are four types of information that this site may collect during your visit: network traffic logs, Web visit logs, cookies, and information voluntarily provided by you.
Network Traffic Logs
In the course of ensuring network security and consistent service for all users, ABHP employs software programs to do such things as monitor network traffic, identify unauthorized access or access to nonpublic information, detect computer viruses and other software that might damage ABHP computers or the network. In the course of such monitoring, these programs may detect such information as e-mail headers, addresses from network packets, and other information. Information from these activities is used only for the purpose of maintaining the security and performance of ABHP network and computer systems. Personally identifiable information from these activities is not released to third parties without your written consent unless required by law.

Some pages may not function properly if the cookies are turned off. Unless otherwise posted on this site, we will not store data, other than for these two purposes, in cookies.
