Sharing information
We do not share, sell or trade any personally identifiable information you give us to other organizations. We may give non-personally identifiable information, such as the number of visitors to our Web site or the number of visitors who view different pages, to those organizations from which we obtain Web content and/or Web benchmarking services.
Security
The Web site has security measures in place to protect against the loss, misuse, or alteration of the information under Interpreterverse’s control.
The security rule doesn’t specify what technology could be used as long as our organization safeguards patient health and private information as a policy.
Interpreterverse does not capture or store any Protected Health Information (abbreviated as PHI) so that’s a great way to be compliant and this is why we ask interpreters to destroy their notes when they are done with an interpretation session that way we are not storing any PHI. All our interpreters are HIPAA-certified.
