PRIVACY AND SECURITY
Protecting your personal information is important to Willamette Dental Group. Whether you are an insured member, patient or just visiting this web site (“Site”), we are committed to protecting the information you provide through this Site.

Security Practices
Willamette Dental Group attempts to protect online information according to applicable laws and established company security standards and practices. We have security measures in place to protect against the loss, misuse, or alteration of information under our control, and we continually evaluate new technologies for safeguarding your information. However, we cannot guarantee the confidentiality or security of electronic transmissions via the Internet due to the potential use of un-secure computers and links, and data may be lost or intercepted by unauthorized parties during such transmission. If you wish to submit personal or confidential information by a more secure means of communication, please advise by contacting: infowillamettedental.com
Sensitive information you provide to us online is protected by encryption technology. Encryption technology is the leading security protocol for data transfer on the Internet. This technology encrypts your account information as it moves between your PC’s browser and Willamette Dental Group’s computer systems. When information is encrypted, it is virtually impossible for another entity other than Willamette Dental Group to decrypt it. This secure transmission helps protect the safety and confidentiality of your information when you interact with Willamette Dental Group online.

Please use your best judgment when sending information via the Internet to an e-mail address. E-mail sent via the Internet may pass through private and public networks with varying levels of security. Some networks may have taken steps to secure e-mail transmissions while others have not, thereby compromising the privacy and integrity of e-mail.
Once your e-mail is received, Willamette Dental Group will securely save the content of your e-mail and your e-mail address so we can efficiently respond to questions you might have. In the event you choose to contact us electronically, Willamette Dental Group will assume that you consent to responsive e-mail.
