When you register, we may request certain business information, including your name, mailing address, and e-mail address.

ASR gathers information about all users collectively, such as what areas users visit most frequently and what services users access most often. ASR automatically logs IP addresses, session sources, and other data that tracks users' access to
www.asrhealthbenefits.com as well as other ASR sites. We analyze these logs in order to understand aggregate user behavior as well as for system performance monitoring. These logs are analyzed for the overall aggregate trends they reveal about our customers, not for individual user behaviors.

The information you supply to ASR will not be given, sold, rented, loaned, or otherwise disclosed to any third parties outside of ASR, except when we have your express permission or under special circumstances, such as when we believe in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to comply with legal process, to enforce the service terms and conditions, or to protect the rights, property, or personal safety of ASR, its customers, or the public.
ASR may use aggregated information to determine the demographics of our users and to distribute statistics and general marketplace information about ASR. These demographics will always represent aggregate information and will never identify a specific user. Certain non-personal information regarding users is recorded by the operation of the Internet servers hosting the ASR sites. ASR may disclose aggregated user statistics in order to describe the service to prospective partners, advertisers, and other third parties, and for other lawful purposes.

ASR also uses this code to enable you to use various services as a member and to visit member-restricted areas of the site without having to log in each time.
If you have set your browser to warn you before accepting cookies, you will receive the warning message with each cookie.
