Security/How Your Personally Identifiable Information Is Protected: Security for all personally identifiable information is fundamental to us.

Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job (for example, customer service) are granted access to personally identifiable information. The computers/servers in which we store personally identifiable information are kept in a secure environment. We continually review all such measures and update them when appropriate. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information, the Company cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit via the internet. By sending any such information to Company, you accept that you do so at your own risk

It is out of our highest desire for your best interests that we clearly state that we do not serve or accept as a client or a customer anyone who is being prescribed or is taking antipsychotic medications.
