ARK may retain website information only as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this notice, to meet legal obligations, resolve disputes, and support the operation of its website and services. When information is shared with service providers, it may be used to help operate the website, communications, and related services.

HIPAA Notice of Privacy Practices
Understanding Your Privacy Rights
This section provides general information about how protected health information may be used or disclosed and about privacy rights that may apply to patients under HIPAA and other applicable law.
For treatment, payment, and healthcare operations, applicable law may permit the use or disclosure of protected health information without a written authorization. Other uses and disclosures may require written authorization, and authorization may be revoked in writing when permitted by law.
Patients may have rights to inspect and obtain copies of records, request amendments, receive an accounting of certain disclosures, request restrictions, request confidential communications, receive notice of a breach of unsecured protected health information, and obtain a paper copy of an approved notice. The availability and handling of these rights depend on ARK’s confirmed status, records, operations, and applicable law.
Patients may complain to ARK and to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office for Civil Rights if they believe their privacy rights have been violated. Contact information for the Office for Civil Rights is available at hhs.gov/ocr.
No person will be retaliated against for filing a complaint. Additional protections may apply under federal and state law.
