Info

This policy is under construction and subject to change.

OpenHIE is an open community project organized under the auspices of a consortium of organizations and individuals.  Our challenges and goals are large.  For that reason, we have a very permissive (non) privacy policy that mirrors our public mission.

Please assume that everything you contribute intentionally to OpenHIE is public.  This includes communication activities such as emails on public lists, wikis, online discussions of all sorts, and documentation that you post to this website.  This policy does not cover implementation projects by community members, ministries or partnering organizations. 

Because we follow an academic model that expects mutual personal respect, disclosure of interests and openness of expression, even your OpenHIE profile is public information.  We will not share your personal information with other individuals or organizations without your permission, including public organizations, corporations or individuals, except when applicable by law.  There will be cases where you are invited to share private information for various purposes, and denote that information as such. In those cases, we commit to only disclosing that information without your permission upon receipt of a valid subpoena and following notice from OpenHIE to you.
