About Us

The Society for Biopsychosocial Science and Medicine (“APS”, “us”, “we”, or “our”) operates https://thesbsm.org (the “Site”) and is committed to protecting your privacy and developing technology that gives you the most powerful and safe online experience. This Privacy Policy applies to the SBSM website and governs data collection and usage.   This page informs you of our policies regarding the collection, use and disclosure of Personal Information we receive from users of the Site.

Collection of your Personal Information

SBSM collects personally identifiable information, such as your name, primary address, e-mail address, telephone number, birth year, gender, race, ethnicity, discipline and areas of professional interest.

Please keep in mind that if you directly disclose personally identifiable information or personally sensitive data through SBSM discussion boards, interactive forums, or areas of the where information may be provided, that this information may be collected and used by others.

SBSM encourages you to review the privacy statements of websites to which you choose to link from APS, so that you can understand how those websites collect, use and share your information. SBSM is not responsible for the privacy statements or other content on websites outside of the SBSM website.

Use of your Personal Information

SBSM collects and uses your personal information to operate the SBSM website and deliver the services you have requested. SBSM also uses your personally identifiable information to inform you of other products or services available from SBSM and its affiliates.

SBSM may provide your data to third parties to arrange for delivery of certain member benefits such as Psychosomatic Medicine. All third parties are prohibited from using your personal information except to provide these services to APS, and they are required to maintain the confidentiality of your information.

SBSM websites will disclose your personal information, without notice, only if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to: (a) conform to the edicts of the law or comply with legal process served on SBSM or the site; (b) protect and defend the rights or property of APS; and, (c) act under exigent circumstances to protect the personal safety of users of APS, or the public.
