This Privacy Policy may change from time to time. If we make a change to this Privacy Policy that we believe materially affects how we process your information or reduces your rights, we will provide you with notice (for example, by email).

In addition, we may provide you with "just-in-time" disclosures or additional information about the data collection, use and sharing practices of specific parts of our Service. These notices may provide more information about our privacy practices, or provide you with additional choices about how we process your personal information.

We collect any information that you provide to us when you contact us for customer service, IT support, or for any other purposes.
• Information from Others. We may also receive personal information, such as your email address, through other users, for example if they have tried to share something with you or tried to refer MedicHire to you.
