Our company is HIPAA compliant

HIPAA compliance ensures healthcare organizations protect patient data, like medical

records and contact information, according to federal regulations. This includes

implementing physical, administrative, and technical safeguards to prevent unauthorized

access or disclosure of Protected Health Information (PHI). HIPAA compliance also

involves breach notification, ensuring patients are informed if their PHI is compromised.

FACTA (Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act)

The Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act (FACTA) is a U.S. federal law that was passed

in 2003 to amend the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Its primary purpose is to enhance

consumer protections, especially against identity theft. A key feature of FACTA is that it

allows consumers to access their credit reports for free at least once a year from each of

the three major credit bureaus. Additionally, FACTA sets rules for financial institutions and

creditors to prevent and detect identity theft, known as «red flag rules», and requires proper

disposal of identifying information.

The proposed Disposal Rule, which tracks the language of section 216 of the FACT Act,

applies to »any person that, for a business purpose, maintains or otherwise possesses

consumer information, or any compilation of consumer information.
