INNER COURAGE reserves the right at all times, in its sole discretion, to edit, refuse to post or to remove any information or materials from the EMDR THERAPIST NETWORK Web Site, including without limitation to INNER COURAGE's Web Services, regardless of whether such material does or does not violate this Agreement or any INNER COURAGE policies, guidelines, or other codes of conduct which are applicable to the EMDR THERAPIST NETWORK Web Site or in particular to one of INNER COURAGE's Web Services.

INNER COURAGE does not control or endorse the content, messages or information found in any of INNER COURAGE's Web Services, and INNER COURAGE specifically disclaims any liability with regard to INNER COURAGE's Web Services. INNER COURAGE does not endorse or otherwise verify the accuracy, truthfulness or reliability of any information provided on INNER COURAGE's Web Services unless it is provided by an authorized INNER COURAGE spokesperson.

5. PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE PATIENT DATA You agree to not use or disclose on the EMDR THERAPIST NETWORK Web Site, including without limitation on INNER COURAGE's Web Services, any health information that identifies, or with respect to which a reasonable basis exists to believe that the information can be used to identify, an individual. Health information identifies an individual or creates a reasonable basis to identify an individual if: (1) it is created by or received from a health care provider, health plan, employer or health care clearinghouse; and (2) it relates to the past, present or future physical or mental health or condition of the individual, the provision of health care to the individual, or the past, present or future payment for the provision of health care to the individual.

Health information that identifies or creates a reasonable basis to identify an individual includes the following types of information: name, address (including street address, city, county, zip code, or equivalent geocodes), names of relatives and employers, birth date, telephone and fax numbers, email addresses, social security number, medical record number, health plan beneficiary number, account number, certificate or license number, any vehicle or other device serial number, web URL, Internet Protocol (IP) address, finger or voice prints, photographic images, radiographic images or other diagnostic images that include identifying data, and any other unique identifying number, characteristic or code (whether generally available in the public realm or not) that you have reason to believe may be available to an anticipated recipient of information. 
Health information may be used or disclosed without written individual authorization only in very narrow circumstances, including where it has been de-identified by eliminating the specified identifying information listed above and You have no reason to believe that a reasonably anticipated recipient could use the remaining information either alone or in combination with other information to identify the individual. You agree that You shall be solely responsible for any such determination and agree to indemnify INNER COURAGE for the consequences of such determination and for any information posted by You on the EMDR THERAPIST NETWORK Web Site, including without limitation on INNER COURAGE's Web Services, should it identify or should the subject of such information believe it identifies such individual.
