Privacy Policies

To effectively monitor usage and improve the quality of the WB Web Site, WB reserves the right to gather general information about the use of the WB Web Site by employee, visitor, patient and general public users (collectively, "Users"). The WB may utilize server logs and industry-standard web site statistics software to count the number of Users visiting the WB Web Site and to count the number of views of particular pages, as well as to track other general usage statistics. As a general practice, the WB will not track specific lawful Users' visits to the WB Web Site. At times, the WB may find it necessary or desirable to share with third-parties certain aggregate, anonymous information about overall usage of the WB Web Site, in order to provide general information about our Internet services, sell advertising or establish sponsorships, or other business relationships. The WB will not, however, share any information about specific lawful Users.

If Users voluntarily submit personally-identifiable information to the WB in connection with or through the WB Web Site, such Users should be aware that (i) various individuals at the WB, Wolfson, Baptist and the Foundation may see such information, (ii) the WB may enter such information in its electronic databases to share with Wolfson’s physicians, other healthcare providers and researchers, and (iii) the WB may disclose such information as it determines in good faith is required by law. The WB will not disclose personally-identifiable information about a User's medical condition or interests, unless it determines in good faith that such disclosure is required by law.

Users should be aware that no one, including the WB, can give an absolute assurance that information intended to be maintained as private, whether transmitted via the Internet or otherwise, cannot be accessed inappropriately or unlawfully by third-parties. The WB has, however, taken and will continue (or will direct its Internet-host provider) to take reasonable steps, such as encryption when appropriate, to ensure the secure and safe transmission of information to and from the WB Web Site. If Users are sending the WB information that is very sensitive, or includes diagnosis, medical history or financial information, such Users may want to consider sending such information via postal mail instead. The WB will not distribute or sell the e-mail addresses of Users to any third-party.

Some portions of the WB Web Site may utilize "cookie" technology. Cookies are small data files that are sent by a web site and stored on an individual's computer. Cookies from the WB Web Site may contain information about a specific User's use of the WB Web Site, but are not used to identify or track such User personally. If a User does not want to accept cookies from the WB Web Site, most web browsers have a setting to turn off or warn before the automatic acceptance of cookies. Users should be aware, however, that some portions of the WB Web Site may not function properly if cookies are not accepted.

The WB is providing information and services on the Internet as a benefit to Users. The WB Web Site is intended for mature users. Users under the age of eighteen (18) should not access, use, download from or post to the WB Web Site without the involvement of a parent or guardian.

Purchases, Donations & Charitable Registrations

The Foundation (841 Prudential Dr., Suite 1300 , Jacksonville, Florida, 32207, 904.202.2919) is a 501(c)(3) tax exempt Florida not for profit corporation that performs charitable fundraising on behalf of Baptist. The WB (1325 San Marco Boulevard, Suite 802, Jacksonville, Florida 32207, 904.202.2886), as an extension of the Foundation, performs charitable fundraising on behalf of Wolfson (800 Prudential Drive, Jacksonville, Florida 32207, 904.202.2000), which is also a 501(c)(3) tax exempt Florida not for profit corporation. Donations to the WB are very much appreciated, and the WB acknowledges all gifts on Wolfson’s and the Foundation’s behalf.

A copy of the official charitable organization registration and financial information for the Foundation may be obtained from the State of Florida Division of Consumer Services by calling toll-free within Florida 1-800-HELP FLA (1-800-435-7352). Registration does not imply endorsement, approval or recommendation by the State of Florida. Florida registration no. CH3625. While the WB welcomes contributions from generous individuals and entities domiciled outside of the State of Florida, the WB does not actively solicit contributions outside of the State of Florida, either via an interactive web site or via direct or electronic mailings promoting the WB Web Site.

The WB accepts purchases and/or online donations via an encrypted web form. As part of any such online purchase/donation, the WB collects standard credit card information (i.e., name, card number, card type and expiration date) and keeps a record of the financial transaction in a secured database. Credit card information collected will be used solely to process the purchase/donation. While the WB strives to maintain physical, electronic and administrative safeguards to (i) prevent unauthorized access to information collected, (ii) maintain data security and (iii) ensure the correct use of information collected (for example, the WB collects such information and processes such financial transactions via secure socket layer [“SSL”] encrypted sessions, which conform to the industry standard for securing web-based transactions), neither the WB, Wolfson, Baptist nor the Foundation can guarantee and they do not represent or warrant that the use of the WB’s online purchase/donation form is invulnerable to security breaks and that information submitted thereby is always secure.

According to IRS guidelines, the amount of any deductible contribution to the WB for federal income tax purposes is generally the excess of the amount given over the value of any goods or services provided to the giver by the WB. Online donations to the WB should be tax deductible to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, as no goods or services are provided in consideration of such gifts. Givers are encouraged, however, to consult with their tax advisors as to the deductibility of any donation to the WB. ONLINE PURCHASES OF GOODS OR SERVICES (E.G., FLORIDA FORUM TICKETS OR ART & ANTIQUES SHOW TICKETS) OFFERED BY THE WB, WOLFSON, BAPTIST OR THE FOUNDATION ARE NOT TAX DEDUCTIBLE.

UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFICALLY INDICATED IN WRITING BY THE WB, ALL GOODS OR SERVICES OFFERED BY OR ON BEHALF OF THE WB, WOLFSON, BAPTIST OR THE FOUNDATION VIA THE WB WEB SITE ARE OFFERED “AS IS.” ALL INDIVIDUALS MAKING PURCHASES VIA THE WB WEB SITE (“PURCHASERS”) ACCEPT ALL GOODS AND SERVICES “AS IS” AND ACKNOWLEDGE THAT ALL SALES ARE FINAL. NEITHER THE WB, WOLFSON, BAPTIST NOR THE FOUNDATION MAKES ANY WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WITH RESPECT TO GOODS OR SERVICES OFFERED OR PURCHASED VIA THE WB WEB SITE, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, TITLE, ACCURACY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR ANY OTHER WARRANTY WHATSOEVER, AND THE WB, WOLFSON, BAPTIST AND THE FOUNDATION HEREBY DISCLAIM ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES UNDER THE UNIFORM COMMERCIAL CODE OR OTHER APPLICABLE LAW WITH RESPECT TO GOODS OR SERVICES OFFERED OR PURCHASED VIA THE WB WEB SITE. PURCHASERS ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE LIMITATIONS AND DISCLAIMERS SET FORTH ABOVE ARE REFLECTED IN THE PRICING OF GOODS AND SERVICES OFFERED VIA THE WB WEB SITE AND ARE MATERIAL TO THE WB’S, WOLFSON’S, BAPTIST’S AND THE FOUNDATION’S DECISION TO OFFER AND SELL SUCH GOODS OR SERVICES VIA THE WB WEB SITE, AND ARE, THEREFORE, ENFORCEABLE TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

A User attempting to make a purchase via the WB Web Site who does not receive a confirmation number (in the form of a confirmation page or email) after submitting payment information, or a User who experiences an error message or service interruption after submitting payment information, is responsible for confirming with the WB whether or not the order has been placed. Only such User may be aware of any problems that may occur during the purchase process. The WB will not be responsible for losses (monetary or otherwise) if a User assumes that an order was not placed because such User failed to receive confirmation.

Any ticket purchased via the WB Web Site to any event sponsored by the WB is a revocable license and admission may be refused upon refunding the ticket's face amount. Further, Purchasers acknowledge and agree that the WB and venue representatives may, without refund of any amount paid, refuse admission to, or eject, any person (i) whose conduct the WB or venue representatives deem(s) disorderly, (ii) who uses vulgar or abusive language or (iii) who fails to comply with the venue’s rules. Purchasers agree not to record or transmit, or aid in recording or transmitting, any description, account, picture, or reproduction of any event sponsored by the WB without the WB’s prior written consent. Further, Purchasers grant permission to the WB to utilize their images, likenesses, actions and statements in any live or recorded audio, video, or photographic display or other transmission, exhibition, publication or reproduction made of, or at, a WB sponsored event (regardless of whether before, during or after a presentation, lecture, speech or performance) in any medium or context without further authorization or compensation.
