HCMS Group strives to maintain high standards for the protection of privacy over the internet. The personal information that HCMS Group obtains about individual visitors to our website is information that the visitor supplies voluntarily. This means that anyone can visit our site without telling us who they are or revealing information about themselves.

To gauge effectiveness of our site, and allow enhanced access to research findings and education materials, HCMS Group does collect some basic information about our visitors. HCMS Group may collect personally identifiable information (such as name, e-mail address, industry sector, and potential research areas of interest). HCMS Group will not, under circumstances, share this information with any third party.

Visitors may choose to receive updates on new research findings, speaking engagements, press releases, and other areas of interest. Visitors may also choose to receive notification of new postings (Blog and Research Papers). All of these services can be terminated at any time by either party.

Lastly, HCMS Group asks that if authors want to cite or refer to any original research, that the proper group receives proper academic citation. As many of our key findings will be published exclusively through web-based outlets, we ask that visitors consider all materials on the website to be original research, and give credit where credit is due. Please direct all questions regarding citations and authorship here.
