Activa™ Benefit Services recognizes how important privacy protection is, especially regarding the health care information you receive both at your physician's office and on the Internet. Activa™ Benefit Services shares these concerns with you. Together, we can protect your privacy. We've installed a number of safeguards to ensure the utmost protection:

Security: Employees (plan participants), Employers and Providers use special User IDs and Passwords that are only known by them to access our site. The User ID and Password are not stored on a user's hard drive.

Adherence to Standards: Activa™ Benefit Services complies with select industry standards for protecting Internet users' privacy. For specific information on these standards, please see our Frequently Asked Security Questions page. Activa™ Benefit Services internally reviews our compliance with these standards on a periodic basis.

Login Protection: Activa™ Benefit Services issues a unique User ID to each Plan Participant, Employer and Service Provider that provides access to their specific part of the web site. Initial passwords are also assigned that must be changed the first time a users logs in. On subsequent log ins, each user has the option to change their password. Like your ATM card number and PIN, never share your User ID and Password with anyone who you do not want accessing your information.

Activa™ Benefit Services Staff Training and Discipline: To ensure that our privacy mandates are met by all ABS employees, all ABS employees are versed in the importance of privacy in all aspects of their work.

Security Technology: Activa™ Benefit Services utilizes leading-edge technology to protect your data from outside parties. We continually test and update these technical safeguards to ensure maximum protection of your personal information. For specific information on these standards, please see our Frequently Asked Security Questions page.

Information  Sales: Activa™ Benefit Services relies on health industry clients to generate revenue so that our site can remain free for its users. We never provide our clients with information that could be used to identify you personally. The data that we provide to our clients is always presented in an aggregate manner. This means that neither the client nor Activa™ Benefit Services can identify any individual within that collective data. For example, we might provide the following type of data to our clients: "70 percent of ABS plan participants have seen a physician for a preventative care visit in the past year."
