| When a doctor or patient gives us credit or other personal information; at any time, the doctor or patient may inquire as to how we will use the information. |

|
| If a doctor or a patient suspects that anyone at Artistic Dental Design is involved in a violation of their privacy, we insist that the doctor or patient contact us. Any such report would be taken seriously and investigated thoroughly in compliance with applicable Federal law/s. |
