Privacy Statement

BJC Employee Assistance Program has created this statement to demonstrate its commitment to your privacy. This statement explains BJCEAP’s information-gathering and dissemination practices for this website.

A typical visit to our website does not require a user to submit personal information. However, if you send us an e-mail, with your contact information, we will inquire if we may send information to you. If you reply in the affirmative, your name and contact information will be entered into a database for potential use in a future mailing or e-mail distribution.

Information you submit may be routinely shared with our parent organization, BJC HealthCare as they often distribute our materials, or with the Washington University School of Medicine if you are looking for a physician referral. Other than these two organizations, we will only forward your personal information to organizations working on our behalf. We urge you not to provide any confidential information about you or your health to us via electronic communication. If you do so, it is at your own risk. Although we attempt to maintain our computer network in a secure manner to protect the content of your messages, we cannot provide absolute assurance that the contents of your e-mail will not become accessible to individuals or entities that are not authorized to access your information.

The Cookie

It is our desire that each on-line visitor experience an optimum experience in finding medical information and learning about BJCEAP services. In working toward that goal, we count our visitors and keep track of where our visitors go throughout the website. To do this, we must use software called a "cookie." The "cookie" maintains numbers in aggregate form, and does not obtain personal information about our visitors. This information helps us know what sections of our website are visited frequently, so we can enhance those sections and ensure they’re up-to-date. None of the research we conduct is shared with companies unrelated to BJCEAP or BJC HealthCare.
