Cookie Technology

Our site uses a personalizing device, called a "cookie," that is commonly used on the Internet. A cookie is a small data file that a website puts on your hard drive when you visit. It generally contains personal information that you as a user have knowingly provided, such as a user name and password or the selections you made when you customized a site. It's important to note that a cookie cannot read any data from your hard drive. It cannot install a virus or read cookie files created by other sites. Cookies make a site more useful to you. Cookies also help us track how and when a web page is visited. This information guides us in site refinements that benefit you and other visitors.

Links to Other Sites

The QHP website contains links to other sites for your convenience. Although we try to link only to sites that share our high standards and respect for privacy, we cannot guarantee or be held responsible for their content or privacy practices. The fact that we have included such links does not constitute an endorsement by us of any of these web sites. As with any site, we suggest you review its privacy policy before you enter any personal information.

Inappropriate Behavior

Although the web is an open medium, QHP expects the use of its sites to be within certain acceptable community standards. Therefore, users are prohibited from posting or transmitting any unlawful, threatening, libelous, defamatory, obscene, inflammatory, pornographic or profane material or any material that could constitute or encourage conduct that would be considered a criminal offense, give rise to civil liability or would otherwise violate the law. QHP will fully cooperate with any law enforcement authorities or court order requesting or directing QHP to disclose the identity of anyone posting any such inappropriate information or materials.

QHP reserves the right to alter or delete material from its site at any time without warning.
