Privacy Policy

Overview

This Privacy Policy describes how Guidant Anesthesia, LLC (“Guidant Anesthesia,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, discloses, and protects information when you visit www.guidantanesthesia.com (the “Site”), submit a form, or otherwise engage our anesthesia staffing and credentialing services.

Information We Collect

We collect information you provide directly to us, including:

• Contact details — name, email address, phone number, job title, and the facility or organization you represent.
• Provider information — for CRNAs and anesthesiologists applying to our network: professional credentials, licensure, board certification, work history, availability, and related qualification details.
• Facility information — staffing needs, coverage requirements, and related operational details you share when requesting staff.
• Communications — the content of messages, forms, and correspondence you send to us.

We also automatically collect limited technical information when you visit the Site, such as your browser type, device information, and pages viewed, through analytics tools (see “Analytics and Cookies” below).

How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

• Respond to inquiries and provide the services you request;
• Match anesthesia providers with facility staffing needs and manage placements;
• Verify provider credentials and support credentialing processes;
• Communicate with you about opportunities, requests, and updates;
• Operate, maintain, and improve the Site and our services; and
• Comply with legal, regulatory, and contractual obligations.

Protected Health Information (HIPAA)

Where Guidant Anesthesia handles protected health information (PHI) in connection with the services we provide, we do so under HIPAA-aligned safeguards and, where applicable, under the terms of a Business Associate Agreement with the covered entity. The Site itself is not intended for the submission of patient health information, and you should not submit patient PHI through our public forms.

How We Share Information

We do not sell your personal information. We may share it with:

• Facilities and providers — as necessary to facilitate staffing, placement, and credentialing;
• Service providers — vendors who support our operations (for example, hosting, email, and analytics) under confidentiality obligations; and
• Legal and compliance — when required by law, regulation, subpoena, or to protect our rights, safety, or the rights and safety of others.

Analytics and Cookies

We use analytics services, including Google Analytics, to understand how visitors use the Site so we can improve it. These tools may set cookies or similar technologies and collect usage data such as pages visited and approximate location. You can control cookies through your browser settings; disabling them may affect some Site functionality.

Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, to maintain our provider and facility relationships, and to meet legal, regulatory, and recordkeeping obligations.

Data Security

We maintain administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect the information we hold. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, however, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Your Choices and Rights

You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of the personal information we hold about you, and you may opt out of marketing communications at any time. To make a request, contact us using the details below. Depending on your location, you may have additional rights under applicable privacy laws.

Children's Privacy

The Site is intended for a professional audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
