Introduction
To further our mission of making reliable HITECH / HIPAA information freely available to the public, HIPAA Survival Guide only accepts advertising and sponsorship under strict guidelines. HIPAA Survival Guide will refuse any advertisement that we believe is incompatible with our mission. The presence of an ad on our site ("Website" or "Site") located on the Internet at www.hipaasurvivalguide.com, does not imply endorsement of the advertised company or product. Advertisers and sponsors must not make unsubstantiated product and/or services claims or suggest that HIPAA Survival Guide has endorsed same.
HIPAA Survival Guide maintains a distinct separation between advertising content and editorial content. All advertising content on our Website is either clearly labeled as such or can reasonably be inferred from the context in which it displays. Sponsored areas of our Site are labeled accordingly, and the sponsoring organizations are clearly identified. HIPAA Survival Guide currently only offers banner advertising priced at an agreed to CPM and selective corporate sponsorships. The minimum number of banner impressions per order is 5K on a monthly basis.

In order to participate in HIPAA Survival Guide's advertising/sponsorship program, a prospective advertiser must agree to HIPAA Survival Guide's general terms and conditions and sign a subsequent "letter agreement" that contains the specific pricing, technical specifications, duration and payment terms of the offer.
Permitted Advertisements
In general, HIPAA Survival Guide will deem an advertisement appropriate if the Advertiser provides goods and/or services that may be of interest to HIPAA Survival Guide's audience. HIPAA Survival Guide's audience is comprised of health care providers and other health care industry stakeholders interested in staying current with the HITECH Act, its implications with respect to the HIPAA regulations, and challenges related to a health care provider's implementation of electronic health records ("EHRs"). HIPAA Survival Guide, in its sole discretion, will decide which advertisements are allowed on our Website.
