We have implemented specific policies and procedures to be in compliance with the current security standards for protecting health information of the federal government’s Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).
Security & Reliability

Daily Backups Site backups are made every day to ensure the reliability of our service and your data.
Simple steps you can take to protect yourself
Though we do everything we can on our end to protect your privacy, there are some easy things you can do yourself to help make sure your information stays secure.
- Create strong passwords that have a combination of Uppercase Characters, Lowercase Characters and Numbers
- Never give out your password over e-mail or based on an e-mail request.
- Make sure to always log out when you’re done using TheCarrot or any other password-protected site. This is especially important if you’re using a public computer.
It’s all about you. We are 100% committed to the privacy and security of your personal information and will continue working to maintain and enhance the security features for TheCarrot.com. If you have any suggestions, comments, or concerns about any aspects of our site, including your privacy rights, please e-mail us by clicking the "Contact" link at the bottom of any page.
