Better Living Compounding Reference requires that you provide your name, email address, a phone number where you can be reached, your DEA number, and a password to register with our service. Below you will find explanations of why we require this information and how we use it.

Part of the registration process is confirming that you are the owner of the email address you provide us. After registering, an email is sent to you containing a link which you must click to confirm that you are the owner of the address. Because we are providing detailed pharmaceutical information, we have a certain degree of liability regarding who sees this information and what they do with it. To ensure we have a way of contacting members of our site by email, we require this step.

Requiring a valid phone number adds to the security of our service. We may choose to contact certain members by phone to confirm their identity and registration. This helps to protect against identity theft and is a deterant for evil-doers.

The DEA number is one step in ensuring that the person registering with our service is a physician. However, because DEA numbers can be forged, we may also choose to contact the registrant by phone or email.

We DO NOT store our members' DEA numbers on our servers. We DO keep a printed copy of each registration, including the DEA number, stored at our pharmacy for the purpose of verifying a registrant's identity and notifying a physician in the event that his/her number has been forged.
