server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer.

of recording your personal information, such as billing addresses, shipping addresses,
and so on. When you return to the same Sierra Community Medical Foundation Web site, the information
you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the Sierra Community Medical Foundation
features that you customized.

accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies
if you prefer. If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to fully experience
the interactive features of the Sierra Community Medical Foundation services or Web sites you visit.
