Please read the following carefully before using the site.
You may be asked to provide personal information (including certain demographic and contact information, including email addresses) during the Chirp registration process, when making appointment requests, during the Chirp login process, or when providing feedback to us about your experiences using Chirp. The information required is noted on each specific form or registration page. Additional questions might be included to help us improve the services we offer.
Iora uses the information you provide to operate Chirp and provide the Chirp service to you.
