Third Party Disclosure

Do we disclose the information we collect to Third Parties ?

.

We do not sell personal information to other companies or individuals. However, it is often necessary for us to use personal information in cooperation with other advertising platforms to identify the devices and websites we serve advertising to. We only work with respected partners who follow rigorous privacy and data compliance standards in accordance with the Digital Advertising Alliance principles.

Most commonly these partners include Facebook, Google, Amazon, LiveRamp, SimpliFi and LiveIntent. All of these and our other partners participate in AdChoices, allowing you to manage and should you choose, prevent your personal data from being utilized by us to serve targeted advertising. To manage your settings and learn more about AdChoices, visit https://youradchoices.com/.

We engage in this practice because :

We believe that consumers benefit when the advertising they see online is reflective of their interests and values. We also believe that high quality publishers who provide value to their readers deserve to be rewarded and sustained by premium relevant advertising. Our services and data allow healthcare educational institutions, employers, product and pharmaceutical companies and other related advertisers reach the specific HCPs who are most likely to benefit from seeing these ads.

Third party links

We therefore have no responsibility or liability for the content and activities of these linked sites. Nonetheless, we seek to protect the integrity of our site and welcome any feedback about these sites.

Other information we may have would relate to your specialty (as a health care provider), professional work experience and work history. If you are not a recently practicing healthcare practitioner it is highly unlikely we have any of your personal information.

We do not specifically market to children under 13.
