Privacy Policy

Overview

glp1medications.org is an independent educational website about GLP-1 medications. We are not a pharmacy, clinical service, or insurer. We do not sell or dispense medications. We do not process medical records, health insurance claims, or payment information directly on this site.

Like most websites, this site may collect certain information automatically — such as browser type, pages visited, and approximate location — through analytics tools and server logs. We may also receive information you voluntarily provide through contact forms or email. This policy describes those practices.

When you click a link to a third-party telehealth provider on this site, you leave glp1medications.org and enter that provider's own website, which has its own privacy policy and data practices. We are not responsible for how those providers handle your data.

Information We May Collect

Information collected automatically

When you visit this site, certain information may be collected automatically by analytics software, server logs, or cookies. This may include:

• Pages visited and time spent on each page
• The page you came from (referrer URL)
• Browser type, operating system, and device type
• Approximate geographic location (typically city or region level, derived from IP address)
• IP address (which may be anonymized or truncated depending on analytics configuration)
• Search terms used to find this site (where reported by the search engine)

This information is used in aggregate to understand how users find and use the site, and to improve content and structure. It is not used to identify individual users.

Information you provide voluntarily

If you contact us by email or through a contact form, we receive the information you include in that message — typically your name (if provided), your email address, and the content of your message. We do not collect more than you send us.

We do not operate user accounts, membership systems, newsletter subscriptions, or payment forms on this site.

Do Not Send Sensitive Medical Information

How We Use Information

Information collected on this site is used for the following purposes:

• Analytics and site improvement: Aggregate traffic data helps us understand which content is useful, how users navigate the site, and where content may need updating.
• Responding to inquiries: When you email us or submit a contact form, we use your information to respond to your message and maintain editorial correspondence records.
• Affiliate tracking: When you click a link to a partner telehealth provider, the link may contain tracking parameters that allow the provider to attribute your visit to this site. This is how the site earns referral commissions. See the Affiliate Disclosure for more detail.
• Compliance and security: Server logs and IP addresses may be retained for a limited period to detect and address security issues, spam, or abuse.

We do not use information collected on this site to build advertising profiles, sell data to data brokers, or send marketing emails. We do not share your contact information with third parties for their own marketing purposes.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

This site may use cookies and similar tracking technologies. Cookies are small files stored in your browser that help websites recognize your device across visits or track usage patterns.

Types of cookies that may be present

• Analytics cookies: Placed by analytics services (such as Google Analytics) to measure site traffic, session duration, and page-level engagement. These may use anonymized or aggregated identifiers.
• Affiliate tracking cookies: When you click a link to a partner telehealth provider, that provider may set a cookie or use URL parameters to track your visit. This is standard affiliate tracking practice and is governed by the provider's own cookie policy.
• Functional cookies: Some basic site features may use session cookies that do not persist after you close your browser.

Affiliate Links and Third-Party Providers

Some links on this site point to licensed telehealth providers that offer GLP-1 medication programs. When you click one of these links:

• You leave glp1medications.org and enter the provider's own website.
• The link may contain tracking parameters that allow the provider to identify your visit as coming from this site, for the purpose of paying a referral commission.
• The provider's own privacy policy governs what data they collect from you, how they store it, and how they use it — including any health or payment information you submit through their intake process.
• glp1medications.org does not receive, store, or process any health information, payment information, or personal details you submit to a third-party provider.

We link only to licensed telehealth providers that require medical screening and issue prescriptions only when clinically appropriate. However, we are not responsible for the data practices of those providers. Read their privacy policies before submitting any personal or health information through their platforms.

When Information May Be Shared

We do not sell personal information. We do not share your contact information with third parties for marketing purposes. Information may be disclosed in the following limited circumstances:

• Service providers: We may use third-party tools (such as analytics platforms, email services, or hosting providers) that process data on our behalf. These providers are engaged only for purposes consistent with this policy.
• Legal requirements: We may disclose information if required to do so by law, legal process, or a valid government request.
• Protection of rights: We may disclose information to protect the security or integrity of the site, or to respond to credible threats of harm.
• Business transfers: If this site is sold, transferred, or merged with another entity, user information may transfer as part of that transaction. We would update this policy to reflect any material change in data practices.

Third-Party Websites

This site contains links to third-party websites, including licensed telehealth providers, FDA.gov, and other official sources. These links are provided for informational purposes.

When you follow a link to a third-party website, you leave glp1medications.org. We have no control over, and accept no responsibility for, the privacy practices or content of those websites. We recommend reading the privacy policy of any third-party website before submitting personal information.

Links to official government sources (such as FDA.gov or CMS.gov) are provided as citations and are not affiliate links.

Data Retention

We retain information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy:

• Analytics data is typically retained according to the retention settings of the analytics platform we use. We aim to keep retention periods as short as is practical for content improvement purposes.
• Contact and correspondence records are retained for as long as they are relevant to an active inquiry or editorial matter. We do not maintain indefinite archives of general email inquiries.
• Server logs are retained for a limited period for security and troubleshooting purposes.

We do not retain sensitive personal information beyond the purpose for which it was received.

Your Choices

You have the following options regarding information on this site:

• Cookies: You can block or delete cookies through your browser settings. This will not prevent you from reading content on this site.
• Analytics opt-out: If you use a browser extension such as the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on, analytics tracking may be disabled for your sessions.
• Contact records: If you have contacted us and want to know what information we hold or request its deletion, you can email us at [email protected].
• Do Not Track: Some browsers send a "Do Not Track" signal. We do not currently have a mechanism to respond to Do Not Track signals on a per-visitor basis, but we do not use personal data for behavioral advertising.

If you are located in a jurisdiction with specific privacy rights (such as California under CCPA, or the EU/EEA under GDPR), you may have additional rights regarding your personal information. We recommend consulting the relevant regulations or a qualified privacy attorney for guidance on exercising those rights.

Children's Privacy

This site is not directed at children under the age of 13 (or under 16 where applicable under local law). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. GLP-1 medications discussed on this site are prescription drugs approved for use in adult populations — pediatric use contexts are noted only where referenced in official FDA labeling. If you believe a child has submitted personal information to this site, please contact us and we will delete it.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in site technology, data practices, or applicable law. When we make material changes, we will update the effective date at the top of this page. Continued use of this site after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.

We do not guarantee that we will notify individual users of every change. We recommend reviewing this page periodically if you use this site regularly.

Contact Us

If you have questions about this Privacy Policy, want to know what information we hold about you, or want to request deletion of contact information you have submitted, please reach out through our contact page or email [email protected].
