This Cookie Policy explains how Ivologist Weight Loss Center, LLC, doing business as Ivologist ("Company," "we," "us," and "our"), uses cookies and similar technologies to recognize you when you visit our website at https://ivologist.com ("Website"). It explains what these technologies are, why we use them, and your rights to control our use of them.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small data files placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, Ivologist) are called "first-party cookies." Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third-party cookies," which enable third-party features or functionality such as analytics to be provided on or through the website.
How we approach cookies as a healthcare company
Because Ivologist provides healthcare services, we take additional precautions with tracking technologies. Our website analytics are routed through Freshpaint, a healthcare-focused customer data platform that operates under a business associate agreement with us and is configured to prevent the disclosure of identifiable health information to third-party advertising platforms. We do not deploy third-party advertising pixels or session-recording tools on pages where users enter health information.
How can I control cookies?
You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject non-essential cookies. When you first visit our Website, a cookie consent banner (powered by our Freshpaint consent manager) allows you to accept or reject categories of cookies. You can change your preferences at any time using the cookie settings link on our Website. Essential cookies cannot be rejected, as they are strictly necessary to provide the Website. You may also set or amend your web browser controls to accept or refuse cookies; if you reject cookies, some functionality of the Website may be restricted.
Essential cookies
These cookies are strictly necessary to provide the Website and its features, such as maintaining your session and remembering your cookie preferences. They include the cookie that maintains your logged-in session in the patient portal and the cookie that stores your cookie consent preferences.
Analytics cookies
These cookies help us understand, in aggregate, how the Website is used so we can improve it. Analytics data is collected through Freshpaint under a business associate agreement. They include an identifier that distinguishes visitors so we can measure aggregate Website usage.
Do you serve targeted advertising cookies?
No. We do not use third-party advertising cookies on the Website, and we do not share information collected on the Website with advertising platforms for targeted advertising. If this changes, we will update this Cookie Policy and our consent banner before any such cookies are set, and such cookies will fire only with your consent.
What about other tracking technologies, like web beacons?
We may use similar technologies from time to time, such as web beacons in emails, to understand whether an email has been opened and to measure the effectiveness of our communications. These technologies are used consistent with this Cookie Policy and our Privacy Policy.
How often will you update this Cookie Policy?
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes to the cookies we use or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. The date at the top of this Cookie Policy indicates when it was last updated.
