At FamilyMeds, ensuring the privacy and protection of our users' personal and sensitive data is one of our utmost priorities. We collect personal data to provide a customized experience and improve our services offered on the website. The types of data collected include but are not limited to personal identification information such as names, email addresses, and potentially sensitive medical information. We collect this data through consent when users interact with our site, including registration and subscription for updates or newsletters. FamilyMeds adheres strictly to U.S. legal frameworks related to personal data protection and ensures transparency in data collection practices. All collected data is stored securely, employing up-to-date technology that safeguards against unauthorized access. Regular audits ensure compliance with applicable data protection regulations to avoid risks of data breaches. In all data collection activities, we maintain a commitment to transparency and user control over their personal information.
FamilyMeds uses the collected data to improve user experience by tailoring content and services to meet our users’ needs and expectations. This data may be used to provide personalized medication guides, supplement recommendations, and health tips tailored to specific family needs. We might share some personal data with third-party partners only as necessary, and such sharing is governed by strict contractual agreements that mandate the protection of the data shared. For instance, shared data may be used by third-party companies that provide technical support or analytics services. However, under no circumstances do we sell email addresses or any personal data to third-party advertisers or marketers. We ensure that all data sharing complies with applicable privacy laws and is subject to user's explicit consent where applicable. Any changes to how we utilize user data, including updates required by regulatory changes or business needs, will be communicated promptly.
Securing our users' personal information is crucial to our operational practices. We employ a variety of technical and administrative security measures to safeguard our users’ data from unauthorized access or disclosure. Our website utilizes encryption protocols such as SSL to ensure that any data transmission between the user and our servers remains confidential and tamper-proof. Additionally, we limit access to collected data to only those employees or partners who are essential to provide our services, with strict access controls in place. Regular security training and awareness programs are conducted for our employees to ensure a high level of data protection standards. In the event of any data breach or security incident, our incident response protocol is activated immediately, and affected users are notified as required by applicable regulations. We are committed to continually enhancing our security measures in line with technological advancements to protect our users' data effectively.
FamilyMeds retains personal data for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, as well as to comply with applicable legal requirements. The retention period of data is contingent upon the nature of the information, its operational necessity, and legal obligations that may dictate retention timelines. Upon expiry of the retention period or upon user request, personal data is securely deleted or anonymized to prevent identification. We encourage users to regularly review and update their personal data provided on our platform to ensure accuracy. Users have the right to request access to, rectification or deletion of their personal data, subject to limitations by relevant legal requirements. Our contact for such requests is [email protected], through which we process these requests promptly and in accordance with applicable laws.

Our services are not designed to attract or engage children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under this age without verifiable parental consent. If we become aware that we have inadvertently collected personal information from a child under 13 without proper consent, we take immediate steps to delete such information from our records.
