Privacy policy
We respect your privacy and are committed to handling personal information responsibly and transparently.
This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect personal information when you visit our website, purchase or download a PharmApplied resource, subscribe to our communications, contact us, or otherwise interact with our online store and services.
By using our website or services, you acknowledge the practices described in this Privacy Policy.
1. Information We Collect
We may collect personal information that you provide directly to us, including your name, email address, billing information, order information, account information, and communications you send to us.
When you make a purchase, payment information may be processed by third-party payment providers. PharmApplied does not receive or store your full payment card number.
We may also automatically receive certain technical information when you use our website, including your IP address, browser type, device information, operating system, referring website, pages viewed, approximate location derived from your IP address, and information collected through cookies or similar technologies.
If you subscribe to PharmApplied emails, we may collect your email address and information about your interactions with those communications, such as whether an email was opened or a link was selected.
2. How We Use Personal Information
We may use personal information to operate and improve PharmApplied, process purchases, provide access to digital products, send order and download information, respond to customer questions, maintain records, prevent fraud or misuse, troubleshoot technical problems, improve website performance, and comply with applicable legal obligations.
With your consent, where required, we may also use your information to send educational content, clinical-learning resources, product announcements, major guide updates, promotions, or other PharmApplied communications.
You may unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time by using the unsubscribe option included in those messages. Transactional communications related to an order or purchased resource may still be sent when necessary.
3. Digital Products and Download Information
Because PharmApplied provides downloadable educational products, we may process information necessary to provide and manage access to those files.
This may include your email address, order number, product purchased, download status, number of download attempts, and related technical information.
This information may be used to provide access to purchased resources, enforce reasonable download limits, restore access when appropriate, investigate unauthorized distribution, and provide updated files when an eligible product is revised.
4. Healthcare and Patient Information
PharmApplied provides educational resources and is not intended to function as a system for storing patient medical records or protected health information.
Please do not submit patient names, dates of birth, medical record numbers, photographs, identifiable case information, or other protected health information through our contact forms, emails, reviews, or other website features.
Clinical cases shared in connection with educational questions should be fully de-identified before being submitted to PharmApplied.
5. When We May Disclose Information
PharmApplied does not sell customer contact lists or personal information to advertisers.
We may disclose personal information to third-party providers that assist with functions such as payment processing, digital product delivery, website operations, email communications, analytics, fraud prevention, or customer support.
We may also disclose information when reasonably necessary to comply with applicable law, respond to lawful requests, protect our legal rights, investigate fraud or security concerns, enforce our terms, or protect customers and others.
If PharmApplied is involved in a merger, acquisition, restructuring, financing, or sale of business assets, relevant information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to applicable law.
6. Cookies and Similar Technologies
Our website may use cookies, pixels, local storage, and similar technologies.
These technologies may help the website remember preferences, maintain shopping-cart functionality, process purchases, understand website traffic, improve performance, prevent fraud, and measure the effectiveness of communications or marketing.
Where required by applicable law, visitors may be offered choices regarding non-essential cookies or similar technologies.
Your browser may also allow you to block or delete certain cookies, although doing so may affect some website functionality.
7. Analytics
We may use analytics tools to understand how visitors interact with PharmApplied.
Analytics information may include pages viewed, traffic sources, device information, approximate geographic information, website interactions, and purchasing activity.
We may use this information to understand customer interests better, improve our educational resources, identify technical issues, and enhance the website experience.
8. Email Communications
If you voluntarily join the PharmApplied mailing list, we may send educational content, clinical pearls, new resource announcements, product updates, promotions, or notifications of major guideline updates.
You may unsubscribe from marketing communications at any time.
Unsubscribing from marketing communications does not prevent us from sending necessary communications about purchases, downloads, customer service requests, security matters, or material changes affecting products you purchased.
9. Data Retention
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy.
This may include providing purchased products, maintaining business and financial records, resolving disputes, preventing fraud, enforcing agreements, and satisfying applicable legal obligations.
Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and applicable requirements.
10. Data Security
We use reasonable administrative, organizational, and technical safeguards intended to protect personal information.
However, no website, electronic transmission, database, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
You should use appropriate precautions when communicating information online and should not send sensitive patient or healthcare information through PharmApplied.
11. Your Privacy Rights
Depending on where you live, applicable privacy law may provide certain rights regarding your personal information.
These may include the right to:
- Request access to personal information maintained about you
- Request correction of inaccurate information
- Request deletion of certain personal information
- Receive certain information about how your data is used or disclosed
- Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent
- Exercise other privacy choices available under applicable law
Certain rights may be subject to exceptions, identity verification, or other legal requirements.
We will not discriminate against you for exercising privacy rights provided by applicable law.
12. California and Other U.S. State Privacy Rights
Residents of California and certain other U.S. states may have additional privacy rights under applicable state law.
Depending on whether a particular law applies to PharmApplied, eligible consumers may have rights concerning access, correction, deletion, portability, or certain uses or disclosures of personal information.
Additional privacy choices or opt-out mechanisms may be provided when required by applicable law.

If you access our services from another country, your information may be processed or stored in the United States or other jurisdictions in which our technology or service providers operate.
Privacy and data-protection laws in those jurisdictions may differ from those in your country.
Where required, appropriate measures may be used to support lawful international transfers of personal information.
