Dimer Health uses cookies and other similar technologies (such as pixels and advertising tags) to ensure the quality of your visit. In particular, Dimer Health uses cookies to recognize users and their behaviors across our Services, streamline the login process, maintain a Member’s state while using our Services, and remember user-specific preferences. You can always set your browser not to accept cookies; however, you should be aware that in some cases, some of our Services may not function as a result.
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential in order to enable you to move around the Sites and use their features. Without these cookies, services you have requested, such as remembering your login details or submitted information, cannot be provided.
Performance Cookies
These cookies collect anonymous information on how people use the Sites. For example, we use Google Analytics cookies to help us understand how individuals arrive at the Sites, browse or use the Sites, and highlight areas where we can improve such as navigation and marketing campaigns. The data stored by these cookies never shows personal details from which your individual identity can be established.
Functionality Cookies
These cookies remember choices you make such as the country from which you visit the Sites, language, and search parameters. These can then be used to provide you with an experience more appropriate to your selections and to make the visits more tailored and pleasant. The information these cookies collect may be anonymized and they cannot track your browsing activity on other websites.
Targeting Cookies or Advertising Cookies
These cookies collect information about your browsing habits in order to make advertising more relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an ad as well as help measure the effectiveness of an advertising campaign. The cookies are usually placed by third party advertising networks. They remember the websites you visit and that information is shared with other parties such as advertisers.
We may use different kinds of cookies including session ID cookies and persistent cookies. Session ID cookies are used to personalize your user experience, to determine ways to improve the Sites and the Services we offer. These cookies are deleted when you close your browser session. Persistent cookies are used to collect information such as IP addresses, browser type, Internet Service Provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, platform type, date/time stamp, and number of clicks.
You can change your settings for cookies and similar technologies by clicking on the cookie consent box on the Sites.

You are always free to decline our cookies if your browser permits, but some parts of the Sites may not work properly if you do. Check the “Help” menu of your browser to learn how to change your cookie preferences. To find out more about cookies, visit www.aboutcookies.org.
We may also use technologies similar to cookies, such as Google Analytics and FaceBook/Meta Analytics. We use Google Analytics to collect anonymized statistics in order to improve the Sites and the Services. We do not combine the information collected through the use of Google Analytics with Personal Information. You can selectively disable Google Analytics by installing the opt-out component provided by Google on your browser. You can refer to the following links for more information: Google Analytics and privacy and Google Analytics opt-out browser.
We use Meta Business tools for conversion tracking, which is an analytics service provided by Meta that connects data from the Meta advertising network with actions performed on the Sites.

You can refer to the Meta’s Privacy Policy for more information.
Do Not Track
Many web browsers allow for the use of a “Do Not Track” (“DNT”) function to inform websites that you do not want your online activities tracked. We endeavor to cooperate with DNT signals. When you choose to turn on the DNT setting in your browser, your browser sends a signal to websites, analytics companies, ad networks, plug in providers, and other web services you encounter while browsing to stop tracking your activity. DNT signals are not universal, and in special circumstances, Dimer Health reserves the right to refrain from complying with signals, such as when the signal is indecipherable or incompatible with our processes. Similar to our note about cookies, if you choose to turn on your DNT setting within your browser, some of our Services may not function as a result.
How We Use Your Personal Information
Dimer Health only uses your personal information to provide our services, personalize your experience, comply with security measures as well as the law, or to fulfill business obligations. We may also need to use your personal data to address your own requests for that data, or to comply with your rights.
Providing our Services
- Operate our business (e.g., manage your Account, provide and personalize our Services, and process payments)
- Provide customer support
- Communicate with you, including about the Services and the related services offered by Providers that treat you (e.g., surveys and feedback)
- Provide you with newsletters, articles, alerts, announcements, invitations, and other information about the Services
- Manage our vendor and partner relationships
Personalizing your Experience
- Better design the Sites to improve users’ experiences, both in terms of content and ease of use
- Analyze your interactions with the Services and third parties’ online services so we can tailor our advertising in ways we think will interest you
Marketing
- To conduct outreach and engagement communications to make you aware of the Services
- Dimer Health’s advertising practices align with industry best practices for internet-based advertising. You may choose not to receive future promotional, advertising, or other Service-related notifications from us by opting out of such advertising on your settings. If you choose not to receive notifications, you may still use the Service but you may not receive, or may be unable to use, certain services that involve our interaction with you.
- To communicate with you about new contests, promotions and rewards, upcoming events, and other news about products and services offered by Dimer Health and our selected partners
- Dimer Health reserves the right to show you sponsored content, which may or may not look similar to non-sponsored content, although we will alert you to the nature of the content by adding a tag (such as “sponsored content” or “advertisement”). If you choose to comment, share or similarly engage with sponsored content, your action may be viewable by your connections on your feed as well as by the sponsor. The choice over whether to engage with sponsored content is yours.
- Dimer Health may generate insights based on information that does not identify you or is not personal to you. For example, Dimer Health may monitor usage patterns across our Services in order to make platform improvements or monitor our content in order to ensure that the tools and services we provide are of interest to you (e.g., how often Members watch the videos we offer or click partner content). In such cases, we do not use this data in a way that would identify you. However, if you view or click on an ad on or off our Services, the ad provider may get a signal that someone visited a page which displayed the ad, and they may, through the use of their own mechanisms such as cookies, determine that the user is you. In such instances, we endeavor to ensure that the advertising services that operate on Dimer Health’s platforms comply with this Privacy Policy and, if the advertiser has their own Privacy Policy, we encourage you to consult that policy as well.
- Dimer Health does not share your personal data with any third-party advertisers or ad networks except for in the instance of: (1) hashed IDs, device identifiers, or pseudonymous data (to the extent that they are personal data in some countries); (2) with your separate permission or (3) data already visible to any users of our Services (e.g., profile or public feed data).

- Ensure the security and integrity of the Services

- Comply with applicable legal requirements, such as tax and other government regulations and industry standards, contracts, and law enforcement requests
Use of Anonymous Information. We may use Anonymous Information (as defined below), or disclose it to third party service providers, to provide and improve the Service. We may also disclose Anonymous Information (with or without compensation) to third parties, including advertisers and partners, for purposes including, but not limited to, targeting advertisements. “Anonymous Information” means information which does not enable identification of an individual user, such as aggregated information about use of the Service.
Sharing of Your Personal Information
YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION WILL NOT BE SOLD. Nor will Your Personal Information be licensed or disclosed to unaffiliated third-parties, except in connection with the sale, transfer, merger, consolidation or other transaction involving all or part of our company or as may be permitted under applicable law.

We may disclose your Personal Information to the Providers, pharmacies, or other persons or entities working on your behalf, including without limitation, for arranging appointments or communications, providing telehealth or other health care services as part of the Services, obtaining medication, or for payment or health care operations purposes.
Dimer Health also may share this Personal Information to outside contractors, advisors, auditors, vendors, consultants, or others engaged by Dimer Health to assist in providing financial or operational activities on Dimer Health’s behalf, including technical and processing services and analysis of the Sites’ performance. Additionally, we reserve the right to disclose to third parties non-personally identifiable information collected for any lawful purpose, including but not limited to, aggregate or de-identified data.

Dimer Health may be required or permitted by law to share your Personal Information, without prior notice to you, to maintain, safeguard and/or preserve all the rights and/or property of Dimer Health and perform under demanding conditions in an effort to safeguard the personal safety of users of the Sites and/or the general public, including but not limited to, reporting adverse reactions to certain items, product recalls, preventing disease, and for health research purposes. We may dispute such requests when we believe, in our discretion, they are overbroad, vague or lack proper authority, but we do not promise to challenge every demand.
Finally, Dimer Health may disclose or transfer information, including any Personal Information, to a successor entity (or potential buyer) in connection with a proposed or actual corporate merger, acquisition, consolidation, sale of assets, bankruptcy, or other corporate change. In addition, in the event Dimer Health becomes the subject of an insolvency proceeding, whether voluntary or involuntary, Dimer Health or its liquidator, administrator, receiver, or administrative receiver may sell, license, or otherwise dispose of such information in a transaction approved by the court.

This Privacy Policy does not apply to information collected on external websites that may be linked to or through the Sites.
Cross-Border Transfers
All of the information that you provide to Dimer Health will be stored and processed in the United States.

Retention of Personal Information
Except to the extent prohibited by law, and subject to this Privacy Policy, we will retain and use your Personal Information for as long as it is needed to provide you with the Services you have requested or access to the Sites and the Services, to document our business relationship with you, and as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.
Security Methods
Dimer Health has implemented commercially reasonable physical, technical, and administrative security measures designed to protect your Personal Information, including a secure firewall and use of security infrastructure. As an additional security measure, your Personal Information is also encrypted during transmission using SSL security, an industry standard secure technology. SSL encryption is indicated on your Web browser by the display of a lock or key on the browser status bar. Nonetheless, no such measure is ever 100% effective; therefore, we do not guarantee that your Personal Information will be secure from theft, loss, or unauthorized access or use, and we make no representation as to the reasonableness, efficacy, or appropriateness of the measures we use to safeguard such Personal Information. We encourage you to use caution when using the Internet. This includes not sharing your passwords.
If you have reason to believe that your interaction with us is no longer secure (for example, if you feel that the security of your Account has been compromised), please immediately notify us by contacting us at info@Dimer Health.com
