Website Privacy Policy
Effective as of May 29, 2026.
This Website Privacy Policy applies to personal information collected through our public Website and other public online properties that link to it. It covers Mindoula Health, Inc., Caremind, and our subsidiaries and affiliates ("Mindoula," "we," "us" or "our"). It does not apply to information collected through our member portal, patient-facing applications, or in the course of providing care services. If information you provide through the public Website is or becomes protected health information (PHI) under HIPAA, our Notice of Privacy Practices governs our use and disclosure of that PHI. If there is a conflict between this Website Privacy Policy and the Notice of Privacy Practices with respect to PHI, the Notice of Privacy Practices controls.
Personal Information We Collect
Information you provide to us or that we generate about you. Personal information you may provide to us through the Website or otherwise or that we may generate about you includes:
- Contact information, such as your first and last name, salutation, email address, mailing addresses, phone number and, as applicable, relevant professional contact information.
- Demographic data, such as your city, state, country of residence, and postal code.
- Communications data based on our exchanges with you, including when you contact us through the Website, communicate with us via chat features, social media, or otherwise.
- Marketing data, such as your preferences for receiving our marketing communications and details about your engagement with them.
- Other data not specifically listed here, which we will use as described in this Privacy Policy or as otherwise disclosed at the time of collection.
Please do not use public website forms, email links, chat features, or social media pages to submit urgent medical information, request emergency help, or communicate with your care team about time-sensitive treatment issues. If you are experiencing an emergency, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room. If you are a Mindoula member, use the member portal or the contact method provided by your care team for care-related communications.
If you choose to provide health-related information through our public website, we use it only to respond to or route your inquiry, provide information you request, evaluate or facilitate your interest in Mindoula services, comply with law, and protect rights, safety, security, and integrity. To the extent health-related information submitted through the public website is not PHI governed by our Notice of Privacy Practices, we treat it as sensitive information and do not sell it or use it for targeted advertising.
Third-party sources. We may combine personal information we receive from you with personal information falling within one of the categories identified above that we obtain from other sources, such as:
- Public sources, such as government agencies, public records, social media platforms, and other publicly available sources.
- Data providers, such as information services and data licensors.
- Service providers that provide services on our behalf or help us operate the Website or our business.
- Business transaction partners. We may receive personal information in connection with an actual or prospective business transaction. For example, we may receive your personal information from an entity we acquire or are acquired by, a successor, or assignee or any party involved in a business transaction such as a merger, acquisition, sale of assets, or similar transaction, and/or in the context of an insolvency, bankruptcy, or receivership.
Automatic data collection. We, our service providers, and our business partners may automatically log information about you, your computer or mobile device, and your interaction over time with the Website, our communications and other online services, such as:

- Online activity data, such as pages or screens you viewed, how long you spent on a page or screen, the website you visited before browsing to the Website, navigation paths between pages or screens, information about your activity on a page or screen, access times and duration of access, and whether you have opened our emails or clicked links within them.
- Communication interaction data such as your interactions with our email, text or other communications (e.g., whether you open and/or forward emails) – we may do this through use of pixel tags (which are also known as clear GIFs), which may be embedded invisibly in our emails.

Tracking and Other Technologies
Cookies and similar technologies. Some of the automatic data collection described above is facilitated by the following technologies:
- Cookies are small text files that websites store on user devices and that allow web servers to record users' web browsing activities and remember their submissions, preferences, and login status as they navigate a site. We may use the following categories of cookies:
- Strictly Necessary Cookies: Required for the website to function. These cannot be disabled. Examples: session management, security tokens.
- Analytics Cookies: Help us understand how visitors use our Website. Example: Google Analytics.
- Functional Cookies: Enable enhanced functionality and personalization. Examples: language preferences, region selection.

- Web beacons, also known as pixel tags or clear GIFs, are used to demonstrate that a webpage or email was accessed or opened, or that certain content was viewed or clicked.
We design our use of analytics and tracking technologies to avoid disclosing PHI or health-related information submitted through public Website forms to third-party advertising or analytics vendors unless permitted by applicable law and, where required, supported by appropriate contractual safeguards. We do not permit third-party analytics or advertising vendors to use PHI or health-related Website submissions for their own advertising, profiling, model training, or independent commercial purposes.
