Privacy Policy

How GLP-1 Primer collects, uses, and protects your information.

Last updated: July 2, 2026

TL;DR — What You Need to Know

  • • We collect minimal data: your email (for newsletter/contact) and business details (if you submit a company).
  • • We do not sell your personal data — not now, not ever.
  • • Google AdSense serves ads and uses cookies to personalize them. You can opt out of personalized ads.
  • • We use Google Analytics to understand site usage anonymously.

1. Who We Are

GLP-1 Primer ("we," "us," or "our") is an independent, educational resource dedicated to helping consumers navigate compounded GLP-1 weight loss medications. We operate a provider directory, educational guides, and interactive tools. We are not a medical provider, pharmacy, or telehealth platform. This Privacy Policy explains what data we collect, why we collect it, and how we use it.

2. Information We Collect

We aim to collect only the minimum data needed to operate the site and respond to your requests. Here's a breakdown:

Data You Provide Voluntarily

  • Contact form submissions: Your name, email address, and message content when you reach out via our Contact page.
  • Newsletter sign-ups: Your email address only.
  • Company submissions: If you submit a provider for directory inclusion, we collect business name, contact name, contact email, contact phone, website URL, company description, telehealth provider name, compounding pharmacy partner, pharmacy type, medication type, pricing, subscription model details, pharmacy license number(s), and any additional notes you provide.
  • Reviews and ratings: If you leave a review, we store the display name you provide, your rating, review text, and any experience context you share.
  • Account data: If you register an account, we store your email address and authentication data.

Data Collected Automatically

  • Cookies and tracking technologies: Used by Google AdSense and Google Analytics (see Sections 3 and 4 below).
  • Usage data: Pages visited, time on page, referral source, device type, and approximate location (country/region level) — collected via Google Analytics.
  • Technical data: IP address (collected by Google services and our hosting provider for security and abuse prevention).

3. Google AdSense & Advertising Data

We display advertisements on GLP-1 Primer using Google AdSense. Google AdSense is a third-party advertising vendor that uses cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites.

What Google AdSense Collects:

  • • Your IP address
  • • Cookie identifiers (e.g., the __gads cookie)
  • • Browsing history and interactions with ads across websites
  • • Device information (browser type, operating system, screen resolution)
  • • Approximate geographic location based on IP

How Google Uses This Data:

  • • To serve personalized ads based on your interests and browsing behavior
  • • To measure ad performance (impressions, clicks, conversions)
  • • To prevent fraud and invalid ad traffic
  • • To report aggregated performance metrics to publishers (us)

Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to our site and/or other sites on the Internet. You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. You can also opt out of third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting aboutads.info/choices.

We do not have access to Google's individually identifiable data about users who see or interact with ads on our site. We only receive aggregated, anonymized performance reports (e.g., total impressions, total clicks, estimated revenue).

4. Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our site so we can improve content and user experience. Google Analytics collects anonymous data including: pages visited, time spent on pages, traffic source (how you arrived at the site), device type, browser, and approximate geographic location.

Google Analytics uses cookies (e.g., _ga, _gid) to collect this data. The data is aggregated and anonymized — we cannot identify individual users from Analytics reports. You can learn more about Google Analytics data practices at Google's Partner Sites policy.

5. Cookies & How to Manage Them

Cookies are small text files stored on your device. We use cookies for the following purposes:

  • Advertising cookies (Google AdSense): Used to serve and measure ads. May be used for personalized advertising unless you opt out.
  • Analytics cookies (Google Analytics): Used to track anonymous usage data and site performance.
  • Essential cookies: Required for core site functionality (e.g., authentication if you have an account).

You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to refuse cookies or alert you when cookies are being sent. Note that disabling cookies may affect site functionality. For managing personalized ad cookies specifically, see the opt-out links in Section 3 above.

6. We Do Not Sell Your Data

Company submission details (business name, contact name, email, phone, pharmacy information) are used solely for the purpose of evaluating the submission and potentially listing the provider in our directory. Business name and public provider details may be displayed on the site if the submission is approved, but your personal contact information (email, phone) will not be publicly displayed.
