Information Collection Practices

At Solstice Pharma Initiative, accessible through solstice-initiative.org, we are committed to safeguarding the privacy of our users while providing comprehensive information on pharmaceuticals, medications, supplements, and general healthcare topics. In the course of your interaction with our website, we may collect personally identifiable information such as your name, email address, and any other data submitted through contact or newsletter subscription forms. Additionally, we collect non-personally identifiable information including browser type, device information, IP address, and visiting patterns via cookies and usage analytics tools. This information is gathered to ensure the website's functionality, enhance user experience, respond to inquiries, and for site administration purposes. All data collection complies with applicable federal and state laws in the United States, including the requirements of relevant privacy regulations and guidelines.

We practice transparency in our data collection efforts and make every reasonable effort to inform users about when and how their information is collected, used, or stored. We limit collection to information genuinely required for the fulfillment of website services or as necessitated by legal obligations. Children under the age of 13 are not intentionally targeted, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from minors without appropriate parental consent as required by the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA).

Use of Personal Information

The personal information gathered through solstice-initiative.org is utilized primarily to deliver healthcare information, respond to your queries, manage subscriptions, and improve the content and features of our site. We may also use information to analyze trends, monitor the effectiveness of our informational resources, and to comply with any applicable legal and regulatory obligations. Data may be aggregated or anonymized for research, statistics, or business analytics; such data cannot be used to identify individual users.

We clarify that your data is never sold or rented to third parties for commercial gain. Personal information is disclosed only where necessary for website operation, with trusted service providers under strict confidentiality obligations or to law enforcement authorities as required by legal proceedings, regulatory mandates, or governmental requests. Any use of data for secondary purposes, such as emailing newsletters or updates, is performed only with your explicit consent, and opt-out mechanisms are clearly provided in all communications.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Cookies and similar tracking technologies are used to enhance website navigation, monitor user engagement, and analyze aggregate usage patterns. Essential cookies are deployed to maintain session management and to ensure secure access to specific features. Performance cookies and analytics tools help us understand how visitors interact with our content, which in turn enables us to optimize the delivery of health-related information relevant to your interests and preferences. Users have the ability to control cookie preferences through their browser settings, although some features may not operate optimally if cookies are disabled.

Persistent cookies may remain on your device until deleted manually, whereas session cookies are erased upon closing your browser. We do not use cookies to collect sensitive personal health information. All cookie data is handled with the highest level of security and privacy consistent with our obligations under United States law and industry standards.

Data Storage, Security, and Retention

Your personal information is stored on secure servers with robust technical and organizational measures to prevent unauthorized access, data breaches, or misuse. Encryption, firewalls, and regular system monitoring are employed to ensure the security and integrity of the data we store. Access to personal information is strictly controlled and limited only to personnel or service providers who require it to perform essential functions. Regular audits are performed to assess and improve security measures in place.

We retain your personal information only for as long as is necessary to provide requested services, meet legal and regulatory requirements, resolve disputes, or enforce agreements. Upon expiration of the retention period or upon your specific request, personal data will be securely deleted, anonymized, or destroyed using industry best practices, thereby preventing its unauthorized recovery and use.

Your Privacy Rights and Choices

As a user of Solstice Pharma Initiative, you have certain rights regarding your personal information under U.S. law, including but not limited to the rights of access, correction, deletion, and restriction of processing. Subject to verifiable requests and applicable legal exceptions, you may contact us to review, update, or erase the information that we hold about you. You may also withdraw your consent for specific uses or request to opt-out of newsletters or direct communications at any time via the mechanisms provided within our communications or through the contact information below.

If you wish to exercise any of these rights, please send your request to [email protected]. We will respond to written requests as promptly as practicable and always in accordance with applicable legal timeframes.

Third-Party Links and External Resources

The Solstice Pharma Initiative website may contain links to third-party websites or embedded content that is not controlled or operated by us. These external sites may have their own privacy policies and data collection practices, which are not governed by our Privacy Policy. Users are strongly advised to review the privacy statements and terms of service of any linked or referenced sites prior to providing personal information or making use of their services. We disclaim responsibility for any information collected or processed by third parties outside of our direct control.

To safeguard your privacy, we make reasonable efforts to partner only with reputable organizations and avoid the inclusion of unnecessary external scripts or tracking elements. Any third-party integrations or service providers directly engaged by us are carefully vetted to meet our privacy and security standards.

International Data Transfers

Solstice Pharma Initiative is operated and managed by Grayson Whitlock, with an administrative address at 85 Whiteladies Road, Clifton, Bristol, BS8 2NT, United Kingdom. However, the primary user base is located in the United States. All personal data collected on or through this website is primarily processed and stored in data centers that comply with U.S. data protection requirements. While the owner may access or administer certain technical aspects internationally, every reasonable measure is taken to ensure that such transmissions conform to the legal protections and safeguards mandated by U.S. privacy laws and relevant international agreements.

By using our website, you consent to any such transfer and processing of your information as described, recognizing that the level of data protection in other jurisdictions may differ from that in your country of residence. Nonetheless, we are committed to upholding the highest standards, wherever your data is handled, ensuring adequate safeguards are in place to protect your privacy rights.
