1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit our platform. They help us provide, secure, and improve our services.

Similar technologies include web beacons, pixels, local storage, and session storage. For simplicity, this policy refers to all these technologies as 'cookies.'

Cookies can be 'session cookies' (deleted when you close your browser) or 'persistent cookies' (remain until deleted or expired).

They can be 'first-party cookies' (set by Neurithum) or 'third-party cookies' (set by our service providers).

2. Why We Use Cookies

We use cookies for several important purposes:

Security and Authentication: To keep you securely logged in and protect against unauthorized access.

Platform Functionality: To enable core features and remember your preferences.

Performance Monitoring: To ensure the platform loads quickly and operates smoothly.

Analytics and Improvement: To understand how users interact with our platform and identify areas for improvement.

We do not use cookies for advertising, marketing, or tracking across unrelated websites.

3. Types of Cookies We Use

We categorize cookies based on their purpose and whether they can be disabled:

Strictly Necessary Cookies (Cannot be disabled): Essential for basic platform functionality, security, and legal compliance. Disabling these would break core features.

Performance Cookies (Can be disabled): Help us monitor and improve platform performance. These cookies collect aggregated, non-identifiable data.

Functional Cookies (Can be disabled): Remember your preferences and settings to provide a personalized experience.

Analytics Cookies (Can be disabled): Provide insights into how users interact with our platform to guide improvements.

4. Cookies and PHI

We are committed to protecting Protected Health Information (PHI) and do not store PHI in cookies.

Cookies may contain identifiers that link to your account, but patient-specific health information is never stored in cookies.

All PHI is stored securely in our encrypted databases and transmitted over secure connections.

Session identifiers in cookies are encrypted and automatically expire after a period of inactivity.

5. Third-Party Cookies

We use carefully selected third-party services that may set cookies for specific purposes:

Analytics Providers: Google Analytics (anonymized IP, no PHI) to understand platform usage patterns.

Performance Monitoring: Datadog for infrastructure monitoring and error tracking.

Security Services: Cloudflare for DDoS protection and secure content delivery.

All third-party providers are bound by strict data protection agreements and do not have access to PHI.

6. How to Manage Cookies

You have control over cookie preferences:

Browser Settings: Most browsers allow you to view, manage, and delete cookies. Check your browser's help section for instructions.

Cookie Preferences: Use our cookie preference center (available in the footer) to manage non-essential cookies.

Opt-Out Tools: You can opt out of analytics cookies using browser extensions or industry opt-out tools.

Note: Disabling strictly necessary cookies will impact platform functionality and may prevent you from using certain features.

8. Do Not Track Signals

Some browsers include 'Do Not Track' (DNT) features that signal you don't want to be tracked.

Because there is no industry standard for how to respond to DNT signals, our platform does not currently respond to DNT.

You can still control cookie usage through our cookie preference center and browser settings.

9. Updates to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology or legal requirements.

Any significant changes will be communicated through our platform or by email.

The 'Last Updated' date at the top indicates the most recent revision.

Continued use of our platform after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
