Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 8, 2026

This Privacy Policy describes how Adsconsultant, MB ("we," "us," or "our"), the operator of thehealthread (thehealthread.com), collects, uses, stores, and shares information when you visit or interact with our website. By using thehealthread, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

1. Which Information We Collect

We may collect two categories of information from visitors to thehealthread:

• Personal information — information that identifies you individually, such as your name, email address, mailing address, phone number, and payment details, when you voluntarily submit it through forms, subscriptions, or purchases.
• Non-personal information — data that does not identify you directly, including IP address, browser type and version, operating system, device identifiers, pages visited, referring URLs, time and date of visits, and approximate geographic location derived from your IP address.

In some cases we may combine non-personal information with personal information, in which case the combined data is treated as personal information under this policy.

2. How We Collect It

We collect information through several means:

• Direct submission — when you fill out a contact form, subscribe to a newsletter, request a quote, or otherwise submit information to us.
• Cookies and local storage — small data files placed on your device that help us remember your preferences and recognize return visits.
• Web beacons and pixel tags — small image files embedded in pages or emails that record whether a page or message was opened and basic device information.
• Log files — our servers automatically record standard access logs including IP addresses, browser type, pages requested, and timestamps.

3. How We Use Information

We use the information we collect for the following purposes:

• Providing services — to deliver the content, products, and services you request and to process any transactions.
• Improving the site — to understand how visitors use thehealthread, diagnose technical problems, and enhance functionality and content.
• Marketing and communications — to send you newsletters, promotional offers, and updates where you have opted in; you may opt out at any time by following the unsubscribe instructions in any email or by contacting us.
• Personalization — to tailor content, offers, and advertisements to your interests based on your browsing activity.
• Legal compliance — to comply with applicable laws, regulations, legal processes, and governmental requests.
• Disputes and enforcement — to detect fraud, enforce our Terms of Use, and resolve disputes.

4. Disclosure of Information to Others

We do not sell your personal information. We may share it in the following circumstances:

• Service providers — third-party vendors and contractors who help us operate thehealthread (for example, hosting providers, email delivery services, payment processors, and analytics platforms). These parties are permitted to use your information only to perform services on our behalf.
• Fulfilling your requests — when you interact with an advertiser or affiliate offer on our site, we may share relevant information with the applicable third party to fulfil that request.
• Legal requirements — when we believe disclosure is required by law, court order, or governmental authority, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of thehealthread, its users, or others.
• Business transfers — if Adsconsultant, MB is involved in a merger, acquisition, sale of assets, or other business transaction, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will notify you via a notice on this page before your data becomes subject to a materially different privacy policy.
• Aggregated data — we may share anonymized, aggregated information (which does not identify any individual) with partners or for research purposes.

5. Third-Party Collection

Certain third parties operating on or linked from thehealthread may independently collect information about you:

• Advertisers and affiliate networks — companies whose advertisements or sponsored links appear on our site may use cookies, web beacons, or other tracking technologies to collect data about your interactions with their ads. This data collection is governed by those companies' own privacy policies, not this one.
• Linked websites — thehealthread contains links to external websites. Once you leave our site, we have no control over, and are not responsible for, the privacy practices of those sites.
• Analytics providers — we use third-party analytics services (such as Google Analytics) that set their own cookies to help us understand site usage. Those providers may combine data collected on thehealthread with data from other websites in accordance with their own policies.

6. Where We Store Your Data

thehealthread is operated by Adsconsultant, MB. Information we collect may be stored on and processed by servers located in the United States or the European Union, depending on our service providers at any given time.

By submitting information to thehealthread, you consent to its transfer, storage, and processing in these locations. We take reasonable steps to ensure that data processed outside your country of residence receives an adequate level of protection.

7. International Data Transfers (EU/EEA)

If you are located in the European Union or European Economic Area, your personal information may be transferred to and processed in countries that do not provide the same level of data protection as your home country.

Where such transfers occur, we rely on appropriate safeguards to protect your information, which may include the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses, the EU–US Data Privacy Framework, or transfers to countries that have received an adequacy decision from the European Commission.

You may request information about the specific safeguards applied to a transfer of your data by contacting us at hello@thehealthread.com.

8. Cookies

thehealthread uses both session cookies (which expire when you close your browser) and persistent cookies (which remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them). Cookies allow us to remember your preferences, keep you logged in where applicable, and understand how you navigate the site.

Third parties, including advertising networks and analytics providers, may also place cookies on your device when you visit our site. You can control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to refuse all cookies, delete cookies you already have, or receive a warning before a cookie is stored. Note that disabling cookies may affect the functionality of thehealthread and other websites.

9. Security

We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, use, alteration, or disclosure. For example, data transmitted between your browser and our servers is protected by SSL/TLS encryption.

However, no method of transmission over the internet, and no method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security, and we encourage you to take steps to protect your own information, such as using a strong password and keeping it confidential.

10. Your EU/UK Rights (GDPR)

If you are located in the European Union, European Economic Area, or the United Kingdom, you have the following rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and, where applicable, UK data protection law:

• Access — the right to request a copy of the personal information we hold about you.
• Rectification — the right to ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete personal information.
• Erasure — the right to request that we delete your personal information in certain circumstances ("right to be forgotten").
• Restriction — the right to ask us to restrict processing of your personal information in certain circumstances.
• Data portability — the right to receive your personal information in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format and to transmit it to another controller.
• Objection — the right to object to processing of your personal information where we rely on legitimate interests as the legal basis, including profiling for direct marketing.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at hello@thehealthread.com. We will respond to your request within the timeframe required by applicable law. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority.

11. US State Privacy Rights
