Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy supplements our Privacy Policy (specifically Section 2.5 “Cookies and Tracking Technologies”) and describes the types of cookies and tracking mechanisms utilized across the Health BETA digital presence.

By clicking the “Accept” button on our cookie notice banner or by continuing to use our website, you agree to the placement and reading of cookies in accordance with this policy and applicable data privacy regulations, including the Singapore Personal Data Protection Act 2012 (“PDPA”) and General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”).

Cookies are small text identifiers that are stored on your computer, mobile device, or tablet when you load web pages. They are widely used to ensure websites function efficiently, maintain session security, remember user preferences, and provide analytical telemetry to platform operators.

In addition to HTTP cookies, we may use related browser technologies such as localStorage, sessionStorage, and security tokens to safeguard clinical communication and retain your consent state.

3.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are indispensable for the core operation, safety, and integrity of our digital platforms. They enable secure authentication for healthcare providers, preserve CSRF token validation on clinical demonstration inquiry forms, and remember your cookie consent preferences.

• Authentication & Session Tokens: Secure verification when accessing practitioner clinical portals.
• Security & Integrity: Prevention of fraudulent submissions and cross-site request forgery.
• Consent State: Retains whether you have accepted or declined non-essential cookies.

3.2 Performance & Analytical Cookies

These cookies allow us to aggregate anonymous telemetry regarding how visitors navigate the website. Information collected includes visitor counts, average page dwell time, interaction with genomic evidence publications, and referral pathways. This data helps us optimize platform speed, validate research content delivery, and refine navigation structures.

3.3 Functional & Preference Cookies

Functional cookies remember your display choices, language preferences, and interactive states—such as your selected research category filter (e.g., Cardiovascular & CAD vs. Gene-Lifestyle & GxL) or modal state—delivering a seamless, personalized experience without requiring repetitive inputs.

Health BETA collaborates with authorized clinical cloud partners (including cloud.healthbeta.co and institutional research collaborators). When navigating between platforms, verified session parameters may be transmitted to maintain authentication integrity.

Our site does not sell your personal data or provide sensitive genomic information to third-party data brokers. Any third-party service provider engaged for hosting or analytics operates under strict confidentiality and data protection agreements compliant with applicable laws.
