Privacy Policy

How Clinical Forage handles email, cookies, analytics, advertising, external links, and health-related information you should not send.

Summary

Clinical Forage is owned by Kerr Media LLC and publishes educational information. It is not a clinical trial sponsor, research site, healthcare provider, recruiting agency, contract research organization, or medical adviser. The site does not provide accounts, patient portals, eligibility screening forms, study applications, or clinical-trial enrollment services.

You should not send personal medical information, medical records, Social Security numbers, insurance details, study applications, or urgent health questions through this website or by email. If you are considering a clinical study, rely on the official study team, informed consent materials, and qualified healthcare professionals.

Information you provide voluntarily

You may choose to contact Clinical Forage by email or through a contact link. If you do, the information you provide may include your name, email address, message content, and any other details you decide to include. That information is used to read, respond to, manage, and archive correspondence.

Because Clinical Forage is a public informational site, email is not an appropriate way to submit sensitive health information. Do not send medical records, lab results, prescriptions, diagnoses, government identification numbers, payment information, or confidential study documents.

Health-related information

Clinical Forage discusses health-adjacent topics because clinical research participation often involves screening, consent, eligibility criteria, visits, compensation, travel, and medical history questions. Reading those pages does not create a doctor-patient relationship or a research-participant relationship with Clinical Forage.

Clinical Forage does not ask for protected health information, medical histories, eligibility packets, study records, or participant files. If you share health information by email despite this warning, it may be received and stored like ordinary email. It will not be treated as a study application, medical consultation, or enrollment request.

Information collected automatically

Like many websites, Clinical Forage may receive basic technical information when you visit. This may include your browser type, device type, operating system, referring page, pages viewed, approximate location derived from your IP address, timestamps, and routine server log information.

This information is generally used for site security, troubleshooting, traffic measurement, performance improvement, spam prevention, and understanding which pages are useful to readers. Server logs and similar technical records may be retained by hosting providers or other service providers according to their own retention practices.

Cookies and similar technologies

Clinical Forage and third-party services may use cookies, pixels, local storage, or similar technologies. These technologies can help a website remember preferences, measure traffic, understand how visitors use pages, detect abuse, and support advertising.

You can usually change cookie settings through your browser. Blocking cookies may affect how some websites function, but Clinical Forage should remain usable as a mostly static informational site.

Analytics

Clinical Forage may use analytics tools to understand general site usage, such as which pages are visited, how people arrive at the site, how long pages are viewed, and which devices or browsers are commonly used. Analytics information is used in aggregate to improve content, navigation, speed, and readability.

Analytics providers may set cookies or collect technical information according to their own policies. Clinical Forage does not use analytics to make medical decisions, determine study eligibility, or evaluate whether a visitor should participate in research.

Advertising and Google AdSense

Clinical Forage may display advertising, including ads served by Google or other third-party vendors. Third-party vendors, including Google, may use cookies or similar technologies to serve ads based on a visitor’s prior visits to this website or other websites.

Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on visits to Clinical Forage and other sites on the internet. Visitors may opt out of personalized advertising through Google’s Ads Settings. Visitors can also learn more about choices for third-party vendor cookies through industry opt-out resources where available in their region.

Advertising does not influence the editorial content of Clinical Forage. Articles, guides, checklists, and field-note scenarios remain educational and participant-focused. Ads should not be understood as endorsements of a study, sponsor, product, clinic, recruiter, or service.

Affiliate links and sponsored placements

Clinical Forage may include affiliate links, sponsored links, or other paid placements in the future. If that happens, the site should disclose the relationship near the relevant content when possible. Editorial content should remain separate from paid placement decisions.

A link, advertisement, or mention does not mean Clinical Forage recommends that you enroll in a study, buy a product, use a service, or share personal information with a third party. Always verify claims directly with official sources.

External links and study registries

Clinical Forage links to external websites, including public registries, research organizations, government resources, sponsors, universities, clinics, and other third-party sites. Those websites are not controlled by Clinical Forage and may have their own privacy policies, terms, cookies, advertising practices, accessibility standards, and data collection methods.

Before submitting personal information to an external website, review that site’s privacy policy and verify that you are dealing with the official study team or another legitimate organization. Clinical Forage is not responsible for the privacy practices, accuracy, security, or conduct of third-party websites.

How information may be used

Information collected through the site may be used to operate and maintain the website, respond to messages, improve pages, monitor traffic, troubleshoot technical problems, prevent abuse, protect the site, comply with legal obligations, and evaluate whether the content is useful to readers.

Clinical Forage does not sell clinical trial applications, medical histories, participant records, or eligibility files because it does not ask readers to submit those materials. If ordinary correspondence or technical data is handled by service providers, those providers may process it as needed to provide hosting, email, analytics, security, or advertising services.

Sharing of information

Clinical Forage may share limited information with service providers that help operate the site, such as hosting providers, email providers, analytics providers, advertising partners, spam-prevention services, security tools, or content-management tools. These providers may process information according to their own policies and agreements.

Information may also be disclosed if required by law, legal process, court order, government request, or to protect rights, safety, security, and site integrity. Clinical Forage does not publish private reader emails as testimonials or case studies without permission.

Data retention

Email correspondence may be retained for as long as reasonably useful for communication, recordkeeping, editorial corrections, or site administration. Server logs, analytics records, and advertising records may be retained by third-party providers according to their own schedules.

If you want a prior email communication deleted, you may contact Clinical Forage and request deletion. Some information may remain in backups, logs, archives, or provider systems for a limited time, and some records may be retained when reasonably necessary for legal, security, or administrative purposes.

Children’s privacy

Clinical Forage is for a general adult audience interested in clinical research participation. The site is not directed to children under 13, and it does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

If you believe a child has provided personal information to Clinical Forage, contact the site so the information can be reviewed and, where appropriate, deleted.

Your choices

  • You may choose not to email Clinical Forage.
  • You may use browser settings to block or delete cookies.
  • You may opt out of personalized ads through Google’s Ads Settings.
  • You may avoid clicking external links or submitting information to third-party sites.
  • You may request deletion of ordinary email correspondence, subject to legal and administrative limits.

Security

Reasonable efforts are made to maintain the site and use reputable service providers. No website, email system, hosting platform, or internet transmission is completely secure. Do not send sensitive personal, medical, financial, or identification information through ordinary email or unsecured channels.

International visitors

Clinical Forage is published for a United States audience, but visitors from other locations may access the site. If you visit from outside the United States, your information may be processed in the United States or in other locations where service providers operate.

Changes to this policy

This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time to reflect changes in site features, advertising, analytics, service providers, legal requirements, or editorial practices. The effective date below will be updated when material changes are made.
