What This Privacy Policy Covers
This policy covers how NewsRx treats personal information that NewsRx collects and receives, including information related to your past use of NewsRx products and services. Personal information is information about you that is personally identifiable like your name, address, email address, or phone number, and that is not otherwise publicly available.

NewsRx may combine information about you that we have with information we obtain from business partners or other companies.
When you register we ask for information such as your name, email address, birth date, gender, zip code, occupation, and industry. Once you register with NewsRx and sign in to our services, you are not anonymous to us.
NewsRx collects information about your transactions with us, including information about your use of financial products and services that we offer.

Information Sharing and Disclosure
NewsRx does not rent, sell, or share personal information about you with other people or nonaffiliated companies except to provide products or services you've requested, when we have your permission, or under the following circumstances:
We provide the information to trusted partners who work on behalf of or with NewsRx under confidentiality agreements. These companies may use your personal information to help NewsRx communicate with you about offers from NewsRx. However, these companies do not have any independent right to share this information.
We respond to subpoenas, court orders, or legal process, or to establish or exercise our legal rights or defend against legal claims.
We believe it is necessary to share information in order to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person, violations of NewsRx's terms of use, or as otherwise required by law.
We transfer information about you if NewsRx is acquired by or merged with another company. In this event, NewsRx will notify you before information about you is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy.
NewsRx displays targeted advertisements based on personal information. Advertisers (including ad serving companies) may assume that people who interact with, view, or click on targeted ads meet the targeting criteria - for example, women ages 18-24 from a particular geographic area.
NewsRx does not provide any personal information to the advertiser when you interact with or view a targeted ad. However, by interacting with or viewing an ad you are consenting to the possibility that the advertiser will make the assumption that you meet the targeting criteria used to display the ad.
NewsRx advertisers include health product and service providers (such as pharmaceutical companies, etc.).
