Pixel Tracking Consent and Acknowledgement
FastHealth Corporation and its licensees do not encourage use of pixel tracking technologies by third parties as they might invade patient privacy. However, areas of FastHealth and FastHealth licensee websites might link to or interface with third party companies that might use pixel tracking technologies and other tracking tools within their services.

FastHealth Corporation and its website licensees including hospitals, health clinics, governments, businesses, and other associated entities highly recommend that any and all users accessing FastHealth developed websites and programs to fully recognize that third party services from Alphabet Inc, Facebook, and other vendors are sometimes known to use pixel types of tracking tools that might or could pose a risk to privacy in some way. FastHealth has read that Google Analytics, Google Maps, Google Fonts, Facebook, and other social networks or websites might use questionable tracking methodologies in their programs.

By accessing FastHealth or FastHealth licensee webpages and websites you consent, and are fully aware, that third parties might implement possible pixel tracking or other methodologies to track user page history patterns and statistics or to aggregate user data for commercial use, advertising, or other purposes. Our licensees might interface with analytical tools that contain pixel tracking functionality. Though mapping or statistical areas sometime collect data about user trends FastHealth is not an expert on how tracking and privacy correlations might impact users now or ahead. While there could be an indirect or direct high risk of some type we ask users not wishing their privacy be at risk or exploited to avoid this website or any and all licensee websites.

By accessing and using websites created by FastHealth and its partners, associates, and licensees you agree to take full responsibility in proceeding with risks associated from third party use of pixel tracking technologies or other methodologies for tracking or exploiting user data and that you give full consent to the processes being utilized with your use of these websites. By proceeding you agree you understand possible risks of privacy disclosure that could create some risk to your privacy and you consent that you have knowledge of risks for commercial exploitation and you give full consent to these tracking methodologies should you access them or interface with them.

Many FastHealth customers are taking steps to remove some risks and/or are trying to reduce risks regarding website tracking. FastHealth encourages hospitals and other licensees to to consider avoid linking to third party companies that exploit or disclose user privacy or user data in any way for manipulative or advertising purposes. By using this website you agree and consent to third party website presentations and programs including pixel tracking or other related methodologies. By using this website you consent to all use of your user data by third parties interfaced with through this website.

No Spam; Damages
FASTHEALTH will immediately terminate any account which it believes, in its sole discretion, is transmitting or is otherwise connected with any spam or other unsolicited bulk email.
