 MEDIC PARADISE COOKIE POLICY

Last Updated: May 5, 2026

1.        OVERVIEW

This Cookie Policy explains how Carpe Diem CA, LLC dba Medic Paradise (“Medic Paradise,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies on www.medicparadise.com and related sites or apps (collectively, the “Site”). It also describes your choices. For more information about how we process personal data, see our Privacy Policy.

2.        WHAT COOKIES AND SIMILAR TECHNOLOGIES WE USE

We use the following categories of technologies:

  • Strictly Necessary Cookies: Required to provide core functionality such as page navigation, session management, authentication, security, fraud prevention, and consent logging. These cannot be switched off in our systems.
  • Functional Cookies: Enable enhanced functionality and personalization (for example, remembering preferences like language or location). If you disable these, some or all Site features may not function properly.
  • Performance/Analytics Cookies: Help us understand Site usage (for example, pages visited, links clicked, time on page) so we can improve performance and user experience. Where required by law, we set these only with your consent.
  • Targeting/Advertising Cookies: Used to deliver ads more relevant to you and to measure advertising performance, including cross-context behavioral advertising. Where required by law, we set these only with your consent.
  • Web Beacons, Pixels, SDKs, and Local Storage: We and our service providers may also use small files or code snippets (such as pixels), software development kits in mobile apps, HTML5 local storage, and similar technologies for the purposes above.

In addition, we may use server-side tagging, probabilistic identifiers, or similar techniques (collectively, “fingerprinting”) to measure usage, prevent fraud, and improve security. Where required by law, we use such techniques only with your consent.

Note: For the current and complete list (including names, purposes, and lifespans), consult the cookie banner “Details” or “Preferences” panel.

3.        WHO SETS THESE COOKIES

  • First-Party Cookies: Placed by Medic Paradise.
  • Third-Party Cookies: Placed by our service providers (for example, analytics, A/B testing, fraud prevention, and advertising). Because these service providers may combine information from your activity on our Site with other information they have, their use is governed by their own privacy policies.

Note on Cookies: Our cookies may change over time. For the most current list, including names, purposes, and lifespans, consult our cookie banner “Details” or “Preferences” panel at any time.

4.        HOW LONG COOKIES LAST

  • Session Cookies: Expire when you close your browser or end your session.
  • Persistent Cookies: Remain for a defined period set by the issuer (typically between 1 day and 24 months). Some analytics identifiers may persist up to 25 months, unless you delete them earlier or withdraw consent. Exact durations are shown in the cookie banner details.

5.        LEGAL BASES (WHERE GDPR/UK GDPR/APPLICABLE EU/UK LAWS APPLY)

  • Strictly Necessary Cookies: Our legal basis is our legitimate interests in delivering the Site and ensuring its security and integrity (or, where applicable, performance of a contract).
  • Functional, Analytics, and Targeting Cookies: Our legal basis is your consent. You can give or withdraw consent via the cookie banner and preferences center at any time.

We record your consent choices (time, region, categories) and retain consent logs to demonstrate compliance. You may withdraw consent at any time via the persistent “Cookie Settings” link; withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal.

6.        YOUR CONTROLS AND CHOICES

  • Cookie Banner and Preferences Center: On your first visit (and periodically thereafter), a banner allows you to accept all, reject non‑essential categories, or manage categories. You can update choices at any time via the persistent “Cookie Settings” link in our footer. The banner experience varies by location: in the EEA/UK, non‑essential cookies are set only after opt‑in consent; in relevant U.S. states, you may opt out of “sale”/“sharing” and targeted advertising via the banner and the “Do Not Sell or Share” link. Choices are presented with equal prominence and are accessible via keyboard navigation and screen readers.
  • Browser Settings: Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies. Instructions are typically available under your browser’s “Help” or “Settings.” Blocking strictly necessary cookies may impair core Site functions.
  • Global Privacy Control (GPC) and Similar Signals: Where required by applicable law, our Site endeavors to honor browser-based opt‑out signals (e.g., GPC) for certain data sales/sharing or targeted advertising activities. Because technology and regulatory guidance continue to evolve, honoring may vary by jurisdiction and browser capability.
  • Mobile Settings (Apps): For in‑app advertising, you can reset or limit ad identifiers in your device settings (for example, “Limit Ad Tracking” on iOS or “Opt out of Ads Personalization” on Android).
  • Industry Opt‑Outs (Advertising): You may also opt out of interest‑based advertising from participating companies via:
    • Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA): aboutads.info/choices
    • Network Advertising Initiative (NAI): optout.networkadvertising.org
    • For the EU/UK: youronlinechoices.eu

Note: These tools are browser‑specific, device‑specific, and rely on cookies themselves; if you clear cookies, you may need to opt out again.

7.        “DO NOT SELL OR SHARE” (CALIFORNIA AND SIMILAR U.S. LAWS)

Some of our use of cookies and tracking technologies may be considered a “sale,” “share,” or “targeted advertising” under certain U.S. state privacy laws. If you are a resident of a state that grants these rights (e.g., California, Colorado, Connecticut, Utah, Virginia), you may exercise your right to opt out via:

  • The cookie banner/preferences center by disabling “Targeting/Advertising” cookies; and/or
  • The “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” link (where provided on our Site). We also endeavor to process recognized opt‑out preference signals (e.g., GPC) as described above.

8.        ANALYTICS AND ADVERTISING

Subject to change, see our banner for the current list and purposes:

  • Analytics/Performance: Google Analytics (site usage and performance insights), A/B testing tools.
  • Advertising/Targeting: Platforms that support ad delivery, measurement, and attribution across sites and apps.
  • Security/Fraud: Tools that help detect fraudulent activity and protect accounts and payments.

9.        INTERNATIONAL TRANSFERS

We and our service providers may process information in countries other than where you reside, including the United States. Where required by law (e.g., for transfers from the EEA/UK to countries without an adequacy decision), we implement appropriate safeguards such as the EU Standard Contractual Clauses and/or the UK IDTA/Addendum, and supplementary measures where necessary.

10.  CHILDREN

Our Site is not directed to children under 16. We do not knowingly place non‑essential cookies for users under the age required by local law (for example, under 13 in the U.S. (COPPA) and between 13–16 in the EU/UK, depending on the country). We do not knowingly use cookies to profile children for targeted advertising. If you believe a child has provided personal data, please contact us so we can take appropriate steps.

11.  CHANGES TO THIS POLICY

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time (for example, to reflect changes in technologies, laws, or our practices). When we do, we will revise the “Last Updated” date above and, where required, prompt you to review or re‑confirm your preferences.
