What Pharma Mate does not collect
Pharma Mate does not set cookies, use analytics, run advertising or load tracking scripts. There is no sign-up, no login, no newsletter and no contact form. Fonts, images and scripts load from the Pharma Mate domain, so no third-party service sees your visit through the page itself.
The site search and the support finder run entirely in your browser. When you type a search or pick a profession, region or need, the filtering happens on your own device. Nothing you type or choose is sent to Pharma Mate or stored after you leave the page.
Server logs kept by our host
Pharma Mate is hosted on Vercel. Like every web host, Vercel receives standard technical information each time your browser requests a page. This includes your IP address, the date and time, the page requested and your user agent, which describes your browser and device. Vercel processes this information to deliver the site and to protect the site against abuse and attacks. Pharma Mate does not use the logs to identify or profile visitors.
Read Vercel's privacy policy (opens another website) for how Vercel handles and keeps log data. The lawful basis for this processing is legitimate interests: running a secure, working website.
Links to other websites
Pharma Mate links to charities, unions, regulators, NHS services and government websites. When you follow a link, you leave Pharma Mate, and the other website's own privacy policy applies. Read the policy of any service before you share personal details with the service.
