Your Choices And Opt-Out Options
At Healthy Senior, we value your voice and your right to control how your personal information is used. As part of our efforts in product research, journalism, and advocacy, we regularly connect with consumers through digital and offline methods. Your input is essential to our mission.
If you'd prefer not to receive certain types of communications from us or want to limit how your data is used, here’s how you can take control:
Email Preferences And Promotional Messaging
We may send you updates about our services, ask for your feedback, or share promotional content. If you’d rather not receive these types of emails:
- Use the unsubscribe link provided in the footer of any email we send.
- Note that unsubscribing from one email list may not stop messages from other Healthy Senior business units.
- It may take up to 30 business days for your preferences to be fully updated.
- Service-related emails, such as order confirmations or account notifications, will still be delivered even if you opt out of promotional content.
U.S. residents can also register with the Direct Marketing Association (DMA) to reduce unwanted mail. Canadian users may use the Canadian Marketing Association (CMA) service to opt out of member marketing lists.
Analytics Tracking
We use tools such as Google Analytics Advertising Features to optimize ads and understand user behavior. To disable this tracking, visit Google’s Ad Settings or install the browser opt-out add-on from Google.
Location Sharing
If your browsing device (Desktop, mobile, handheld or any other similar device) has GPS or uses Wi-Fi or cellular signals to determine your location, that information may be shared with Healthy Senior depending on your privacy settings. To stop this, update your device or browser settings to disable location sharing.
Text Message Communications
If you've opted in to receive SMS messages from us:
- Text “STOP” to unsubscribe from a specific list.
- After opting out, you may receive a confirmation message.
- To get help or more information, reply “HELP.”
- Standard text and data rates may apply.
- Please allow a 30 day period for changes to be applied. You might still be receiving text message materials within that time frame.
