This Privacy Policy explains how DrBayer.com (“the Site,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, and shares information about visitors. By using this Site, you agree to the practices described below. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.
DrBayer.com is an informational and educational website. We are not a healthcare provider, and using this Site does not create a doctor-patient relationship. For information about the medical content on this Site, please review our Medical Disclaimer.
1. Information We Collect
We collect information in two ways: information you provide directly, and information collected automatically when you interact with the Site.

You may provide information when you:
- Submit a contact form or send us an email
- Subscribe to updates or content notifications

- Click through to a third-party partner such as a telehealth platform or product retailer
The information you provide may include your name, email address, and the contents of any message you send.
Information Collected Automatically
When you visit the Site, our servers and third-party analytics tools automatically collect certain information, including:
- IP address and approximate geographic location
- Browser type, version, and operating system
- Device type and screen resolution
- Referring website or search query
- Pages visited, time spent on pages, and click activity
- Date and time of your visit
2. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
We use cookies, web beacons, and similar tracking technologies to operate the Site, understand how it is used, and support our partnerships with third-party providers and affiliate networks.
The cookies on this Site fall into several categories:
- Essential cookies support basic Site functionality.
- Analytics cookies help us understand traffic patterns and content performance. We use Google Analytics for this purpose.
- Affiliate and advertising cookies track click-throughs from this Site to third-party partners. These cookies allow our partners to credit referrals and may be used for advertising attribution.
Most browsers allow you to refuse cookies or to be notified when a cookie is set. Refer to your browser's help documentation for instructions. Blocking cookies may limit some Site functionality.
3. How We Use Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Operate, maintain, and improve the Site
- Respond to inquiries you submit through our contact form or by email
- Analyze Site traffic and content performance
- Detect and prevent fraud, abuse, or technical issues
- Comply with legal obligations
- Track affiliate referrals to third-party platforms and product retailers
4. How We Share Information
We do not sell your personal information. We may share information in the following limited circumstances:
- Service providers: We share information with vendors who help us operate the Site, including hosting providers, analytics providers, and email service providers. These vendors are contractually limited to using your information only to perform services on our behalf.
- Affiliate partners: When you click a link to a third-party partner (such as a telehealth platform or product retailer), tracking parameters may be passed to that partner so they can credit the referral. We do not transmit your personally identifiable information through these links.
- Legal compliance: We may disclose information if required by law, subpoena, or other legal process, or if we believe disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, your safety, or the safety of others.
- Business transfers: If DrBayer.com is involved in a merger, acquisition, or asset sale, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction.
5. Third-Party Websites and Telehealth Partners
This Site contains links to third-party websites, including telehealth platforms and product retailers. When you click one of these links and leave DrBayer.com, you are subject to the privacy policy and terms of the destination website. We do not control and are not responsible for the privacy practices of third parties.
If you create an account, schedule an appointment, or submit health information to a telehealth platform you reach through this Site, that platform — not DrBayer.com — collects and processes your information under its own privacy policy. We strongly recommend reviewing the privacy policy of any third-party platform before submitting health information.
6. Health Information
DrBayer.com does not collect Protected Health Information (PHI) as defined under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). We are not a covered entity under HIPAA, and the Site is not designed to receive or store health information. Please do not submit medical history, diagnoses, prescription information, or other sensitive health details through our contact form or email.
7. Data Security
We use commercially reasonable safeguards to protect the information we collect. However, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security of any information you transmit to or from the Site.
8. Data Retention
We retain information for as long as needed to fulfill the purposes described in this Policy, comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. Analytics data is retained according to the retention settings of our analytics providers.
