Cookie Policy

weightcare.pro

Last Updated: July 22nd, 2026  |  Effective Date: July 22nd, 2026

In short. WeightCare.pro is an informational comparison website. We use a small number of cookies: some to make the site work, some to measure how the site is used, and some to measure how our advertising performs. We have no forms, no accounts and no newsletter, so cookies are the only way we collect anything at all. You can turn off everything except the strictly necessary cookies at any time — see Section 5.

1. Introduction and Scope

This Cookie Policy explains how Proads Solutions LTD ("we", "us", "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on weightcare.pro and on its subdomains, including weightcare.pro (together, the "Website"). It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which describes more fully what information we collect and what rights you have.

The Website is directed to residents of the United States. Our practices are built around U.S. state privacy laws, including the California Consumer Privacy Act as amended by the CPRA, and comparable laws in Colorado, Connecticut, Virginia, Texas, Oregon, Montana and other states. Where those laws apply, our approach is opt-out: you may direct us at any time to stop analytics and advertising cookies, and we honor browser opt-out signals.

We do not target or market to individuals in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom. However, if you visit from a location where prior consent is legally required, the Website will present a consent banner and no analytics or advertising cookies will be set until you affirmatively accept them.

2. What Cookies and Similar Technologies Are

A cookie is a small text file placed on your device by your browser when you visit a website. Cookies allow a site to recognize a returning browser, remember settings, and measure usage.

We also use technologies that work similarly:

  • Pixels and web beacons — small pieces of code or transparent images that record when a page or element has loaded
  • Local storage — browser-based storage used to retain settings such as your privacy choices
  • Tracking scripts — JavaScript that records technical and usage information about your visit
  • Server-side click logging — records generated by our own tracking infrastructure when you arrive at or leave the Website

For readability, this Policy refers to all of these as "cookies" unless a distinction matters.

2.1 First-Party and Third-Party Cookies

First-party cookies are set by us on our own domain, including on weightcare.pro. Because that subdomain shares the same registrable domain as the main site, browsers treat cookies set there as first-party. We are responsible for these cookies.

Third-party cookies are set by other companies whose services we have added to the Website, such as Google. Those companies determine how they use the information they collect, and their own privacy policies govern that use.

3. How We Categorize Cookies

Category What It Does Can You Turn It Off?
Strictly Necessary Enables core functionality, security, load balancing, and storage of your privacy choices. The Website cannot operate without these. No
Analytics Helps us understand in aggregate which pages are read and how visitors move through the Website, so we can improve our content. Yes
Advertising and Measurement Measures the performance of the advertising campaigns that bring visitors to the Website, and attributes referrals to partners. Yes
We place a cookie in the Strictly Necessary category only where the Website genuinely cannot function without it. Advertising and analytics cookies are never classified as strictly necessary, regardless of how commercially useful they are to us.

4.4 Our Own Referral Tracking

We operate a self-hosted click-tracking system (Binom) on servers located in the United States, reachable at weightcare.pro. It assigns each visit a random identifier so that we can attribute traffic to the advertising campaign that produced it and reconcile the compensation owed to us by partners. The identifier is not derived from, and cannot be reversed into, your name, email address or any other directly identifying detail — we do not hold any such details.

Name Set By Purpose Duration
_bn_click_id weightcare.pro (first-party) Random identifier assigned to a visit, used to attribute the visit to an advertising campaign and to a referral 30 days
_bn_camp weightcare.pro (first-party) Stores the campaign and traffic-source parameters associated with the visit 30 days
_bn_uid weightcare.pro (first-party) Distinguishes repeat visits from the same browser for deduplication and fraud detection 12 months

4.5 Cookies We Do Not Use

For the avoidance of doubt, the Website does not currently use Meta (Facebook) Pixel, TikTok Pixel, Snapchat Pixel, Taboola, Outbrain, Quora, NewsBreak, Microsoft Advertising, or any other advertising or social pixel beyond those listed in Section 4.3. If we add any, we will update this Policy before deploying them.

5. Your Choices and How to Exercise Them

5.1 Privacy Preference Control

A "Your Privacy Choices" page control is available where you can turn analytics and advertising cookies on or off by category. Strictly necessary cookies cannot be disabled, because the Website would not function without them.

Your choice is stored on your device. Because it is stored in a cookie, clearing your browser's cookies will also clear your preference, and you will need to set it again. Preferences are per-browser and per-device.

5.2 Opting Out of Sale or Sharing

As explained in our Privacy Policy, some of the disclosures we make to advertising partners may qualify as a "sale" or "share" of personal information under California and other state laws. To opt out, use the Your Privacy Choices (Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information) page, or transmit a Global Privacy Control signal as described in Section 6.

5.3 If You Are Located Where Consent Is Required

Where applicable law requires prior consent, a banner will appear on your first visit. It allows you to accept all, reject all, or choose by category, with refusing made as easy as accepting. No pre-ticked boxes are used, and continued browsing or scrolling is not treated as consent. Non-essential cookies are not set until you affirmatively choose them.

5.4 Effect of Opting Out

Turning off analytics and advertising cookies will not restrict your access to any content on the Website, and we will not degrade your experience or charge you differently because you did so. It may reduce our ability to measure how our content and campaigns perform.

6. Opt-Out Preference Signals (Global Privacy Control)

We recognize and honor the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal. If your browser or a browser extension transmits GPC, we treat it as a valid instruction to opt out of the sale and sharing of personal information associated with that browser, and to disable advertising cookies, without requiring any further action from you.

Because the signal is tied to a specific browser on a specific device, you will need to enable it separately in each browser and on each device you use. Information about GPC and supporting browsers is at globalprivacycontrol.org.

6.1 Do Not Track

Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" setting. No common industry standard governs how websites should respond to it, and we do not currently alter our practices in response to DNT signals. We do honor Global Privacy Control, which is a recognized opt-out mechanism under California law, and we honor choices you make through the controls in Section 5.

7. Managing Cookies in Your Browser

Independently of our controls, your browser lets you view, block and delete cookies.

Browser Where to Find Cookie Settings
Google Chrome Settings → Privacy and security → Third-party cookies / Site data
Safari (macOS) Settings → Privacy → Manage Website Data
Safari (iOS) Settings app → Safari → Privacy & Security
Mozilla Firefox Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
Microsoft Edge Settings → Cookies and site permissions
Opera Settings → Privacy & security → Cookies and other site data
Blocking all cookies will affect this Website and most others. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may prevent pages from loading correctly.

8. Industry Opt-Out Tools

These tools let you opt out of interest-based advertising across many companies at once. They are operated by third parties, not by us.

Tool Covers Link
DAA WebChoices Digital Advertising Alliance participants (US) optout.aboutads.info
NAI Opt-Out Network Advertising Initiative members (US) optout.networkadvertising.org
Google Ad Settings Google personalized advertising myadcenter.google.com
Google Analytics Opt-Out Google Analytics measurement tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout

Opting out of interest-based advertising does not stop you from seeing ads. It makes them less tailored.

9. Cookies and Health Information

This Website discusses weight management and prescription medications, and some state laws define "consumer health data" broadly enough to capture inferences drawn from online behavior. We have deliberately limited what our cookies do:

  • We do not use cookies to collect, infer or store any information about your weight, body mass index, diagnoses, medications, prescriptions or treatment goals — the Website has no quiz, questionnaire, calculator or form of any kind through which such information could be provided
  • We do not build, purchase or use advertising audience segments based on health conditions
  • We do not use geofencing around any healthcare facility, pharmacy or provider location
  • We do not attach health-related terms to the data transmitted to Google Analytics or Google Ads
  • We do not sell consumer health data

Analytics cookies do record which pages were viewed from a given browser. We use this in aggregate to decide what to write about, not to infer any individual's health status and not to target advertising on the basis of health.

Washington and Nevada residents with questions about consumer health data may write to privacy@weightcare.pro with the subject line "Health Data Request".

10. Third-Party Websites and Partner Links

When you click a link to a telehealth provider, pharmacy or other partner, you leave this Website. That destination sets its own cookies under its own policies, and this Cookie Policy stops applying. We do not control and are not responsible for the cookie or privacy practices of any third party.

When you follow such a link, the destination URL may carry a click identifier that we generated, so the partner can tell us the referral came from us. We do not transmit any other information about you to partners.

11. Updates to This Policy

We will update this Policy when the cookies we use change, when the law changes, or when our practices change. The "Last Updated" date at the top will be revised. Where a change is material — for example, adding a new advertising pixel — we will make the change visible on the Website and, where required, present a fresh consent request.
