Last updated: February 16, 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how Kure Health Inc. ("Kure Health," "we," "us," or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit kurehealth.io, our patient portal, or any related digital properties. It explains what these technologies are, why we use them, and your rights to control them.
IMPORTANT: Cookies used on our website do not collect or store Protected Health Information (PHI) as defined by HIPAA. Our patient portal uses separate, HIPAA-compliant session management. This Cookie Policy applies to general website browsing cookies only.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small data files placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites function properly, improve user experience, and provide usage information to site owners.
First-party cookies are set by Kure Health Inc. directly. Third-party cookies are set by external services (such as analytics providers) and enable features like website traffic analysis. Third-party services can recognize your device when you visit our site and other websites.

We do not use cookies to collect, store, or transmit Protected Health Information (PHI). Health-related data is handled exclusively through our HIPAA-compliant systems with appropriate safeguards.

Patient Portal & HIPAA Compliance
Our patient portal uses HIPAA-compliant session management that is separate from general website cookies. When you log in to the patient portal:
- Authentication tokens are encrypted and transmitted securely over HTTPS
- Session cookies expire automatically after a period of inactivity to protect your account
- No Protected Health Information (PHI) is stored in browser cookies
- All health data is processed and stored within our HIPAA-compliant infrastructure
- Access logs for the patient portal are maintained in accordance with HIPAA requirements
Analytics and advertising cookies are not active within authenticated patient portal pages to prevent any inadvertent collection of health-related browsing patterns.
Other Tracking Technologies
In addition to cookies, we may use similar technologies such as:
- Web beacons (pixels): Tiny graphics that help us understand email open rates and website traffic patterns
- Local storage: Browser storage used to save non-sensitive preferences and improve performance
These technologies are used only on our public-facing website and marketing emails — never within the patient portal or in connection with health information.
How to Control Cookies

Do Not Track
Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" (DNT) signal. As there is no industry-wide standard for DNT, our website does not currently respond to DNT signals, but we respect your other cookie control choices.
