We may use cookies and similar technologies to remember your preferences, improve website functionality, understand website traffic, and analyze visitor behavior. You can disable cookies through your browser settings, although some website features may not function properly.
4. How We Use Your Information
We use your information to respond to inquiries, improve our educational resources, send newsletters (only if you subscribe), maintain website security, analyze website performance, develop future services, and comply with legal obligations. We do not sell your personal information.
5. Health Information
Cancer Comfort Space is not intended to collect or store medical records. If you voluntarily send us health-related information, we will treat it respectfully. Please share only the information necessary for us to respond to your inquiry. Because email is not completely secure, please do not send emergency medical information through this website.
6. Sharing Information
We may share information only with trusted service providers who help operate our website, when required by law, to protect legal rights or user safety, or as part of an organizational restructuring or merger if applicable. We never sell your personal information to advertisers or unrelated third parties.

We may use trusted third-party providers for website analytics, email newsletters, website hosting, and spam protection. These providers process only the information necessary to deliver their services. We encourage you to review their privacy policies.
8. External Links
Our website may contain links to hospitals, healthcare organizations, charities, government agencies, educational resources, or other third-party websites. We are not responsible for their privacy practices or content.
9. Data Security
We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect your personal information. However, no method of internet transmission or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
10. Data Retention
We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to respond to your requests, operate the website, meet legal obligations, resolve disputes, and improve our services. We securely delete or anonymize information once it is no longer required unless a longer retention period is required by law.
11. Children’s Privacy
Cancer Comfort Space is intended for a general audience.
