Privacy policy
Last updated October 27, 2026
01. General Privacy Statement
Reckner Health (d/b/a Reckner Healthcare, hereinafter referred to as “Reckner”, “we”, “us”, and “our”) respects your privacy and is committed to protecting personal information. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, disclose, and otherwise process personal information in connection with our website recknerhealth.com and its subdomains (“our website”) and related interactions.
02. Scope of This Privacy Policy
Some data protection laws in various jurisdictions distinguish between “controllers” (or “businesses”) and “processors” (or “service providers”) of personal information. A controller is the party who decides why and how to process personal information. A processor only processes information on behalf of a controller based on the controller’s instruction.
This Privacy Policy applies to personal information that we collect and process in our capacity as a data controller and explains how we collect, use, and share such information. For example, this Privacy Policy covers when you:
- Visit our website that links to this Privacy Policy
- Register to join our expert network
- Create a specialty profile within our expert network
- Receive invitations to market research studies as part of our expert network
- Complete market research studies as part of our expert network
- In connection with your account registration and administration of your account, including the payment of honoraria as part of our expert network
- Receive a sales or marketing communication from us, including emails, texts, or telephone calls
- Engage in any other contractual arrangement that references this Privacy Policy.
This Privacy Policy does not apply to information that our suppliers process on our behalf. Such processing is governed exclusively by applicable supplier agreements and is outside the scope of this Privacy Policy.
03. Information We Collect
We collect personal information from various sources, including directly from you, automatically from your interactions with our website, and from third parties.
Some jurisdictions, including the European Economic Area (“EEA”), the United Kingdom (“UK”), and Switzerland, require a legal basis, or reason, why Reckner is legally allowed to collect and use your personal information.
Below, we describe (1) information that may be provided by you, (2) information that may be collected automatically, and (3) our purposes and legal bases for collection. If we need to collect other personal information from you, we will explain which information we need and why at the time we collect it.

05. How We Share or Disclose Your Personal Information
We may share or disclose personal information in the following circumstances:

- Service Providers and Processors. We may disclose the categories of personal information described above to third-party service providers or vendors contracted to provide services on our behalf, for example, IT and hosting, data analytics, customer support, call recording, chatbot technology, data enrichment, email fulfillment, and payment services.

- Additional Disclosures. We may also ask for your consent to disclose your information to other unaffiliated third parties that are not described elsewhere in this Privacy Policy.
06. Sale and Sharing of Personal Information
Under the CCPA/CPRA and certain other U.S. state privacy laws, the terms "sale" and "share" have specific statutory meanings. "Sale" generally means the exchange of personal information for monetary or other valuable consideration. "Share" generally refers to the disclosure of personal information to a third party for cross-context behavioral advertising, whether or not for consideration. See California Civil Code section 1798.140(ad) and (ah).
We do not sell personal information for monetary consideration. However, our use of advertising and analytics cookies, pixels, tags, and similar tracking technologies on our website constitutes a "sale" or "share" of personal information under the CCPA/CPRA and analogous state privacy laws, by transferring online identifiers, IP address, device information, and browsing activity to third parties for cross-context behavioral advertising and lead-generation purposes.
6.1 Categories of Personal Information Sold or Shared
The categories of personal information involved in such sale or sharing are: identifiers (including online identifiers, IP address, and device identifiers); internet or other electronic network activity information; commercial information; and inferences drawn from the foregoing. We do not sell, rent, or share your mobile number or text messaging consent with third parties or affiliates for their marketing purposes. Information collected through our messaging program is used solely for us to provide the messaging services to which you have consented.
6.2 Categories of Third Parties to Whom We Sell or Share
The categories of third parties to whom we sell or share are those listed in Section 5.
6.3 Sensitive Personal Information
We do not sell or share sensitive personal information except as expressly stated in Section 3.2.
6.4 Children
We do not knowingly sell or share the personal information of persona under sixteen (16) years of age. Where we obtain actual knowledge that a person is between thirteen (13) and sixteen (16) years of age, we will not sell or share that person’s personal information without their affirmative opt-in consent. For persons under thirteen (13) years of age, we will not sell or share without the affirmative opt-in consent of a parent or guardian. In addition, we do not knowingly sell the personal information of, share the personal information of, or process for targeted advertising the personal information of, any person under eighteen (18) years of age, consistent with the heightened protections for minors under the Connecticut Data Privacy Act (as amended by Public Act 25-113, effective July 1, 2026), the Maryland Online Data Privacy Act, and analogous state laws.
6.5 How to Opt-Out
You have the right to opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information. To exercise this right, you may:
- click the "Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information" link in the footer of our website, which opens our "Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information" page. That page effectuates the opt-out directly through our consent management platform’s preference controls; you are not required to create an account, and we request no more information than is necessary to effectuate your request.
- enable a recognized opt-out preference signal, such as the Global Privacy Control (GPC), in your browser
- submit a request via the methods described in Section 12 (Our Contact Details), including by emailing privacy@reckner.com or, for California residents, calling +1 (212) 257-0505.
Consistent with California Civil Code section 1798.135(b)(1) and 11 California Code of Regulations section 7025, we process Global Privacy Control signals and other recognized opt-out preference signals as a valid request to opt out of sale and sharing.
07. Data Retention
We retain personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, subject to legal and contractual requirements. Our general retention practices are as follows:
- Account Data: account profile and identifier information, integration data, and other content stored as part of a registrant account (where we act as the controller or business in regard to such content) are retained for the duration of the registrant’s active relationship with us.
- Operational Logs, System Logs, and Backups: retained not more than thirty-six (36) months from the date of creation, unless a longer retention period is required for security investigation, legal hold, or regulatory compliance.
- Website Analytics, Prospect Data, and Lead Records: retained for as long as is reasonably necessary for sales and marketing follow-up, and in any event not more than thirty-six (36) months from the last point of engagement, after which time records are anonymized or deleted.
- Cookie Data: retained for up to thirteen (13) months; session cookies expire on session close, and persistent cookies expire as described in our cookie preferences tool.
When personal information is no longer required, we will delete, anonymize, or otherwise securely dispose of it, except as required or permitted by applicable law. To request deletion of personal information, please contact privacy@reckner.com.
08. Security
We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction.
These measures may include:
- Encryption of data at rest and in transit where appropriate.
- Access controls and authentication mechanisms.
- Monitoring and logging of system activity.
- Security testing and vulnerability management processes.
We maintain policies and procedures designed to ensure appropriate access controls and data protection practices. However, the security of information transmitted through the internet can never be guaranteed. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your password or other forms of authentication involved in accessing password-protected or secured resources.
09. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
We and our service providers and advertising partners use cookies, pixels, tags, web beacons, local storage, and similar tracking technologies on our website to operate and improve our services, to support analytics and functionality, and to enable targeted advertising.
As described in Section 6 (Sale and Sharing of Personal Information), certain of these technologies result in a "sale" or "share" of personal information under the CCPA/CPRA and analogous state privacy laws.
9.1 Consent Management Platform. Our website uses a consent management platform with region-based configurations: visitors located in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland are shown a cookie consent banner, and non-strictly-necessary cookies and tracking technologies are not deployed for those visitors unless and until they affirmatively consent; visitors located elsewhere, including in the United States, may opt out at any time as described in Section 6.5. Consent choices are logged and may be changed or withdrawn at any time through the preference center available in the website footer.
9.2 Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control. Our website treats an enabled Global Privacy Control (GPC) browser signal as a valid request to opt out of the sale and sharing of personal information, effectuated automatically through our consent management platform, as described in Section 6 (Sale and Sharing of Personal Information). Our website does not currently respond to "Do Not Track" (DNT) signals. This disclosure is made pursuant to California Business and Professions Code section 22575(b)(5).
10. International Data Transfers
10.1 Recipient Jurisdictions
Personal information that we collect, including personal information of data subjects located in the European Economic Area ("EEA"), the United Kingdom, and Switzerland, is processed and stored in the United States. The processing and storage of personal information in the United States may involve transfers to vendors and service providers identified in this Privacy Policy.
Our use of identity-resolution services involves transfers to U.S. recipients.
10.2 Adequacy Status of Recipient Jurisdictions
The United States is not the subject of a current European Commission adequacy decision under Article 45 of the GDPR covering all categories of U.S. data importers, although the EU–U.S. Data Privacy Framework provides a partial adequacy mechanism for U.S. organizations that have self-certified and remain in good standing, as confirmed by European Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2023/1795 of July 10, 2023. The United Kingdom extension to the EU–U.S. Data Privacy Framework provides analogous adequacy under the UK GDPR for participating U.S. recipients, as confirmed by the UK Secretary of State's Data Protection (Adequacy) (United States of America) Regulations 2023 (SI 2023/1028), effective October 12, 2023. Switzerland has issued an analogous adequacy decision recognizing the Swiss–U.S. Data Privacy Framework for participating U.S. recipients, effective September 15, 2024.
10.3 Safeguards
Where required by applicable law, we implement appropriate safeguards under Article 46 of the GDPR (and analogous provisions of the UK GDPR and Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection) to protect the personal information of EEA, UK, and Swiss data subjects when it is transferred to recipients in jurisdictions not covered by an adequacy decision. These safeguards include:
- The European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses adopted by Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2021/914 of June 4, 2021, executed in the appropriate module (controller-to-controller, controller-to-processor, processor-to-processor, or processor-to-controller) with each non-adequate data importer
- The United Kingdom International Data Transfer Agreement and the UK International Data Transfer Addendum to the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses, issued by the Information Commissioner's Office under section 119A of the Data Protection Act 2018 and effective March 21, 2022, for transfers from the United Kingdom
- Where applicable and where the U.S. recipient has self-certified and remains in good standing, reliance on the EU–U.S. Data Privacy Framework, its UK extension, and its Swiss extension, as listed at www.dataprivacyframework.gov
- Supplementary technical and organizational measures consistent with the European Data Protection Board's Recommendations 01/2020 on measures that supplement transfer tools to ensure compliance with the EU level of protection of personal data (adopted in final form June 18, 2021), including encryption in transit and at rest, role-based access controls, access logging, and contractual restrictions on government-access disclosures
10.4 Particular Notes Regarding Identity-Resolution Vendors
Our use of identity-resolution services for EEA, UK, and Swiss visitors is conditional on consent and on the transfer safeguards described in Section 10.3 above. EEA, UK, and Swiss visitors who wish to limit cookie-related transfers may use the controls described in our consent management platform.
