1. Who we are
Peptide Price Lab ("PPL," "we," "us," or "our") is an independent editorial publication and price-comparison tool operated by CBCS, LLC, a Texas limited liability company. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have. It covers our website at peptidepricelab.com, our web application at app.peptidepricelab.com, and our email newsletter (the "Saturday Dispatch") — together, the "Services."
If you have any questions, contact us at editor@peptidepricelab.com.
2. The short version
- We are a free, vendor-neutral calculator and editorial site. We make our money from honest affiliate codes, not from selling your data.
- We do not sell or rent your personal information.
- The optional Dose Tracker stores health-related information you enter yourself. It is private to your account, we never transmit it to third parties, and you can export or delete it at any time. See §7 — it's the most important section if you use that feature.
- We use cookies and analytics (Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity) on our general site, and affiliate-link cookies when you click a vendor code. None of that tracking is applied to your Dose Tracker health data.
3. Information you provide to us
- Account information. If you create an account to use the app, we collect your email address and authentication credentials (passwords are handled by our authentication provider; we do not store them in readable form).
- Newsletter signup. If you subscribe to the Saturday Dispatch, we collect your email address. You can unsubscribe in one click at any time.
- Dose Tracker entries (optional, health-related). If you choose to use the Dose Tracker, we store what you enter: compounds, amounts and units, dates, injection sites, notes, optional measurements (such as weight or resting heart rate), inventory, and any schedule you create. This is covered in detail in §7.
- Communications. If you email us or reply to the Dispatch, we keep your message and contact details to respond.
4. Information we collect automatically
When you use the Services, we and our analytics providers may collect:
- Device and log data — IP address, browser and device type, operating system, and access times.
- Usage data — pages and features viewed, links clicked, and general interaction patterns.
- Session analytics — Microsoft Clarity may record anonymized session activity such as page interactions, scrolling, and heatmaps to help us understand how the site is used.
5. How we use information
We use the information we collect to:
- Provide, operate, and improve the Services;
- Create and maintain your account and the Dose Tracker;
- Send the Saturday Dispatch and respond to your messages;
- Understand how the site is used so we can make it better;
- Maintain security, prevent abuse, and debug problems; and
- Comply with legal obligations.
We do not use your Dose Tracker health data for any of the analytics, advertising, or tracking described in §4 and §6.
6. Cookies, analytics, and affiliate links
We use cookies and similar technologies on peptidepricelab.com and app.peptidepricelab.com:
- Functional cookies — needed to keep you signed in and to make the site work. These can't be turned off without breaking core features.
- Analytics cookies — Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity help us measure traffic and understand usage. Clarity may capture anonymized session recordings and heatmaps.
- Affiliate-link cookies — when you click a vendor link or use one of our discount codes, the vendor (or its affiliate network) may set a cookie so any resulting purchase is credited to us. These cookies are set by the vendor's site under the vendor's own privacy policy, not ours. Using our codes never costs you more.
You can control cookies through your browser settings, and where required we will offer a cookie banner or opt-out. Blocking analytics cookies will not affect your ability to use the Services. Cookies and analytics are not applied to your Dose Tracker health data.
7. Dose Tracker & health data
The Dose Tracker is an optional, self-directed logging tool. Any health-related information in it — compounds, amounts, dates, injection sites, notes, and optional measurements such as weight or resting heart rate — is entered by you, about you. We do not obtain it from any healthcare provider, pharmacy, or third party, and we do not treat it as a medical record.
A note on HIPAA. PPL is not a doctor, hospital, insurer, or other "covered entity," so HIPAA does not apply to this data. Please don't assume HIPAA-style protections; instead, the protections that apply are the ones described here.
Consent. Before you use the Dose Tracker for the first time, we record that you consented to its terms, the date and version of that consent, and your confirmation that you are 18 or older. You can withdraw consent at any time by deleting your data and discontinuing use.
How it is stored. Your entries are stored in our cloud database, scoped to your account so no other user can access them, and protected by access controls and encryption at rest. We do not use end-to-end or "zero-knowledge" encryption, and we describe our protections honestly rather than overstating them. Information sent between your device and our servers is protected in transit by HTTPS.
What we do NOT do. We do not sell your health data. We do not share it with advertisers. We do not run Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity, or any other analytics or tracking on your Dose Tracker entries. We do not transmit your entries to any third party.
Exporting your data. You can export your own entries at any time as a file (for example, a CSV or table). The export is generated entirely within your browser and downloaded by you; PPL does not send it anywhere or keep a copy of the exported file. The export is simply a copy of the information you entered, and PPL does not verify, interpret, or vouch for it. What you do with your exported file is up to you.
Deleting your data. You control your entries. You can delete any individual entry, wipe your entire Dose Tracker log from Settings, and deleting your account removes your Dose Tracker data as part of that process.
Breach notification. Because your Dose Tracker data is health-related and stored in our cloud, the FTC's Health Breach Notification Rule may apply. If a qualifying breach of this data occurs, we will notify affected users (and regulators where required) as the law requires.
8. How we share information
We do not sell or rent your personal information. We share it only as follows:
- Service providers ("sub-processors"). Companies that run the Services on our behalf under confidentiality obligations — for example, our hosting and database/authentication provider (Supabase), our analytics providers (Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity), and our email newsletter platform. They may process data only to provide their service to us.
- Affiliate networks. When you click an affiliate link or use a code, the vendor and its affiliate network process that click under their own policies.
- Legal and safety. When required by law, to respond to lawful requests, or to protect our rights, users, or the public.
- Business transfer. If PPL is involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, information may transfer as part of that transaction, subject to this Policy.
We never include Dose Tracker health data in any of the above except the hosting/database provider that stores it for us.
9. Third-party vendors and links
PPL is an independent, vendor-neutral publication. We link to peptide vendors, some through affiliate codes. We do not sell peptides, and we do not control those vendors' websites, products, or privacy practices. When you leave our site for a vendor, that vendor's own terms and privacy policy govern. We are not responsible for their content or practices.
10. Data retention
We keep personal information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the Services, then delete or anonymize it within a reasonable period, unless a longer period is required by law. You can delete your Dose Tracker data and your account at any time (see §7 and §11).
11. Your rights and choices
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:
- Access the personal information we hold about you;
- Correct inaccurate information;
- Delete your information;
- Port your information to another service (the Dose Tracker export supports this directly);
- Opt out of the newsletter (one-click unsubscribe); and
- Restrict or object to certain processing.
California (CCPA/CPRA). To the extent these laws apply to us, California residents have the rights above and the right not to be discriminated against for exercising them. We do not sell or "share" personal information as those terms are defined under California law.
EEA/UK (GDPR). If you are in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, our lawful bases for processing are your consent (e.g., the newsletter and the Dose Tracker), the performance of our agreement with you (operating your account), and our legitimate interests (securing and improving the Services). You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data-protection authority.
To exercise any of these rights, email editor@peptidepricelab.com. We will respond as required by applicable law.
12. Children's privacy
The Services are intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18, and the Dose Tracker is restricted to users who confirm they are 18 or older. If you believe a minor has provided us information, contact us and we will delete it.
13. International users
We operate from the United States, and your information is processed and stored there. If you access the Services from outside the U.S., you understand your information will be transferred to and handled in the U.S., where data-protection laws may differ from those in your country.
14. Changes to this Policy
We may update this Policy from time to time. We will post the new version here and update the "Last updated" date. If a change is material, we will provide more prominent notice (such as a banner or email).
