Privacy & Compliance

SponsoredTesting.com helps clinicians find sponsor‑supported diagnostic testing programs. This page explains how we handle privacy, data, and compliance—and how optional digital ordering via Casandra fits in.

Last updated: 2/4/2026

What SponsoredTesting.com Is (and Isn't)

  • Directory & education only. We publish program pages that describe eligibility, participating labs, and access steps.
  • No medical advice. Content is informational and not a substitute for professional judgment.
  • No PHI processing. SponsoredTesting.com does not collect, store, or transmit Protected Health Information (PHI).

Ordering & PHI Boundaries

  • Default flow: When a provider selects "Order," they are taken to a participating lab's own ordering system. PHI is handled by that lab, not by SponsoredTesting.com.
  • Casandra add‑on (optional): If a program enables EHR/API digital ordering via Casandra, PHI is processed by Casandra as the lab's HIPAA Business Associate and sent directly to the lab.
  • Separation of systems: SponsoredTesting.com and Casandra operate on separate infrastructure, domains, and policies.

Data We Collect on SponsoredTesting.com

a) Site analytics (aggregate)

  • Page views, category/search exposure, and outbound click counts
  • UTM parameters for channel reporting (aggregate only)
  • No PHI/PII is required to browse program pages

b) Provider info‑request module (Premium pages)

  • Fields collected: name, work email, organization, role, region, non‑PHI message
  • Explicit warning: "Please do not include patient details or PHI."
  • Submissions are delivered to the sponsor's inbox/CRM; SponsoredTesting.com does not store payloads (only short‑lived spam hashes).

c) Server logs & cookies

  • Standard logs (IP truncated/rotated where feasible), timestamps, user agent
  • First‑party session/analytics cookies only; no advertising cookies or cross‑site retargeting

Reporting We Share with Sponsors

  • Aggregate, de‑identified metrics (e.g., page views, outbound clicks, top referrers/UTMs)
  • Small‑cell suppression: hide/roll‑up small counts (default threshold N < 20) and suppress complementary cells to prevent back‑solving
  • No provider‑level reports; no PHI/PII
  • If Casandra ordering is enabled: program‑level aggregate order throughput may be reported via the lab's workflow. PHI is processed by Casandra as the lab's BA.

Editorial & Acceptance Standards

  • Clinician‑attested medical eligibility (no broad "screen everyone" language).
  • Commercial, CLIA/CAP laboratory testing (not program‑exclusive one‑off assays).
  • No patient/payer billing for sponsor‑funded services; no collection/ancillary fees passed along.
  • Counseling limited to test/result education (no therapy promotion in counseling).
  • De‑identified, aggregate analytics only; no patient/provider targeting.

Security & Retention

  • Access controls, encryption in transit, least‑privilege administration.
  • Minimal retention: aggregate analytics for trends; spam hashes 7–14 days.
  • We don't store PHI; business‑contact submissions (if any) are forwarded to sponsor systems.

Your Choices

  • Browse program pages without an account.
  • Manage first‑party analytics cookies via your browser; core features remain available.

Regional Privacy Rights (e.g., CCPA/CPRA, GDPR)

  • We process limited business‑contact info (if you submit it) and aggregate analytics.
  • Request access, correction, or deletion of your business‑contact submission by emailing us; we'll verify and respond consistent with applicable law.

Casandra Add‑On (HIPAA specifics)

  • When enabled by a participating lab, Casandra operates as the Business Associate to that lab under a BAA.
  • PHI entered for digital ordering is processed by Casandra and transmitted directly to the lab per the lab's standard workflows.
  • SponsoredTesting.com remains outside the PHI flow.
