The RX Index is a pricing intelligence and comparison resource for GLP-1 telehealth providers. We are not a medical provider, pharmacy, insurer, or prescribing clinician.
This Cookie Policy supplements our Privacy Policy, Consumer Health Data Privacy Policy, Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information page, and Limit the Use of My Sensitive Personal Information page.

3. Categories of cookies we use
We may use the following categories of cookies and similar technologies.
Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies are required for the website to function and cannot be disabled through our cookie banner.
They may be used to:
- Remember your privacy choices.
- Remember whether you dismissed a notice.
- Keep the site secure.
- Prevent fraud or abuse.
- Enable basic site functionality.
- Support form submission, privacy controls, and site operations.
Strictly necessary cookies do not track you for advertising.
Analytics cookies
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use The RX Index.
These cookies may tell us:
- Which pages are visited.
- How users move through the website.
- Which guides or tools are useful.
- Which pages have technical issues.
- How users interact with buttons, links, and page elements.
We use Google Analytics 4 for analytics when consent is granted.

_ga,_ga_<container-id> - Default cookie duration: up to 2 years, subject to browser limits, user settings, and our configuration
- Purpose: measuring site usage and improving website performance
Analytics cookies are set only after you grant consent where consent is required.
Session-replay cookies and similar technologies
Session-replay tools help us understand how visitors interact with our website so we can diagnose layout problems, confusing flows, broken elements, and usability issues.
We use Microsoft Clarity for session replay and behavior analytics when consent is granted.
- Provider: Microsoft Corporation
- Purpose: diagnosing site usability issues and improving user experience
- Data collected may include: page interactions, scrolling, clicks, device information, browser information, and approximate interaction patterns
Input fields and sensitive content should be masked or excluded from recording.
Session-replay technologies are set only after you grant consent where consent is required.
Affiliate and outbound-link tracking
Some links on The RX Index are affiliate links.
When you click an affiliate or provider link, you may leave The RX Index and visit a third-party website. That third party may receive standard referral information, such as the fact that you came from The RX Index.
We do not transmit your Find My Path quiz answers to affiliate partners when you click a recommended provider link.
Any information you provide directly to a provider, pharmacy, telehealth platform, or other third-party website is governed by that third party's own privacy policy.
4. Cookies and health-related activity
Some pages on The RX Index discuss health-related topics, including GLP-1 medications, weight-loss treatment options, telehealth providers, eligibility factors, and safety considerations.
If analytics or session-replay tools are enabled, website activity on health-related pages could create health-related inferences, such as interest in a medication, condition, provider route, or treatment category.
For this reason, we treat health-related browsing inferences with additional care.
You can disable analytics, session replay, pixels, and similar non-essential technologies at any time through Cookie Settings.
5. Cookies and consumer health data
Some cookie-based information may be considered consumer health data under certain state privacy laws when it is linked or reasonably linkable to health-related activity.
For more information about how we collect, use, share, and protect consumer health data, please visit our Consumer Health Data Privacy Policy.
We do not sell consumer health data.
We do not use consumer health data to target advertising to you.
6. Cookies and sensitive personal information
Some cookie-based information may be considered sensitive personal information under California law when it is linked to health-related activity or health-related inferences.
For information about limiting the use and disclosure of sensitive personal information, please visit our Limit the Use of My Sensitive Personal Information page.
7. Cookies and sale or sharing under California law
We do not sell personal information for money.
However, some analytics, pixels, session-replay tools, or similar technologies may be considered “sharing” of personal information under California law if they are used for cross-context behavioral advertising, profiling, or similar purposes.
You can opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information by visiting our Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information page or by using Cookie Settings.
8. How to manage your cookie choices
You can manage your cookie preferences at any time by selecting “Cookie Settings” in the footer of The RX Index.
You may choose to:
- Accept all cookies.
- Reject all non-essential cookies.
- Customize your cookie preferences.
- Disable analytics cookies.
- Disable session-replay cookies.
- Disable similar non-essential technologies.
Your choices apply to the browser and device you use to make the selection. If you use a different browser, clear your cookies, use a different device, or visit in private browsing mode, you may need to set your preferences again.
9. Global Privacy Control
If your browser or browser extension sends a Global Privacy Control signal, we treat that signal as a valid request to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information for that browser and device.
When we receive a valid Global Privacy Control signal, we will apply the same rejection to non-essential technologies that may be considered sale or sharing under applicable law.
10. Do Not Track
Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” signal.
We do not currently respond to browser Do Not Track signals because there is no consistent industry standard for how websites should interpret them.
We do honor Global Privacy Control signals where required by applicable law.
11. Third-party cookies and services
Some cookies and similar technologies are provided by third parties.
These third parties may process information according to their own privacy policies, terms, and technical settings.
Third-party services we may use include:
- Google Analytics 4 for analytics and website performance measurement.
- Microsoft Clarity for session replay, behavior analytics, and usability diagnostics.
- Affiliate-link or referral-tracking tools for outbound provider links.
- Website hosting, security, database, form, and email service providers needed to operate the site.
We require service providers to process information only for the services they provide to us or for other purposes allowed by law.
12. Cookie retention
Cookie duration depends on the type of cookie, your browser settings, your device settings, and the provider's configuration.
Strictly necessary cookies may last only for the session or may remain longer to remember privacy choices and site settings.
Google Analytics cookies such as _ga and _ga_<container-id> may last up to 2 years by default, unless shortened by browser limits, user settings, or our configuration.
Analytics data retention inside Google Analytics is controlled separately from browser cookie duration.
Session-replay and similar technologies may use cookies or identifiers with durations set by the provider or by our configuration.
You can delete cookies through your browser settings at any time.
13. How to delete cookies in your browser
Most browsers allow you to delete or block cookies through browser settings.
Your browser may allow you to:
- Delete existing cookies.
- Block cookies from specific websites.
- Block third-party cookies.
- Clear cookies when you close the browser.
- Use private or incognito browsing mode.
- Set privacy controls or browser-level opt-out signals.
Blocking some cookies may affect site functionality or prevent your privacy preferences from being remembered.

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time.
If we make material changes, we will update the “Last updated” date above.
