Our promise to you

Collecting information about you

  • How we may collect information about you on our Site

    Currently, if you wish to wish to engage in any transactions with us via the Site, such as to review your prescriptions online or receive a refill reminder, and if you click on one of our links to do so, you will be taken to the Walgreens.com website where you can make those transactions. In those situations, we do not collect any information from you on our Site. When you provide your information on the Walgreens.com website, the Walgreens’ Online Privacy and Security Policy will apply, and not our Site’s Privacy Policy. Note that when you click on a link on our Site that takes you to the Walgreens.com website, in certain circumstances once you are on that website, such as if you log into your pharmacy account and submit information regarding a prescription order, the information you submit on Walgreens.com is subject to the requirements of the Health Information Portability and Accountability Act (commonly known as “HIPAA”). In those circumstances, Walgreens Notice of Privacy Practices and not its Online Privacy and Security Policy will apply. Please be aware that we are members of Walgreens’ affiliated covered entity, which is a group of organizations under common ownership or control who designate themselves as a single affiliated covered entity for purposes of compliance with HIPAA and who use the same HIPAA Notice of Privacy Practices. As a result, the terms of our Notice of Privacy Practices, are the same as those of Walgreens. If you have questions about which policy applies to the information you have submitted, please do not hesitate to Contact Us.

These third parties may collect information about your use of our services over time and that information may be combined with information collected on different websites and online services. These third party advertisers may be participants in the Network Advertising Initiative and/or the Self-Regulatory Program for Online Behavioral Advertising, which allow users to opt out of ad targeting from participating companies. To learn more about interest-based advertising, or to opt-out of having your web browsing information used by certain third party advertisers for behavioral advertising purposes, go to www.aboutads.info/choices or http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/.

    Please Note: When you “opt-out” of receiving interest-based advertisements, this does not mean you will no longer see advertisements from us. It means that the online ads that you do see will not be tailored for you based on your particular interests. We may still collect information about you for any purpose permitted under the Policy, including for analytics and fraud prevention.

  • Our “Do Not Track” Policy
