Cookies and Other Technologies

Like many other websites and online services, we collect information about the Services’ traffic and usage patterns through the use of cookies, Web server logs, web beacons and other, similar technologies. We use this information for various purposes, such as to ensure that the Services function properly, to facilitate navigation, to personalize your experience, to understand use of the Services, to diagnose problems, to measure the success of our marketing campaigns and to otherwise administer the Services.

 

Cookies are small computer files we transfer to your computer’s hard drive. These small text files help us personalize content on our pages and provide programs like e-coupons. Your browser software can be set to reject or accept cookies. Instructions for resetting the browser are available in the Help section of most browsers.

 

Our use of cookies also allows us to collect and retain certain information about a website user, such as the type of Web browser used by our customer. Reviewing our Web server logs and our customers’ use of our site helps us to, among other purposes, statistically monitor how many people are using our site and for what purpose.

 

Your IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to the computer that you are using by your Internet Service Provider. An IP address may be identified and logged automatically in our server log files whenever a user accesses the Services, along with the time of the visit and the page(s) that were visited. Collecting IP addresses is standard practice and is done automatically by many websites, applications and other services. We use IP addresses for purposes such as calculating usage levels of the Services, helping diagnose server problems, and administering the Services.

 

Fraudulent Sites, Spam & Phishing 

Please be aware that there may be fraudulent websites that illegally use CVS logos, and other aspects of the CVS brand. CVS is in no way associated with any fraudulent websites. These sites may circulate their presence on the internet via spam email, or through fraudulent phishing practices.

 

These sites have not been authorized by CVS to use our name and we work aggressively to identify their source and have them shut down. If you are in receipt of this type of spam email, to help protect your privacy you should avoid replying to it or forwarding it to other people.

 

In addition to our official websites, CVS works with a number of third parties that host websites and micro-sites that provide information and services to our customers. If you are concerned that a website or an email may be fraudulent, please contact us at (800) 706-9317.

 

Your Choices and Access

You can take yourself off our email list at any time by updating your Email Communications preference in Personal Notification Settings, found under your Profile Settings, or by following the instructions contained in such emails. If you opt out of receiving emails from us, we may still send you important administrative messages, from which you cannot opt out.

 

You may stop the receipt of push notifications through your mobile device settings.

 

You can request the removal or modification of the personal information you have provided to us by sending an email to the appropriate area under “Contact Us”. For your protection, we may only implement requests with respect to the personal information associated with the particular email address that you use to send us your request, and we may need to verify your identity and obtain information on the context in which you provided your personal information before implementing your request. We will try to accommodate your request as soon as reasonably practicable.

 

You can stop all further collection of information by a CVS mobile application by uninstalling the CVS mobile application.  You may use the standard uninstall process available as part of your mobile device or via the mobile application marketplace or network.

 

Note: If you uninstall the mobile application from your device, the CVS unique identifier associated with your install and/or device might continue to be stored.  If you re-install the application on the same device, CVS might be able to re-associate this identifier to your previous transactions and activities.

 

Please note that we may need to retain certain information for recordkeeping purposes and/or to complete any transactions that you began prior to requesting such change or deletion. There may also be residual information that will remain within our databases and other records, which will not be removed.
