  • Referring websites (where visitors came from)

Minimal Cookie Use: The Bridge Health does not use cookies for tracking, advertising, or user identification.

Essential Cookies Only

We may use essential cookies strictly necessary for website functionality (e.g., security, fraud prevention). These cookies do not collect personal information.

No Consent Required

Because we don't use tracking or advertising cookies, we don't require cookie consent banners under GDPR or CCPA.
