For additional information about cookies and browser controls, visitors may review resources such as www.allaboutcookies.org or browser-specific help pages.
8. Third-Party Cookies and Embedded Content
Bloom Value may use third-party services for analytics, embedded content, website security, marketing, social media integration, and performance monitoring. These third parties may place cookies or similar technologies on your device when you interact with Bloom Value website content.
Third-party providers are responsible for their own privacy and cookie practices. Bloom Value reviews third-party services through its vendor management and security review process where applicable, including assessment of data use, privacy terms, security safeguards, retention practices, and compliance obligations.
9. Personal Information, PHI, and Sensitive Data
Bloom Value does not intend to collect Protected Health Information (PHI) through cookies on its public website. Visitors should not submit PHI, patient data, medical record information, or other sensitive regulated data through general website forms unless Bloom Value has provided a specifically authorized and secure method for doing so.
If any website interaction could involve personal information, Bloom Value will process that information in accordance with applicable privacy obligations, contractual requirements, Bloom Value’s Security Compliance Requirement, applicable contractual obligations, and internal data classification and handling procedures.
10. Security and Privacy Safeguards
Bloom Value applies reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards to protect website data and cookie-related information. These safeguards may include secure configuration, access control, encryption where appropriate, logging and monitoring, vendor due diligence, least-privilege access, and incident response procedures.
Cookie data and related website analytics should be limited to the minimum information needed for the stated purpose. Where feasible, Bloom Value will use aggregation, anonymization, pseudonymization, or IP masking to reduce privacy risk.
11. Retention of Cookie Data
Cookie retention periods vary based on cookie type, purpose, legal requirements, and provider configuration. Session cookies generally expire when the browser session ends. Persistent cookies remain for a defined period or until deleted by the user. Bloom Value will retain cookie-related data only for as long as necessary for the relevant purpose, legal obligation, audit requirement, Bloom Value Security Compliance Requirement, or legitimate business need.
12. Bloom Value Security Compliance Requirement
Bloom Value manages website cookies, tracking technologies, third-party tools, privacy notices, consent records, and related evidence in accordance with Bloom Value’s Security Compliance Requirement. This requirement represents Bloom Value’s consolidated internal standard for security, privacy, governance, audit readiness, vendor oversight, incident response, data protection, and regulatory alignment.
13. Cookie Audit and Review
Bloom Value will review cookies and similar technologies on a periodic basis and whenever material website, vendor, analytics, advertising, or technology changes are introduced. The review should identify cookie names, providers, categories, purposes, data collected, retention periods, whether cookies are first-party or third-party, and whether consent is required.
Cookie audit evidence may include cookie scan reports, vendor review records, consent banner configuration, website change tickets, approval records, screenshots, privacy-policy review notes, and remediation records. Evidence should be retained in accordance with Bloom Value’s audit and compliance evidence-retention process.
