   In a very comprehensive post from the Federal Trade Commission's   
   Office of Technology, the FTC takes what it calls "[a] deep dive into   
   the technical side of FTC's recent cases on digital health platforms,   
   GoodRx & BetterHelp."   
      
   As most readers know, the FTC recently took enforcement action against   
   GoodRx and BetterHelp, two digital healthcare platforms, for allegedly   
   sharing user health data with third parties for advertising. Both   
   cases highlighted the use of third-party tracking pixels, which enable   
   platforms to amass, analyze, and infer information about user   
   activity. The remedies in GoodRx and BetterHelp included bans that   
   place limits on whether and how certain user information may be   
   disclosed for advertising. For GoodRx and BetterHelp, this included a   
   ban on the sharing of health information for any advertising purposes,   
   and the BetterHelp order further bans the disclosure of other personal   
   information for re-targeting.
