What Meta says
“You represent and warrant that you will not share Business Tool Data with us that (i) you know or reasonably should know is from or about children under the age of 13, (ii) includes Contact Information not hashed in accordance with Section 1.a.i, (iii) includes identifiers we do not permit, such as social security or credit card numbers, or (iv) includes or is based on, directly or otherwise, health information, financial information, consumer report information, or other categories of sensitive information (including any information defined as sensitive under applicable laws, regulations and applicable industry guidelines).”
“The names you choose and criteria you establish for your events, conversions, and any custom audiences you create must not reflect, imply or be based on any category of information described in this Section 1.h.”
What this means for ad tracking
Meta is where your conversion data ends up, so the question is not whether Meta will protect PHI but what you send it. A browser pixel sends the page address, the event name and identifiers with every conversion, and on a healthcare site those can describe a condition or a treatment.
Meta's own terms rule out health information, so the workable route is to send Meta conversions that carry none: a neutral event name, hashed identifiers and no page details that reveal care.
Curve Compliance sends Meta conversions that way: server-side in place of the pixel, with neutral event names, PHI-like pattern detection and SHA-256 hashed identifiers, under a BAA it signs on every plan. Book a call to see it on your own funnel.
How Curve helps
- Curve sends your Meta conversions server-side, in place of the Meta pixel, with neutral event names and SHA-256 hashed identifiers.
- PHI-like pattern detection checks every event before it goes out, and neutral event names keep conditions and treatments out of what the platforms see.
- Attribution is kept through booking tools, so a booked appointment is credited to the ad that brought the patient in.
- Consent management for your site, alongside the tracking.
- A HIPAA-compliant setup done by Curve's team, in about a week, with a BAA signed on every plan.
