What we checked

We looked for a statement about a BAA on PayPal's own pages and could not find one we could quote. These are the pages we checked:

Until PayPal puts a BAA in writing for you, treat it as a tool that has not agreed to protect patient data.

What this means for ad tracking

Some practices take deposits or cash-pay fees through Venmo, and a payment note can name the visit or treatment it was for.

Without a BAA, payment notes should not mention a condition or treatment, and a payment you count as a conversion should reach Meta or Google with a neutral name and only the fields the platform needs.

Curve Compliance closes that gap: it sends the conversion itself server-side, under a BAA it signs on every plan, so your campaigns keep a conversion signal without a pixel carrying patient data. Book a call to see it on your own funnel.

A business associate agreement binds only the vendor that signs it, so each vendor that handles patient information for you needs its own.

How Curve helps

  • Curve gives you a conversion signal that does not depend on Venmo or a browser pixel carrying patient details.
  • Server-side conversion tracking in place of pixels: conversions reach your ad platforms from Curve's server, not from the patient's browser.
  • A fixed field list per platform, so each ad platform receives only the fields set for it.
  • 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.
  • When identifiers are enabled, Curve hashes them with SHA-256.
  • Consent management for your site, alongside the tracking.
  • A HIPAA-compliant setup done by Curve's team, with a BAA signed on every plan.

Can I use Venmo with patient data?

Not until PayPal, which issues Venmo accounts, signs a BAA with you. We could not find a statement offering one on Venmo's own pages, so ask Venmo directly and keep Protected Health Information out of Venmo, including payment notes, until a BAA is in place.

Can I still track ad conversions that come through Venmo?

Yes, when the conversion reaches your ad platforms without health information. Curve sends conversions server-side under a BAA it signs on every plan, with neutral event names and SHA-256 hashed identifiers.

Does Curve Compliance sign a BAA?
