What we checked
We looked for a statement about a BAA on WordPress.com's own pages and could not find one we could quote. These are the pages we checked:
Until WordPress.com 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
The site builder is where your pixels live. Built-in marketing integrations and tag settings load ad pixels on every page, including service pages, forms and checkout.
Without a BAA, patient data should not be collected through WordPress.com itself, and browser pixels on service, booking and checkout pages tell ad platforms which page a visitor was on.
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 WordPress.com or a browser pixel carrying patient details.
- Curve tracks conversions server-side in place of pixels, so they reach your ad platforms from Curve's server, not from the patient's browser.
- Curve checks every event for PHI-like patterns before it goes out, and its neutral event names keep conditions and treatments out of what the platforms see.
- Curve hashes identifiers with SHA-256 to each platform's requirements.
- Curve keeps attribution through booking tools, so a booked appointment is credited to the ad that brought the patient in.
- Curve adds consent management to your site, alongside the tracking.
- Curve signs a BAA on every plan, and Curve's team does the HIPAA-compliant setup for you in about a week.

Can I use WordPress.com with patient data?
Not until WordPress.com signs a BAA with you. We could not find a statement from WordPress.com offering one on its own pages, so ask WordPress.com directly and keep Protected Health Information out of WordPress.com until a BAA is in place.
