Privacy, please

As healthcare marketers face mounting pressure from FTC enforcement of HIPAA, shifting social media platform rules, and evolving state privacy laws, many of their go-to analytics and advertising tools have become risky or unusable. The cost of noncompliance is rising—just ask the companies facing multimillion-dollar fines and public fallout.

Having seen the growing necessity of compliance across the market, Rock Health Capital is excited to announce our latest investment in Ours Privacy. Built by veteran digital health marketers who faced this problem firsthand, Ours Privacy is a full-stack privacy solution purpose-built for healthcare marketers navigating today’s complex regulatory landscape. Ours Privacy has grown rapidly and is now trusted by many of the nation’s largest digital health companies, health systems, and medical brands—helping them reach patients more effectively while protecting trust.

Read the announcement for more about our investment in Ours Privacy—and why we believe privacy infrastructure is essential for the future of healthcare engagement.
