This Notice describes how MITRE uses cookies and tracking technologies on this website, synthetichealth.github.io/synthea. Like many companies, MITRE uses “cookies,” which are small data files that can be sent to your web browser and stored on your computer. MITRE uses cookies to distinguish you from other users of our website and enable us to improve website performance.
These cookies allow us to analyze traffic on the site so that we can measure and improve website performance. These cookies are disabled by default and require your permission before they are activated.
MITRE uses Google Analytics® to measure how users interact with website content. As users navigate between web pages, Google Analytics provides us data, such as applicable URLs, time of visit, time spent on each webpage, type of browser, and type of operating system. With this information, MITRE creates, designs, and updates content based on our user interests. In addition, Google Analytics collects indirectly identifiable information, such as users’ IP addresses, unique IDs, and client IDs. Users who do not want their indirectly identifiable information collected during their visit to our website may opt-out of the Google Analytics tracking service at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout/ or keep performance cookies disabled through our cookie settings.
We request your consent to use performance and functionality cookies before placing them on your device. You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. To enable or disable our use of performance and functionality cookies, please use our cookie banner for cookie settings.
You also may be able to block cookies by activating browser settings that allow you to automatically refuse the placement of cookies. If you use your browser settings to block all cookies, you may not be able to access all or parts of our website.
We share information about your use of our website with our analytics partners and analysts who may combine this information with other data that you provide to them or that they have otherwise collected through your use of their services elsewhere.
You may refer to our Privacy Policy for additional information about our use of third-party services.
Cookies and similar technologies exist for different periods of time, depending on their purpose. For example, a session cookie that enables our website to operate, will only exist on your device while you browse our website, but other cookies will remain on your device for longer, such as some performance cookies, which need to stay on your device so that the website can recognize you when you return.
