Wellness product disclaimer
Our red light therapy products are intended for general wellness use only. They are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. We are not a healthcare provider, and we are not a HIPAA-covered entity. Information you share with our customer support team about health conditions, symptoms, or medical history is treated as customer support information - not as protected health information under HIPAA.
Please consult your physician before using our products if you have any medical condition, are pregnant, have a pacemaker or other implanted device, take photosensitizing medication, or have any concerns about light therapy.

Reviews are publicly visible and indexed by search engines. If you want to share a detailed health-related experience, please contact support privately at support@primalon.co instead.

If you arrive at the Site via an affiliate link, we may use cookies or similar tracking to:

9) U.S. state privacy rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights under U.S. state privacy laws - including California (CCPA/CPRA), Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, Utah, Texas, Oregon, Montana, Iowa, Delaware, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Tennessee, Minnesota, Maryland, Indiana, Kentucky, and Rhode Island.

"Sale" / "Share" and targeted advertising
We do not sell personal information for money. However, some privacy laws define "sale" or "share" broadly to include disclosures for cross-context behavioral advertising (targeted advertising), such as sharing identifiers with advertising partners via pixels or cookies.
How to opt out
You can opt out of "sale/share" and targeted advertising by:
- Using the "Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information" link in our Site footer or cookie banner
- Emailing us at support@primalon.co with subject line "Privacy Request – Opt Out"
- Enabling the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal in a supported browser
Global Privacy Control (GPC)
Where required, we treat the GPC signal as a request to opt out of "sale/share" and targeted advertising for that browser/device. GPC applies per browser/device and may not persist if you clear cookies or use a different device.
Response timeframes
- We will acknowledge most privacy requests within 10 business days.
- We will respond substantively within 45 days (with one possible 45-day extension for complex requests, with notice).

11) Sensitive personal information and health-related information
Some U.S. state laws define health-related information as "sensitive personal information."
We do not intentionally collect health information to infer characteristics about you or to build health profiles. However, because our products are used for recovery and wellness purposes, customers sometimes voluntarily share information about pain, injuries, sleep, stress, or wellness goals when contacting customer support, leaving reviews, or responding to surveys.
We use this information only to:
- respond to the specific support request
- improve product instructions, FAQs, and educational content (in aggregated, de-identified form)
- process returns or warranty requests
We do not:
- sell or share health-related information with advertising partners
- use it to target ads or build advertising audiences
- combine it with advertising identifiers
Please do not include detailed medical history, diagnoses, prescription information, or other sensitive health details in public reviews or social media tags.
12) Data retention
We retain personal information only as long as necessary for the purposes described:
- Order records: approximately 7 years (for tax, accounting, and warranty purposes)
- Marketing subscriber data (email/SMS): until you unsubscribe, plus approximately 30 days for suppression-list compliance
- Customer support communications: approximately 2–3 years after resolution
- Web analytics data: approximately 14–26 months (matching default analytics retention)
- Account data: for the life of the account, plus a reasonable wind-down period after closure
- Cookies and tracking data: varies by cookie (session cookies expire when you close your browser; persistent cookies typically expire within 13 months)
We may retain information longer where required by law, to resolve disputes, prevent fraud, or enforce agreements.
13) Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information, including encryption in transit, restricted access controls, and use of reputable processors (Shopify, Klaviyo, Stripe, PayPal). No system is 100% secure, but we work to protect your data and limit access to authorized personnel and trusted vendors.
14) Children's privacy
Our Services are not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information, please contact us at support@primalon.co so we can delete it.
15) International visitors
Primalon currently ships within the United States. If you access the Site from outside the United States, your information will be processed in the United States, where privacy laws may differ from those in your country. By using the Site, you understand that your information will be processed in the U.S.
16) Notice of Financial Incentive (California residents)
If we offer a discount, free shipping, free gift, or other benefit in exchange for joining our email or SMS list, this may be considered a "financial incentive" under California law.
- What we collect: name, email, and/or phone number
- What you get: the offered discount or benefit
- How the value is calculated: based on the value of the discount/benefit and the estimated value of the contact information to our marketing program
