This Cookie Policy explains how EDS Connective, LLC (“EDS Connective,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit our website (the “Site”). It should be read in conjunction with our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service, which govern the collection, use, and protection of your personal information.
Because our Site relates to health conditions, your browsing activity may be considered sensitive information under applicable state privacy laws. We take this classification seriously and will not activate non-essential cookies without your affirmative consent.
Cookies are small text files placed on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites function efficiently, remember your preferences, and provide information to the site operator. Similar technologies include pixels (small image files embedded in web pages or emails), web beacons, local storage, and scripts that collect information about your browsing activity.
We use cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:
To operate the Site. Certain cookies are essential for the Site to function correctly. Without them, features such as account login, form submission, and navigation would not work.
To understand Site usage. We use analytics cookies to understand how visitors interact with the Site, including which pages are visited, how long visitors spend on each page, and how they arrived at the Site. This helps us improve the Site’s functionality and content.
To deliver and measure advertising. We use advertising cookies and pixels to deliver targeted advertisements on third-party platforms, measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns, and build audience profiles for advertising purposes.
To remember your preferences. We use functional cookies to remember choices you have made (such as cookie consent preferences and language settings) so that we can provide a more personalized experience.
These cookies are essential for the Site to function and cannot be disabled. They enable core functionality such as account authentication, security, form submission, and session management. Because they are necessary for the Site to operate, they do not require your consent.

Because EDS Connective’s Site relates to health conditions, specifically Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and related hypermobility spectrum disorders, your browsing activity on this Site may reveal health-related interests or conditions. Under applicable state privacy laws (including the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), Washington’s My Health My Data Act, and similar frameworks), such data may be classified as sensitive personal information.
For this reason:
When you first visit the Site, you will be presented with a cookie consent mechanism that allows you to accept all cookies, limit cookies to those essential for Site functionality, or customize which categories to enable. Your choice is stored and respected for subsequent visits. Non-essential cookies will not activate until and unless you affirmatively consent.
You may change your cookie preferences at any time by clicking the “Cookie Settings” link in the Site footer. Changing your preferences will apply prospectively, cookies already placed may remain on your device until they expire or you delete them manually.
Most web browsers allow you to manage cookies through browser settings. You can typically:
Please note that blocking or deleting cookies may affect Site functionality. If you disable strictly necessary cookies, certain features of the Site may not work correctly.
For instructions on managing cookies, consult your browser’s help documentation or settings menu.
We recognize and honor the Global Privacy Control signal. If your browser transmits a GPC signal, we will treat it as a valid opt-out of the sale or sharing of personal information collected through cookies, as required by applicable state law.
Because there is no common industry standard for interpreting Do Not Track (DNT) browser signals, we do not currently respond to DNT signals independently. However, we honor GPC signals as described above.
Some cookies on the Site are placed by third parties whose services we have integrated. These third parties may use the information collected through their cookies for their own purposes, subject to their own privacy policies. We encourage you to review the privacy and cookie policies of these third parties:
We do not control the information collected by third-party cookies or how those third parties use it beyond what is disclosed in this policy.
We use a cookie management platform to manage consent collection, preference storage, and cookie activation across the Site. This platform ensures that non-essential cookies are blocked by default and activated only after you provide affirmative consent.
Information collected through cookies and similar technologies may include:
This information is used as described in the “How We Use Cookies” section above and in our Privacy Policy. Where this data constitutes personal information under applicable law, it is subject to all rights and protections described in the Privacy Policy.
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use, changes in technology, or changes in applicable law. If we make material changes, we will post the updated policy on the Site with a revised “Last Updated” date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
