Information Collected Via Technology
As you use these pages, certain message delivery information may be passively collected and stored on GoMo Health’s or our service providers’ server logs, including your Internet protocol address, browser type and operating system.

Persistent Cookies can be removed by following the Internet browser’s help file directions. Participants may manage cookie preferences via browser settings (see http://www.aboutcookies.org for more information). By using the program, you understand and agree that certain information about you likely will remain on your computer, your ISP, and other intermediary internet locations, even if you take steps to delete that information.
