The mission of Healthline’s communities is to empower people who are living with chronic conditions to live beyond their diagnosis through compassion, support, and knowledge. Our platform offers a safe place for each community to give and receive advice through one-on-one messaging and group discussions, all while offering members access to the latest news and research updates. Currently, we have seven communities: “It is a great community of people from all over the world. Everyone is trying to help each other figure out different ways to get relief and work towards remission. Thank you for providing us with a way to connect and exchange ideas and advice!” — IBD Healthline member “My MS friends are in this app. Only have a few friends plus family know and don’t want to burden them. Only so much they can understand too.” — MS Buddy member “Getting a cancer diagnosis felt like I had been thrown into a ‘club’ that I never wanted to be a part of … this app has helped me find a tribe of women I never knew I needed!” — Breast Cancer Healthline member

POLICIES

Healthline receives funding from advertisements, sponsored content, and other partnerships, such as affiliate programs. The reality is that funding from our advertisers allows us to cover more conditions and provide more powerful experiences, including video, animations, and input from a range of experts. Be assured that we’re absolutely inflexible about our editorial autonomy. Other than input about broad topic areas, we never allow sponsors to influence the content we create. We have specific ad and sponsorship guidelines we follow to ensure that advertising never gets in the way of editorial integrity. Healthline chooses the ads, does not endorse any products, distinguishes all ads from editorial content, and clearly distinguishes between sponsored and non-sponsored content.

Privacy Policy

Healthline is dedicated to protecting the privacy of readers and customers. Because customer privacy is our top priority, we proactively embed privacy into the development and curation of our services. At any time, all customers — regardless of geographical location — can make a data subject access request by using our rights request form. In doing so, customers can access, delete, restrict, or correct all personal information that they have shared with Healthline.
