If they were interested in my location they could request location data. What are the odds they are doing this to directly market products to people based on health data?
Inb4 “They already do that based on what you regularly purchase”
Of course, yes they do. This appears to be one more layer on top of it. And surely they wouldn’t share that information with the pharmacy, right?
I think the reason is likely their “Sincerly Health” program. Why anyone would trust their grocery store with any of their Health Data is beyond me though.
Apparently they consider me a security risk. Can’t fault them, to be honest.
I guess Jewel Osco is not into vegan cheesecake. A shame, because I think you’re delicious!
Thanks, darling. Though I gotta admit I had some pretty mediocre versions of, well, me, so I guess I’m hit or miss.
Everyone has the potential for improvement and you’re just getting better with time <3
Lots of grocery stores have pharmacies. I wonder if health data collected through the app would be protected by HIPPA…
At least the pharmacies in our grocery stores are separate companies and usually just outside the store.
The ones I’m thinking of are inside the store and owned by the same corporation.
Do you pay in a different place? If so I would guess it’s technically a different company.
The pharmacy can ring up anything from the grocery store. And you can pay for OTC drugs at the grocery checkout instead of the pharmacy checkout. It’s the same store…
Okay but do OTC drugs handle HIPPA data? I thought that was only prescription drugs.
If that is indeed the case then why are you bringing up OTC drugs?
I brought up OTC drugs to help make my point that the pharmacy and grocery store are the same.
I brought up prescription drugs to help make my point that they probably aren’t.
