Effective Date: August 17, 2025
2 Minute Medicine (“we,” “our,” or “us”) is a medical news and education platform. To support our operations and provide free or subsidized access to content, we display advertising that may be tailored to users. This Advertising and Targeting Policy describes how advertising works on our site, including the use of identifiers such as the National Provider Identifier (NPI) and other information to help deliver relevant ads.
1. Advertising on This Site
We display sponsored content, banner ads, and targeted promotional messages from third parties, including pharmaceutical companies, medical device manufacturers, and healthcare service providers.
Ads may appear alongside or within our editorial content, but all advertising is clearly marked as such and is separate from our independent news and editorial coverage.

To verify your professional status.

To provide advertisers with aggregated and de-identified insights about our professional audience.
We do not sell or disclose your personal identifiers to third parties in a way that would directly identify you, unless you have given explicit consent or it is required by law.
3. Targeted Advertising and Analytics
We may use cookies, pixels, device IDs, NPIs, or other identifiers to:
Deliver ads relevant to your specialty or practice area.
Limit how often you see the same ad.
Measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns.
Our advertising partners may also use de-identified and aggregated data to improve their targeting.
4. Consent to Advertising Practices
By using this site, you acknowledge and consent that:
Advertising may be personalized to you based on the information you provide (including NPI or other identifiers) and your use of the site.
