Scope of this policy
This Privacy Policy covers ApplyFreeScooter.com and the independent editorial services offered through it by CivicAccess Mobility Media LLC. We provide information about U.S. mobility equipment and transportation assistance, not clinical treatment, federal enrollment, insurance billing or patient portal services.
External websites linked from our articles may use different privacy practices. When you leave this domain for Medicare, Medicaid, the VA, a municipal e-bike rebate portal, a charity or a supplier, review the privacy notice of that organization before sharing personal information.
Local eligibility and calculator processing
The mobility eligibility matcher, Medicare 80/20 cost estimator, federal poverty guideline comparison, printable MRADL checklist and interactive comparison tables run client-side in the visitor's browser. The tools do not require account creation and do not transmit entered responses to our server for a benefits determination.
We do not request or intentionally store protected health information (PHI), an 11-character Medicare Beneficiary Identifier, a Social Security number, EBT PIN, credit-card number or private medical documentation through these tools. Do not enter those details into general message fields.
Contact information and messages
If you voluntarily submit the contact form, we process the name, email address, optional ZIP code, selected subject and non-sensitive message needed to respond. The website's contact endpoint uses input validation and may reject messages that resemble sensitive identifiers. A properly configured email delivery provider may process accepted communications.
Retention depends on the actual provider and operational settings. We do not promise an arbitrary deletion deadline or claim that an unconfigured local contact form successfully delivered an inquiry. Use compliance@applyfreescooter.com to request information about a message you sent or to raise a privacy question.
Server logs and website security
Hosting and network providers may record ordinary operational information, including IP addresses, browser type, request times, pages requested, error details and security signals. This information can help deliver pages, troubleshoot faults, prevent malicious traffic and maintain site security.
The current static website does not need a user account to read articles, and fonts and editorial images are stored locally. We do not publish raw access logs or use our public calculator answers as medical records.
Cookies, Google AdSense and DoubleClick
Basic access to this research website does not require a marketing cookie. Hosting or security infrastructure may use cookies or similar technologies for essential operations. If Google AdSense or another advertising system is enabled, advertising vendors may use cookies and device identifiers to provide, measure or personalize ads subject to applicable consent requirements.
Google’s advertising technologies have historically included the DoubleClick DART cookie. Readers can review Google Ads Settings at https://adssettings.google.com/ and industry opt-out information at https://www.aboutads.info/. The presence of this disclosure does not mean that AdSense tracking is currently active on every page.
California and other U.S. state privacy rights
Depending on where a visitor lives and the applicability of the relevant law, state rules such as the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) may provide rights to access, correct or delete certain personal information and to understand or limit some uses of data. Other states have separate consumer health privacy and general data privacy laws.
We do not sell user-submitted health records or maintain a consumer health profile from local eligibility checklists. To ask about records associated with an editorial message, contact compliance@applyfreescooter.com and provide enough non-sensitive information to identify your request. We will evaluate requests under the law that actually applies.
GDPR, international visitors and minors
Although the content is primarily for U.S. residents, visitors from other jurisdictions may have rights under applicable privacy rules, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) where it applies. Such rights may include access, rectification, erasure, objection and a complaint to a supervisory authority, subject to applicable conditions.
The site is intended for adults researching equipment assistance. It does not knowingly solicit personal information from children under 13, consistent with COPPA principles. Parents or guardians who believe a child submitted personal information can contact our compliance desk.
Information protection and policy updates
We use a minimal-data design in public research tools, maintain no public upload form for government IDs, and rely on the actual hosting and delivery providers for relevant transport and infrastructure protections. No online system should be treated as an appropriate destination for unsolicited private medical records.
The original research archive date is June 15, 2018; this Privacy Policy edition was updated in October 2026. Material changes to forms, vendors, advertising or data practices should be reflected in a revised public notice.
Review your advertising controls
These resources explain general advertising choices. This disclosure does not assert that AdSense tracking is enabled on the current local site.
