Privacy Notice
Scope
MVH Insights is an internal corporate analytics tool used only by a small group of named Mars Veterinary Health executives. It is not a public service, does not serve consumers, and is not available for external signup. This notice describes the limited data the tool processes.
Information we collect
The tool stores only:
- Authorized user emails — a fixed allowlist of internal Mars staff. We use these to send magic-link sign-in messages and to gate access. We do not store passwords.
- Publicly available business reviews of Mars-owned veterinary brands (Banfield, VCA, BluePearl) from Google Reviews, Yelp, BBB, Trustpilot, PissedConsumer, and Reddit. These are reviews already published publicly by their authors on those platforms.
- Server logs for operational diagnostics (request paths, response codes, timing). These are retained briefly via Microsoft Azure Application Insights.
What we do not collect
- No consumer personal information
- No payment information
- No health records or medical data
- No tracking, advertising, or third-party analytics cookies
- No data sold or shared outside Mars Inc.
Cookies
The site sets a single session cookie (mars_session) after successful magic-link verification. It contains a short-lived signed authentication token and is used solely to keep the user signed in. It is HTTP-only, Secure, and SameSite Lax. No advertising or analytics cookies are set.
Hosting
All infrastructure is hosted on Microsoft Azure (App Service + Postgres Flexible Server + Key Vault) in a US Azure region.
