PlainTrials publishes public ClinicalTrials.gov records and our own rewrites. We do not offer patient accounts, we do not collect medical histories, and we do not match you to a trial.
What we store
- A snapshot of public registry fields plus constrained plain-English enrichment, in catalog JSON.
- Ordinary web-server logs (IP, user agent, requested URL, time) for operations and abuse prevention.
- Search queries you type are processed to filter the snapshot.
- Google Analytics (gtag.js, measurement ID G-PDYP9VME87) loads on every page so we can see aggregate traffic. Google may set cookies and process IP/user-agent data under its own terms.
- A first-party traffic log powers the operator dashboard at /analytics. That log stores the visitor IP address, approximate city/region from a public GeoIP lookup, user-agent, referrer host, timestamp, and the page path viewed. It is used to show a map and a per-IP page trail. It is not a patient record and is not sold.
What we do not do
- We do not sell personal data.
- We do not use the catalog to target ads.
- We do not receive your medical records unless you email them to us unsolicited — please do not.
Third parties
Fonts may be requested from Google Fonts when you load a page. Google Analytics is loaded from googletagmanager.com. Approximate location for the operator map is resolved via GeoJS (get.geojs.io) from the visitor IP. Links to ClinicalTrials.gov and to our GitHub repository are ordinary outbound links.
