McKesson Corporation
Health Care
40
out of 100. Number 300 of 512, counting from the worst.
Where McKesson Corporation does well
- Renewals 0 of 20. Nothing found.
- McKesson explicitly states it does not sell your personal information to third parties, and its standard notices restrict service providers to using your data only as necessary to provide their services — a cleaner data-sharing posture than most ad-funded consumer companies.
- The Terms of Use require an affirmative age check (16+) before site use, and let you end your agreement at any time by deactivating your account.
- The privacy notices also state that where tracking data counts as individually identifiable information, it is treated as Protected Health Information (PHI) under HIPAA's Privacy and Security Rule.
If you have a dispute with McKesson over using their website, you can't take them to court — you're forced into binding arbitration.
The fine print
8 clauses and findings from the draft archive, dated 1 October 2026. The plain English comes first; the small print is the company's own words. None of these has been checked yet.

How these were found
McKesson Website Terms of Use last updated May 12, 2023 (read in full via browser fetch). Privacy Notice effective April 9, 2025. The main Privacy Notice page at mckesson.com/utility/privacy-notice/ is JavaScript-rendered and returned no text to the automated fetch, so data-sharing clauses were drawn from verbatim indexed snippets of official mckesson.com pages (main Privacy Notice, GEM Talent Communities notice) and McKesson-affiliated notices (mckessonaccelerate.com, inspirogene.com), all sharing McKesson's standard privacy template. Limitation: McKesson is a B2B healthcare distributor; its public website terms apply to visitors rather than patients/consumers, so consumer-style traps (auto-renewal, price changes) simply don't appear — the score reflects what exists, kept modest accordingly.
