The challenge
A leading healthcare network faced a major challenge: maintaining HIPAA compliance without sacrificing the data needed to optimize digital campaigns. HIPAA created a data blind spot for the organization, leaving them unable to track conversions or measure campaign performance without risking sensitive data exposure.
The approach
The solution was Freshpaint, a Healthcare Privacy Platform built for privacy-first performance marketing, which enables HIPAA-compliant tracking by preventing sensitive patient data from ever reaching non-compliant tools. By October 2024, Freshpaint had been integrated with many of the organization's campaigns, and real-time, HIPAA-compliant conversion data once again powered Smart Bidding, audience modeling, and retargeting.
The results
The organization achieved a 13% click-through rate on its Paid Search campaign. Cost-per-click decreased by 41% while conversions rose by 38%, all during a shorter campaign window and with less ad spend. Display campaigns maintained above-average click-through rates and delivered nearly 2,000 conversions in six months. Social campaigns now operate with clean, attributable data.
