美国联邦贸易委员会(FTC)联合加州和犹他州,已对远程医疗公司 Hims & Hers 提起诉讼。监管方称,这家公司一边向用户强调“私密、安全”的就医体验,一边把敏感健康信息传给 Meta、Snap 及其他广告平台。

诉状已提交至美国加州北区联邦地区法院。FTC 指出,Hims 在网站和广告中多次表示,其服务“100% 在线、私密且安全”,并称病历和敏感健康信息只会由负责诊疗的医疗人员查看。但监管方称,实际情况并非如此。

涉及 Meta Pixel 等追踪工具

根据诉状,Hims 使用了 Meta Pixel、Meta Conversions API,以及来自 Google、微软、Reddit、TikTok、Pinterest、X 等公司的追踪技术,向第三方广告合作方传输用户在平台上的活动信息。

FTC 认为,这些做法涉及的并非普通浏览数据,而是与就医和购药相关的敏感信息。受影响的服务包括勃起功能障碍、早泄、心理健康、脱发和减重等治疗项目。监管方还称,Hims 在电视、广播、播客和网红推广中持续强调“私密”和“低调”,但未清楚告知用户相关数据会被共享。

监管方同时指控误导性订阅

除隐私问题外,FTC 还指控 Hims 存在欺骗性订阅设计。诉状称,公司以“免费咨询”为卖点,告诉消费者可先判断治疗是否适合自己,再决定是否购买药物。

但监管方称,许多用户在填写信息并由医疗人员审核后,就被直接扣费并自动加入处方药循环订阅,期间没有充分机会查看或确认治疗方案。FTC 还称,公司没有清楚披露补药时间,取消订阅流程也被隐藏在多层菜单和挽留页面之后。

案件将由法院审理

FTC 消费者保护局局长 Christopher Mufarrige 表示,诉状描述的情况包括消费者在不知情下被绑定循环订阅,以及最私密的健康信息在未经同意的情况下被披露给第三方。FTC 称,只要有理由相信企业正在或即将违法,且案件符合公共利益,就会提起诉讼。

Hims & Hers 尚未立即回应媒体置评请求。该公司为美股上市公司,主营在线问诊和处方药服务,其中“性健康”产品线知名度较高。

补充信息:FTC 近年持续加强对科技公司数据使用方式的执法。该机构此前曾推动 Epic Games 支付 5.2 亿美元和解金处理儿童隐私相关指控,也多次警告 AI 技术可能放大欺诈和误导性商业行为。
