PsiAN Issues Comments to FTC

PsiAN issues comments to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) on BetterHelp, a website about, “removing the traditional barriers to therapy and making mental health care more accessible to everyone.”

PsiAN issued comments to the FTC on a proposed consent order that would ban BetterHelp from sharing customer data internally and with Facebook and others for advertising purposes, especially after BetterHelp had promised to keep such data private, and would require BetterHelp to reimburse customers $7.8 M. (full press release here.)

Here is the link to PsiAN's comments, as posted on the FTC website.
