Website sampling by blocks, criteria, and number of pages.

Sampling block	Pages	Criteria	Number of pages (N=50)
A	Seven DFWa institutions’ main cancer/oncology websites	We sampled all seven institutions’ main cancer/oncology pages in English. Only one institution had a parallelb Spanish website, which we also sampled (ie, we did not sample Google translate versions of English websites).	8
B	Seven DFW institutions’ main COVID websites	Same criteria as Block A (n=8). In addition, one academic medical center had two COVID websites to orient patients/families on health care services and inform the public about research and educational missions, so we sampled both in English.	9
C	Internal direct sublinks to English/Spanish parallel content	We sampled any internalc linked content in Spanish from the main cancer or COVID pages if (1) parallel English and Spanish contents were available for comparison; and (2) relevantd information was available.	10 (5 pairs)
D	External direct sublinks to English/Spanish parallel content	We sampled any externale linked parallel content in Spanish and English from the main cancer or COVID pages using the same criteria as in Block C.	12 (6 pairs)
E	External direct sublinks of English or Spanish nonparallel content	We sampled external nonparallel English (n=7) and Spanish (n=4) pages with relevant information linked from the main cancer or COVID pages.	11
