This Privacy Policy governs the manner in which [Healpcorporate name] (“Healp” or “we” “us” “our”) collects, uses, maintains, and discloses information collected from users ("you" or "your") of its website located at [https://www.healp.co/] and its mobile application (the “App”) on which this Privacy Policy is posted (collectively, "Sites").

Capitalized terms used in this Privacy Policy and not defined herein shall have the definitions provided in our Terms of Use. This Privacy Policy describes the ways we collect, protect, use, and store your personal data. Please read this Privacy Policy carefully, and if you have any questions, you may contact us.

Healp collects information from you when you choose to share it with us to use our Sites, create an online account with us (through your Facebook, Google, or other email account) (“Account”), request information from us, sign up for our email list, post in our chat rooms or message boards, or otherwise contact us. The categories of information we collect are [your name, physical address, email address, telephone number, photo/image, gender, date of birth, hobbies and interests, and health information such as any disabilities].

If you use or access your Account through our Sites, we collect your user name and password. In addition, if you allow the App to use your location data such data is not stored and is only used to help you identify other Healp users nearby. You have the option of choosing whether or not to reveal personally identifiable information (e.g., contact information) to us. If you do not provide all information we request, however, some portions of our Sites will not work properly for you, or you will not be able to register or access certain sections of the Sites. In the event of a complaint regarding your content or conduct on the Sites, we may also receive personal data about you from other parties or from other users or third parties who may communicate information to us about you in relation to that complaint.

You may also choose to provide us with access to certain personal data stored by third parties including [social media websites (such as Facebook and Twitter)].The information we have access to varies by website and is controlled by your privacy settings on that site and your authorization. You may (and may be required to) share information about or give us access to additional third-party websites or services.

User Generated Content

Healp is designed to make it easier for you to connect with other users and to interact with them. Your Healp profile and other information you make available via the App may be viewed and shared by Healp users with individuals who may or may not be users or via third party applications in such users’ discretion. Users might share information like the photos and messages you send or upload and any metadata provided with those messages, along with any comments or information you provide in connection with your photos.

When using Healp, you should assume that anything you post or submit on the App (e.g., private chats with other users and message boards) may be publicly-viewable and accessible, both by users of the App and non-users of the App. Additionally, any information that you may disclose on our Sites such as in [blogs, on message boards, etc.] or on other public areas on the Sites, becomes public information. Please exercise caution when disclosing personal data to other users in the App or in these public areas. If you terminate your Account, we may continue to show some of your content from these public areas in anonymized form.

If you send or disclose any health information to us when you submit user generated content on our forum (“Health Content”), you acknowledge that such Health Content may not be encrypted and/or may not be a secure method of communication, and you assume the risk of such unsecured communications. If you do not consent to our processing and use of your content, including Health Content, you must not submit such content to our Sites.

If you submit any personal data relating to other people to us, you represent that you have the authority to do so and to permit us to use the information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

Information Automatically Collected

We may use cookies, web beacons, log files, or other technologies to collect certain information about visitors to and users of our Sites [and to deliver online advertisements that we think would be more relevant to your interests]. For example, we may automatically collect certain information from you, including but not limited to your browser type, operating system, Internet Protocol (“IP”) address, software version, and the domain name from which you accessed the Sites. In addition, we may collect information about your browsing behavior, such as the date and time you visit the Sites, the areas or pages of the Sites that you visit, the amount of time you spend viewing or using the Sites, the number of times you return to the Sites, other click-stream or Sites usage data, and emails or ads that you open, forward or click-through to our Sites.

Cookies and Other Tracking Methods

Cookies are small pieces of information that are stored on your hard drive when you visit our Sites. We use cookies or, in a limited number of cases, IP addresses or other tracking tools, for a number of reasons. For example, these tools may (a) allow you to store your password without having to constantly re-enter it; (b) help us to tailor our Sites or a marketing message to better match your needs and interests; and (c) allow us to better understand how you and others use our Sites. You can change your settings for cookies and similar technologies by clicking on the cookie consent box on our Site. In addition, you can refuse or accept cookies from our Sites at any time by activating the settings on your browser.

You can refer to the following links for more information: Google Analytics and privacy and Google Analytics opt-out browser.

At this time, we do not track your or any other user’s personal information over time and across third-party websites. We therefore do not respond to browser Do Not Track signals.

Upon downloading the App, you will be asked to turn on location services. If you turn these features on, when you use your mobile device we will collect information about WiFi access points as well as other location information about your longitude and latitude and may save your device's coordinates to offer certain features to you. This information helps us identify your physical location and we may use it to personalize the App and make it easier for you to interact with other users by enabling the information to be displayed and shared with other users choosing to view posts or users nearby. If you have enabled location services, but wish to turn it off, you can do so by switching them off in your device account settings. Even if you have disabled location services, we may still determine your city, state, and country location based on your IP address (but not your exact location).

Additionally, some of the information we collect may be shared with our partners, sponsors, and reputable advertisers to bring you offers of interest, and, if personal data is collected in connection with a joint promotion, it may be provided to that joint promoter for marketing and research purposes. If you prefer that we do not share your personally identifiable information with other reputable marketers, you may contact us by [Opt Out Mechanism].

Healp may share aggregate, de-identified/anonymized information with third parties for our business purposes.

Marketing Controls

If you opt out of receiving marketing communications from us, we may still send you important administrative messages, from which you cannot opt out.

Service Providers

Healp may contract with third parties to perform functions related to the Sites. These third party providers may have access to your information needed to perform their business functions, but may not use or share that information for other purposes.

Security

We use reasonable technical, administrative, and procedural measures in an attempt to safeguard your personal data from unauthorized access or use. No such measure is ever 100% effective though, so we do not guarantee that your personal data will be secure from theft, loss, or unauthorized access or use, and we make no representation as to the reasonableness, efficacy, or appropriateness of the measures we use to safeguard such data. You are responsible for maintaining the secrecy of you own password. If you have reason to believe that your interaction with us is no longer secure (for example, if you feel that the security of your Account has been compromised), please immediately notify us by contacting us at [CONTACT INFO]. Healp encourages you to learn as much as you can about your privacy on the Internet. In the event we become aware of a data breach where users’ personal data has been disclosed to unrelated third parties, we will notify any affected individuals as required by law.

Third Party Websites

Our Sites may have links to Third Party Sites, which have privacy policies that differ from our own. We are not responsible for the practices of such Third Party Sites. Please note that if you provide any information on your own to third parties, different rules may apply to their use or disclosure of your personal data. We encourage you to investigate and ask questions before disclosing information to third parties.

Your California Privacy Rights

A California resident who has provided personal data to a business with whom he/she has established a business relationship for personal, family or household purposes (“California User”) is entitled to request information about whether the business has disclosed personal information to any third parties for the third parties’ direct marketing purposes. In general, if the business has made such a disclosure of personal information, upon receipt of a request by a California User, the business is required to provide a list of all third parties to whom personal information was disclosed in the preceding calendar year, as well as a list of the categories of personal information that were disclosed.

Healp does not share, sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes unless you affirmatively agree to such disclosure.

Should your personal data be incorrect, you may request to have it updated or rectified. We may collect and use your information on the basis of your consent.
