Application Data. Should you use our Application, we may collect the following information, provided you grant us access or permission:

2. HOW WE PROCESS YOUR INFORMATION

In Short: We process your information to provide, improve, and administer our Services, to communicate with you, for security and fraud prevention, and to comply with law.

We process your Personal Information for various legitimate business purposes, including:

To facilitate account creation, authentication, and management.
To deliver Services to the User. This includes processing your HealthKit Data to provide you with wellness insights and to facilitate your interaction with our AI-driven mental wellness support features.
To evaluate and improve our Services, products, and your experience. We may process your information when we believe it is necessary to identify usage trends, determine the effectiveness of our campaigns, and to evaluate and improve our Services, products, and your experience.

3. LEGAL BASES FOR PROCESSING YOUR INFORMATION

In Short: We only process your personal information when we believe it is necessary and we have a valid legal reason (i.e., legal basis) to do so under applicable law, like with your consent, to comply with laws, to provide you with services to enter into or fulfill our contractual obligations, to protect your rights, or to fulfill our legitimate business interests.

If you are located in Canada, this section applies to you.

We may process your information if you have given us specific permission (i.e., express consent) to use your personal information for a specific purpose, or in situations where your permission can be inferred (i.e., implied consent). You can withdraw your consent at any time.

In some exceptional cases, we may be legally permitted under applicable law to process your information without your consent, including, for example:

If collection is clearly in the interests of an individual and consent cannot be obtained in a timely way
For investigations and fraud detection and prevention
For business transactions provided certain conditions are met
If it is contained in a witness statement and the collection is necessary to assess, process, or settle an insurance claim
For identifying injured, ill, or deceased persons and communicating with next of kin
If we have reasonable grounds to believe an individual has been, is, or may be victim of financial abuse
If it is reasonable to expect collection and use with consent would compromise the availability or the accuracy of the information and the collection is reasonable for purposes related to investigating a breach of an agreement or a contravention of the laws of Canada or a province
If disclosure is required to comply with a subpoena, warrant, court order, or rules of the court relating to the production of records

4. WHEN AND WITH WHOM WE SHARE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

6. ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE-BASED PRODUCTS

Our Services utilize artificial intelligence ("AI") technologies, including large language models, to provide personalized mental wellness support. When you interact with our AI features:

Data Processing: Your inputs (text, voice) and relevant HealthKit Data are processed by our AI models to generate responses and insights.
No Human Review: While we monitor system performance, human personnel do not routinely review your specific conversations with the AI unless necessary for safety, legal compliance, or system improvement (with anonymization where possible).

Our Services offer you the ability to register and log in using your third-party social media account details (like your Facebook or Google logins). Where you choose to do this, we will receive certain profile information about you from your social media provider. The profile information we receive may vary depending on the social media provider concerned, but will often include your name, email address, friends list, and profile picture, as well as other information you choose to make public on such a social media platform.

8. DATA RETENTION

In Short: We keep your information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy unless otherwise required by law.

We will only keep your Personal Information for as long as it is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law (such as tax, accounting, or other legal requirements). No purpose in this policy will require us keeping your personal information for longer than the period of time in which users have an account with us.

9. INFORMATION SECURITY

In Short: We aim to protect your Personal Information through a system of organizational and technical security measures.

We have implemented appropriate and reasonable technical and organizational security measures designed to protect the security of any Personal Information we process. However, despite our safeguards and efforts to secure your information, no electronic transmission over the Internet or information storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, so we cannot promise or guarantee that hackers, cybercriminals, or other unauthorized third parties will not be able to defeat our security and improperly collect, access, steal, or modify your information.

10. COLLECTION OF INFORMATION FROM MINORS

In Short: We do not knowingly collect data from or market to children under 18 years of age.

We do not knowingly solicit data from or market to children under 18 years of age. By using the Services, you represent that you are at least 18 or that you are the parent or guardian of such a minor and consent to such minor dependent's use of the Services. If we learn that Personal Information from users less than 18 years of age has been collected, we will deactivate the account and take reasonable measures to promptly delete such data from our records.

12. CONTROLS FOR DO-NOT-TRACK FEATURES

Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems and mobile applications include a Do-Not-Track ("DNT") feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected. At this stage no uniform technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been finalized. As such, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online.

In Short: If you are a resident of California, Colorado, Connecticut, Utah or Virginia, you are granted specific rights regarding access to your Personal Information.
