Consumer Health Data Privacy Policy

This Consumer Health Data Privacy Policy supplements our Privacy Policy and is intended only for residents of Washington and Nevada. 

Collection and Use of Consumer Health Data 

We do not believe we collect “consumer health data,” and we do not use data we collect to identify or make inferences about your past, present, or future physical or mental health status. Because “consumer health data” is defined so broadly in some jurisdictions, however, the information we may collect from or about you from time to time may be considered “consumer health data” under laws in those jurisdictions. Like other data we collect, the main reason we use this information is to provide our service to you and help you connect with other members. 

How We Disclose Consumer Health Data

We may share consumer health data with the following categories of third parties when necessary for the purposes described above: 

  • Other users. You share information with other users when you voluntarily disclose information on the service for others to see (e.g., your public profile).

  • Service providers. We share information with vendors who help us operate our service. They provide us services such as data hosting and maintenance, customer care, and security operations.

  • Affiliates. We may share information with affiliates who assist us in data processing operations, as service providers. This assistance may include processing operations, such as data hosting and maintenance, customer care, data security and fighting against spam, abuse, fraud and other wrongdoings.

  • Parties to a corporate transaction. We may disclose your information if we are involved, whether in whole or in part, in a merger, sale, acquisition, divestiture, restructuring, reorganization, dissolution, bankruptcy or other change of ownership or control.

  • Law enforcement authorities / Legal Processes. We may disclose your data to: (i) comply with a legal process, such as a court order, subpoena or search warrant, government / law enforcement investigation or other legal requirements; (ii) assist in the prevention or detection of crime; (iii) protect the safety of any person; and (iv) establish, exercise or defend legal claims.
