Privacy Policy

IVIM HEALTH PRIVACY POLICY 

Effective Date: July 2, 2024 

This Ivím Health Privacy Policy (“this Policy”) describes how we collect, use, and disclose your Personal Information. Under this Policy, “we”, “us”, “our”, and “Ivím Health” mean, collectively, Ivím Services LLC and its affiliates, Ivím Health LLC, and Ivím Professional Corporation. “Personal Information” means information that is linked or reasonably linkable to you.  

This Policy applies to all Personal Information processed by us in connection with or as part of your use or interaction with our websites, apps, and us, if we do not have an established patient relationship with you. To establish a patient relationship with us, you must successfully register as and remain a Member. 

If we have an established patient relationship with you, those portions of our websites, apps, and interactions with us that require a username and password or other authentication process to access are not covered by this Policy, but instead are covered by a separate Ivím Provider Group HIPAA Notice of Privacy Practices (“the HIPAA Notice”). The HIPAA Notice, and not this Policy, also covers the collection and use of your Protected Health Information (“PHI”) as defined under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (“HIPAA”). If you successfully register as a Member, you will be asked to acknowledge the HIPAA Notice at the appropriate time prior to providing any PHI.  

We reserve the right to revise this Policy at any time. We will make the revised version of this Policy available on our website. The date this Policy was last revised is identified under the title above. By continuing to use and interact with our websites, apps, and us after revisions to this Policy are made available on our website, you accept the revised Policy unless we are required by law to obtain your acceptance some other way. 

If you disagree with any part of this Policy, or any future revisions to it, please discontinue your use and interaction with our websites, apps, and us. 

If you have questions about this Policy or our privacy practices, please contact privacy@ivimhealth.com.

    1. Confirm Processing. You may confirm whether we are processing your Personal Information, unless providing that confirmation would require us to reveal a trade secret; 
    2. Delete. You may ask to delete Personal Information provided by, or obtained about, you, unless we are required by law to keep it; 
    3. Obtain a Copy. You may obtain a copy of your Personal Information processed by us, in a portable and, to the extent technically feasible, readily usable format that allows you to transmit the data to another party without hindrance, where the processing is carried out by automated means, provided we are not required to reveal any trade secret; and 
    4. Opt-Out of Certain Uses. To opt-out of the processing of all of your Personal Information for purposes of targeted advertising, the sale of your Personal Information, or profiling in furtherance of solely automated decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects concerning you. 
    5. How to Exercise These Rights. To exercise these rights, please contact support@ivimhealth.com. For us to comply with these requests, we will need to verify your identity to the degree of certainty required by law. We will verify your request by asking you to send it from the email address associated with your account or requiring you to provide information necessary to verify your account. 
  5. Data Retention. We retain Personal Information for as long as necessary to provide the goods and services and fulfill the transactions you have requested; comply with our legal obligations; resolve disputes; enforce our agreements; and for other legitimate and lawful business purposes. Because these needs can vary for different data types in the context of different goods or services, actual retention periods can vary significantly based on criteria such as user expectations or consent; the sensitivity of the information; the availability of automated controls that enable users to delete data; and our legal or contractual obligations. 
  6. Notice to California Residents. If you are a California resident and the processing of personal information about you is subject to the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”), you have certain rights with respect to that information. 
    1. Notice at Collection. At or before the time of collection, you have a right to receive notice of our privacy practices, including the categories of Personal Information and Sensitive Information to be collected; the purposes for which the information is collected or used; whether the information is sold or shared; and how long the information is retained. You can find those details in this Policy by reviewing Sections 1, 2, 3, and 5 above. 
    2. Right to Know. You have a right to request that we disclose to you the Personal Information we have collected about you. You also have a right to request additional information about our collection, use, disclosure, or sale of the Personal Information. You can find those details in this Policy by reviewing Sections 1, 2, 3, and 5 above. If you have further questions, please contact privacy@ivimhealth.com. 
    3. Rights to Request Correction or Deletion. You also have rights to request that we correct inaccurate Personal Information and that we delete Personal Information under certain circumstances, subject to a number of exceptions. To make a request to correct or delete, please contact support@ivimhealth.com. 
    4. Right to Opt-Out / “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information”. You have a right to opt-out from future “sales” or “sharing” of Personal Information as those terms are defined by the CCPA. 
      1. The CCPA defines “sell,” “share,” and “Personal Information” very broadly, and some of our data sharing described in this Policy may be considered a “sale” or “sharing” under those definitions. For example, we let advertising and analytics providers collect identifiers (IP addresses, cookie IDs, and mobile IDs); activity data (browsing, clicks, app usage, non-product identifying transaction data); device data; and geolocation data through our websites and apps when you use our services, but do not “sell” or “share” any other types of Personal Information. If you do not wish for us or our partners to “sell” or “share” Personal Information relating to your visits to our sites for advertising purposes, you can make your request by contacting support@ivimhealth.com. If you opt-out using these choices, we will not share or make available such Personal Information in ways that are considered a “sale” or “sharing” under the CCPA. However, we will continue to make available to our third-party service providers and advertising and marketing partners some Personal Information to help us perform advertising and marketing-related functions. And, using these choices will not opt you out of the use of previously “sold” or “shared” Personal Information or stop all interest-based advertising. 
    5. Right to Limit Use and Disclosure of Sensitive Information. You have a right to limit our use of Sensitive Information for any purposes other than to provide the goods or services you request or as otherwise permitted by law. To opt-out from these additional purposes, please contact support@ivimhealth.com. 
    6. Right to Designate an Authorized Agent. You may designate, in writing or through a power of attorney, an authorized agent to make requests on your behalf to exercise your rights under the CCPA. Before accepting a request from an agent, we will require the agent to provide proof you have authorized it to act on your behalf, and we may need you to verify your identity directly with us. To designate an authorized agent, please contact support@ivimhealth.com. 
    7. Right of Non-Discrimination. You have a right not to be discriminated against for exercising these rights set out in the CCPA. If you feel you have, please contact privacy@ivimhealth.com. 
    8. We May Need to Verify Your Identity for You to Exercise These Rights. For us to comply with these requests, we will need to verify your identity to the degree of certainty required by law. We will verify your request by asking you to send it from the email address associated with your account or requiring you to provide information necessary to verify your account. 
    9. Shine the Light Law. Under California Civil Code section 1798.83, also known as the “Shine the Light” law, California residents who have provided Personal Information to a business with which the individual has established a business relationship for personal, family, or household purposes may request information about whether the business has disclosed Personal Information to any third parties for the third parties’ direct marketing purposes. 
      1. We do not disclose Personal Information to any third parties for their direct marketing purposes as defined by this law. You may request further information about our compliance with this law by emailing privacy@ivimhealth.com. Please note that we are required to respond to one request per year and may not be required to respond to requests made by means other than through your designated email address.
