Overview

Meddy Health Co. (“Meddy”) is a patient-focused health record platform. Meddy builds software and tools for patients to manage and store their lifelong medical data in one place. Whether you engage with meddyhealth.co or other websites that link to the Privacy Policy (“Our Website(s)”) through your mobile device, desktop computer, or your web browser, we may collect your personal information for a number of purposes as described in this Privacy Policy.

This Privacy Policy is designed to inform you about how Meddy collects and uses information you directly provide when you visit Our Websites and how Meddy processes your personal information when you apply for a position through Meddyhealth.co (our “Careers Site”). Meddy may update this Privacy Policy, or other privacy notices established for other Meddy websites, at any time we deem appropriate. Updated versions of this Privacy Policy will be indicated by the “Last Updated” date and updated versions will be in effect as soon as they are posted on this page. If you are interested, you should check back from time to time and make sure that you have reviewed the most current version of this Privacy Policy.

Information That You Give Us

You may contact us through the methods listed on Our Website, and we may keep a record of the communication to help answer or resolve the matter you contacted us about. You can decide how much information you want to share with us in those cases.

Our Website and Servers, Your Use of Browsers

When you communicate with us or access Our Websites and servers through a browser, application, or other client, our servers may automatically collect and record information. In most cases, this information is generated by various tracking technologies, such as “cookies,” “flash LSOs,” web beacons” or “clear GIFs.” You can read more about how we use cookies below.

Your browser or device may tell us:

Your browser type;
Language preference;
The Internet Protocol (IP) address (which may tell us generally where you are located); and
The type of device or system you used.

Your browser may also tell us information such as:

The time and date of your request;
The page that led you to Our Website; and
The search terms you typed into a search engine that led you to Our Website, if applicable.

Cookies

We use Google Analytics cookies in areas of the Careers Site to recognize you and collect information about your access to and use of that website. Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used by many website owners to make their websites work, operate more efficiently, and collect information. Our use of the Google Analytics cookie enables us to collect certain data about your visits to areas of the Careers Site, including:

Your IP address;
The pages of our site that you visit;
The time and date of your visit;
The time you spend on certain pages on our site; and
Various other statistics.

You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject certain cookies. You can exercise your cookie rights by adjusting cookie usage in your browser settings. Google’s ability to share and use your information collected via Google Analytics is restricted by the commitments made in the Google Analytics Terms of Service and the Google Privacy Policy.

Do-Not-Track

Some web browsers and operating systems include a Do-Not-Track (DNT) setting that you can activate to signal your preference not to have information about your online activities monitored. There is currently no uniform standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals. As a result, Our Websites and the Careers Site do not respond to DNT signals. If a standard for recognizing DNT signals is adopted in the future and we follow that standard, we will inform you about our approach in an update to this Privacy Policy.

Meddy uses our Careers Site to help facilitate our recruitment process. When you contact Meddy through our Careers Site to inquire about career opportunities at Meddy, we may ask you to provide us with certain information so that we can evaluate you as a candidate and meet certain legal obligations. The personal information you provide directly to our Careers Site as part of the application process is in addition to the information you provide through Our Websites and may include:

Demographic information, including race, gender, veteran status, and disability status;
Contact information;
Details of your qualifications, skills, experience, and education;
Information about your employment history and salary;
Whether you have a disability for which we can make reasonable accommodations during the recruitment process; and

How Long Does Meddy Keep Your Information?

Meddy will retain your information for as long as it makes use of such information as a part of the recruitment process and for other permitted purposes. If your application for employment is successful, information gathered during the recruitment process will be added to your human resources file and may be retained throughout your employment with Meddy.

If you are a data subject as defined by the General Data Protection Regulation, (EU) 2016/679, you have a number of rights and can do any of the following by contacting Meddy at support@meddyhealth.co:

How We Protect Your Information

We use a combination of process, technology and physical security controls to help protect your information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure, but remember that no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of storage, is 100% secure.

When you submit your information through Our Websites or our Careers Site, that information is encrypted and transmitted to us in a secure way. You can verify this by looking for a closed lock icon at the top or bottom of your web browser, or looking for “https” at the beginning of the URL address of the web page. We have internal policies and processes directed toward limiting access to your information to those employees, contractors, and agents of Meddy who need to know such data to perform their jobs and develop or improve our websites, products, and services.

Links to Other Sites

Our Websites, including the Careers Site, contain links to other sites and may contain embedded media hosted by other sites, such as YouTube videos. Please be aware that Meddy is not responsible for the content or privacy practices of other sites. We encourage you to be aware when you leave our site or engage with media hosted by another site and to read the privacy statements of any other site that collects your information.

Complete a transaction for which we collected the personal information, provide something that you requested, take actions reasonably anticipated within the context of our ongoing relationship with you, or fulfill any legal obligations we may have.
Detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or prosecute those responsible for such activities.
Debug products to identify and repair errors that impair existing intended functionality.
Exercise free speech, ensure the right of another consumer to exercise their free speech rights, or exercise another right provided for by law.
Comply with the California Electronic Communications Privacy Act (Cal. Penal Code § 1546 seq.).
Engage in public or peer-reviewed scientific, historical, or statistical research in the public interest that adheres to all other applicable ethics and privacy laws, when the information’s deletion may likely render impossible or seriously impair the research’s achievement, if you previously provided informed consent.
Enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with consumer expectations based on your relationship with us.
Make other internal and lawful uses of that information that are compatible with the context in which you provided it.
