Hushone Health Study Apps Privacy Policy

What Is Personal Data at Hushone, Inc?

At Hushone, Inc, we staunchly believe in fundamental privacy rights, asserting that such rights should remain consistent regardless of geographical location. As such, we regard any data that identifies or can identify an individual directly or is linked or can be linked to them by Hushone as “personal data,” irrespective of the individual’s location. This encompasses data that directly identifies you, like your name, as well as data that might not directly identify you but can reasonably be used to do so, such as your device’s serial number. Aggregated data is treated as non-personal data within the scope of this Privacy Policy.

This Privacy Policy governs how Hushone, Inc or any Hushone-affiliated company (collectively, “Hushone”) manages personal data, whether you engage with us via our websites, Hushone apps (e.g., Hushone Wallet, Browser Extension, Concierge App, ), or in person (including via phone or when visiting our corporate offices). Hushone may also link to third-party services on our platforms or offer third-party apps for download through our App Store. Hushone’s Privacy Policy does not extend to third-party handling of personal data. We encourage you to review their privacy policies to understand your rights before engaging with them.

Your Privacy Rights at Hushone, Inc

Hushone, Inc respects your rights to know, access, correct, transfer, restrict the processing of, and delete your personal data. We extend these rights globally to our customers, and exercising these rights will not result in discriminatory treatment or a diminished level of service from Hushone. You also have the right to withdraw your consent at any time where consent is the basis of processing your personal data by Hushone.

To exercise your privacy rights and choices, including when a third-party service provider acts on behalf of Hushone, visit the Hushone Data and Privacy page at privacy@hushh.ai or for specific services. We ensure the security of your personal data by requiring sign-in to your account for identity verification. Should you need a copy of personal data not readily available, you can initiate a request at hushh.ai/legal/privacy/contact.

There may be instances where we're unable to fulfill your request, such as if deleting transaction data contradicts our legal obligations to retain transaction records. We may also deny requests that would compromise our data use for anti-fraud and security purposes, jeopardize others' privacy, appear frivolous or impractical.

For residents of California unable to access Hushone’s Data and Privacy page, requests can be made directly at hushh.ai/legal/privacy/contact or by contacting us at the provided support numbers.

Further details on exercising your rights are available at support.hushh.ai/kb/HT208501. Personal Data Hushone, Inc Collects from You
