Overview
At LifeHealth, your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy outlines the key elements of our privacy and security practices as they relate to the use of our platform and services (collectively, the “Services”). It covers how we collect, use, store, and protect information that is submitted to us, whether by healthcare providers, patients, or any other users of the Services.
This Privacy Policy applies to all information collected through the LifeHealth platform, as well as any data provided to us in connection with the use of our Services. LifeHealth is committed to maintaining the confidentiality of health information in accordance with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) and other applicable privacy laws and regulations.
We may amend this policy from time to time in order to reflect changes in our practices, technology, or legal requirements. When updates are made, we will provide visible notice of the changes on our website or through other appropriate means.
What Information This Policy Covers
This Privacy Policy applies to any information we collect or receive that can be used—on its own or in combination with other data—to identify an individual. This includes:
This policy also applies to non-personal information that may not identify an individual by itself but could be used in conjunction with other information to do so.
The information covered includes both data submitted to us directly and data that is automatically collected through integrations with third-party systems, devices, or services.
Please note: This Privacy Policy applies exclusively to users of LifeHealth’s Services and does not extend to third-party sites, services, or unaffiliated users.
How We Collect Personal Information
We collect personal information in two primary ways: (1) when it is submitted directly, and (2) when it is automatically gathered through integrations or interactions with our systems.
1. Information You or Your Provider Submit
Personal information may be provided to LifeHealth through a variety of channels, including:
2. Information We Collect Automatically
LifeHealth also collects information automatically to help operate, support, and improve the Services. This may include:
We may also use cookies and similar technologies to enhance your experience, remember preferences, and gather usage statistics. These tools do not collect personal health information, but they may collect general data about how our site is used. We may use third-party analytics providers to help us understand traffic and user behavior on our site. These analytics tools do not collect data that directly identifies you.
How We Use Personal Information
LifeHealth is a cloud-based software-as-a-service (SaaS) platform designed to support a holistic healthcare ecosystem. Our Services are used by healthcare providers, organizations, and patients to manage and streamline various aspects of medical care, communication, and data sharing.
We use personal information to enable, enhance, and support the functionality of the LifeHealth platform. The ways in which we use this information include:
LifeHealth limits access to personal information to only those employees and authorized personnel who require it to perform their roles.
Cookies and Tracking Technologies
LifeHealth uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance the functionality and performance of our platform. Cookies are small text files stored on your device that help us remember your preferences, maintain secure sessions, and improve your experience.
We may use cookies to:
Rejecting or disabling cookies may result in a loss of functionality. In some cases, access to the Services may be denied if cookies are not enabled.
We do not use cookies to collect or sell personal information to third parties.
Consent
By using the LifeHealth platform and Services, you consent to the collection, use, and disclosure of your personal information as described in this Privacy Policy.
If we ever intend to use your personal information for a purpose that is not outlined in this policy, we will request your explicit consent before doing so. LifeHealth will never use, disclose, or share your personal information in any way that is not authorized by this Privacy Policy or applicable law.
Safeguarding Health Data and Legal Responsibilities
LifeHealth is committed to maintaining the confidentiality, integrity, and security of health-related information in accordance with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Act of 2009, and applicable state privacy laws.
When a healthcare provider (a covered entity) uses LifeHealth or engages with integrated services that require access to protected health information (PHI), and such access is delegated to a third party in order to carry out a function or activity on behalf of the provider, that third party is considered a business associate under HIPAA.
In such cases, LifeHealth requires a Business Associate Agreement (BAA) to be in place between the provider and the business associate to ensure proper handling, security, and confidentiality of health information. This requirement extends to any subcontractors or secondary service providers who may also need access to such data to perform their duties.
Disclosure of Information to Third Parties
LifeHealth does not sell personal information to third parties. However, there are limited circumstances where information may need to be shared:
In all such cases, LifeHealth ensures that only the necessary information is disclosed and that it remains protected under our privacy and security standards.
Security Measures
LifeHealth maintains a strict security framework designed to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of personal and health information. As an IBM Silver Partner, LifeHealth leverages industry-leading security infrastructure and best practices to reinforce the security of our platform.
Security measures include:
While no system can guarantee absolute protection, LifeHealth continuously evaluates and updates its security measures to meet or exceed industry standards.
Data Retention
LifeHealth retains personal information for as long as necessary to provide Services, manage accounts, support clinical care, fulfill legal and regulatory obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.
Once all applicable retention periods have expired, we will delete or destroy personal information in a manner designed to ensure that the data cannot be reconstructed or read. If complete deletion is not possible (e.g., due to technical constraints), we will continue to protect the information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
International Users
If you access or use the LifeHealth platform from outside your country of residence, please be aware that your personal information may be transferred across international borders and stored or processed in jurisdictions with different data protection laws.
By using the Services, you consent to the transfer, storage, and processing of your personal information in countries that may not have the same legal protections as your home jurisdiction. Regardless of where your data is processed, LifeHealth applies consistent privacy and security safeguards.
Opt-Out Policy
You have the right to control how your personal information is used. LifeHealth provides options to opt out of:
Please note that even if you opt out of marketing or cookies, you may still receive essential service communications related to your account or our platform.
