GOM PRIVACY POLICY

Effective as of July 1, 2018

GOM is committed to maintaining robust privacy protections for its users. This Privacy Policy (“Privacy Policy”) is designed to help you understand how we collect, use and safeguard the information you provide to us and to assist you in making informed decisions when using our Service.

This Privacy Policy is incorporated into and subject to our Terms of Use (found at www.gomhealth.com) Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms shall have the same meanings as those defined in the Terms of Use. By accessing the Platform or utilizing the Service, you accept our Privacy Policy and Terms of Use, and you consent to our collection, storage, use and disclosure of your Personal Information as described in this Privacy Policy.

1.INFORMATION WE COLLECT

We collect “Non-Personal Information” and “Personal Information.” Non-Personal Information includes information that cannot be used to personally identify you, such as anonymous usage data, general demographic information we may collect, referring/exit pages and URLs, platform types, preferences you submit and preferences that are generated based on the data you submit and number of clicks. Personal Information includes your email, name, date of birth, age, gender, ethnicity, height, weight, waist circumference, marital status, education, occupation, employment status, partner name, contact information (telephone number, address), which you submit to us through the registration process.

1.1 Information collected via Technology

We track information provided to us by your browser or by our software application when you view or use the Service, such as the website you came from (known as the “referring URL”), the type of browser you use, the device from which you connected to the Platform and/or Service, the time and date of access, and other information that does not personally identify you. We track this information using cookies, or small text files which include an anonymous unique identifier. Cookies are sent to a user’s browser from our servers and are stored on the user’s computer hard drive. Sending a cookie to a user’s browser enables us to collect Non-Personal information about that user and keep a record of the user’s preferences when utilizing our services, both on an individual and aggregate basis. For example, the Company may use cookies to collect the following information: browser type and operating system, the number of visitors to our Website and the way in which visitors interact with the Website. Personal information cannot be collected by cookies and other tracking technology; however, cookies may be tied to Personal Information which was previously provided by a User. The Company may use both persistent and session cookies; persistent cookies remain on your computer after you close your session and until you delete them, while session cookies expire when you close your browser.

1.2  Information you provide us by registering for an account

In addition to the information provided automatically by your browser when you visit the Platform, to become a subscriber to the Service you will need to create a personal profile. You can create a profile by registering with the Service, entering your demographic data (name, gender, age and email address), and creating a user name and a password. You will also need to provide answers to certain questions regarding your medical/behavioral history. We will use this data to generate a “Personalized Disease Risk Report,” which will serve as the basis for a customized weight management plan. To use the Service thereafter, you will need to submit additional Personal Information which may include any or all of the following: credit card information; shipping address; personal and lifestyle history; weight history; surgical history; allergy history; family health history; social history; eating history; activity history; sleep history; contents of food and/or activity journal. By registering, you are authorizing us to collect, store and use your Personal Information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

 

1.3  Information provided by third-party applications and devices

The Site offers you the option to link your account with third party applications or devices (each one referred to as a “Tracker”) such as activity trackers that measure your activity level (e.g. the number of steps and distance walked, calories burned and other personal metrics). If you link your GOM account with an account you have with a third-party Tracker provider, the third-party provider will receive the information from us that you have a GOM account. At the same time, data collected by your third-party Tracker (for example, personal activity data collected via an activity tracker device or other collected data) will be transferred to us and may be incorporated into your GOM account (for example, activity logs) in accordance with the terms of this Privacy Policy. You have the option to disconnect the Trackers from your GOM account at any time via the Platform. Please refer to the privacy policy of your Tracker provider for further details about what specific data is collected by your third-party Tracker and account.

The app does use third party services that may collect information used to identify you.
