Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy outlines how OutFox Health collects, uses, stores, and protects user data. Our commitment is to maintain the confidentiality and security of our users’ personal information while providing a personalized and effective healthcare navigation service.
OutFox Health is a platform available at https://outfoxhealth.com (the “Site”) and mobile applications available on the Google Play and Apple stores (the “Apps”). We have developed this Privacy Policy to inform our users (“user(s),” “you,” or “your”) about how we collect data through our Services, how we use the collected data, and a user’s rights with respect to the collected data.
Please read this Privacy Policy carefully. If you do not agree to be bound by this Privacy Policy, then do not access or use the Services. By accessing and/or using the Services, you accept and agree to be bound by this Privacy Policy and our Terms of Service, which are hereby incorporated by reference.
If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy, please contact us at info@outfoxhealth.com or at the contact information below.
1. Data We Collect
OutFox Health collects personal data such as demographics, interests, preferences, insurance policy details, and health-related information (e.g., lab tests, prescriptions) to provide a tailored healthcare navigation experience. This data helps in price comparison, insurance integration, and personalized suggestions.
When you use the Site, we collect and process the following types of information:
Information We Collect about You
- We collect information about your use of our Services, including but not limited to your Internet connections, computer equipment, web browsers, sites visited before using or accessing our Site, sites visited after leaving our Site, and other similar information about traffic and usage, as you navigate to, through, and away from our Site(s). This is called “Non-Personal Data” because it does not identify you, but provides insights to us regarding your use of the Services. Non-Personal Data may become linked to you and/or your account only after you submit certain types of Personal Data to us, e.g. logging into your Site account. This does not apply, however, after you have left our Site.
- We also use automated data collection tools, such as Cookies and Web Beacons, to collect certain types of Non-Personal Data. By using our Services, you acknowledge that we use these data collection tools and accept the terms of our Cookie Notification. You can set your browser to reject Cookies, but that may limit your use of some convenience features on the Services. For more information on Cookies and how to control Cookies on your web browser, please see our Cookie Policy.
- Web Beacons are tiny graphics with a unique identifier that may be included on our Services for several purposes, including to deliver or communicate with Cookies, to track and measure the performance of our Services, and to monitor how many visitors view our Services. Unlike Cookies, which are stored on the device, Web Beacons are typically embedded invisibly on web pages or in an e-mail.
- Log Data refers to certain information about how a user (including both account holders and non-Account holders) uses our Services. Log Data may include information such as a user’s Internet Protocol address, browser type, operating system, the pages or features of our Services to which a User browsed and the time spent on those pages or features, search terms, the links on our Services that a user clicked on, and other statistics.
- You may be given the option to receive push notifications while using our Services. In order to serve push notifications, we may need to collect your IP address and a persistent identifier from your device. You can turn off push notifications in your device settings.
Information You Provide
- When you register to use our Services, place an order, set up an account, respond to communications (e.g., surveys, requests for feedback), contact us via phone, e-mail, or postal mail, and so on, we will collect certain types of the information you provide to us. This may include your first and last name(s), mailing address, e-mail address, phone number, organization, payment information, geolocation information, and/or your IP address. By using the Services, you may also choose to disclose or provide your communication preferences, your physical location, and your demographic information. This type of data is called “Personal Data” because it can be used to identify you.
When you wish to make a payment to OutFox Health for our Services, you have the following payment options to choose from:
- You may provide your payment information (i.e., credit card number, CCV number, and billing zip code) through our Site, in which case our payment processing service provider will process the payment for us. We retain limited payment information, such as billing zip code, last four digits of the payment card, and the card’s expiration date. We then save an identifier token from our payment processor that we can use to bill the same card on subsequent purchases without requiring you to re-enter your information.
- Alternatively, you may choose to be connected to one of our third-party service providers for payment processing.
To learn more about these and our other third-party service providers, please see Section 4 below.
- Geolocation Data: You may choose to allow us to access your location by granting the Site access to your location when prompted or through your device’s location services settings. You may change these settings on your device.
- Third-Party Social Networking Service(s): If you choose to access, visit, and/or use any third-party social networking service(s) that may be integrated with our Service, we may receive your Personal Data and other information about you and your computer, mobile, or other device that you have made available to those social networking services.
