mobile carrier, operating system, and system configuration information.

Location Data. We collect location data such as information about your

device’s location, which can be either precise or imprecise. How much

to collect geolocation data that tells us your current location (based on your IP

address). You can opt out of allowing us to collect this information either by

such as to prevent harm.

  1. WHAT LEGAL BASES DO WE RELY ON TO PROCESS

YOUR INFORMATION?

In Short: We only process your personal information when we believe it is necessary

and we have a valid legal reason (i.e., legal basis) to do so under applicable law, like

with your consent, to comply with laws, to provide you with services to enter into or

fulfill our contractual obligations, to protect your rights, or to fulfill our legitimate

business interests.

If you are located in the EU or UK, this section applies to you.

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and UK GDPR require us to explain

the valid legal bases we rely on in order to process your personal information. As

such, we may rely on the following legal bases to process your personal information:

Consent. We may process your information if you have given us permission

(i.e., consent) to use your personal information for a specific purpose. You can

withdraw your consent at any time.

Performance of a Contract. We may process your personal information when

we believe it is necessary to fulfill our contractual obligations to you, including

providing our Services or at your request prior to entering into a contract with

you.

Legal Obligations. We may process your information where we believe it is

necessary for compliance with our legal obligations, such as to cooperate with

a law enforcement body or regulatory agency, exercise or defend our legal

rights, or disclose your information as evidence in litigation in which we are

involved.

Vital Interests. We may process your information where we believe it is

necessary to protect your vital interests or the vital interests of a third party,

such as situations involving potential threats to the safety of any person.

If you are located in Canada, this section applies to you.

We may process your information if you have given us specific permission (i.e.,

express consent) to use your personal information for a specific purpose, or in

situations where your permission can be inferred (i.e., implied consent). You can

withdraw your consent at any time.

In some exceptional cases, we may be legally permitted under applicable law to

process your information without your consent, including, for example:

If collection is clearly in the interests of an individual and consent cannot be

obtained in a timely way

For investigations and fraud detection and prevention

For business transactions provided certain conditions are met

If it is contained in a witness statement and the collection is necessary to

assess, process, or settle an insurance claim

 

For identifying injured, ill, or deceased persons and communicating with next

of kin

If we have reasonable grounds to believe an individual has been, is, or may be

victim of financial abuse

If it is reasonable to expect collection and use with consent would compromise

the availability or the accuracy of the information and the collection is

reasonable for purposes related to investigating a breach of an agreement or a

contravention of the laws of Canada or a province

If disclosure is required to comply with a subpoena, warrant, court order, or

rules of the court relating to the production of records

If it was produced by an individual in the course of their employment, business,

or profession and the collection is consistent with the purposes for which the

information was produced

If the collection is solely for journalistic, artistic, or literary purposes

If the information is publicly available and is specified by the regulations

  1. WHAT IS OUR STANCE ON THIRD-PARTY WEBSITES?

In Short: We are not responsible for the safety of any information that you share with

third parties that we may link to or who advertise on our Services, but are not

affiliated with, our Services.

The Services may link to third-party websites, online services, or mobile applications

and/or contain advertisements from third parties that are not affiliated with us and

which may link to other websites, services, or applications. Accordingly, we do not

make any guarantee regarding any such third parties, and we will not be liable for

any loss or damage caused by the use of such third-party websites, services, or

applications. The inclusion of a link towards a third-party website, service, or

application does not imply an endorsement by us. We cannot guarantee the safety

and privacy of data you provide to any third parties. Any data collected by third

parties is not covered by this privacy notice. We are not responsible for the content or

privacy and security practices and policies of any third parties, including other

websites, services, or applications that may be linked to or from the Services. You

should review the policies of such third parties and contact them directly to respond

to your questions.

  1. DO WE USE COOKIES AND OTHER TRACKING

TECHNOLOGIES?

In Short: We may use cookies and other tracking technologies to collect and store

your information.

We may use cookies and similar tracking technologies (like web beacons and pixels)

to access or store information. Specific information about how we use such

technologies and how you can refuse certain cookies is set out in our Cookie Notice.

  1. IS YOUR INFORMATION TRANSFERRED

INTERNATIONALLY?

In Short: We may transfer, store, and process your information in countries other

than your own.

Our servers are located in the United States. If you are accessing our Services from

outside the United States, please be aware that your information may be transferred

to, stored, and processed by us in our facilities and by those third parties with whom

we may share your personal information (see “WHEN AND WITH WHOM DO WE

SHARE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION?” above), in the United States, and

other countries.

If you are a resident in the European Economic Area (EEA) or United Kingdom (UK),

then these countries may not necessarily have data protection laws or other similar

laws as comprehensive as those in your country. However, we will take all necessary

measures to protect your personal information in accordance with this privacy notice

and applicable law.

European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses:

We have implemented measures to protect your personal information, including by

using the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses for transfers of

 

personal information between our group companies and between us and our third-

party providers. These clauses require all recipients to protect all personal

 

information that they process originating from the EEA or UK in accordance with

European data protection laws and regulations. Our Standard Contractual Clauses

can be provided upon request. We have implemented similar appropriate safeguards

with our third-party service providers and partners and further details can be provided

upon request.

  1. HOW LONG DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION?

 

In Short: We keep your information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes

outlined in this privacy notice unless otherwise required by law.

We will only keep your personal information for as long as it is necessary for the

purposes set out in this privacy notice, unless a longer retention period is required or

permitted by law (such as tax, accounting, or other legal requirements).

When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal

information, we will either delete or anonymize such information, or, if this is not

possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup

archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from

any further processing until deletion is possible.

  1. HOW DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION SAFE?

In Short: We aim to protect your personal information through a system of

organizational and technical security measures.

We have implemented appropriate and reasonable technical and organizational

security measures designed to protect the security of any personal information we

process. However, despite our safeguards and efforts to secure your information, no

electronic transmission over the Internet or information storage technology can be

guaranteed to be 100% secure, so we cannot promise or guarantee that hackers,

cybercriminals, or other unauthorized third parties will not be able to defeat our

security and improperly collect, access, steal, or modify your information. Although

we will do our best to protect your personal information, transmission of personal

information to and from our Services is at your own risk. You should only access the

Services within a secure environment.

  1. DO WE COLLECT INFORMATION FROM MINORS?

In Short: We do not knowingly collect data from or market to children under 18 years

of age.

We do not knowingly solicit data from or market to children under 18 years of age. By

using the Services, you represent that you are at least 18 or that you are the parent

or guardian of such a minor and consent to such minor dependent’s use of the

Services. If we learn that personal information from users less than 18 years of age

has been collected, we will deactivate the account and take reasonable measures to

promptly delete such data from our records. If you become aware of any data we

may have collected from children under age 18, please contact us at

wellness.vitalmind.ca/contact.

In Short: In some regions, such as the European Economic Area (EEA), United

Kingdom (UK), and Canada, you have rights that allow you greater access to and

control over your personal information. You may review, change, or terminate your

account at any time.

In some regions (like the EEA, UK, and Canada), you have certain rights under

applicable data protection laws. These may include the right (i) to request access and

obtain a copy of your personal information, (ii) to request rectification or erasure; (iii)

to restrict the processing of your personal information; and (iv) if applicable, to data

portability. In certain circumstances, you may also have the right to object to the

processing of your personal information. You can make such a request by contacting

us by using the contact details provided in the section “HOW CAN YOU CONTACT

US ABOUT THIS NOTICE?” below.

We will consider and act upon any request in accordance with applicable data

protection laws.

If you are located in the EEA or UK and you believe we are unlawfully processing

your personal information, you also have the right to complain to your local data

 

protection supervisory authority. You can find their contact details here:

https://ec.europa.eu/justice/data-protection/bodies/authorities/index_en.htm.

If you are located in Switzerland, the contact details for the data protection authorities

are available here: https://www.edoeb.admin.ch/edoeb/en/home.html.

Withdrawing your consent: If we are relying on your consent to process your

personal information, which may be express and/or implied consent depending on

the applicable law, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. You can

withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us by using the contact details

provided in the section “HOW CAN YOU CONTACT US ABOUT THIS NOTICE?”

below.

However, please note that this will not affect the lawfulness of the processing before

its withdrawal nor, when applicable law allows, will it affect the processing of your

personal information conducted in reliance on lawful processing grounds other than

consent.

Opting out of marketing and promotional communications: You can unsubscribe

from our marketing and promotional communications at any time by clicking on the

unsubscribe link in the emails that we send, or by contacting us using the details

provided in the section “HOW CAN YOU CONTACT US ABOUT THIS NOTICE?”

below. You will then be removed from the marketing lists. However, we may still

communicate with you — for example, to send you service-related messages that are

necessary for the administration and use of your account, to respond to service

requests, or for other non-marketing purposes.

Cookies and similar technologies: Most Web browsers are set to accept cookies

by default. If you prefer, you can usually choose to set your browser to remove

cookies and to reject cookies. If you choose to remove cookies or reject cookies, this

could affect certain features or services of our Services. To opt out of interest-based

advertising by advertisers on our Services visit http://www.aboutads.info/choices/.

If you have questions or comments about your privacy rights, you may email us at

wellness.vitalmind.ca/contact.

  1. CONTROLS FOR DO-NOT-TRACK FEATURES

Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems and mobile applications

include a Do-Not-Track (“DNT”) feature or setting you can activate to signal your

privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored

and collected. At this stage no uniform technology standard for recognizing and

implementing DNT signals has been finalized. As such, we do not currently respond

to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates

your choice not to be tracked online. If a standard for online tracking is adopted that

we must follow in the future, we will inform you about that practice in a revised

version of this privacy notice.

PRIVACY RIGHTS?

In Short: Yes, if you are a resident of California, you are granted specific rights

permits our users who are California residents to request and obtain from us, once a

make sure the data is not publicly displayed on the Services, but please be aware

that the data may not be completely or comprehensively removed from all our

systems (e.g., backups, etc.).

Right to Limit Use and Disclosure of Sensitive Personal Information

Verification process

Upon receiving your request, we will need to verify your identity to determine you are

the same person about whom we have the information in our system. These

verification efforts require us to ask you to provide information so that we can match it

with information you have previously provided us. For instance, depending on the

type of request you submit, we may ask you to provide certain information so that we

can match the information you provide with the information we already have on file,

or we may contact you through a communication method (e.g., phone or email) that

you have previously provided to us. We may also use other verification methods as

the circumstances dictate.

We will only use personal information provided in your request to verify your identity

or authority to make the request. To the extent possible, we will avoid requesting

additional information from you for the purposes of verification. However, if we cannot

verify your identity from the information already maintained by us, we may request

that you provide additional information for the purposes of verifying your identity and

for security or fraud-prevention purposes. We will delete such additionally provided

information as soon as we finish verifying you.

Other privacy rights

You may request correction of your personal data if it is incorrect or no longer

relevant, or ask to restrict the processing of the information.
