If you do not agree to be bound by this Notice, you should not access or use our services or disclose any personal information to us through our Services.
If we do not maintain information in a manner that identifies, relates to, describes, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could be reasonably linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular individual or household, such information is not considered Personal Data and this Notice will not apply to our processing of that information.

Lawful bases for processing
We may process your Personal Data on the basis of:
Your consent: Where you have given us permission to disclose and process your Personal Data for a specific purpose, including providing the Services.
The need to perform a contract with you: This includes using your Personal Data to fulfill our agreement with you, including processing necessary to provide you with Services or to manage our relationship with you.
Our legitimate interests or those of a third party, such as our interest in marketing our Services: We sometimes use your Personal Data because we believe it is in our interest or the interest of someone else. Legitimate interests work when we use your Personal Data in ways that make sense and do not unreasonably intrude on your privacy, or when we have a very good reason for it. Here is what it normally means for us:
Product Improvement: We may use data to enhance the Services features and functionality, making them more useful and user-friendly.
Customer Engagement: Keeping users, customers and others informed about updates, new features, and content that may interest them.
Research and Development: Using aggregated and anonymized data to conduct research on trends and user behavior to improve the Services.
Marketing and Promotion: Promoting the Services to a wider audience and providing tailored recommendations based on user data.
Security and Fraud Prevention: Protecting the Services and its users from security threats, fraud, and abuse.
Legal Compliance: Ensuring compliance with relevant laws and regulations, including the rules from other countries besides yours.
Business Operations: Managing day-to-day operations and ensuring the app’s sustainability and growth, including internal administration, accounting, finance, marketing, technology, cybersecurity, privacy, vendor and service provider management, and other operational activities.
Communicating with you: This includes responding to inquiries, providing updates, and sending service-related or marketing communications.
The need to comply with the law: This includes processing your Personal Data to follow the law, like keeping records of your cookie choices to comply with EU law such as the e-Privacy Directive and the GDPR.
Any other ground, as required or permitted by law: This includes using your Personal Data for any other reason that the law allows.
Where we process your Personal Data based on your consent (i.e., you have given us permission to your Personal Data), you may withdraw it at any time. However, this will not affect the lawfulness of our processing before you withdrew your consent. It will also not affect processing performed on other lawful grounds.
Where we receive your Personal Data as part of providing our Services to you based on a contract, we require such Personal Data to be able to carry out the contract. Without that necessary Personal Data, we will not be able to provide the Services to you.
When we rely on legitimate interests as a lawful basis of processing, you have the right to ask us more about how we decided to choose this legal basis.

Transfers of your Personal Data: Europe
Some of the third parties that we share your Personal Data with may be located outside of the European Economic Area (“EEA”), the UK or Switzerland. When your Personal Data is safeguarded by the EU GDPR or UK GDPR, or Swiss data protection law, before sending it to parties outside of the EEA, the UK, or Switzerland, we will do one of two things:
Seek your consent; or
Demand privacy and security: We will ensure the third party maintains the same level of privacy and security for your Personal Data as we do.
In some cases, the authorities of a country may have determined that the laws of other countries, territories or sectors within a country provide a level of protection equivalent to domestic law. You can see here the list of countries, territories and specified sectors that the European Commission recognized as providing an adequate level of protection for personal data; here the list of the UK; and here the list of Switzerland.
We are accountable for the protection of your Personal Data when we transfer it to others. We either send it to a country, territory or sector within a country that is recognized as providing the same level of personal data protection as the country of origin, or use safeguards like the Data Privacy Framework (as defined below), Binding Corporate Rules or the Standard Contractual Clauses (also known as the “SCCs”) approved by the European Commission under Article 46.2 of the GDPR, with necessary adjustments for transfers from the UK or Switzerland, or use specific transfer instruments like the UK International Data Transfer Agreement.
We remain liable for the protection of your Personal Data that we transfer to our service providers, except to the extent that we are not responsible for the event giving rise to any unauthorized or improper processing.
Other disclosures of your Personal Data
BioSensics will disclose your Personal Data, without notice, only if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to: (a) conform to the edicts of the law or comply with legal process served on BioSensics or the site; (b) protect and defend the rights or property of BioSensics; and, (c) act under exigent circumstances to protect the personal safety of users of BioSensics, or the public.
We may also disclose your Personal Data in connection with a sale, merger, consolidation, change in control, transfer of substantial assets, reorganization, restructure, or liquidation of BioSensics. If we are subject to a merger or acquisition with/by another company, we may share information with the other company in connection with the transaction, and your Personal Data may be transferred to such company upon completion of the transaction. Such acquiring company’s right to use your personal information shall be limited to the terms of this Notice unless additional notice is provided to you.
We reserve the right to use, transfer, sell, and share aggregated, anonymous data for any legal purpose. Such data does not include any Personal Data. The purposes may include analyzing usage trends or seeking compatible advertisers, sponsors, and customers.
If we have to disclose your Personal Data to governmental/law enforcement officials, we may not be able to ensure that those officials will maintain the privacy and security of your Personal Data.
Your Rights
Marketing Preferences. You can opt out from receiving future marketing communications from us at any time by using the unsubscribe function in the email you receive from us, or contacting us as set forth under “How to Contact Us” above. Please allow sufficient time for your preferences to be processed. Even if you opt out of receiving marketing messages, we may still contact you for transactional purposes like confirming or following up on an order or service request, asking you to review a product or service you have ordered, or notifying you of product recalls. If you later opt back into getting marketing communications from us, we will remove your information from our opt-out databases.
Depending upon the US state or country in which you reside, you may have specific rights under applicable law, including the right to access, correct, or delete the personal information we hold about you. Only you, or someone legally authorized to act on your behalf, may make a verifiable consumer request related to your personal information. Please understand that we are required to verify your request and may require you to provide some information to enable us to carry out such verification. We cannot respond to your request or provide you with personal information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the personal information relates to you.
Making a verifiable consumer request does not require you to create an account with us. We will only use Personal Data provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor's identity or authority to make the request.
If we refuse to take action on a request to exercise your rights, in accordance with applicable law you may appeal our refusal to us within a reasonable period of time. We will inform you in writing of any action taken or not taken in response to the appeal, including a written explanation of the reasons for the decisions, within the time period specified in the applicable state law. If the appeal is denied, we will also provide you with information about how to contact your Attorney General to submit a complaint.

Additional Information for European Residents
You have specific rights regarding your Personal Data that we collect and process. Please note that you can only exercise these rights with respect to Personal Data that we process about you when we act as a data controller. To exercise your rights with respect to Personal Data processed by us on behalf of one of our customers, please read the privacy notice of that customer.
In this section, we first describe your data protection rights and then we explain how you can exercise those rights.
We acknowledge the right of EU, UK and Swiss individuals to access their Personal Data pursuant to the Data Privacy Framework and will grant individuals reasonable access to Personal Data we received pursuant to the Data Privacy Framework Principles. In addition, we will take reasonable steps to permit individuals to correct, amend, or delete such information that is demonstrated to be inaccurate or processed in violation of the Data Privacy Framework Principles. Additionally, if we have received your Personal Data in reliance on the Data Privacy Framework, you may also have the right to opt out of having your Personal Data shared with third parties and to revoke your consent to our sharing your Personal Data with third parties. You may also have the right to opt out if your Personal Data is used for any purpose that is materially different from the purpose(s) for which it was originally collected or which you originally authorized. An individual may request to access their Personal Data, or otherwise correct, amend, delete, withdraw their consent or limit the processing of their Personal Data in line with the Data Privacy Framework Principles by contacting us.
Right to know what happens to your Personal Data
This is called the right to be informed. It means that you have the right to obtain from us all information regarding our data processing activities that concern you, such as how we collect and use your Personal Data, how long we will keep it, and who it will be shared with, among other things.
We are informing you of how we process your Personal Data with this Notice.
We will make every effort to let you know how we use your Personal Data. However, if we did not get your data directly from you, the GDPR does not require us to inform you in these cases: (1) When it is impossible or too costly to provide the information. (2) When the law obliges us to gather or share the data. (3) If the Personal Data must stay confidential because of professional or other secrecy obligations.
Right to know what Personal Data BioSensics has about you
This is called the right of access. This right allows you to (1) get confirmation of whether we process Personal Data about you (2) ask for full details of the Personal Data we hold about you and certain related information; (3) get a copy or access to the Personal Data.
You have the right to ask us to confirm whether or not we process Personal Data concerning you, and, where that is the case, to request a copy or access to the Personal Data and certain related information.
Once we receive and confirm that a request came from you or your authorized agent, we will disclose to you:
The categories of your Personal Data that we process;
The categories of sources for your Personal Data;
Our purposes for processing your Personal Data;
Where possible, the retention period for your Personal Data, or, if not possible, the criteria used to determine the retention period;
The categories of third parties with whom we share your Personal Data;
If we carry out automated decision-making, including profiling, meaningful information about the logic involved, as well as the significance and the envisaged consequences of such processing for you;
The specific pieces of Personal Data we process about you in an easily‑sharable format;
If we rely on legitimate interests as a lawful basis to process your Personal Data, the specific legitimate interests; and
The appropriate safeguards used to transfer Personal Data from the EEA or the UK to a third country, if applicable.
Under some circumstances, we may deny your access request. In that event, we will respond to you with the reason for the denial.
For security and legal compliance, we cannot disclose certain sensitive information like Social Security numbers, driver’s license numbers, financial account numbers, health insurance or medical IDs, passwords, or security questions and answers. However, we can inform you if we have such information without disclosing specific details.
Right to change your Personal Data
This is called the right to rectification. It gives you the right to ask us to correct without undue delay anything that you think is wrong with the Personal Data we have on file about you, and to complete any incomplete Personal Data.
Right to delete your Personal Data
This is called the right to erasure, right to deletion, or the right to be forgotten. This right means you can ask for your Personal Data to be deleted.
For individuals enrolled within a clinical trial, please contact your study coordinator or principal investigator. Others, please email privacy@biosensics.com.
Sometimes we can delete your information, but other times it is not possible for either technical or legal reasons. If that is the case, we will consider if we can limit how we use it. We will also inform you of our reason for denying your deletion request.
Right to ask us to limit how we process your Personal Data
This is called the right to restrict processing. It is the right to ask us to only use or store your Personal Data for certain purposes. You have this right in certain instances, such as where you believe the data is inaccurate or the processing activity is unlawful.
Right to ask us to stop using your Personal Data
This is called the right to object. This is your right to tell us to stop using your Personal Data. You have this right where we rely on a legitimate interest of ours (or of a third party). You may also object at any time to the processing of your Personal Data for direct marketing purposes.
We will stop processing the relevant Personal Data unless: (i) we have compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that override your interests, rights, or freedoms; or (ii) we need to continue processing your Personal Data to establish, exercise, or defend a legal claim.
Right to port or move your Personal Data
This is called the right to data portability. It is the right to ask for and receive a portable copy of your Personal Data that you have given us or that you have generated by using our Services, so that you can:
Move it;
Copy it;
Keep it for yourself; or
Transfer it to another organization.
We will provide your Personal Data in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format. When you request this information electronically, we will provide you a copy in electronic format.
Right to withdraw your consent
Where we rely on your consent as the legal basis for processing your Personal Data, you may withdraw your consent at any time. If you withdraw your consent, our use of your Personal Data before you withdraw is still lawful.
If you have given consent for your details to be shared with a third party and wish to withdraw this consent, please also contact the relevant third party in order to change your preferences.
How can you exercise your rights?
To exercise your rights described above, please submit a request by emailing us at privacy@biosensics.com or by postal mail at:
BioSensics, LLC
57 Chapel Street, Suite 200
Newton, MA 02458
USA
Verification of your identity
In order to correctly respond to your privacy rights requests, we need to confirm that you actually made the request. Consequently, we may require additional information to confirm that you are who you say you are.
We will only use the Personal Data you provide us in a request to verify your identity or authority to make the request.
Verification of Authority
If you are submitting a request on behalf of somebody else, we will need to verify your authority to act on behalf of that individual. When contacting us, please provide us with proof that the individual gave you signed permission to submit this request, a valid power of attorney on behalf of the individual, or proof of parental responsibility or legal guardianship. Alternatively, you may ask the individual to directly contact us by using the contact details above to verify their identity with BioSensics and confirm with us that they gave you permission to submit this request.
Response timing and format of our responses
We will confirm the receipt of your request within ten (10) business days, and, in that communication, we will also describe our identity verification process (if needed) and when you should expect a response, unless we have already granted or denied the request.
Please allow us up to thirty (30) days to reply to your requests from the day we received your request. If we need more time (up to 90 days in total), we will inform you of the reason why and the extension period in writing.
If we cannot satisfy a request, we will explain why in our response. For data portability requests, we will choose a format to provide your Personal Data that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without difficulty.
We will not charge a fee for processing or responding to your requests. However, we may charge a fee if we determine that your request is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. In those cases, we will tell you why we made that determination and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.
Data Retention
We will retain your Personal Data for as long as is necessary to fulfill the purpose for which we collected your Personal Data and any other permitted linked purpose and in compliance with our data retention policies. For example, we will retain and use your Personal Data to the extent necessary to comply with our legal obligations (for example, if we are required to retain your data to comply with applicable laws), resolve disputes, and enforce our legal agreements and policies.
If your Personal Data is used for more than one purpose, we will retain it until the purpose with the longest retention period expires; but we will stop using it for the purpose with a shorter retention period once that period expires. Our retention periods are also based on our business needs and good practice.
Your Personal Data may need to be retained in our backup systems and will only be deleted or overwritten at a later time, our backup schedules vary by system and the nature of the data. This may be the case even when you or a Supervisory Authority has validly asked us to delete your Personal Data or when we no longer have a legal basis for processing such Personal Data. Please note that our backups are protected, and we have implemented a system to remind us to delete the data again when we restore a backup to production systems.
Factors that may be relevant to determining how long we keep Personal Data include:
The purposes for which we collected it;
The length of time we have an ongoing relationship with you and provide services to you (for example, for as long as you are an active customer with us or keep using our services) and the length of time thereafter during which we may have a legitimate need to reference your Personal Data to address issues that may arise;
Your preferences and how you engage with our sites and services;
Any applicable legal or regulatory requirements; and
Whether we need the information for our business purposes, or to protect our rights (for example, in actual or potential litigation).
BioSensics may collect and generate information about you when you interact with our website, which may include name and contact information (as described above), information about the device you use to interact with our website, and information about your interaction with our website (such as content you view, features you access, sites you view immediately before and after you access our website, content you view on our website, search terms you use on our website, and content in which you have indicated interest).

We use session and persistent cookies. Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies may remain even after you close your browser, but always have an expiration date. Most of the cookies placed on your device through our website are first-party cookies which are placed directly by us. Other parties, such as Google and Hubspot, may also set their own (third-party) cookies through our websites. Please refer to the privacy notices of these third parties to learn more about the way in which they collect and process information about you.
BioSensics may use web beacons or pixels. Web beacons are a small tag (which may be invisible to you) that may be placed on our website’s pages and messages.

We may use this information to improve our current service offerings, develop new services, and target information to you that may be helpful and useful to you based upon your use of our services.
BioSensics may use third-party analytics tracking technologies and tools to collect information about how you use our website, such as the frequency of visits, pages viewed, traffic data, location, referring and exit pages, and error information. These tools may also collect device information, discussed above. These tools examine website activities to prepare usage reports, and this information helps us improve our website and enhance user experience. Tracking information will be shared with the third-party analytics provider, which may use that information for its own purposes, potentially including marketing or advertising. While the tracking information we collect through such tools is not sufficient on its own for BioSensics to identify you, the third-party analytics provider may be able to combine it with other data it has to identify you.

Security of your Personal Data
