Privacy Policy for VitalLens

Last updated: 12 December 2023

Welcome to VitalLens! Your privacy is important to us, and we are committed to protecting it. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your personal information when you use our app VitalLens. By using the app, you agree to the terms outlined in this policy.

1. What Information Do We Collect and How Is This Done?

Most importantly, we do not collect your video or vitals data through VitalLens.

Beyond that, we use the following third-party services which collect data unrelated to your video or vitals:

  • Google AdMob: Unless you have paid to remove ads and opted out of all ads, we use Google AdMob for displaying advertisements. AdMob collects data for ad targeting (unrelated to your video and vitals). Unless you have opted out of this behavior, AdMob also employs a unique identifier associated with your device.
  • Google Firebase Analytics: We use Google Firebase Analytics to collect analytical data on how our app is performing. This includes information about app usage, user interactions, and device information (again, unrelated to your video or vitals).

As a third party collecting information on our behalf, Google is required to provide the same or equal protection of user data as stated in this Privacy Policy. View Google's privacy policy at https://policies.google.com/privacy.

We do not share your data with any other third parties.

2. How Is Your Information Used?

  • Google AdMob: Google AdMob uses the information it has available to show more relevant ads. See also how Google uses information from apps that use their services: https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites
  • Google Firebase Analytics: We use the data provided by Google Firebase Analytics to help us identify areas for improvement, understand user behavior, and enhance your experience with VitalLens.

3. Data Retention and Your Privacy Choices

  • Data Retention: We retain data collected by Google that is associated with cookies, user identifiers, or advertising identifiers for a period of 2 months to fulfill the purposes outlined in Section 2 of this Privacy Policy.
  • Opting Out: We will ask you whether you want to opt out of tracking related to ads. If you choose to opt out, we will no longer allow AdMob to use your unique identifier to track you.
  • Requesting Deletion: You can request the deletion of your data by contacting us at vitallens@rouast.com.

  • In compliance with GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation), users in the EEA (European Economic Area) will see a message asking for their consent regarding the data collected through Google AdMob and Google Firebase Analytics. If you wish to change your consent settings, you can do so by using the "Change consent settings" button in the info screen.
  • In compliance with US State Regulations, we restrict data processing to only show non-personalised ads for users located in applicable states.

4. Updates to Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices. The date of the latest revision will be indicated at the top of the page.
