3. Data Retention

We retain your data for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the App. Specific retention periods are as follows:

• Backup data: Cloud backups may be retained for up to 30 additional days following account deletion to support data recovery in the event of accidental deletion, after which they are permanently purged.

You may request deletion of your data at any time by contacting us at the address below. Upon a verified deletion request, we will remove your personal and health data from our systems within 30 days.

4. Data Security

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your information, including encryption of sensitive health and biometric data at rest. However, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

5. Third-Party Services

We use the following trusted third-party service providers to operate the App. These providers process data only as necessary to provide their services and are bound by appropriate data protection agreements:

We do not sell, trade, or transfer your personally identifiable or health information to any other outside parties.

6. Your Rights & Choices
