App Privacy Policy

We are committed to protecting and respecting your privacy. We are a data controller under UK law. This means we are responsible for determining the purposes for which and the way the personal information provided through the InfiHealth mobile application is processed. Please note that the App interacts with other third parties (including GPs, healthcare providers and NHS central services). In some cases, we are simply processing your personal information on their behalf. Such third parties may also be data controllers and have their own privacy policies.

Personal Information means information that identifies you personally such as your name, photo, contact details, appointment details, medical record details or data that can be linked with such information to identify you.

What does this policy relate to?

This policy applies to your use of the InfiHealth mobile application software (“App”), from the site from which you downloaded the App (“Appstore”), once you have downloaded the App onto your mobile or handheld device. This policy also applies to any of the services accessible through the App (“Services”).

This policy sets out the basis on which any personal information we collect from you, or that you provide to us or that is provided to us by other third parties will be processed by us. Please read this policy carefully to understand our practices regarding your personal information and how we will treat it.

What personal information does InfiHealth collect?

This is information you give us about you when filling in forms/screens on the App or registering for Services through InfiHealth, any interactions you undertake or services you request or source through InfiHealth and via any health or monitoring device you connect to InfiHealth or by corresponding with us by phone, e-mail or otherwise.  It will be clear at the time what personal information we are requesting from you. If you do not provide the personal information necessary or withdraw your consent for the processing of your personal information, where this information is necessary for us to provide InfiHealth services to you, we will not be able to provide these services to you.  You do not have to provide data and can simply choose to stop using the App at any time.

Each time you use InfiHealth we automatically collect the following information:
Technical information, including the type of mobile device you use, a unique device identifier, mobile network information, your mobile operating system, and time zone setting; information either accessed through your device or stored on your device which you have explicitly consented to sharing, and the providence of that data including the device used to collect that data, time, date; and details of your use of InfiHealth.

3. Information we receive from other sources.

We may receive information about you from third parties to facilitate provision of the Services. This may include information provided from your GP or other healthcare provider such as your name, NHS number and relevant contact details as well as sensitive information about you including your medical records and booked GP appointments. They provide such data to us to enable us to provide the services to you.

How does InfiHealth use your personal information?

We DO NOT use your data for marketing purposes.

Where we rely on legitimate interest as a ground for processing your personal information, we carry out a ‘balancing test’ to ensure that our processing is necessary and that your fundamental rights of privacy are not outweighed by our legitimate interests, before we go ahead with such processing. We keep a record of these balancing tests. You have a right to the information contained in these balancing tests on request and can find out more by contacting us using the details below.

4. Where we have your explicit consent

Where any of the personal information we use contains data concerning health related information and racial or ethnic information, religious or philosophical beliefs, trade union membership data, genetic/ biometric data and sex life or sexual orientation data (together ”sensitive information”), in addition to the above, where you provide this data to us directly through your use of the App, we rely on you having provided us explicit consent to use such data when you input this data into the APP.

5. Where we rely on your GP or healthcare provider’s Medical diagnosis or healthcare purposes

Where any of the personal information we use contains Sensitive Information, in addition to the above, where this data is received from your GP or other healthcare provider we rely on the lawful basis of the GP or healthcare provider to use such data for medical diagnosis or healthcare purposes.

When determining the relevant retention periods, we will consider factors including:

  • our contractual obligations and rights in relation to the information involved
  • legal obligation(s) under applicable law to retain data for a certain period
  • statute of limitations under applicable law(s)
  • our legitimate interests where we have carried out balancing tests (see section on ‘How do we use your information above)

These Third-party Sites are not under our control, and we are not responsible for and do not endorse their content or their privacy policies (if any). You will need to make your own independent judgement regarding your interaction with any Third-party Sites, including the purchase and use of any products or services accessible through them.

What rights do you have?

By law, you have several rights (subject to certain conditions) when it comes to your information. Further information and advice about your rights can be obtained from the data protection regulator in your country (ICO). You can exercise any of these rights by contacting us through our details below.

Rights What does this mean?
The right to object to processing You have the right to object to certain types of processing, including processing where we rely on our legitimate interest as a ground for processing.
The right to be informed You have the right to be provided with clear, transparent, and easily understandable information about how we use your information and your rights. Therefore, we are providing you with the information in this Privacy Policy.
The right of access You have the right to obtain access to your information (if we are processing it), and certain other information (like that provided in this Privacy Policy).

This is so you are aware and can check that we are using your information in accordance with data protection law.
The right to rectification You are entitled to have your information corrected if it is inaccurate or incomplete.
The right to erasure This is also known as ‘the right to be forgotten’ and, in simple terms, enables you to request the deletion or removal of your information where there is no compelling reason for us to keep using it. This is not a general right to erasure, there are exceptions.
The right to restrict processing You have rights to ‘block’ or suppress further use of your information. When processing is restricted, we can still store your information, but may not use it further. We keep lists of people who have asked for further use of their information to be ‘blocked’ to make sure the restriction is respected in future.
The right to data portability You have rights to obtain and reuse your information for your own purposes across different services. For example, if you decide to switch to a new provider, this enables you to move, copy or transfer your information easily between our IT systems and theirs safely and securely, without affecting its usability.

The right to withdraw consent If you have given your consent to anything we do with your information, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time (although if you do so, it does not mean that anything we have done with your information with your consent up to that point is unlawful). Note that such withdrawal in certain circumstance may mean we can no longer continue to provide the Services to you.

We usually act on requests and provide information free of charge, but may charge a reasonable fee to cover our administrative costs of providing the information for:
  • baseless or excessive/repeated requests, or
  • further copies of the same information.
Alternatively, we may be entitled to refuse to act on the request.

Please consider your request responsibly before submitting it. We will respond as soon as we can. Generally, this will be within one month from when we receive your request but, if the request is going to take longer to deal with, we will come back to you and let you know.
