Will we disclose your personal information to third parties?

WE WILL NEVER SELL YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS, OR ANY OTHER PERSONAL INFORMATION, TO ANY THIRD PARTY WITHOUT YOUR PERMISSION. 

Except as described in this section, we will not disclose your personal information to any third party without notifying you of our intent to share the information.

From time to time, we may partner with companies based on the interests of our users. In such case, we will do so in a manner that respects your privacy and is consistent with the disclosures in this Privacy Policy.

Iodine reserves the right to disclose information when required by law.

We use other companies to perform services necessary to our operations. While providing these services, those companies may have access to your personal information.  However, except as expressly agreed in writing with an Iodine customer, we will not be liable for any damages that may result from the misuse of your personal information by these companies.

Iodine may use your IP address to help diagnose problems with Iodine’s server and to administer Iodine’s web site. Your IP address may also be used to help identify you and your online profile and to gather broad demographic information.

The Iodine site registration form requires users to give Iodine contact information (such as your name and email address) and other information. Iodine uses your contact information from the registration form to send you information about Iodine. Your contact information may also be used to contact you when necessary.

We may also disclose, on an anonymous basis, statements made by our users. With your consent, we may also post your name along with your statement or testimonial.

Protected Health Information (“PHI”)

Iodine’s services involve information that qualifies as PHI subject to the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). Iodine enters into business associate agreements with its customers and service providers in accordance with HIPAA. Iodine and its service providers may use and disclose protected health information in accordance with such agreements. Iodine services may involve the aggregation or de-identification of PHI, and the use or disclosure of such aggregated or de-identified information as permitted by applicable laws and customer contractual agreements.

For additional information regarding HIPAA, including information concerning patient privacy rights, visit https://www.hhs.gov/ocr/privacy.

Other Information

Iodine may collect, use and disclose other information from your use of the website, applications or services, provided such information does not individually identify you or otherwise qualify as personal information (or similar) under applicable law. Iodine shall have the right to aggregate and retain records of such data including, but not limited to, usage, activity logs, and click-throughs. Iodine may de-identify personal information in accordance with applicable laws and any applicable contractual agreement. Iodine may disclose data under this section, whether in the form collected or a derivative form, to third parties provided it is presented in an aggregate or deidentified form.

Additional Privacy Rights

If you live in a jurisdiction that provides for additional rights regarding your personal information, such as the right to access or delete your personal information, or your personal information is covered by an applicable law that provides for additional rights, please contact us using the contact information below to exercise those rights.

California Privacy Rights

In this section, we provide additional information to residents in certain US states, including California, about the categories of personal information we collect or about your privacy rights under applicable law such as the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”). 

Below is a list of categories of personal data we collect and may have collected or disclosed in the past 12 months:

Category A: Identifiers;
Category B: Personal Data categories listed in the California Customer Records statute;
Category C: Protected classification characteristics under California or federal law;
Category D: Commercial information;
Category F: Internet or other electronic network activity;
Category G: Geolocation data; and
Category I: Professional or employment-related information.

Because PHI is excluded from the CCPA definition of personal information, the preceding disclosure primarily relates to our employees, prospective employees and business contacts in California. The above list does not include information about personal data collected and disclosed while operating as a service provider to our customers.

We maintain personal information for as long as is necessary for the fulfillment of the purposes described herein, or otherwise described at the time of collection, unless otherwise restricted by an applicable law or Iodine has adopted a shorter data retention period.

Additionally, we have not sold for valuable consideration or shared for cross-contextual behavioral advertising any consumer’s personal information in the preceding 12 months.

If you meet the definition of a consumer under the CCPA and we have collected personal information (as defined in the CCPA and subject to its exemptions and limitations) about you, please contact us at compliance@iodinesoftware.com or send a letter to the address below to submit a request to access, correct or delete your personal information, or exercise any other rights provided by the law, such as the right to limit the use of your sensitive personal information. We will not discriminate or retaliate against, or penalize, an individual for the exercise of their rights under the CCPA.

Because we do not sell, for valuable consideration, or share, for cross-contextual behavioral advertising, personal information of consumers subject to the CCPA, we do not offer the right to opt-out of the sale or sharing of personal information at this time.

California Civil Code Section 1798.83 permits you to request certain information regarding our disclosure of personal data to third parties for the third parties’ direct marketing purposes. To make such a request, please contact us by sending an email to compliance@iodinesoftware.com.

Our site, products, and services are not intended to appeal to minors.  However, if you are a California resident under the age of 18, and a registered user of our site or service, California Business and Professions Code Section 22581 permits you to request and obtain removal of content or information you have publicly posted. To make such a request, please send an email with a detailed description of the specific content or information to compliance@iodinesoftware.com. We will process your request in compliance with applicable law.

Under California law, California residents who have an established business relationship with us may opt-out of our disclosing personal data about them to third parties for their marketing purposes.

Children’s Privacy

We do not knowingly collect any information from anyone who we know to be under the age of 13. If you are under the age of 18, you should use this website only with the involvement of a parent or guardian and should not submit any personal information to us. If we discover that a person under the age of 13 has provided us with any personal information, we will use commercially reasonable efforts to delete such person’s personal information from all Iodine systems.

Global Positioning System

Global Positioning System (GPS) tracking technology may need to be enabled in Iodine products and services in order to determine the location (latitude and longitude) of users of the Iodine products and services. We will request your permission prior to such geolocation tracking. Where authorized, this information is transmitted as necessary for the products and services, which may include transmission to Iodine, its service providers (including hosting provider), and Iodine’s users or customers. Iodine does not provide this information to any other third party.  This information is used in conjunction with Iodine’s applications. You acknowledge and consent to the use of this technology where it is enabled, unless you (a) decline access to such information in the app; or (b) contact us via the contact information below. Some elements of the services may not be accessible to you if you decline to provide geolocation data.

Push Notifications

Push notifications are the messages that mobile apps send to your mobile device. You may receive notifications for new messages and invites and other messages related to Iodine and/or its software and services. Other message types may be considered for push notifications in the future. You can also control which notifications you currently receive.

We send push notifications to your mobile device through services such as Apple’s Push Notification Service for iOS devices and Google’s CD2M and Cloud Messaging for Android devices. Both services are standard features of these mobile device operating systems. However, to ensure you receive proper notifications, we will need to collect certain information about your device such as operating system and user identification information. The privacy policy of the service provider manages access, use and disclosure of your personal data that results from your use of these services. If you no longer wish to receive these types of communications, you may turn them off at the device level.

Security

Iodine uses industry-standard technologies when transferring and receiving consumer data exchanged between Iodine and other companies to help ensure its security. This site has security measures in place to protect the loss, misuse and alteration of the information under Iodine’s control. Iodine’s servers are backed up regularly and protected by security systems. However, there is no guarantee that your personal information in any system is completely secure.

Links

Iodine may create links to other web sites. Iodine will make a reasonable effort to link only to sites that meet similar standards for maintaining each individual’s right to privacy.
