“Trust begins with knowing exactly how information is handled — and why.”
— GetMyVitals Privacy Principle

1. Scope of this policy

This Privacy Policy describes how GetMyVitals (“we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, and protects information when you visit or interact with our website. It applies to all visitors and users of the Site.

By using GetMyVitals, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this policy. If you do not agree with its terms, please discontinue use of the Site.

2. Information we collect

We aim to collect only the minimum information necessary to operate and improve the Site. The types of information we may process include:

  • Automatically collected data

    When you visit the Site, standard technical information may be logged (such as IP address, browser type, device information, pages viewed, and approximate location derived from IP). This helps us maintain security, diagnose issues, and understand general usage patterns.

  • Information you provide

    If you contact us voluntarily (for example through a contact form or email), we receive the details you choose to share, such as your name, email address, and message content.

  • Cookies and similar technologies

    We may use cookies or similar tools for essential site functions, analytics, and performance measurement. You can control cookie settings through your browser.

3. How we use information

Information is used for the following limited purposes:

• To operate, maintain, and secure the Site
• To understand how the Site is used so we can improve content and performance
• To respond to inquiries you send us
• To comply with legal obligations when required

We do not use personal information for targeted advertising based on sensitive health data, nor do we sell personal information to third parties.

4. Analytics and third-party services

We may use standard analytics tools to understand aggregate traffic and usage patterns. These tools typically process anonymized or aggregated data. Where third-party services are used, they operate under their own privacy policies.

We select service providers with care and only for purposes consistent with operating an educational website.

5. Data retention

We retain information only for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, or as required by law. Contact inquiries are retained long enough to respond and for reasonable record-keeping. Technical logs are typically rotated or deleted on a regular schedule.

6. Security

We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information against unauthorized access, loss, or misuse. However, no method of transmission or storage over the internet is completely secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security.

7. Children’s privacy

GetMyVitals is not directed at children under the age of 13 (or the equivalent minimum age in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we become aware that we have collected such information, we will take steps to delete it.

8. Your choices and rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights regarding your personal information, including the right to access, correct, or request deletion of data we hold about you, or to object to certain processing.

You can control cookies through your browser settings. You may also contact us to exercise applicable rights or to ask questions about this policy.

9. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The revised version will be posted on this page with an updated effective indication. Continued use of the Site after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy. We encourage you to review this page periodically.

10. Contact
