Privacy Policy
Your Information. Your Rights. Our Responsibility
Last Updated and Effective: December 11, 2024
Get Baseline Inc. values your trust, and protecting your information is a high priority. Baseline is committed to your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information Baseline and its affiliates (collectively, “Baseline” or “we”) collect, how information that identifies or may reasonably identify you (“Personal Information”) is collected, how we use that Personal Information, what Personal Information is shared with whom, and how Baseline protects your Personal Information when you use our non-clinical products and services, including our website and certain uses of the Clarity platform, independent of receiving clinical healthcare services (collectively, the “Services”).
When This Privacy Applies
This Privacy Policy applies to our services, websites and mobile applications that are separate or independent of any healthcare clinical services our partners provide to you, including through your purchase of Get Baseline, Inc. Programs.
This Privacy Policy does not apply to: (1) our collection, use, or disclosure of HIPAA protected health information from the Get Baseline platform or any other healthcare clinical service, (2) other services that have separate privacy policies that do not incorporate this Privacy Policy, and (3) to services offered by other companies or individuals, including products or sites that may be displayed to you in search results, sites that may include Services, or other sites linked from our Services.
Additionally, our Services is only intended for use within the United States. Our Privacy Policy also does not cover the information practices of other companies and organizations who advertise our Services, and who may use cookies, pixel tags and other technologies to serve and offer relevant ads.
Once you register to receive clinical healthcare services with us, any individually-identifiable health information will be governed by the healthcare providers’ Notice of Privacy Practices for protected health information or “PHI.” If you are registered to receive such services you acknowledge that you have read and understood the Notice of Privacy Practices.
By using our Services, you affirm that you have read this Privacy Policy and our Website Terms of Use and that you understand, agree to be bound by, and acknowledge all the terms contained herein. If you do not agree to be bound by the terms of this Privacy Policy, our Website Terms of Use, our affiliated providers’ Notice of Privacy Practices, and the applicable Terms of Service, you should discontinue your use of the Services.
Protected Health Information (PHI) Under HIPAA
This Privacy Policy does not apply to our collection and use of your PHI.
For your information only, as part of providing certain healthcare services, we may collect certain PHI from patients, which is governed by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act or “HIPAA”. Specifically, we may act as a business associate (as defined by HIPAA) when we (1) provide certain management services to a healthcare provider, and the healthcare provider is a covered entity as defined by HIPAA, and (2) receive PHI about a patient on behalf of a healthcare provider. The collection, use, and disclosure of such PHI is done in accordance with the healthcare provider’s Notice of Privacy Practices. A copy of such notices for the healthcare providers that we manage is available here.
However, this Privacy Policy applies to only certain Personal Information that we collect about you as a user when we are not acting as a business associate under HIPAA. As described in more detail below, this might include Personal Information such as your device ID or IP address, collected as a result of your use of the Services.
