Privacy Policy

Last updated: Pending legal review

1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how Hey, Jude ("Hey, Jude," "we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, and shares information when you use our website and platform (the "Platform"). Hey, Jude provides non-clinical technology, administrative, and coordination services. Hey, Jude does not practice medicine, prescribe or dispense medication, ship medication, operate as a pharmacy, or sell medical supplies. This Policy describes the information Hey, Jude handles and how information may flow to the independent clinicians, pharmacies, payment processors, and other third-party partners involved in providing requested services.

2. Platform Data

When you use the Platform, we automatically collect technical and usage information such as device and browser information, IP address, pages viewed, and similar data collected through cookies and similar technologies, which we use to operate, secure, and improve the Platform.

3. Account and Contact Information

We collect information you provide to create and manage your account, such as your name, email address, phone number, and the contents of messages you send us.

4. Assessment and Health-Related Information

When you complete an intake or assessment, you may provide health history, goals, and related information. This information is collected to facilitate evaluation by an independent licensed healthcare professional. The legal protections that apply to specific information depend on the role of each party that handles it; the independent clinicians and pharmacies involved in your care handle information under their own applicable obligations.

5. Information Provided to Independent Clinicians

We may facilitate the transmission of your intake, assessment, and account information to the applicable independent licensed healthcare professional so they can evaluate you and make medical decisions. Those professionals handle the information they receive under their own legal and professional obligations and, where applicable, their own Notice of Privacy Practices.

6. Information Provided to Independent Pharmacies

When treatment is prescribed, we may facilitate the transmission of the information needed for dispensing and fulfillment to the applicable independent licensed pharmacy. The pharmacy handles that information under its own legal obligations.

7. Payment Information

Payment card details are collected and processed directly by third-party payment processors or merchants, not stored by Hey, Jude. We may receive limited transaction information needed for account and administrative purposes.

8. Support Communications

When you contact support, we collect the information you provide to respond to and document your request.

9. How We Use Information

We use information to operate and secure the Platform, create and manage accounts, facilitate the services you request from independent clinicians, pharmacies, and third-party partners, provide support, prevent fraud and abuse, send administrative communications, and comply with legal obligations. Where permitted, we may send marketing communications you can opt out of.

10. How We Share Information

We may facilitate the transmission of information to the applicable independent clinician, pharmacy, payment processor, or other third-party partner involved in providing requested services. We also share information with service providers who perform functions on our behalf (such as hosting, analytics, and communications), and we may disclose information to comply with law, enforce our terms, protect rights and safety, or in connection with a business transaction. We do not sell your personal information for money.

11. Website Analytics

We use analytics tools to understand how the Platform is used and to improve it. These tools may collect usage and device information through cookies and similar technologies.

12. Cookies

We use cookies and similar technologies to operate the Platform, remember your preferences and session, and understand usage. You can manage cookies through your browser settings; disabling some cookies may affect Platform functionality.

13. Advertising Technology

Where used, advertising and measurement technologies may help us reach and understand audiences. You may have choices about certain advertising cookies through your browser or device settings and applicable opt-out tools.

14. Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as needed to provide the Platform, fulfill the purposes described in this Policy, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.

15. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or port your personal information, to opt out of certain processing or marketing, and to limit the sale or sharing of personal information. To exercise these rights, contact us at privacy@heyjude.com. We will respond as required by applicable law and will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights.

16. State Health-Data Rights

Some states provide additional rights regarding health-related information. Where those laws apply, we honor the rights they provide.

17. Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

18. Children

The Platform is intended for individuals who are at least 18 years old and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If we learn we have done so, we will delete it.

19. Provider Notice of Privacy Practices

Independent healthcare professionals may maintain their own Notice of Privacy Practices governing the clinical information they hold. Where one applies, it will be made available by the applicable provider.
