5. Data Security

Your Responsibility

We take your privacy and the security of your information very seriously. But it’s not just up to us to keep your information safe. You also play a role in keeping your information secure. If you have a password to access our Websites, it’s important that you keep it a secret and don’t share it with anyone. This way, only you can access your account and protect your information.

While we do our best to protect your personal information, it’s important to know that no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure. This means that when you send information to our Websites, there is a small risk that it could be accessed by unauthorized people. So please be cautious and aware when sharing personal information online. We cannot be responsible for any privacy settings or security measures that are bypassed or ignored by others on our Websites, in your operating system, or in our application.

Authentication

We do not host PHI on our Websites that do not require secure accounts and authentication. Our Websites that do not host PHI are available to everyone on the internet, and represent information made generally available by us, and these sites receive information made available by visitors and users.

Retention

We retain your information in our server logs, our databases, and our records for as long as necessary to provide the test kits and Services. In some cases we may retain some of your information for a longer period, where we have a legitimate business interest to do so (such as to contact you to provide you with relevant information about our test kits and Services or to maintain your account with us), in order to comply with our legal or regulatory obligations, to resolve disputes or defend against legal claims, or to enforce our Terms and Conditions.

Technical and Organizational Measures

We have implemented technical and organizational security measures to protect the security and integrity of your Personal Information in accordance with this Privacy Statement and applicable law. Such measures include restricting access to Personal Data on a “need-to-know” basis, and securing Personal Information using industry-standard administrative, physical, and technical safeguards. We do our best to protect our systems and information from unauthorized access or changes.

While we endeavor to always protect our systems, sites, operations, and information against unauthorized access, use, modification, and disclosure, it is important for you to know that, despite using these current industry-recommended practices, we cannot guarantee against breaches in security.
