Your Choices about Our Collection, Use and Disclosure of Your Information

We strive to provide you with choices regarding the PII you provide to us. This section describes mechanisms we provide for you to control certain uses and disclosures of over your information.

• Tracking Technologies. You can set your browser to refuse all or some browser cookies, or to alert you when cookies are being sent. If you disable or refuse cookies or block the use of other tracking technologies, some parts of the App may then be inaccessible or not function properly.
• Location Information. You can choose whether or not to allow the App to collect and use real-time information about your device’s location through the device’s privacy settings. If you block the use of location information, some parts of the App may then be inaccessible or not function properly.
• Opt-In for Health Care Businesses. For use of NextMe with businesses relating to health care services, we will by default not collect or store any information that would be designated as protected health information. You may request an opt-in status that permits us to collect protected health information and use such information in the manner defined throughout this Policy, however the decision on whether to grant this opt-in to expanded data collection will be determined solely by us. We value your privacy first. Opt-in requests will be denied if we determine that collection of the requested data impermissibly includes protected health information without adequate safeguards to protect the security and privacy of such information.

You can review and change your personal information by logging into the App and visiting your account profile page.

You may also send us an e-mail at [email protected] to request access to, correct or delete any personal information that you have provided to us, and such request shall be honored within 14 business days of its receipt. We cannot delete your personal information except by also deleting your user account. We may not accommodate a request to change information if we believe the change would violate any law or legal requirement or cause the information to be incorrect.

If you delete your User Contributions from the App, copies of your User Contributions may remain viewable in cached and archived pages or might have been copied or stored by other App users.

Your California Privacy Rights

California Civil Code Section 1798.83 permits users of our App that are California residents to request certain information regarding our disclosure of PII to third parties for their direct marketing purposes. To make such a request, please send an e-mail to [email protected].

Data Security

We have implemented measures designed to secure your PII from accidental loss and from unauthorized access, use, alteration and disclosure.

The safety and security of your information also depends on you. Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password for access to certain parts of our App, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share your password with anyone. We urge you to be careful about giving out information in public areas of the App like message boards. The information you share in public areas may be viewed by any user of the App.

Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet and mobile platforms is not completely secure. Although we do our best to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information transmitted through our App. Any transmission of personal information is at your own risk. We are not responsible for circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures we provide.

Changes to Our Privacy Policy

We may update our privacy policy from time to time. If we make material changes to how we treat our users’ personal information, we will post the new privacy policy on this page.
