Your privacy is in us. We intend to respect your privacy and comply with any applicable law and regulation regarding any Personal Information we may collect about you, including across our websites and web/mobile apps we own and operate. 

This Privacy Policy (the “Privacy Policy”) applies to our service, Atuvera meal plan, provided through the website at https://atuvera.co, and web app Atuvera, mobile app, supplementary services such as health coaches (online or over the phone), and meal providers (the “Services”).

We intend to give you as much control over your Personal Information as possible to preserve your privacy while still allowing us to utilize that Personal Information in our business to analyze data to provide you with a valuable service. 

As a user of our Services or a website visitor, you must accept this Privacy Policy. If you do not consent to the terms of the Privacy Policy, please do not access the websites or use the Services. 

What Information We Collect 

Types and Sources of Information

Some of the information we collect about you identifies you. If it identifies you, we call it “Personal Information.” Personal Information does not include publicly available or anonymized information to the point where a specific individual or household cannot be identified from the remaining information. In all cases, if we associate non-identifiable information with information that identifies you, we will treat it as Personal Information. The information we collect can come in any of the following categories:  

a). Personally Identifiable Information (“PII”). 

PII is any data that can be used to identify a specific individual or household. You provide this information when you sign up with our Services or interact with our website. For example, when you set up an account (“Account”), we need to collect a few essential details about you, including your name, email address, phone numbers, login IDs, and Geolocation information or addresses. We do not collect PII unless you provide it to us.  

b). Health Data.

 Health data and information is any information that relates to your past, present, or future physical or mental health or condition and related health care services. We may obtain health information from you or your healthcare provider upon your request and prior approval. We may also collect certain health information such as your height, weight, blood pressure, blood glucose, and gender and display your biometrics based on your input. We will not collect your health information without first obtaining your consent. 

Some health information may be considered Protected Health Information (“PHI”). PHI is identifiable health information we create, receive, maintain, or transmit on behalf of an entity regulated by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability (“HIPAA”) Act. Not all your health data is PHI, even if it identifies you. When you give your healthcare provider permission to send data to us, HIPAA generally no longer protects the information. Ask your healthcare provider for more information when you authorize the disclosure of information to us. If we have PHI, we will use and disclose it only following HIPAA.  Please see our Notice Regarding HIPAA 

c). Usage and log Information (“Usage Information”). 

We collect information about your activity on or through our Services. Usage Information may be stored or accessed using various technologies that may be downloaded to a personal computer, browser, laptop, tablet, mobile phone, or other devices (a “Device”) whenever you visit or interact with our Services. For example, we may collect information about the areas within our website, web or mobile app you have viewed, access times and frequencies, IP addresses, and the URL that referred you to our website or app store.  

d). Device information. 

We may collect information from and about the Device you use. For example, we collect information about your hardware and software, such as the Device used, operating system version, advertising identifiers, unique application identifiers, and browser type. 

e). Information collected by Cookies and other Tracking Technologies. 

Like most online services and web and mobile applications, we may use cookies and other technologies. These technologies include web beacons, web storage, and unique advertising identifiers that collect information about your activity, browser, and Device. We may also use these technologies to collect information when you interact with our Services through one of our partners, such as advertising and commerce features. For example, we may use information collected on other websites to show you more relevant ads.  

f). Information from third parties. 

We may, from time to time, supplement the information we have about you with information from third parties for various purposes, including to enhance our ability to serve you, to tailor the content to you, to offer you opportunities that may be of interest to you, and to improve the performance of our ads. We also collect information from device sensors such as smart devices and health tracking technologies if you authorize it. We do not intentionally seek out any information about you from third parties that you have not consented to providing or sharing. 

g). Created information.

 Our underlying technologies use inferences or calculations using available data to develop information specific to you. For example, we calculate your Body Mass Index using your weight and height data if you provide it. We create and collect this information to provide our Service to you. 

h). Other sensitive information. 

To purchase our Services, we will require you to provide us with a debit or credit card number and the minimum necessary account information to process the transaction. When you contact customer support or communicate with us in any other way, we’ll collect whatever information you volunteer or that we need to resolve your question. Note that our ability to resolve your question could depend on you disclosing the required information.

Using Tracking Technologies

We may use various methods and technologies to store or collect Usage Information (“Tracking Technologies”). Tracking Technologies may set, change, or modify settings or configurations on your device. The Tracking Technologies that may be used are the following (and subsequent technology and methods later developed that perform a similar function): 

Cookies. A cookie is a small text file (typically made up of letters and numbers) placed in your browser's or Device's memory when you visit our website. Cookies may generally be disabled or removed by tools that are available as part of most commercial browsers and, in some but not all instances, can be blocked in the future by selecting specific settings.  

Please be aware that if you disable or remove cookies on your Device, some parts of our website, web/mobile app, and/or Services may not function properly. 

Web Beacons. Small graphic images (also known as “pixel tags”, “1x1 GIFs,” or “clear GIFs”) that may be included on our sites, services, applications, messaging, and tools that typically work in conjunction with cookies to identify our users and user behavior. 

Embedded Scripts. An embedded script is programming code designed to collect information about a user’s interactions with our website, mobile app, and Services, such as the links a user clicks on. The code is temporarily downloaded onto the user’s Device from our web server and/or mobile app or a third-party service provider, is active only while the user is connected to the website and/or mobile app, and is deactivated or deleted after that. 

ETag, or entity tag. A feature of the cache in browsers. It is an opaque identifier assigned by a web server to a specific version of a resource found at a URL. If the resource content at that URL ever changes, a new and different ETag is assigned. Used in this manner, ETags are a form of Device Identifier. ETag tracking may generate unique tracking values even where the consumer blocks HTTP, Flash, and/or HTML5 cookies. 

Why do we use Tracking Technologies?

We may use Tracking Technologies for a variety of purposes, including: 

Strictly Necessary. We may use cookies or other Tracking Technologies that we consider strictly necessary to allow you to use and access our website, mobile app, and Services, including cookies required for system administration, to prevent fraudulent activity, or to improve services.

Functionality Related. We may use cookies or other Tracking Technologies required to offer you enhanced functionality when accessing the Services, including identifying you when you sign in to our Services or keeping track of your specified preferences, including content presentation on our Services. 

Advertising or Targeting Related.  We may use cookies and other Tracking Technologies to deliver content, such as ads relevant to your interests, on our sites or third-party sites.  This includes using technologies to understand the usefulness of the advertisements and content delivered to you. 

We obtain your consent to our information storage or collection Tracking Technologies by providing you with transparent information in our Privacy Policy and allowing you to choose to disable cookies as set forth above. Please note that we are not required to obtain your consent to the information collection identified above that is strictly necessary as this is required for us to provide you with our Services.

How We Protect Your Information

Security of your information

When we collect and process Personal Information and while we retain this information, we will protect it within commercially acceptable means to prevent loss and theft, as well as unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use, or modification. We follow generally accepted industry standards, including the use of appropriate administrative, physical, and technical safeguards, to protect the Personal Information submitted to us. 

Although we will do our best to protect Personal Information, we advise that no electronic transmission or storage method is 100% secure. Therefore, while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect Personal Information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security or confidentiality. If you have any questions about security, you can contact us at solutions@atuvera.co

Your responsibilities concerning Personal Information

You are responsible for securing and maintaining the privacy of your login information and password(s) and verifying that the Personal Information we collect from you is accurate and current.  We are not responsible for the privacy or security of any information on the website or web/mobile app you make publicly available or what others do with the information you share. Please think carefully before deciding what information you share concerning your use of the Services, including Personal Information.

You are solely responsible for maintaining the security of your Device from unauthorized access. 

How Long We Keep Your Personal Information

We keep your Personal Information only for as long as we need to. Following this Privacy Policy, this time may depend on what we use your information for. For example, suppose you have provided us with Personal Information as part of creating an Account with us or purchasing our Services. In that case, we may retain this information as long as your Account exists in our system. If your Personal Information is no longer required for this purpose, we will delete it or make it anonymous by removing all details that identify you. 

However, if necessary, we may retain your Personal Information to comply with a legal, accounting, or reporting obligation or for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research, or statistical purposes.

Our Services are operated in the United States. If you are located outside of the United States, please be aware that information we collect, including Personal Information, will be transferred to, processed, stored, and used in the United States. The data protection laws in the United States may differ from those of the country where you are located, and your Personal Information may be subject to access requests from governments, courts, or law enforcement in the United States. U.S. law may not provide the same degree of protection for Personal Information available in other countries. We take commercially reasonable steps to ensure data is treated securely, including entering into appropriate data transfer agreements. By using our Services or providing us with any information, you consent to transferring, processing, using, and storing your Personal Information in the United States as outlined in this Privacy Policy.
