IF YOU ARE AN END-USER USING THE SUN4HEALTH APP

 Our App is designed to enable you, the End-User, to monitor your environmental exposure for receiving personalised indications for your health & wellness (e.g. avoiding sunburn, getting vitamin D from sunlight). This may also include supporting possible healthcare treatments and participation into research/clinical studies or product campaigns. The service could also include the sharing of your data with an Institution (your connected “Institution”), e.g. healthcare provider or research institute, for providing additional support and guidance to you only if you explicitly decide to do so.

Before you can use our App:

  1. You will need to self-register using your email address and personal contacts on the App or on a dedicated website, and you will then be provided with an anonymous User ID and password;
  2. Alternatively to point 1 above, a professional of your connected Institution (e.g. healthcare professional or researcher) could create an account for you and then share your login details with you, which will include an anonymous User ID and a temporary password (to be then reset by you via the App);
  3. You will be asked to provide different consents. You are under no obligation to provide any of these consents and you can withdraw any of them at any time. But as explained on the registration page, you need at least to provide your consent to your data being shared for the purpose of monitoring your environmental exposure (“exposure records” and “approximate geo-localisation”) and of monitoring/improving the Service (“service quality”) before you can use our App.

If you choose to provide your consent and use our App, then we hold the following information about you:

  1. A record of your consent;
  2. Your login details (your User ID and/or an encrypted version of your Password);
  3. Your email address and personal contacts in case of self-registration to the Service;
  4. Your approximate location and data collected by the sensors of your devices (e.g. GPS) and/or of possible wearable devices connected to the App. This is to ascertain your approximate exposure to environmental factors (e.g. sunlight) and will have a random radius added to enhance your privacy;
  5. Alternatively to point 4 above, in case you provided the related optional consent (“precise geo-localisation”), your precise location and data collected by the sensors of your devices (e.g. GPS) and of possible wearable devices connected to the App. This is to ascertain your exposure to environmental factors (e.g. sunlight) with the highest possible accuracy;
  6. Information you add to the App related to your personal features (e.g. skin type) and treatments;
  7. Environment type (e.g. park, beach), clothes, indoor/outdoor position.

The lawful basis to process your personal data is your explicit consent, in accordance with Art. 6 Par. 1 of the GDPR.

The data processing of the personal data is carried out in compliance with the provisions of the GDPR and other relevant laws.

 

IF YOU ARE A PROFESSIONAL USING THE SUN4HEALTH WEB-PORTAL

 If you are a professional using our web-portal to supervise the environmental exposure of your patients, customers or volunteers involved in a research study (i.e. your connected End-Users), then we will collect your registration information as well as the data about End-Users and End-Users’ environmental exposure, using it in accordance with the services contract in place between us and your Institution (e.g. healthcare provider or research institute).

The only other data we collect from visitors using the Web-Portal is via the cookies we use. We use the following cookies on our Web-Portal:
