Please see our Online Privacy Policy Statement for information regarding our data collection through our website and social media activities.

To the extent that the PicoCare mobile applications and related Services are used to collect or transmit information about individuals other than Authorized Users, for example clients or patients of a Customer, Luvvi does so solely as a processor acting on behalf of the Customer, and all collection and transmission is governed by the Customer’s privacy policy.

6. Information Disclosure

We will not disclose an Authorized User’s information to third parties without giving the Authorized User and the Customer prior notice, except as stated in this Privacy Notice.

a. Customer

Unless otherwise agreed to between Customer and Luvvi, all data or information collected or stored by the PicoCare App or communicated using the PicoCare App belongs to the Customer. Thus, we may, upon a Customer’s request, provide the Customer with access to all data or information created, received, sent, stored or otherwise processed by its Authorized Users who have installed the PicoCare App on their Device or our reseller partners who support Customers on our behalf. All such third parties are only permitted to use the information to support Luvvi and its Customer’s business activities and may not use, sell, or otherwise share it for marketing or purposes other than Luvvi’s.

b. Employees and Service Providers

We have employees in the Switzerland who may have access to personal information in order to provide a product or service that a visitor requested. We also may share personal information with third parties who provide services to us (e.g., support helpdesk) or who work on our behalf to provide a product or service that a visitor requested. In those circumstances, we disclose the personal information that is necessary for such third parties to perform those services. Service providers process your personal information for the specific purpose of providing their services to us (and in accordance with our instructions).
Below is a list of categories of service providers that we may use to perform these functions (subject to change):

Analytics services

• Customer support services
• Billing services and payment gateway providers
• Hosting and content delivery network services
• Communication tools
• Professional service providers, such as auditors, lawyers, consultants, accountants and insurers

c. Legal Requests and Preventing Harm

We may disclose information about, or associated with, an Authorized User to a third party in response to a facially valid request from a government agency or a private litigant in the form of a subpoena, court order or search warrant, or where we believe, in good faith, that it is necessary to do so for the purposes of a civil action, criminal investigation, regulatory compliance proceeding, or other legal matter. We may also disclose information to the extent we believe, in our sole discretion, that disclosure is necessary to prevent harm or otherwise protect Luvvi and its employees, Customer and its employees, Authorized Users, or third parties.

d. Affiliates

We may share visitors or registered users’ information with our parent company, subsidiaries, or other companies under common control with us; in this case we will require such entities to honor this Privacy Notice. If you would like us to stop providing your information to our affiliates, you may opt-out of this sharing by contacting us using the methods provided in the “Contact Us” section.

e. Change of Control and Purchases

As we continue to grow, we may purchase websites, applications, subsidiaries, or other businesses or business units. Alternatively, we may sell businesses or business units, merge with other entities, obtain financing, and/or sell assets or stock, in some cases, as part of a reorganization or liquidation in bankruptcy. In order to evaluate and/or as part of these transactions, we may transfer your personal information to a successor entity upon a merger, consolidation, or other corporate reorganization in which Luvvi participates, to investors and/or to a purchaser or acquirer of all or a portion of Luvvi’s assets, bankruptcy included.
Other than to the extent ordered by a bankruptcy or other court, the use and disclosure of all transferred visitor information will be subject to this Privacy Notice. However, any information that you submit or that is collected after this type of bankruptcy transfer may be subject to a new privacy policy adopted by the successor entity.

f. Aggregated Information

We may share personal information with third parties after it has been aggregated or otherwise deidentified sufficiently that individuals are no longer identifiable and cannot be reidentified using reasonable efforts.

7. Links to Third-Party Applications

The PicoCare App may, at the Customer’s discretion, allow Authorized Users to directly access applications operated by third parties that have been selected and approved by the Customer. We are not responsible for, and this Privacy Notice does not address, any information that these Customer-selected third-party applications may collect. Authorized Users and Customers should review the privacy policies of these third parties to understand how they may use information.

8. General Retention Periods

We use the following criteria to determine our retention periods: the amount, nature and sensitivity of your information, the reasons for which we collect and process your personal data, the length of time we have an ongoing relationship with you and provide you with access to the PicoCare App and services, and applicable legal requirements. We will retain personal information we collect from you where we have an ongoing legitimate business need to do so (for example, to comply with applicable legal, tax or accounting requirements). Additionally, we cannot delete information when it is needed for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims (also known as a “litigation hold”). In this case, the information must be retained as long as needed for exercising respective potential legal claims.
When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymize it or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.

9. Anonymization

In some instances, we may choose to anonymize your personal data instead of deleting it, for statistical use, for instance. When we choose to anonymize, we make sure that there is no way that the personal data can be linked back to you or any specific user.

10. Account Deactivation

Customers have the ability to deactivate, suspend or terminate an Authorized User’s Luvvi account. For assistance, Customers should contact us as set forth in their Service Agreement or in the “Contact Us” section below, and we will provide any required assistance.
Any Authorized User who wishes to deactivate or terminate his/her account or remove specific data in his/her account should first contact the Customer. We will follow written instructions sent by or on behalf of the Customer unless they conflict with the terms of the “General Retention Periods” section.

11. Rights of Authorized Users to Control Their Information

Any Authorized User may at any time, in consultation and with the approval of the Customer, delete or remove the PicoCare App from the Authorized User’s Device by following the Device manufacturer’s instructions.
When an Authorized User uses the PicoCare App on the Authorized User’s Device, a copy of certain information collected, generated, or stored by the PicoCare App on that Device may be stored on Luvvi’s servers to allow the Authorized Users to access the same information on multiple devices. When the PicoCare App is removed from an Authorized User’s Device, all information previously collected, generated or stored by the PicoCare App, while no longer accessible from the Device, will remain stored on the Luvvi servers in accordance with the General Retention Periods section above.
Unless Luvvi is required by applicable law or court order to take a specific action (e.g., preservation, duplication, storage, disposal) with respect to such data or information stored on its servers, Luvvi will follow the Customer’s written instructions with respect to the preservation or disposal of such data or information, or if there are not such instructions, will retain such information in accordance with Luvvi’s applicable data retention policy.

12. Information Security

We take reasonable measures, including the imposition of administrative, technical, and physical controls, to protect any personal information that we may collect, store, share, or transmit through the PicoCare App against loss, misuse, and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration and destruction.
Authorized Users should not disclose their user ID or password required to access the PicoCare App to any third party. Each Authorized User will be responsible for any use of the PicoCare App under their user ID and password unless they have notified Luvvi, in addition to notifying Customer, in writing of the loss or compromise of such information and subsequently requested that their password be reset (and Luvvi has acknowledged receipt of the notice). To provide Luvvi with notice, see the “How to Contact Us” section.
