- Information about your current or past job history;
- Inferences about you that we draw from your personal information, such as your preferences;
- Any other information you share on the App or give the App permission to access that could be used to identify you.

Other information we might collect about you includes but is not limited to:

This other information may or may not identify you. Your personal information does not include any deidentified information we collect.
You can choose not to provide information to us, but certain personal information and other information about you is required in order for you to use the App.
How the App accesses other applications and data on your device
With your permission, the App may request access to other data or applications on your device, such as your device’s camera, photo library, contacts, location services, defaults (such as Siri and Search, Notifications, Background App Refresh, Cellular Data, Storage), phone dialing (for example, to call the Nurse Hotline) or text messaging application (such as, your “Short Message Service” or “SMS”). You can take back your permission by accessing the Pyx Health App in your device’s settings.
For more instructions on how to access these permissions in your device’s settings go to:
- iPhone: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203033
- Android: https://support.google.com/googleplay/answer/6270602?hl=en
Text messages and push notifications
If you have chosen to provide the App with information about your doctor’s appointments, medications, prescription refills, and other matters related to your care, you may receive push notifications (such as text messages) reminding you of these events or asking you to open your App for details about these events. We may also notify you of important information and events that may affect your health or care, such as a natural emergency disaster in your area. You may receive these notifications through your device’s SMS (other text messaging application) and notification features. These communications may not be secure (not encrypted). There are risks associated with unsecure communications that you should consider. These risks include (without limitation) that an unauthorized person may get access to and read these communications. By using the App you are agreeing to accept these risks and consent to receive unsecure communications.
If you wish to opt-out from receiving push notifications, you may turn them off in your device’s settings. You may also opt-out by replying “STOP” in response to a text message. This opt-out process does not apply to live phone calls or emails, which may continue in case we need to reach you.
How Pyx Health uses and stores your information
We use your personal information and other information we collect on the App to provide the services to you and to help connect you with community services and support. We also use this information for general purposes, such as to assist you with using the App; to communicate with you through the App, your device’s SMS or other means of communication; to customize your experience with the App; to manage and improve the quality of the App and services that we provide and for other internal business purposes; to perform data analytics and support health care operations; to enforce our HiFriend Terms of Use; and for any other purpose described to you through the App or that you consent to.
We may store your personal information for as long as we need it to provide the services to you and to comply with our legal and contractual obligations (for example, if we are required to retain your data to comply with laws that apply to us), resolve disputes, and enforce our legal agreements and policies. We may store your personal information and other information indefinitely.
With whom Pyx Health shares your information
We may share your personal information and other information with:
- Anyone authorized by you to have access to your personal information and other information;
- Your care managers or care coordinators;
- Your health care providers, your health plan, and people who work with them;
- People who help us provide the App and related services (for example, IT support services), but only as necessary to support our ability to provide the App services, and subject to security and privacy restrictions; and
- Our affiliates and business partners for legally permissible purposes.
We may share this information to fulfill the purpose for which you provided it and for purposes of managing your care and normal health care business operations. We will not sell your personal information to advertisers or other third parties without your consent.
We may also share your personal information and other information in response to subpoenas, court orders, requests from law enforcement, or other legal process; to establish or exercise our legal rights; to defend against legal claims; to a buyer or other successor of Pyx Health in the event of a merger, divestiture, restructuring, reorganization, change of control, dissolution, or other sale or transfer of some or all of Pyx Health’s assets, including as part of a bankruptcy, liquidation, or similar proceeding; or as otherwise required or permitted by applicable law.
Deidentified data is not your personal information. Deidentified data is information that does not contain any personal information about you or your family members or friends and for which there is not a reasonable basis to believe that it can be used to identify you. We reserve the right to convert, or permit others to convert, your personal information into deidentified data. Where permissible by the laws and contracts that apply to us, we may share or sell this deidentified data to third parties.
Website browsers and do not track (DNT) signals
Some website browsers have a “do not track” (DNT) feature that lets you tell other websites that you do not want to have your online activities tracked. No uniform technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been finalized. We do not currently respond to a browser’s DNT signal. We are not aware of, and do not knowingly allow, such third parties to track your activity over time on the App. However, we may share information about your App usage with your health plan or health care providers, or our service providers, contractors, affiliates, and business partners, as described in this Privacy Policy.
Security of your personal information
Pyx Health takes reasonable steps to keep your personal information secure and to protect against the loss, misuse, or alteration of your personal information on the App. Although Pyx Health has these security measures on the App in place, it cannot guarantee your privacy.
Please be aware that email and text messaging on your device’s SMS (or other text messaging applications) are not secure (not encrypted) methods of communication. There is the risk that email messages and text messaging on your device’s SMS (or other text messaging applications) could be intercepted or read by other people. If you email us, we will respond to you by email and that email communication will not be secure (not encrypted). Please do not use e-mail to communicate with us about confidential matters. By using the App you are agreeing to accept these risks and consent to receive unsecure communications.
Using the App outside of the United States
Pyx Health intends the App to be used by residents of the United States. This App is not intended for use by individuals who are not located in the United States. If you are visiting our website or using the App from outside the United States, please be aware that your personal information and other information will be transferred to, stored, and processed in the United States, where our servers are located and our central database is operated. The data protection and other laws of the United States might not be as comprehensive as those in your country. By using our website or App, you understand that your personal information and other information may be transferred to our facilities in the United States and those third parties with whom we share it as described in this Privacy Policy.
Third party links
The App may contain links to websites that are owned or operated by third parties (for example, 211.org). If you click on a third party link, you will go to that third party website. We do not have control over third party websites and those websites do not operate under this Privacy Policy. You should review the privacy policies of third party websites before using them.
Children’s privacy
Our App is not directed at and not intended to be used by any children under the age of 13. You must not use the App if you are a child under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect or solicit any information from children under the age of 13 or knowingly allow such children to use the App. A parent or guardian is required to provide consent for Pyx Health to collect, use, or share personal information from a child under the age of 13.
Children under the age of 18 may request that any information posted to the App be removed by contacting us at: [email protected]. Removing information posted to the App does not guarantee complete or comprehensive removal of the content or information posted.
