Terms of Service: Persona Beacon
Effective Date: 01 August 2026
Introduction
Welcome to Persona Beacon, a digital health application designed to facilitate remote health monitoring by collecting device data from patients and transmitting it securely to their healthcare providers. By using our app, you agree to comply with and be bound by the following terms and conditions.
Acceptance of Terms
Use of Persona Beacon constitutes your acceptance of these terms.
- Data Collection: We collect device data including, but not limited to, health and fitness data, device identifiers, and usage data.
- Use of Data: The data collected is used to provide health monitoring services, to share information with your healthcare provider to support your care, and to improve app functionality. We may also create and share de-identified, anonymised, or aggregated data as described in the Data Sharing and Disclosure section below and in our Privacy Policy.
- Data Protection: We implement robust security measures to protect your data against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. We are compliant with applicable data protection laws such as HIPAA, the GDPR.
- Consent: By using Persona Beacon, you consent to the collection, use, and sharing of your device data as described in our Privacy Policy. Any sale or licensing of de-identified data is handled separately with your consent, as described below.
Consent to Use of Data
By using Persona Beacon, you provide consent for the collection, processing, and sharing of your personal and health-related data as necessary for the provision of our services. You have the right to withdraw this consent at any time, subject to legal or contractual restrictions.
Separately, you also provide consent to allow de-identified, anonymised, and aggregated copies of your data to be sold or licensed to third parties, as described in the Data Sharing and Disclosure section. You have the right to withdraw this consent at any time, subject to legal or contractual restrictions.
Data Protection Measures
We employ robust technical and organizational measures to ensure the security of your data against unauthorized access, alteration, and destruction. Our security practices are designed to provide a level of security appropriate to the risk of processing your personal information.
Data Sharing and Disclosure
We share data that identifies you with your healthcare provider to facilitate your care and treatment. We do not sell, rent, or trade personal information that identifies you.
We may create de-identified, anonymised, or aggregated datasets from the data we collect — information from which identifiers have been removed or altered so that it no longer identifies, and cannot reasonably be used to re-identify, any individual. We de-identify such data to a standard designed to meet or exceed the requirements of the data protection and health-information laws applicable in the jurisdictions in which we operate. The specific standards are set out in our Privacy Policy.
We may use, share, license, or sell this de-identified, anonymised, or aggregated data to third parties, including for research, population-health, analytics, and commercial purposes. We do not attempt to re-identify this data, and we contractually prohibit recipients from attempting to re-identify it or to combine it with other data to identify any individual.
International Data Transfers
For users in your jurisdiction, we take appropriate steps to ensure that transfers of personal information comply with applicable law and are carefully managed to protect your privacy rights and interests. Adequate protection is ensured through recognised legal mechanisms such as standard contractual clauses and other lawful transfer mechanisms.
Changes to Privacy Practices
We reserve the right to update our privacy practices and this section of our ToS. We will provide notice of any significant changes through the app or via email, and, where the change materially affects how your data is used or shared, we will obtain your consent where required by law before it applies to you.
User Responsibilities
- Accurate Information: You agree to provide accurate and current information about your health and device use as required by the app.
- Compliance with Laws: You are responsible for complying with all local laws and regulations regarding health data and privacy.
- Security: You must safeguard your account information and are responsible for any activity under your account.
Intellectual Property Rights
All content and functionality on the app, including text, graphics, logos, icons, and software, is the exclusive property of Persona Informatics or its licensors and is protected by international copyright laws.
Limitation of Liability
Persona Informatics will not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages arising out of your use of, or inability to use, Persona Informatics, including but not limited to performance issues, errors, omissions, interruptions, deletion of files, or email errors.
Changes to Terms
Persona Informatics reserves the right to modify these terms. For non-material changes, your continued use of the app following the change signifies your acceptance of the updated terms. For material changes — including changes to how your data may be shared or sold — we will provide advance notice and, where required by law, obtain your consent before the change applies to you. Continued use alone will not be treated as consent to a material change in data handling.
Governing Law
These terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without giving effect to any principles of conflicts of law.
