1. Personal Information We May Collect, Use, and Disclose
“Personal Information” means information that identifies, relates to, describes, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with an identifiable individual. Personal Information includes “personal data” as that term is defined in applicable privacy laws. Personal Information does not include “Publicly Available Information”; lawfully obtained, truthful information that is a matter of public concern; information that has been de-identified; or aggregate consumer information. “Publicly Available Information” includes: information that is made available from federal, state, or local government records; information that a business has a reasonable basis to believe is lawfully available to the general public, either through widely distributed media, or by the consumer; and information that is made available by a person to whom the consumer has disclosed the information if the consumer has not restricted the information to a specific audience. “Self-Reported Health Information” refers to Personal Information that relates to your physical or mental health and that you provide directly to us when you complete electronic forms designed for you to self-report your physical or mental health status, upload medical records, or link a wearable or Internet of Things device to our Services. For clarity, Self-Reported Health Information does not include other information such as (i) purchase data; or (ii) information collected via tracking technologies (e.g. cookies, web beacons) on unauthenticated pages on our websites.
We may disclose non-Personal Information, such as aggregated user statistics, to third parties.
In the table below, we set out the categories of Personal Information that we may collect, how we may use such Personal Information, and the categories of third parties to whom we may disclose such Personal Information where such disclosure may be considered a “sale” or “share” of Personal Information.
Please note that because of the overlapping nature of certain of the categories of Personal Information identified above, which may be required by state law, some of the Personal Information we collect may be reasonably classified under multiple categories. Further, we may disclose all Personal Information, for our business purposes, to (i) service providers; (ii) professional advisors (such as lawyers, auditors, bankers and insurers, where necessary in the course of the professional services that they render to us); (iii) authorities and others (such as law enforcement, government authorities and private parties, as we believe in good faith to be necessary or appropriate); and (iv) business transferees (such as in the context of actual or prospective business transactions). For more information on to whom we may disclose your Personal Information, please see the section Disclosure of Personal Information.
2. Sources of Personal Information
We may collect Personal Information about you from the following categories of sources:
- Directly from you through self-reported information, i.e. directly from you through your interactions with us, including without limitation when you use the Site or Services (e.g. creating an account with us, completing electronic forms, uploading medical records, linking a wearable device to our Services) or otherwise contact us via chat, email, phone, or text.
- Through cookies and other tracking technologies, as discussed in more detail in Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies (Section 5 of this Policy).
- Through linked wearable devices connected to our Services (which may include historical data related to your use of the wearable devices).
- From third party healthcare service providers, laboratory service providers, and other providers of medical and medical-adjacent services (our “Lab and Provider Partners”), with your permission and in accordance with applicable law and the context in which you provided the data.
- From other third parties, including our third party service providers, business and marketing partners, affiliates, analytics providers, ad network providers, ad agencies, and advertisers.
- From third parties that you choose (such as lab providers).
- From government agencies or public records.
- From social media and other content platforms.
3. Disclosure of Personal Information
Below is a simple chart designed to help you understand, at a general level, what information we will and will not share with third party tracking technology partners (including third party advertising platforms), followed by more details about our disclosure of your Personal Information:
In full, we may disclose Personal Information that we collect, generate or that you provide, to the following:
- Our affiliates. We may share Personal Information among our affiliates to provide our Services, and for internal administrative purposes.
- Our service providers. We share certain Personal Information with our service providers to provide services on our behalf, such as payment processing, analytics, hosting, marketing, customer and technical support, professional advisors (such as our lawyers, auditors, bankers and insurers) and other services.
- Our payment processing platforms. Payment card information you use to make a purchase on the Service is collected and processed directly by our payment processors such as Stripe. Stripe may use your payment-related data in accordance with its privacy policy, https://stripe.com/privacy.
- Our Lab and Provider Partners. We have engaged with various third-party Lab and Provider Partners in connection with various facets of our Services. Such partnership may involve receiving and sharing Personal Information, including without limitation Consumer Health Data, with your permission in accordance with applicable law and the context in which you provided the data.
- Third party platform advertisers. We will not disclose your Lab Results or Self-Reported Health Information without your express, affirmative consent. We may otherwise share certain information gathered through tracking technologies like cookies and web beacons with third-party platform providers . We also partner with third parties who use cookies to serve interest-based advertising and content on their respective third-party platforms that may be based on your preferences, location, and/or interests. As noted elsewhere, our websites implement measures designed not to collect or share interest-based advertising personal information for individuals accessing our Services who are located in Connecticut, Nevada, or Washington.
- Third parties related to compliance and harm prevention. Under certain circumstances, we may be required to disclose your Personal Information if required to do so by law or in response to valid requests by public authorities, and/or in response to a threat of harm involving an individual’s health and/or safety. This may include law enforcement, government authorities and private parties.
- Third parties related to a change of ownership or other corporate transformation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Privacy Policy or our Consumer Health Data Privacy Policy, if we or our subsidiaries are involved in an actual or potential merger, acquisition, asset sale, or other corporate transformation, your Personal Information – including without limitation your Lab Results and any and all other Self-Reported Health Information – may be transferred to the prospective, acquiring or surviving entity (and their respective representatives).

- Other users and the public. If you choose to make your Personal Information available to others and the public through the Service, such as when you provide comments, reviews, survey responses or share other content, that Personal Information will be available to other users of the Service and the public. This information can be seen, collected and used by others, including being cached, copied, screen captured or stored elsewhere by others (such as search engines) and we are not responsible for any such use of this information.
We do not disclose your Personal Information to third parties in exchange for money.
4. Aggregated, Deidentified, or Anonymized Information
We may create aggregated, de-identified, or anonymized information from Personal Information by removing certain data components (such as your name, email address, or linkable tracking ID) that makes the data identifiable, or through aggregation, obfuscation or other means. For example, we may de-identify any information and data provided and/or generated in connection with your use of our Services (including without limitation your Lab Results and other Personal Information), in compliance with applicable law.
5. Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies
We use cookies and similar tracking technologies and analytics services to track activity on the Site and Services.
a. Cookies
Cookies are files with a small amount of data which may include unique identifier. Cookies are sent to your browser from a website and stored on your device. Other tracking technologies we may use include web beacons to track information and analyze the Services. Beacons (also known as pixel tags, clear GIFs) are small objects that are embedded in an image on a website; they can transmit information directly to Function, or to another person or entity of our designation. For the purposes of this Privacy Policy, cookies, beacons, and other such tracking technologies shall, collectively, be embraced by the term “Cookies.” You can instruct your browser to refuse certain Cookies or to indicate when a Cookie is being sent. However, if you do not accept certain Cookies, you may not be able to use some portions of our Service.
Examples of Cookies we use:
- Strictly Necessary. We may use Cookies that we consider are strictly necessary to allow you to use and access our website, including Cookies required to prevent fraudulent activity, improve security or allow you to make use of shopping cart functionality.
- Performance. We may use Cookies that are useful in order to assess the performance of our website, including as part of our analytic practices or otherwise to improve the content, products or Services offered through our website.
- Functionality. We may use Cookies that are required to offer you enhanced functionality when accessing our website, including identifying you when you sign in to our website or keeping track of your specified preferences, including in terms of the presentation of content on our website.
- Advertising. We may use Cookies to deliver content, including ads, relevant to your interests on our website and third party sites based on how you interact with advertisements or content.
**Although Function generally uses Cookies as described above, our websites implement measures designed to limit the types of Cookies (excluding Strictly Necessary Cookies) for individuals accessing our Services who are located in Connecticut, Nevada, or Washington.
b. Analytics
We may use Google Analytics or other service providers for analytics services. These analytics services may use Cookies and other tracking technologies to help us analyze how users use the Services. Information generated by these services (e.g., your IP address and other usage information) may be transmitted to and stored by Google Analytics and other service providers on servers in the U.S. (or elsewhere) and these service providers may use this information for purposes such as evaluating your use of the Service, compiling statistic reports on the Service’s activity, and providing other services relating to Service activity and other Internet usage. You may exercise choices regarding the use of Cookies from Google Analytics by going to https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout or downloading the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
c. Third-Party Ad Networks.
Certain companies may participate in the Digital Advertising Alliance ("DAA") AdChoices Program and may display an Advertising Option Icon for Interest-based Ads that links to an opt-out tool which allows you to exercise certain choices regarding targeting. You can learn more about the DAA AdChoices Program at http://www.youradchoices.com/ and its opt-out program for mobile apps at http://www.aboutads.info/appchoices.
In addition, certain advertising networks and exchanges may participate in the Network Advertising Initiative (“NAI”). NAI has developed a tool that allows consumers to opt out of certain Interest-based Ads delivered by NAI members' ad networks. To learn more about opting out of such targeted advertising or to use the NAI tool, see http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/. Please be aware that, even if you are able to opt out of certain kinds of Interest-based Ads, you will continue to receive non-targeted ads. Opting out of one or more NAI or DAA members only means that those selected members should no longer under the DAA / NAI rules deliver certain targeted ads to you. This will affect this and other services, but does not mean you will no longer receive any targeted content and/or ads (e.g., from other ad networks). If your browsers are configured to reject Cookies when you visit this opt-out page, or you subsequently erase your Cookies, use a different device or web browser(s), or use a non-browser-based method of access (e.g., mobile app), your NAI / DAA browser-based opt-out may not, or may no longer, be effective. Mobile device opt-outs will not affect browser-based Interest-based Ads even on the same device, and you must opt-out separately for each device. We are not responsible for the effectiveness of, or compliance with, any third-parties’ opt-out options or programs or the accuracy of their statements regarding their programs.
6. Data Security
The security of your data is important to us but remember that no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure. Function uses certain safeguards designed to protect the security and integrity of your Personal Information. If you complete a purchase with us, your financial information (as defined in Personal Information We May Collect, Use, and Disclose) will be processed by our payment processor.
7. Data Retention
We will retain your Personal Information for as long as is necessary to provide you with Services, to comply with our legal obligations (for example, if we are required to retain your data to comply with applicable laws), resolve disputes, and enforce our legal agreements and policies. We will also retain certain Personal Information for internal analysis purposes. This information is generally retained for a shorter period but may be retained for longer periods of time when this data, for example, is used to strengthen the security or to improve the functionality of our Services, or we are legally obligated to retain this data for longer time periods. Our determination of precise retention periods will be based on (i) the length of time we have an ongoing relationship with you; (ii) whether there is a legal obligation to which we are subject; and (iii) whether retention is advisable in light of our legal position, including regard to applicable statutes of limitations, litigation or regulatory investigations.
8. International Transfers of Your Personal Information
Your information, including Personal Information, may be transferred to – and maintained on – information systems located outside of your state, province, country or other governmental jurisdiction where the data protection laws may differ from those of your jurisdiction. If you are located outside of the United States and choose to provide information to us, please note that we transfer the data, including Personal Information, to the United States and process it there.
9. Children’s Privacy
Function’s Services are not intended for children under the age of eighteen (18) years and we do not knowingly collect Personal Information from such persons. If you become aware that a child has provided us with Personal Information, please contact us at legal@functionhealth.com, with the subject line “Minor Access”. If we become aware that we have collected Personal Information from children without verification of parental consent, we take steps to remove that information from our information systems.
10. Your Privacy Rights
You may have certain rights and choices regarding our collection, use, and disclosure of your Personal Information based on applicable laws (such as due to your location or place of residency).
a. Opting out of promotional electronic communications from us. We may use your Personal Information to send you updates regarding existing products and Services, information about new products and Services, upcoming events, surveys, and other announcements and inquiries. Please note that Function may send you marketing and advertising messages on behalf of a third party (including subject to a paid arrangement); provided, under such a circumstance, Function will not disclose your Personal Information to said third party. If you no longer wish to receive promotional email communications from us, you may opt out via the unsubscribe link included in such emails or communicate your opt-out request using the information below. We will comply with your request as soon as reasonably practicable. Please note that if you opt out of receiving promotional emails from us, we may still send you administrative messages that are required in order to provide you with the Service or for other reasons disclosed in this Policy.
b. Deleting your content or closing your account. You may be able to delete certain content through your account. If you wish to request to close your account, please contact us.
c. Additional rights available in certain states and jurisdictions. Certain U.S. jurisdictions provide residents with certain rights with respect to their Personal Information or “personal data” as defined under applicable law. These rights are subject to the specific laws of that jurisdiction as applicable to Function and that certain other rights or obligations might apply. Please review our California Privacy Notice; Nevada Privacy Notice; Privacy Notice for Residents of Other US States; and Consumer Health Data Privacy Policy for more information on rights and terms potentially applicable to you.
d. Mobile location data. You can disable our access to your device’s precise geolocation in your mobile device settings.
e. Exercising your privacy rights. Please use the following information to exercise your rights as applicable. Please note that any request you submit to us is subject to an identification and residency verification process as permitted under applicable law, as well as certain other procedural requirements that may be noted in the sections below. Additionally, all requests are subject to certain exceptions under applicable law, which may vary. If you are a visually-impaired customer, a customer who has another disability or a customer who seeks support in other language, you may access your privacy rights by emailing us at legal@functionhealth.com.
We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable consumer request unless its excessive, repetitive, manifestly unfounded, or in accordance with applicable law. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.
Depending on applicable law, you may be limited in how many verifiable or authenticated consumer request you make within a twelve (12) month period. If we have inadvertently collected information on your minor child, you may exercise the above rights on behalf of your minor child. Additionally, in some jurisdictions, you may designate an authorized agent to submit a request on your behalf, and if so, we may require proof of the agent’s authorization by you and/or verification of the agent’s own identity. Generally, a rights request must include:
- Sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected Personal Information or an authorized representative, which must include, at a minimum, your first and last name and email address.
- Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to the request.
We cannot respond to your request or provide you with Personal Information if we cannot verify or authenticate your identity or authority to make the request and confirm that the Personal Information relates to you. We will only use Personal Information provided in a verifiable or authenticated consumer request to verify your (or your authorized agent’s as applicable) identity or authority to make the request.
You are not required to create an account with us to submit a verifiable or authenticated consumer request. However, we do consider requests made through your password protected account sufficiently verified when the request relates to Personal Information associated with that specific account. If you have an account with us, we will deliver our written response to that account. If you do not have an account with us, we will deliver our written response by mail or electronically, at your option.
We will confirm receipt of your request within ten (10) business days. If you do not receive confirmation within the 10-day timeframe, please contact legal@functionhealth.com. Except where otherwise noted, we will respond to your request within forty-five (45) days after receipt and we reserve the right to extend the response time by an additional forty-five (45) days when reasonably necessary and provided consumer notification of the extension is made within the first forty-five (45) days. As described below, in some jurisdictions, an authorized agent may submit a request to exercise your rights on your behalf.
How to submit a request. To exercise any of the rights described in this Privacy Policy, please send your request(s) using one of the following methods:
- Emailing us at legal@functionhealth.com
- Visiting the contact page at our Site at https://www.functionhealth.com/contact
