BewellConnect aims to be a major player in the connected healthcare sector. We place great importance on transparency, honesty and security, which are essential to building a relationship of trust. This means that protecting your personal data, especially in the health sector, is essential to us. The aim of this document is to inform you about the data protection policy and how we apply it.

Basic principles

The new General Data Protection Regulation 2016/679 came into force on 25 May 2018. In applying it, we only use your personal data with your consent and make every effort to ensure its security. BewellConnect controls the personal data that you communicate to us and is responsible for your personal data in accordance with French law no. 78-17 of 6 January 1978 relating to data protection.

This Privacy Policy (‘Privacy policy’) of BewellConnect describes how we (BewellConnect, together with its affiliates around the world) collect and use information about each of our visitors and customers, in relation to how they access and use BewellConnect’s websites (including the ‘Website’ and each of its sub-domains), Mobile applications (‘Mobile Apps’ and related services (jointly: the ‘Services’).

  • “Service(s)”:
    all the services, products accessible online or via customer service or Mobile Apps, etc., whether paid for or not
  • “Mobile App(s)”:
    refers to any downloaded software, app, widget or plug-in on a mobile device (smartphone, tablet, laptop, as well as any device that has an operating system that allows you to download, install, operate, and update these apps).
  • ‘Us’ and ‘Our’
    refers to any company owned or operated, directly or indirectly, by any company in which BewellConnect has an interest and that can collect or process your personal data and cookies, as well as their respective service providers located in France or abroad.
  • “You’ and ‘Your’
    refers to any user of our products and/or Services, whether they are paid or free.

The purpose of this Privacy Policy is to provide you with a clear explanation of when, why, and how we collect and use your personal information, as well as an explanation of your rights in relation to these data.

​We encourage you to read this Privacy Policy carefully and to make sure you fully understand our practices regarding your personal information before accessing or using any of our Services.  If you read and fully understand this Privacy Policy but are opposed to our practices, you must immediately leave this website, app or service and avoid or discontinue any use of any of our Services.  If you have any questions or concerns about this policy, contact us using the contact form.

Our commitment to protecting privacy

We are committed to respecting the following principles :

  • You have no obligation to provide us with the personal data we request from you. However, some of this data may be required to access certain Services and/or be necessary for the operation of Mobile Apps and our connected health objects. For example, if you decide not to provide us with this data, you may not have access to some of these Mobile Services or Apps;
  • We only collect and process your data for the purposes described in this Policy or for any specific purposes that we have notified you of and/or to which you have consented;
  • We adopt the principle of proportionality and minimisation of personal data collection: in other words, we only collect the personal data necessary for the processing and uses envisaged, and do not collect data superfluously;
  • If any personal data that we possess is no longer required for the processing of personal data that we undertake and there is no legal obligation requiring us to keep it, we will do everything in our power to remove, destroy or anonymize it.
Applying the data protection policy:

This Privacy Policy applies to all online websites, apps, online games/draws and any other online initiative owned by BewellConnect that collects personal data. This Policy does not therefore apply to third party websites, including those that may be mentioned on any of our Materials available via an internet link.

We collect two types of information about our visitors:

  1. Information that is of a personal nature since it contains information that identifies you, directly or indirectly using reasonable means and that may be private or sensitive (“Personal Information”).

When you use BewellConnect’s solutions, certain personal data essential to the operation of our products and the provision of services is collected. This concerns measurements taken using medical equipment or entered by the user:

  • Weight,
  • Body mass (fat, muscle),
  • Temperature,
  • Blood pressure,
  • Heart rate,
  • SpO2 (oxygenation rate),
  • ECG trace and raw data,

Other personal information we collect is primarily relational, accounting information that is collected exclusively from our website that can be accessed from your computer or the BewellConnect app

Additionally, when you use our Materials, we may collect and process some or all of the following data:

  • The data you provide by filling out forms when subscribing to online services (e.g., click to chat on our website) or by sending us correspondence (e.g., online contact form);
  • First and last name;
  • Email address;
  • Gender;
  • Phone number;
  • Address;
  • Contact type: Professional or individual
  • Age/date of birth;
  • Any special request that you might send us (mainly for archival purposes);
  • We may ask you to answer questionnaires that we will use for scientific and statistical purposes.

This personal data gives us information about you and enables us to respond to your requests. Data is also collected when you browse our websites via cookies (a text file deposited on the user’s computer when visiting our site) in particular to improve the user experience that we offer you on our interfaces.

When you fill in a contact form, the collection of your personal data allows us to answer the questions received and to facilitate your identification. When you fill out a newsletter registration form, we collect your personal data so that we can inform you about our news, our business operations and share content and health tips with you.

  1. Unidentified and unidentifiable information about a visitor or a user who has not identified themselves, that may be available to us or automatically collected by their use of the Services (‘Impersonal Information’). This Impersonal Information does not allow us to identify the visitor or user from whom it was collected. The impersonal information that we collect is primarily of a technical nature along with aggregated usage data, such as browsing activity and clickstreams on the Services, session statistics, and scrolling, as well as information preventing any identification relating to the device, operating system, browser, screen resolution, language and keyboard settings, ISPs, landing/exit pages, timestamps, etc., used by the Visitor or User.
Purposes: for what purposes do we collect your personal data?

We collect your personal data to provide you with the best online experience and a high-quality service. In particular, we may collect, hold and use your personal data for the following purposes:

  1. to process and respond to your inquiries and to contact you to respond to your questions and/or requests;
  2. to develop and improve our products, services, communication methods and the functionality of our websites, apps, services;
  3. to provide you with information and to manage your registration and/or subscription to our newsletter service or any other communications service;

  8. to provide personalised products and tailored communications, or to recommend products based on your consumer needs.

We may also need your personal data to fulfil legal obligations or as part of the contractual relationship with you.

We request your consent to process your personal data. If you have given your consent for the processing of your personal data, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time.

Sharing your personal data

When we share your personal data with our affiliates, we make sure that we do so only with organisations that have significant data and data storage security systems in place that respect privacy laws under conditions equivalent to those we comply with.
Your personal data will not be shared, sold, rented or disclosed for purposes other than those described in the Policy. We may, however, transmit your data for purposes other than those provided for in the Policy, in cases where their disclosure is required by law and governmental authorities.

In this case, we ask these companies to protect your data in accordance with this Policy. You may modify or revoke your agreement at any time, within a reasonable time, subject to the legal or contractual restrictions in this regard.

Data retention

Your personal data will only be stored for the time necessary to carry out our activities and services for the purposes of each processing action and under the terms of the Regulations.

When you contact BewellConnect, we keep a record of you in a register for as long as we need to provide our services.
