Which information we may collect on our Users?

We may collect two types of data and information from our Users:

  • The first type of information is non-identifiable and anonymous information (“Non-personal Information”). We are not aware of the identity of the User from whom we have collected the Non-personal Information. Non-Personal Information is any unconcealed information which does not enable identification of an individual User, and which is available to us when such User installs and/or uses VAST.Rehab. Non-personal Information which is being gathered consists of technical information, behavioral information and aggregated information, and may contain, among other things, the activity of the User on VAST.Rehab, type of operating system, device type, User's 'click-stream' on VAST.Rehab, keyboard language, screen resolution, time spent on various screens of VAST.Rehab, etc. We also use third-party service providers such as Google Analytics to obtain detailed analytics on the User's behavior on VAST.Rehab.
  • The second type of information is individually identifiable information (“Personal Information”). This information may identify an individual or may be of a private and/or sensitive nature.
    • We gather the Users' IP address (or Mac Address, as applicable) mainly to detect anomalies for enhancing the User's experience and security purposes (i.e., in order to safeguard VAST.Rehab).
    • In addition, Personal Information which is being gathered consists of any personal details provided consciously and voluntarily by the User:
      • Personal Information is collected from the details the Users provide when opening an Account via the registration form available on VAST.Rehab, which include, inter alia, the User's name, email address, password, phone number, gender, date of birth and address. Additional information may be requested in the future.
      • Personal Information is included in the reports and collected when you use VAST.Rehab (i.e., when you move in front of the Kinect sensor, we are aware of your movements).
      • You may sign-up to VAST.Rehab by providing an email and receiving a verification code or link you will be required to use in order to start using your account.
      • Personal Information is collected from the data the Users of VAST.Rehab provide in the contact form which includes, inter alia, full name, e-mail address and phone number. You may optionally provide via the contact form any text you wish to insert into the “message box”. Our representative may collect additional Personal Information from you.
      • Users will have the option to use certain Online Payment Processors which will require you to fill out a billing form wherein you will be required to provide to such Online Payment Processors certain Personal Information (such as, a credit card number and other related billing information). We will not store such information on our servers. We only keep token information such Online Payment Processors provide us with (and where applicable, the last four digits of your credit card number), and such information is strictly secured.
      • Personal Information may be collected from the details the User may provide us while contacting us via email.

For avoidance of doubt, any Non-Personal Information connected or linked to or associated with any Personal Information shall be deemed as Personal Information as long as such connection, linkage or association exists.

How Do We Collect Information on our Users?

There are two main methods that we use:

  • We collect information through your entry, connection, access and/or use of VAST.Rehab. In other words, when you are using VAST.Rehab, we are aware of it and may gather, collect and store the information relating to such usage (such as the Non-personal Information detailed above and your IP address), either independently or through the help of our authorized third-party service providers as detailed below.
  • We collect information which you provide us voluntarily. For example, we collect Personal Information when you register and open an Account or when you contact us.
  • Personal Information we collect indirectly. We indirectly collect Personal Information when someone uses VAST.Rehab to record data about someone other than themselves. A typical scenario would be when a healthcare professional records information about a patient. This information can include names, genders, dates of birth, countries of birth, residential addresses, telephone numbers, email addresses, a person's emergency contacts, health insurance numbers, and patient treatment notes and records. Please note that we do not use such data unless the User allows us to do so.

  • Use it for statistical, analytical and research purposes and for customization, developing and improvement of VAST.Rehab.
