Curv Health Privacy Policy

Curv Labs Inc. (“Curv,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) takes the privacy of personal information very seriously. This Privacy Policy describes the manner in which we collect, use, disclose and otherwise treat personal information.This Privacy Policy applies to personal information that we collect and process in the course of providing our platform (the “Platform”), which includes our mobile applications (collectively the “App”) and a website portal located at www.curvhealth.com (the “Website”).

About our Platform

Our Platform provides tools that allow personal trainers, physiotherapists, athletic therapists and other providers (“Providers”) to create exercise, therapy and rehabilitation programs (“Programs”) for clients (“Clients”), to share Programs with Clients, to monitor Clients’ progress through and adherence to the Programs, to receive video assessments of Client’s movements, and to provide instructions, feedback, corrections and guidance to Clients.  Our Platform also allows Clients to view the Programs assigned to them by Providers, to generate videos and assessments of their exercises and to share the videos and assessments with Providers, and to ask questions or otherwise communicate with their Provider.

Collection and Use of Personal Information

Account creation

In order to access the Platform, you are required to create an account with us. You must be at least 13 years of age to create an account. We collect your email address, password, full name, mobile phone number, and date of birth for the purposes of administering your account and verifying your age. Additional information may be requested within your profile to allow us to better customize the experience for you, but this information will be optional. We may use this information to administer your account and personalize your experience on the Platform.

Video assessments and exercises

Our App allows Clients to log their exercises.  It also allows Clients and Providers to use their mobile devices to take videos of exercises and movements to measure movement related to performance and technique and to generate metrics including angles, distances, ratios and asymmetries throughout the body during the movements.  Our App will request permission to access the video and audio features on the mobile device for these purposes. Client’s logged exercises and video assessments will be shared with the Client’s Providers, unless the Client has revoked this access.  A Provider may also generate video assessments of their Clients from the Provider’s device and can share the assessments with the Client.  We use video content and assessment results only to provide Clients and Providers with the features of the Platform.  However, we may generate aggregate and anonymous data from video assessments and other data we collect through the Platform and may use and share the aggregate and anonymous data for any lawful purpose.

Payment Information

While certain features on the Platform are free, Providers are required to pay a monthly membership fee for access to certain features of the Platform. Providers are also required to pay fees based on specific, agreed-upon usage of the Platform with Clients. We collect your payment-card details (including payment card number, security code, expiration date, cardholder name and billing address) for the purposes of processing your membership payments.

Certifications

We may collect certifications from Providers who use our Platform for the purposes of verifying their credentials. This will include a certificate for personal trainers, diplomas/degrees for athletic therapists and physiotherapists or any other profession as we deem necessary.

Inquiries

If you contact us with an inquiry, you may be asked for information that identifies you, such as your name, address and a telephone number, along with additional information we need to help us promptly answer your inquiry.  We may retain this information to assist you in the future and to improve our customer service and service offerings.
