Complete Privacy Policy

Introduction

This privacy policy applies to the Appryse medical information and injury notification system for youth-based organizations (the “Service“) operated by Noledgy, LLC (“Appryse“, “us“, or “we“). This privacy policy does not apply to the policies or practices of companies that Appryse does not own or control, or to people that Appryse does not employ or manage. Similarly, Appryse is not liable for the use or misuse of information by users of the Service or any other party. By using, accessing, visiting, or browsing the Service or by any act demonstrating your assent, including clicking any button containing “Agree”, “Submit”, or words of similar import, you accept, without limitation or qualification the Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to be bound by the Privacy Policy, you should exit the Service immediately. By accessing or using the Services, you affirm that you have read this Agreement and understand, agree, and consent to all the terms and conditions contained herein. If you have questions or concerns about how Appryse uses information, you may contact Appryse by email at support@appryse.com.

What This Privacy Policy Covers

This privacy policy covers how Appryse treats personal information that Appryse collects and receives, including information related to your past use of Appryse Services. Personal information or personal data is information about you that is “personally identifiable,” like your name, address, email address, phone number, or health records, that is not otherwise publicly available. This policy does not apply to the policies or practices of companies that Appryse does not own or control, or to people that Appryse does not employ or manage (“unaffiliated third parties”).

Privacy of Medical Information

No medical information or personal data that is entered on the site or obtained from medical providers is released to unaffiliated third parties without the authorization of the individual owner of the medical or personal information. For purposes of this Privacy Policy, the medical and personal information belongs to the individual to which the information pertains; provided however, that if the individual is minor (under age 18), the owner shall be considered the parent or legal guardian of such minor.

Use of Information

Like many other website and web service operators, Appryse receives, gathers, manages, analyzes, and transfers information. Appryse does so in order to operate, maintain and improve its current websites and Services, to develop new services and businesses, and to do business with customers and business partners. For example, Appryse may receive, gather, manage, analyze, and transfer:

Non-personally identifiable information such as browser type, location, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of use of our websites and services
Information that users of our websites and services provide to Appryse
Information concerning the use of our websites and services by users
Information that has been made anonymous and aggregated
Information about users of our website and services that Appryse receives from business partners
Information that users of our websites and services make public

Appryse may receive, gather, manage, analyze, and transfer information in order to correspond with users of its websites and services and to display advertising about goods and services that are of interest to users. Appryse may use information to verify the identity of users, to check user qualifications, and to follow up with transactions initiated on our website(s). Appryse may use contact information to inform users of any changes to our websites and services or to send users additional information about Appryse and its products and services. As a user of Appryse, you authorize and grant us access to your account, including the ability to manage and view medical data in order to maintain your account. Appryse requires this access in order to update your account with medical records, or to make changes to correct information and issues you may report to us. We reserve the right to send you certain communications relating to Appryse’s Services, such as service announcements and administrative messages, which are considered part of your Appryse account, without offering you the opportunity to opt-out of receiving them.

No Transfer of Personal Information

Some users of Appryse websites and Services provide Appryse with personal information when registering to use our websites and Services, or when entering into commercial transactions concerning paid-for products and services. For example, a user may provide Appryse with his or her name and email address in order to register for access to an Appryse web service or may provide Appryse with a physical mailing address when purchasing a product or service. Unless a user provides Appryse with permission at the time of disclosure or at another time, Appryse will not lease, transfer, sell, or share personal information about you with other people or unaffiliated third parties except to provide services or under the following circumstances:

Appryse provides the information to staffers of the organization that you agree to provide the information to, such as the school your child attends or the sports club where your child is enrolled.
In the event of a medical emergency, organization staffers may provide information to emergency personnel and healthcare professionals.
Appryse may share such information in response to a subpoena, court order, or other governmental request, or when Appryse believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the rights or interests of Appryse, its customers, or business partners, or the public at large.
When Appryse believes it necessary to share information in order to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person, violations of Appryse’s terms of service, or as otherwise required by law.
If Appryse is acquired or sells all or a portion of its assets to another entity, organization or third party, or declares bankruptcy, it is likely that information held by Appryse will be transferred or assigned to an entity, organization, or third party. Appryse may assign or transfer such information without your consent. Nothing in the privacy policy is meant to forbid such a transfer.
We may provide your personal information to companies that provide services to help us with our business activities such as hosting provider or customer service provider. These companies are authorized to use your personal information only as necessary to provide these services.

Public Information

Users may choose to use Appryse websites and Services to make information public. For example, a user may provide information to another user or a collection of users. Appryse provides users with Service functions and tools that help control the delivery of information. Nonetheless, Appryse does not, and cannot, control how divulged information is used and further disseminated. Any agreement that you may have with another user of the Service concerning the information you divulge through the Service is between you and that user only. Appryse is not, and shall not, be liable for the actions of others.

Ability to Edit and Delete Your Account Information and Preferences

You can edit your Appryse account information at any time, once an enrollment is accepted. If your personal information changes, you may correct, update, or amend by signing into your Appryse account and making the changes. You may delete your Appryse account by contacting Appryse at support@appryse.com. We will respond to your request to access within 30 days. Appryse will retain your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you Services and also retain personal data we process on behalf of our clients for as long as needed to provide Services to our client as per their data retention needs; provided further, we may retain and use your information as necessary to comply with any law, codes, statutes or other legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.

Information from Third Parties

Appryse may obtain from various parties information about users of Appryse websites, products, and services, and about the use of those websites, products, and services. For example, a user may navigate from our site to the site of a third party vendor and then purchase a product from that vendor. Appryse may obtain information about such user and such purchase from such vendor. Appryse may combine such information with other information and use it in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

Cross-Border Deliveries

The facilities of Appryse and its business partners are located around the world. As a result, information provided to Appryse by a user may be delivered to, and processed in, a country that mandates a lesser level of data protection than does the user’s home country.

Security

Appryse employs security measures designed to prevent the loss, misuse, and alteration of information. Accounts created on Appryse contain security measures that include but are not limited to encryption of all medical data and password protection for access, both stored in Appryse databases, and transmitted on the web. Nonetheless, Appryse makes no assurances about our ability to prevent any such loss, misuse, or alteration. You are responsible for managing the security of your user name and password.

Other Sites and Services

The Service may link to websites and services offered by various unaffiliated third parties who maintain separate privacy policies. Appryse does not control such parties or the terms upon which you transact with such parties. Dealings and transactions with any such party are between you and such party. Appryse suggests that you read and understand the privacy policy of each party with whom you engage.

Children

Children under age 18 may not register with Appryse. We ask that students who are minors be registered under a parent or guardian’s Appryse account. Appryse will not contact children under age 18 about our Services without a parent’s or legal guardian’s permission. Appryse does not ask a child under age 18 for additional personal information.

Access to Information

Users may request access, correction, or deletion of personal information as required by law. Appryse will seek to comply with any bone fide request. Requests may be made to Appryse at the email addresses mentioned above.

Cookies and Web Beacons

A cookie is a string of information that a website stores on a visitor’s device and that the visitor’s browser provides to a website each time the visitor returns. Appryse may use cookies to help Appryse identify and track users, their usage, and their access preferences. A user who does not wish to have cookies placed on his or her device should set his or her browser to refuse cookies before using Appryse websites and services, with the drawback that certain features of Appryse websites and services may not function properly without the aid of cookies. Appryse websites and services may include advertisements and other content delivered by advertisers and other unaffiliated third parties. This Privacy Policy does not cover cookies set by any such parties. A web beacon is a small (often invisible) graphic image or other web programming code embedded in a web page or email. Web beacons or similar technologies may be used by Appryse for a number of purposes, including to count visitors to Appryse websites and services, to monitor how users navigate Appryse Services, and to count how many sent email messages are actually opened. Appryse automatically receives and records information on our server logs from your browser, including your IP address, Appryse cookie information, and the page you request.

Change of Policy

Appryse reserves the right, at our sole discretion, to change, modify, add, or delete portions of this privacy policy at any time, with or without notice to you. If Appryse does make any such revisions, Appryse will indicate at the top of this page the date this privacy policy was last revised. Unless otherwise stated in a written agreement between Appryse and you (for example, a written agreement between Appryse and you governing use of a paid-for version of the Services during a stated period of time), your access or use of the Service on any particular day constitutes your acknowledgement that you’ve reviewed the privacy policy as it exists on that day, so it is your responsibility to review this policy when you use the Service. If you do not agree to this privacy policy, do not use the Service. Appryse will endeavor to notify all registered users of changes to this policy.
