HealthTracker Limited ('we') are committed to protecting and respecting your privacy. We are registered with the UK Information Commissioner’s Office as a Data Controller (Reg No. Z2141968), and have in place a comprehensive Company data protection policy and code of practice.
This Privacy Policy (together with our Terms and any other documents referred to on it) sets out the basis on which any personal data we collect from you, or that you provide to us, will be processed by us. Please read the following carefully to understand our views and practices regarding your personal data and how we will treat it.
We may collect and process the following data about you:
We may collect information about your computer, including where available your IP address, operating system and browser type, for system administration, to tailor your experience of the Website, provide you with customer support and to report aggregate information internally and to advertisers.
For the same reason, we may obtain information about your general internet usage by using a cookie file which is stored on the hard drive of your computer. Cookies contain information that is transferred to your computer's hard drive. They help us to give you a smooth user experience, improve the Website and to deliver a better and more personalized service. They enable us:
You may refuse to accept cookies by changing the settings on your browser to prevent cookies from being set. However, if you select this setting you may be unable to access certain parts of the Website and/or HealthTracker Service. Unless you have adjusted your browser setting so that it will refuse cookies, our system will issue cookies when you log on to the Website.
Please note that when a third party advertises on our site they too may also use cookies. Unfortunately we have no control over these cookies.
All information you provide to us is stored on our secure servers located in the UK. All passwords are stored in encrypted form and all logged-in traffic is transmitted securely via SSL by default.
We only store your data on secure servers within the European Economic Area ('EEA') or with partners outside the EEA who are certified as complying with the US-EU Safe Harbor Framework. However, it may be possible that your data is transferred to, and stored at, a destination outside the EEA by or to staff who work for one of our suppliers. Such staff may be engaged in, among other things the provision of support services. By submitting your personal data, you agree to this transfer, storing or processing.
Unfortunately, despite these measures, the transmission of information via the internet is never completely secure. Although we will do our best to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee the security of your data transmitted to the Website, and any transmission is at your own risk. Once we have received your information, we will use strict procedures to try to prevent unauthorised access in accordance with our Company data protection policy and code of practice, and responsibilities as a registered Data Controller.
We use information held about you in the following ways:
We do not disclose information about identifiable individuals to third parties except in cases described below under 'Disclosure of your information', but we may publish aggregate information about our users (for example, that men aged under 30 have the worst sleeping habits in the UK) in the context of providing public health information, conducting academic research and/or marketing and publicity. We may also use such aggregate information to help advertisers reach the kind of audience they want to target (for example, women in London). We may make use of the personal data we have collected from you to enable us to comply with our advertisers' wishes by displaying their advertisement to that target audience.
We may disclose your personal information to any member of our group, which means our subsidiaries, our ultimate holding company and its subsidiaries, as defined in section 1159 of the UK Companies Act 2006.
We may disclose your personal information to third parties:
You have the right to ask us not to process your personal data for direct marketing purposes. We will inform you before collecting your data and will collect your consent in accordance with current legislation if we intend to use your data for such purposes or if we intend to disclose your information to any third party for such purposes. You can exercise your right to prevent such processing by checking certain boxes on the forms we use to collect your data or by not entering your email address when prompted. You can also exercise the right at any time by contacting us at the below details.
If you do not want your personal data used by HealthTracker as provided in this Privacy Policy, you should not register an account or for any specific services that collects personal data. You may correct, update or review personal data you have submitted through registration, by signing in and updating your personal information on your Account page. If you have registered and no longer want HealthTracker to use your personal data, please contact HealthTracker at the below details.
The Website may, from time to time, contain links to and from the websites of our partner networks, advertisers and affiliates. If you follow a link to any of these websites, please note that these websites have their own privacy policies and that we do not accept any responsibility or liability for these policies. Please check these policies before you submit any personal data to these websites.

Any changes we may make to our privacy policy in the future will be posted on this page and if any changes of material significance are made then we shall notify you by email (sent to the email address specified when you register) and/or by means of a notice on this website prior to the change becoming effective.
