3. OUR SERVICES

Health Score

Using our health score functionality, you can take assessments to see which areas of your general and health wellbeing you may be able to improve and how to do that. We might do this by providing you with access to referenced external research and content. To unlock your health score, we ask that you share your data anonymously with us to allow us to offer you personalised responses and to power the recommendations we make to you and to people like you.

Sharing Feature

The sharing feature gives you the option to give access to your selected data with other persons through the mobile application. You can do this by submitting the other person’s email address in the “Give Access to someone new” section. Once the other person has created their account with us and accepted your invitation, they will be able to see the information you have chosen to give them access to. If you decide to use the sharing feature, you acknowledge the following:

  • you can choose to share parts of your data and keep other parts private;
  • you are responsible for ensuring that the email you have provided is correct for the person you intend to give access to your information. We cannot verify or check this;
  • we cannot prevent the email address you submit on the “Give Access to someone new” section being accessed by persons other than those whom you intend to give access to your information;
  • we are not responsible for ensuring that the other person to whom you have given access can keep your information confidential and secure, and that it is appropriate to give them access to such information;
  • we cannot and do not take any responsibility for what the other person will do with your information, for example:
    • the other person may use their own means to download, save or store your data;
    • the other person may unintentionally or otherwise share your information with a third party;
    • we do not carry out any checks or due diligence on the other person; and we cannot stop or force any person to delete your information once you have provided them with access.

You can revoke access to anyone you have shared with, or change the parts of your data which they can see, at any time. Where you choose to give another person access to your data, that person will be able to see everything in your data which you can.

Other Services

From time to time we may make changes to the Services that are made available to you. This may be in the form of improvements and enhancements to the existing Services and the addition of new functionality. We may also remove certain Services at our sole discretion. Certain updates to the service may be mandatory and failure by you to install them may result in the Service no longer being available to you.

4. HOW DO I OPEN AN KLARITY ACCOUNT?

Anyone who is a resident of the United Kingdom who is 13 years of age or older and creates an account can use the Service. However, users outside the United Kingdom can also use the service although some features and functions might not apply or be relevant.

If you are under the age of 13 years (a “Child”), then you may only register for an account and use the Service if prior consent has been given by your parent or guardian, and they have agreed to these terms, as the party to this agreement, on your behalf.

By creating an account within the application on behalf of a Young Person, you are agreeing that you are the Responsible Person for that Young Person and will take the necessary steps upon the Young Person reaching 13 years old, to enable the Young Person to take over their health data. When you register for an account it is important that you understand that each registration is for a single user only. We do not permit you to share your username and password with any other person nor with multiple users on a network.

In order to use the Service, we require you to create an account by providing us with your name, email address and a strong password. You are responsible for the activity that occurs in association with your account. Responsibility for the security of any passwords issued rests with you. There are also some technical requirements as to whether you can use the services.

5. COMMUNICATING WITH YOU

We’ll usually communicate with you through the app or through the website, but we may also communicate with you by email, so you should regularly check your email account. You can specify which types of communication you would like to receive from us by using the “Communication Preferences” functionality within the “Settings” section of the mobile app.

Please keep your details up to date and let us know immediately if any information you’ve given us changes. If we discover that any of your information is incorrect, we will update it.

How do I close my account?

You can close your account, and so end the agreement, at any time by letting us know. You can also delete your account from within the “Settings” area of the mobile application at any time.

How is my account protected

We will help keep your account and personal information safe, secure and private. Your account is password protected to prevent unauthorised access by anyone else.

The data that is entered, transmitted and stored is encrypted to prevent any unauthorised use of the data.

The electronic transmission of data over the internet is never completely secure but we endeavour to make the service as secure as possible and provide a high level of security for your personal healthcare information.

You are also responsible for the safety of your information. You should choose a strong password (or use the biometric unlock function of the app), and be sure that you don’t let anybody else know it. Keep your mobile phone and email account secure and don’t let other people use them. If you suspect that somebody else has used your account without permission, you should reset your password immediately. If in doubt, please get in touch with us.

Are there any restrictions on using my account?

All that we ask is that you act reasonably and responsibly when using your account. Do not use it for illegal purposes or in a way that might harm our ability to provide our services.

Please also act in a respectful way towards us and our support staff we’re here to help you.

When we might block or close your account

The safety of your data is important to us. We might prevent you from accessing your account if we’re reasonably concerned about its security. We’ll tell you before, or as soon as possible after, we block or close your account. We’ll also let you know why we’ve done it (unless it would reduce your or our security or it would be unlawful). We may close or suspend your account immediately, and end your access to our website, in exceptional circumstances or where we cease to provide this service. If we are ceasing to provide the service, we will endeavour to let you know in advance.

We can change these terms

We’ll only change these terms and conditions for the following reasons:

  • if we think it will make them easier to understand or more helpful to you;
  • to reflect the way our business is run, particularly if the change is needed because of a change in the way any technology is provided;
  • to reflect legal or regulatory requirements that apply to us;
  • to reflect changes in the cost of running our business;
  • because we are changing or introducing new services or products that affect our existing services or products covered by these terms and conditions.

If we add a new product or service that doesn’t change the terms and conditions of your account, we may add the product or service immediately and let you know before you use it.

Otherwise, you’ll be informed of the changes the next time you use the app or website.

6. ARE YOU RESPONSIBLE IF SOMETHING GOES WRONG WITH MY ACCOUNT OR FOR INFORMATION PROVIDED THROUGH THE ACCOUNT?

We’ll do as much as reasonably possible to make sure that our services are not interrupted, are available 24 hours a day and are accessible at a reasonable speed. However, we can’t promise that this will always be the case or that the services will be free from faults. We also rely on some third parties to provide services to you, which can sometimes disrupt our services. we’ll always do our best to solve any problems with our services, no matter what the cause.

We are not responsible for the accuracy, quality and use of all of the information which can be accessed and viewed by you, but we are responsible for some of it.

Often, we will use externally published research, evidence or other external content in the production of such content and where this is the case we will clearly list and link to the references we have used. We are not responsible for external content and we accept no liability for the information (whether accurate or not) that it contains.

We are not responsible for your data or the information it contains; we accept no liability for information (whether accurate or not) on health advice, therapy, diagnosis and or treatment, in patient information leaflets and/or the information contained in medical notes, consultation records and/or other records. Sometimes we may direct you to external websites which may be accessed by and displayed on our software; we accept no liability for the information (whether accurate or not) that they contain. We do however make sure that the information that we provide to you is verified and that the references are available to you.
