In addition, in order to improve your experience with the Services, you may choose to provide additional information such as your [gender, birth date, ethnicity, insurance provider, physical activity, and other health information]. You can choose not to provide certain information, but then you may not be able to register for the Azalea Health Services or take advantage of some features of the Services.

When your device syncs with Azalea Health’s application, certain data recorded on your device is transferred from your device to our servers.

Information We Obtain from Your Use of Our Services

We collect certain information automatically, such as your operating system version, browser type, and internet service provider. We also collect information about your interaction with the Services, such as creating or logging into your account, or opening or interacting with the Services on your mobile device. When you use our Site, we automatically collect and store this information in service logs. This includes: details of how you used our Site; Internet protocol address; cookies that uniquely identify your browser, the referring web page and pages visited. We may also collect and process information about your actual location. The information we collect automatically is statistical data and may or may not include Personal Data, but we may maintain it or associate it with Personal Data we collect in other ways or receive from third parties.

Location Data

If you grant us access to your location, Azalea Health may collect information about your location when you use our Sites and Services. Your location can be determined by: IP address, and information about things near your device, such as Wi-Fi access points and cell towers. When you use our Services via a wireless device, we may solicit your permission to collect your location data. Some features within our application may only function upon confirmation of your location, and therefore such features will not be available if you choose not to provide your location data to us.

If you are a partner submitting a lead to us, we will collect information related to you as a partner as well as information related to the lead including details about the organization, address, contact information, needs, past purchase history, and purchaser preferences.

Health and Other Special Categories of Personal Data

Under a federal law called the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (“HIPAA”), some demographic, health and/or health-related information that Azalea Health collects as part of providing the Services may be considered “protected health information” or “PHI.” HIPAA provides specific protections for the privacy and security of PHI and restricts how PHI is used and disclosed. Azalea Health handles all PHI in strict accordance with applicable laws and regulations. In addition, Azalea Health Partners shall be contractually bound to protect PHI to the same degree as set forth in this Privacy Policy. All Protected Health Information that Azalea Health processes is used and disclosed by us as a Business Associate (as defined by HIPAA) according to the terms of a Business Associate Agreement between us and that healthcare provider. Azalea Health Partners, to the extent they are bound by HIPAA, are also required to describe their privacy practices.

Voice, Audio, and Video Data

When you use features within our Services that involve voice dictation, ambient AI documentation, or telehealth video, we may collect the following types of data:

  • Voice audio recordings captured through microphone access, and transcriptions or notes generated from those recordings through AI-assisted documentation or dictation features (such as ambient scribing or voice-to-text tools available to clinicians within the EHR).
  • Telehealth session video streams and associated session metadata (such as session duration and connection quality diagnostics) when you participate in or conduct a video visit through our platform.

Our applications may request access to your device microphone and/or camera to enable these features. Microphone and camera permissions are used only while the relevant feature is actively in use. You may revoke these permissions at any time through your device or browser settings; doing so will disable the associated voice dictation or telehealth video features.

Voice audio and telehealth video data processed through our Services may constitute Protected Health Information (PHI) when associated with an identifiable patient or encounter. Such data is handled in accordance with the HIPAA Rules and the applicable Business Associate Agreement between Azalea Health and the covered entity using our Services.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

We and our partners use various technologies to collect and store information when you visit one of our services, and this may include using cookies or similar technologies to identify your browser or device. We also use these technologies to collect and store information when you interact with services from our partners, such as advertising services. Our third party advertising and analytics partners include Google, Lead Forensics and similar partners.

The technologies we use for this automatic data collection may include:

These third parties include payment processors, such as financial institutions and their vendors and contractors that process transactions, marketing partners, and similar partners. It is our policy to only share Personal Data with contractors, service providers, technology partners, and other third parties who are bound by contractual obligations to keep Personal Data confidential and use it only for the purposes for which we disclose it to them. Under certain circumstances, you may avoid having us share your information with our business partners and vendors by not granting us permission to share your information. Not granting us permission to share your information with our business partners or vendors may limit your access to their services through the Sites.

Voice, Audio, and AI Transcription Processors. We share voice audio and AI-generated transcription or dictation output with third-party service providers that power our voice documentation features.
