PRIVACY AND SECURITY POLICY

Last updated: Dec 04, 2024

MyfirmX (“MyfirmX“, “we“, “us“, or “our“) values your privacy and the security of your information. MyfirmX is a technology platform that enables registered users to connect with physicians and other healthcare providers for the diagnosis and treatment of erectile dysfunction. This Privacy and Security Policy (the “Policy“) describes how MyfirmX collects, uses, discloses, and otherwise processes individually identifiable information (“Personal Information“) via our website at myfirmx.com (the “Site“) and our services accessible through the Site (the “Services“), which enable registered users to communicate with third‑party healthcare providers to receive services via telemedicine.

PLEASE REVIEW THIS PRIVACY AND SECURITY POLICY CAREFULLY. It explains how we collect, use, and disclose information about visitors of our Site and users of our Services. This Policy is incorporated into our Terms and Conditions. Capitalized terms not defined here have the meanings provided in the Terms and Conditions.

MyfirmX does not provide medical advice and does not dispense prescriptions. For information on the healthcare providers and pharmacies to whom we disclose your information via the Services, see How We May Disclose Your Personal Information With Others below. By visiting the Site or using our Services, you acknowledge and agree that your Personal Information will be handled as described in this Policy.

In states with laws applicable to consumer health data (e.g., Washington and Nevada), our Consumer Health Data Privacy Policy also applies.

Privacy laws evolve. We may change this Policy at any time. Material changes will be conspicuously posted on the Site or otherwise communicated to you. Changes are effective immediately upon posting to the Site.


Supplemental State Privacy Notices

California Residents: See California Privacy Rights Notice below.

Residents of Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Iowa, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Nevada, Oregon, Texas, Virginia, and Utah: See State Supplemental Privacy Notice below for additional rights and terms.


INFORMATION WE COLLECT ABOUT YOU

We may collect Personal Information directly from you, from third parties, and automatically through your use of the Site or Services.

Information We Collect Directly From You

We collect Personal Information via the Site and Services, including through dynamic intake forms where you enter information electronically.

Account Information. You may browse informational areas of the Site without creating an account. Registration is required to use the Services. To register, you may be asked to provide Personal Information such as name, date of birth, address, email, phone number, user ID and password, and a government or other picture ID.

The email address you provide will be used for account correspondence, medical information, and prescription‑related communications. By providing an email address, you understand and agree we will use that address for communications about your account, medical information, and prescriptions. We are not responsible for disclosures resulting from third‑party access to your email account, whether or not authorized by you.

Medical Information and Providers. You may complete a medical profile and communicate health‑related information to MyfirmX, which we pass through to a healthcare provider licensed in your jurisdiction, along with applicable Personal Information (e.g., registration information and picture ID). The healthcare services are provided by independent, provider‑owned professional entities (each, a “Provider“). MyfirmX is not responsible for any Provider’s use of your Personal Information. Please review the Provider’s privacy notice (available from the Provider or via links on our Site where available).

We also provide technology through which you may provide additional Personal Information directly to your Provider via real‑time chat/telephone, live two‑way video and audio, and secure messaging (including email and text). We forward Personal Information you provide to us to your Provider using “store‑and‑forward” (asynchronous) technology.

Prescription Information and Pharmacies. If your Provider authorizes a prescription, the Services may facilitate placement and delivery of that prescription to you via third‑party pharmacies (each, a “Pharmacy“). MyfirmX is not responsible for any Pharmacy’s use of your Personal Information. Please review the applicable Pharmacy’s privacy notice.

HIPAA Does Not Apply. Information provided through the Services, whether or not disclosed to a Provider or a Pharmacy, is not considered “protected health information” under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 and its regulations (collectively, “HIPAA“). HIPAA does not necessarily apply simply because health information is involved, and HIPAA does not apply to your transactions or communications with MyfirmX. However, any medical or health information subject to specific protections under applicable state or federal laws will be used and disclosed in accordance with such laws.

Payment Information. You must provide payment information for orders. Payments made via the Site are processed by our third‑party payment processor(s). Please review the processor’s privacy policy for details.

Sensitive Information. We do not intend to collect data revealing racial/ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, trade‑union membership, genetic or biometric data, or sexual orientation. Due to the nature of our Services, certain information we collect may be deemed Sensitive Personal Information in some states (e.g., health information or inferences about sex life). Depending on your state, you may have additional rights regarding our use of your Sensitive Personal Information. See State Supplemental Privacy Notices.

Information We Receive From Others

We may receive Personal Information about you from third parties, including social media sites (lead information), interest‑based advertising providers, data analytics providers, Providers, and Pharmacies.

Information We Collect Automatically

Account Activity. We may collect data about how you use your account and the Site when logged in.

Tracking Technologies. We may automatically collect information about your use of the Site and Services through scripts, cookies, pixels, web beacons, SDKs, and similar technologies (“Tracking Technologies“), including: browser/OS, pages viewed, links clicked, IP address, ISP, device ID, approximate geolocation, referring URL, timestamps, session duration, and engagement metrics. Some of this information may be deemed Personal Information. We may combine this with other information we collect (including your account information) and disclose some of this to analytics providers for advertising purposes.

Tracking Technologies help us: (a) collect information about Site usage; (b) understand aggregate statistics; (c) improve Services, experience, content, and offerings; (d) enable advertising and analytics; and (e) customize your experience. Most browsers accept cookies by default. You can change settings to disable certain Tracking Technologies, but doing so may impact Site functionality. Some cookies are essential and cannot be disabled.

Ad Networks. We use third‑party ad networks (e.g., Google, Meta, Snapchat, and other platforms) to deliver ads across the internet, email, and streaming media. These networks may place Tracking Technologies on the Site or your browser to collect information when you visit (e.g., browser type, timestamps, browsing or transaction activity, ad interactions, and platform identifiers) to serve ads for our products/services or third‑party offerings. Review those networks’ privacy policies for details. To opt out of targeted advertising, look for the AdChoices icon in ads and use the provided links, or visit:

Under certain state privacy laws, you may have the right to opt out of processing for targeted advertising (see State Supplemental Privacy Notice). You may also use the Privacy Choices link on our Site (where available).

Analytics. We use analytics tools to collect information about your use of the Site. Your browser may automatically send data (e.g., page URLs and IP address) to our analytics providers, which may set/read cookies. Providers use this information to furnish reports about traffic and interactions so we can improve Site structure and content. You can opt out of Google Analytics via https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

Social Media. We are active on social media (e.g., Facebook, X, Snapchat, Instagram, TikTok). Anything you post publicly is not confidential. We may repost on our Site or pages. Your use of social media is governed by those platforms’ policies, not this Policy.

Do Not Track. We currently do not respond to “Do Not Track” signals.

SAFEGUARDING PERSONAL INFORMATION

We employ reasonable technical, physical, administrative, and organizational safeguards to protect Personal Information from loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. While we take commercially reasonable measures, we cannot guarantee the security of information you transmit to MyfirmX or through the Site/Services. MYFIRMX DOES NOT REPRESENT OR WARRANT THAT THE TRANSMISSION OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION, INCLUDING HEALTH INFORMATION, WILL BE SECURE.


ACCESS FROM OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES

If you access the Site from outside the United States, Personal Information may be transferred to, stored in, and processed in the U.S. The level of protection in the U.S. may not be equivalent to that required by other jurisdictions.


THIRD‑PARTY SITES

THIS PRIVACY AND SECURITY POLICY APPLIES ONLY TO MYFIRMX.

THE SITE MAY LINK TO WEBSITES NOT CONTROLLED BY US. MYFIRMX DOES NOT CONTROL AND IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR HOW THIRD PARTIES HANDLE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION, INCLUDING HEALTH INFORMATION, SUCH AS THIRD‑PARTY MEDICAL PROVIDERS OR PHARMACIES. PLEASE REVIEW THE PRIVACY POLICIES ON EACH THIRD‑PARTY SITE.

Although we work with Providers and Pharmacies to whom you are connected via the Services, this Policy does not address how those Providers/Pharmacies use and disclose information obtained via the Services.


WHAT YOU SHOULD DO TO PROTECT YOUR INFORMATION

Choose a strong password and keep it confidential. Anyone with your password may view/modify your information, communicate with MyfirmX and your Provider, and take other action. Prevent disclosure of your password to others. Protect your devices. Sign off after using shared computers.

You may access/update certain information or deactivate your account from your profile page when logged in. You may also request access, correction, or updates by contacting support@myfirmx.com. We will make reasonable efforts to respond promptly. We may deny requests if doing so would violate law or make information inaccurate; we will inform you of the reason.

You may request deletion of your Personal Information. We will attempt to comply unless retention is required by law. When we delete your Personal Information, it is removed from active systems but may remain in archives. We may retain and use information that does not personally identify you. To the extent your Personal Information has been disclosed to third parties, we may be unable to access or cause deletion/modification by those parties.
