Limbo’s Use of Protected Health Information (PHI) and Your Rights

In some cases, Limbo may receive and maintain certain Personal Information from or on behalf of a HIPAA covered entity which is considered “protected health information” or “PHI” and is protected by federal and state laws. For example, we may receive PHI in the form of enrollment data from your employer’s health plan in connection with an offering for the Services.

When Limbo receives PHI from a covered entity, Limbo will use, disclose and protect PHI as required under its agreement with the covered entity. Under HIPAA, you may have certain rights relating to your PHI, such as the right to:

  • request that Limbo restrict the use and disclosure of your PHI;
  • access your PHI anytime by sending a written request to the address below;
  • amend your PHI if you believe there are problems or errors with your PHI; or
  • receive a list of certain PHI disclosures made by Limbo in the past six years, from the date of your written request to us at the address below.

You may exercise these rights, if permitted under HIPAA, by contacting the covered entity that processes your PHI, such as your employer health plan, or by contacting Limbo as described in the “Contacting Us” section below.

 

Use and Disclosure of Other Information

In addition, the Services may collect “Other Information,” which does not reveal your specific identity or does not directly relate to an identifiable individual. Our Services collect Other Information such as:

  • Limbo App usage data;
  • Location information;
  • Browser and device information; and
  • Information collected through cookies, pixel tags and other technologies.

We may use and disclose Other Information for any purpose, except where we are required to do otherwise under applicable law. If we are required to treat Other Information as Personal Information under applicable law, we may use and disclose it for the purposes for which we use and disclose Personal Information as detailed in this Policy. In some instances, we may combine Other Information with Personal Information. If we do, we will treat the combined information as Personal Information as long as it is combined.
