Privacy Policy

Effective Date: April 6, 2026 | Last Updated: April 6, 2026

Introduction

This Privacy Policy (“our Privacy Policy”) describes how Heyday Health, Inc. (“Heyday Health,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) collects and processes personal information about you through the use of the Beacon care navigation application (including its iOS, Android, and web versions), our website at beaconhealthapp.com, www.heydayhealth.com, and its subpages (collectively, our “Website”), as well as through other electronic communications between you and Heyday Health, our marketing activities, and other activities described in this Privacy Policy (collectively, the “Services”). This Privacy Policy also describes our practices for collecting, using, maintaining, protecting, and disclosing that information. We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting it through our compliance with this policy.

This Privacy Policy applies to information we collect: through the Beacon application; on our Website; in email, text, and other electronic messages between you and our Services; and when you interact with our advertising and applications on third-party websites and services, if those applications or advertising include links to this policy. It does not apply to information collected by: us offline or through any other means, including on any other website operated by us or any third party; or any third party, including through any application or content (including advertising) that may link to or be accessible from or through the Services. As this Privacy Policy covers different aspects of our Services and our personal information practices vary depending upon the particular Service aspect with which you interact, not all disclosures contained in this Privacy Policy may be relevant to you.

Please read this policy carefully to understand our policies and practices regarding your information and how we will treat it. If you do not agree with our policies and practices, your choice is not to use our Services. By accessing or using our Services, you agree to this Privacy Policy. This Privacy Policy may change from time to time (see below under “Changes to Our Privacy Policy”). Your continued use of our Services after we make changes is deemed to be acceptance of those changes, so please check this Privacy Policy periodically for updates.

Information We Collect About You

The nature of the information we collect about you depends on how you interact with the Services. For example, if you interact with our Website in comparison to interacting with the Beacon application, our personal data practices differ. In particular, Beacon users can choose much of the personal data that they provide to us. This is especially true around sensitive personal information below, which may not apply in all circumstances. Please keep these concepts in mind as you engage with the Services and read this Privacy Policy.

We collect, or may collect, several types of information from and about you, specifically:

  • Contact data, such as your first and last name, email address, mailing address, and phone number.

  • Demographic data, such as your city, state, country of residence, postal code, gender, age, and date of birth.

  • Profile data, such as your username, password, photograph or avatar, biographical details, health interests, preferences, and any other information that you add to your account profile.

  • Health record data, such as medical records, lab results, clinical notes, imaging reports, discharge summaries, pathology reports, medication lists, care plans, appointment histories, and other health-related documents that you upload, sync, or otherwise provide through the Services, including data imported through our integration with third-party health record services (such as Fasten Health).

  • Care navigation data, such as your interactions with the Beacon care navigator chatbot, including messages you send, questions you ask, topics you explore, appointment preparation notes, and the AI-generated responses you receive.

  • Audio and transcription data, such as recordings of medical appointments you choose to make through the Services and any transcriptions generated from those recordings.

  • Transactional data, such as information relating to or needed to complete transactions through the Services, including order numbers and transaction history.

  • Payment data, needed to complete transactions, including payment card information or bank account number. We use third-party vendors to directly collect and process your payment card information, as described further below.

  • Communications data, based on our exchanges with you, including when you contact us through the Services, communicate with us via email, phone, in-app chat, social media, or otherwise.

  • Marketing data, such as your preferences for receiving our marketing communications and details about your engagement with them.

  • User-generated content data, such as comments, reviews, questions, messages, and other content or information that you generate, transmit, or otherwise make available through the Services, including associated metadata.

  • Sensitive Personal Information, including racial, ethnic, or national origin; religious or philosophical beliefs; mental or physical health condition, diagnosis, history, treatment, or other health data; pregnancy and fertility status; sex life, sexuality, or sexual orientation; account login information; and financial information.

  • Data about others. We may collect information from caregivers about individuals with whom they have a relationship. Please do not share contact details or other information about an individual with us unless you have their permission to do so.

We refer to this information collectively as “Personal Data” or “personal information” in this Privacy Policy.
