We believe that transparency is the key to any healthy relationship. We appreciate that you trust us with information about you, and we want to be transparent about how we use it.
You own your personal data, and you are always in control. Therefore, we offer you several ways to control the privacy of your personal information and we are constantly striving to improve the functions and features needed in order for you to be in control. As a default setting, personal data related to your health will only be stored locally on your device. Although the app is configured to send account information (such as user name and/or email address) and technical data (such as IP address and device type) to us in certain situations, we will not able to get hold of or exercise any control of your health data unless you give us your consent.
The Moonite app (“we”, “us”, “our”) is the data controller for any personal data that you or the Moonite app forward to us and we will process your personal data only in accordance with applicable legislation, such as the GDPR. We are not the data controller for personal data that is processed locally on your device.
This notice describes how we process your personal data. You will learn about the data we collect, how we use it, your rights, and the measures we take to keep it safe. We always make sure that your data is protected in accordance with applicable legislation.
If you have any questions, or feel you need any part of this notice explained, please contact us.
When using the Moonite app, you will enter certain personal data into the app (such as your email address, your height and weight, when you go to bed and wake up, etc.), some personal data will be collected through your device’s accelerometer (such as your movements), microphone (such as snoring or other noises), camera (pulse), or device location (for weather and sleep location statistics), and some personal data will be derived (such as sleep efficiency and sleep quality).
Depending on what personal data you choose to provide, the data processed within the Moonite app may, alone or together with other data, indicate information about your health. Personal data, including health data, may also be collected from other sources, for example if you choose to connect the Moonite app with your Life Cycle app, or other (third party) apps – e.g. Google Fit or Apple Health.
Please note that this notice does not apply to third party products or services or the practices of companies that we do not own or control, including other companies you might interact with, in or through Moonite, unless indicated otherwise. We will not be responsible or liable for: (i) the availability or accuracy of such third party apps or sites (ii) the content, products or services on or availability of such third party apps or sites; or (iii) your use of any such third party apps or sites.
