  • Third-Party Services we work with: We utilize the following services to better understand how people use Flipd products, and how we can market to them. We've included a list of these services to help you understand how we use them:

    • Google Analytics: Google Analytics allows us to see information on user activities including, but not limited to, page views, source, and time spent. The information is depersonalized and is displayed as numbers, meaning it cannot be tracked back to individuals. Using Google Analytics we can see what content is popular, and strive to give you more of the things you enjoy doing. To opt out of Google’s use of cookie tracking, please visit Google’s ad settings page (http://www.google.com/settings/ads) or the Network Advertising Initiative’s opt-out page (http://www.networkadvertising.org/managing/opt_out.asp).

    • Firebase: We use Firebase to track bugs and crashes in our products. We utilize a unique identifier (email or userid) to connect crashes logged in these services to our platform. No additional data is transferred or collected.

    • Amplitude: We use Amplitude for behavioral analytics data. We utilize events and unique identifiers (email, userid, type of device) to analyze users' actions and gain a better understanding of your engagement with Flipd products, which helps us focus on improving the features users are enjoying.

    • Intercom: Intercom is our customer service and customer relationship management tool. With Intercom we are able to provide customer service via email and the chat function in our apps. Because customer service is provided directly to the consumer, it is not depersonalized.

    • Sendgrid & Clevertap: These are our email management systems, which we use to send our newsletter, offer emails, and push notifications. We synchronize our marketing information with these platforms, and it is not depersonalized. Users can opt out directly from our emails by unsubscribing.

You can withdraw your consent for the use of your personal information at any time by taking any one of the following actions: A) requesting the deletion of your account by contacting us; B) by providing written notice to us of that withdrawal; or C) deleting your account yourself through your Account Settings.

  • If you are an Institution or Faculty and opted-in to receive marketing communications but at any time you do not wish to continue receive marketing communications, you may follow the “unsubscribe” instructions included within each email communication or by selecting or deselecting (depending on the service) the appropriate option in your account. Please keep in mind that, even if you choose not to receive marketing communications, you cannot opt-out of receiving transactional or account communications related to services or products that you have requested (e.g. purchase confirmation e-mails and receipts) or important updates from us from time to time relating to our Products or updates to the legal terms that govern your use of our Products.

6. How we use Apple HealthKit
