Introduction

Dodo Health (“we,” “our,” or “the Company”) is committed to safeguarding the privacy and security of personal and health information.
This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, disclose, and protect information in connection with our websites, mobile applications, and healthcare technology services.

Our privacy and security practices comply with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and we align our internal controls with the SOC 2 Trust Services Criteria, under which our security and privacy controls are independently audited.

Scope

This policy applies to all individuals who use or interact with Dodo’s services, including patients, healthcare professionals, business associates, contractors, and website visitors.

Information We Collect

Personal Information: Includes your name, contact details, user credentials, billing information, and other identifiers.

Protected Health Information (PHI): Medical records, treatment history, clinical data, or any information shared through our healthcare platform, processed in compliance with HIPAA.

Technical and Usage Data: Information such as IP address, browser type, device identifiers, access times, and usage activity to maintain and improve platform performance.

Cookies and Similar Technologies: We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to improve site functionality, enhance user experience, and ensure security.
For transparency, a detailed explanation of cookie types and preferences is available in our Cookie Policy and can be managed via our cookie consent management tool.

Purpose of Use

We collect and use data for legitimate and clearly defined purposes, including:

  • Delivering and managing healthcare and digital health services

  • Maintaining account authentication and access control

  • Securing and monitoring our technology infrastructure

  • Processing payments, insurance, and administrative functions

  • Conducting analytics to improve product performance and reliability

  • Meeting legal, regulatory, and contractual obligations

  • Performing research or quality improvement using anonymized or aggregated data

Dodo Health does not sell or rent personal or health information under any circumstances.

Legal Basis for Processing (GDPR)

Where GDPR applies, we process personal data only when one or more lawful bases exist:

  • Consent: You have provided explicit consent for processing.

  • Contract: Processing is necessary to provide requested services.

  • Legal Obligation: Processing is required under applicable law.

  • Legitimate Interest: To enhance operations, security, and user experience.

  • Vital Interest: To protect life or health in urgent medical or safety situations.

Data Sharing and Disclosure

We may share information under strict contractual safeguards with:

  • Authorized healthcare providers or partners involved in patient care

  • Business Associates under HIPAA-compliant agreements

  • Service providers (cloud hosting, analytics, communication tools) under data protection contracts

  • Auditors, regulators, or law enforcement when legally required

All third parties must maintain equivalent standards of security and confidentiality.

International Data Transfers

As a U.S.-based organization, Dodo may transfer personal data across jurisdictions.
When transferring data from the European Economic Area (EEA) or United Kingdom, we rely on approved mechanisms such as Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) or other lawful safeguards ensuring adequate protection.

Data Retention and Security

We retain personal and health information only as long as necessary to fulfil operational, contractual, or legal requirements.

To protect your information, we maintain comprehensive security controls, including:

  • Encryption (AES-256 at rest, TLS 1.3 in transit)

  • Role-based access control and multi-factor authentication

  • Continuous security monitoring and vulnerability testing

  • Regular third-party audits against the SOC 2 Trust Services Criteria

  • HIPAA-compliant administrative, technical, and physical safeguards

Your Rights

Under GDPR

You have the right to:

  • Access your personal data and request a copy

  • Request corrections or updates to inaccurate information

  • Request erasure of data (“right to be forgotten”) when legally applicable

  • Restrict or object to specific types of processing

  • Receive your data in a portable format

Children’s Privacy

Dodo Health recognizes that privacy protection for minors differs by jurisdiction.

  • General Website Use (COPPA): We do not knowingly collect data from children under 13 without verified parental consent.

  • EU/EEA Data Subjects (GDPR Art. 8): We do not process data from children under 16 without parental or guardian authorization.

  • Healthcare Data (HIPAA and State Law): When minors may legally consent to their own care (e.g., under California Family Code §6920 et seq.), they retain control over their own medical records.

Policy Updates

We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in law, regulation, or company practices.
The revised version and effective date will always be posted on our official website.
Material updates will be communicated directly when required by law.
