This Privacy Policy describes how Semper Validus, LLC, a Florida limited liability company, and its affiliates, successors, and assigns as applicable (“Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collect, use, disclose, retain, and protect information in connection with the Semper Validus mobile fitness application and related content, features, tools, and services (the “App”). The App is a direct-to-consumer fitness, exercise, and wellness tracking tool that allows adult users to input, store, monitor, and review exercise routines, performance metrics, goals, progress, and health or wellness information over time.
This Privacy Policy is incorporated into and forms part of the Semper Validus Terms of Service. If the Terms of Service conflict with this Privacy Policy, this Privacy Policy governs solely with respect to the handling of personal information.
Article 1. Scope; Eligibility; Relationship to Health-Care Laws
1.1 Scope. This Privacy Policy applies to information that we collect through or in connection with the App, including account information, User Content, Health Information, mobile-device information, usage information, transaction information, uploaded images, information received through integrations, communications with us, and other information described in this Privacy Policy.
1.2 Adult Users Only. The App is intended solely for individuals who are at least 18 years of age. We do not knowingly permit persons under 18 years of age to create an account, submit User Content, or use the App.
1.3 Direct-to-Consumer Fitness and Wellness App. The App is not a medical device, does not provide medical, clinical, nutritional, psychological, therapeutic, diagnostic, emergency, or professional health-care advice, and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, mitigate, or prevent any disease, injury, disorder, or medical condition.
1.4 HIPAA Acknowledgment. Unless we separately and expressly enter into a written business associate agreement or other written arrangement stating otherwise, we are not acting as your health-care provider, health plan, health-care clearinghouse, or the business associate of any such entity solely by making the App available to you, and information that you submit directly to the App is not protected by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act and its implementing regulations solely because it relates to your health.
1.5 Do Not Submit Restricted Information. You should not submit information to the App that you do not want us to process under the Terms of Service and this Privacy Policy. You are responsible for the accuracy, appropriateness, and legality of all Health Information and other User Content you submit.
Article 2. Definitions
“Health Information” means information you enter, upload, generate, or make available through the App relating to your health, wellness, body metrics, exercise routines, nutrition, symptoms, medical conditions, medications, injuries, limitations, goals, progress, biometric or wearable-device data, and other health or wellness-related information.

“User Content” means all information, data, text, images, photographs, videos, comments, exercise logs, routines, Health Information, profile information, messages, and other materials that you submit, upload, transmit, store, display, or otherwise make available through the App.

“Aggregated Data” means information that has been combined with information from other users or sources so that it does not identify any individual user personally.
“Clinical Health Organizations” means hospitals, clinics, academic medical centers, research organizations, public-health organizations, clinical-trial sponsors, digital-health companies, health analytics organizations, and other health-care, wellness, medical, clinical, research, or life-sciences organizations to which we may disclose or license De-identified Data or Aggregated Data for permitted purposes.
