Privacy, Protected Health Information (PHI), and HIPAA
At Health Harmony, protecting your personal information is one of our highest priorities. We understand that health information is deeply personal, and we are committed to designing our platform with privacy and security in mind.
Our Commitment
Health Harmony is built to help individuals organize, understand, and manage their healthcare information. We strive to follow industry best practices for protecting sensitive data throughout the design, development, and operation of our platform.
Our approach includes:
-
Using secure methods to transmit and store data whenever possible
-
Limiting access to sensitive information based on business need
-
Applying security best practices during software development
-
Monitoring and improving our security controls over time
-
Evaluating new technologies and processes to continuously strengthen data protection
Protected Health Information (PHI)
Protected Health Information (PHI) is individually identifiable health information that relates to a person's health, healthcare services, or payment for healthcare.
Depending on how Health Harmony is used, users may choose to store or connect information that could be considered PHI.
We encourage users to share only the information necessary to achieve their goals within the application.
HIPAA
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) establishes standards for safeguarding certain health information.
Health Harmony is committed to designing our platform with HIPAA principles and privacy best practices in mind. As our platform evolves, we will continue to evaluate our technical, administrative, and operational safeguards to support applicable regulatory requirements.
Where applicable, we intend to work with trusted service providers that offer HIPAA-eligible services and execute Business Associate Agreements (BAAs) when required.
Security Measures
We employ security practices designed to help protect user information, which may include:
-
Encryption of data during transmission
-
Secure authentication methods
-
Access controls and permission management
-
Secure cloud infrastructure
-
Routine software updates and vulnerability management
-
Logging and monitoring of system activity where appropriate
No system can guarantee absolute security, but we are committed to continually improving our security posture and responding promptly to emerging risks.
User Responsibility
Users play an important role in protecting their information. We recommend that you:
-
Use a strong, unique password
-
Keep your login credentials confidential
-
Enable multi-factor authentication when available
-
Log out of shared or public devices
-
Review the information you choose to store or share
Third-Party Integrations
If Health Harmony connects with healthcare providers, electronic health record systems, wearable devices, or other third-party services, information exchanged through those integrations is subject to the privacy and security practices of those respective organizations.
We encourage users to review the privacy policies of any connected services.
