Privacy Policy

Effective Date: [December 10, 2025]

Welcome to "VitalBP: Heart Rate Monitor" (hereinafter referred to as "this App" or "We"). We understand that your health data is highly sensitive, and protecting the security of your personal information is our top priority. This Privacy Policy and Terms of Service (hereinafter referred to as "this Agreement") aims to clearly explain how we collect, use, store, and protect your information, as well as the rights you have when using this App.

Please read and understand the entire content of this Agreement carefully before using this App. By starting to use this App, you signify that you have fully read, understood, and agreed to all the terms of this Agreement.

1. Information We Collect

To provide you with personal health tracking services, this App processes the following information:

1. Health Data You Actively Enter: This is the core information processed by the App. You can choose to manually enter and store your measurements such as heart rate, blood pressure, weight, along with any activity tags (e.g., "post-workout," "pre-meal") and notes you add. This data is created and controlled entirely by you.
2. Device and Anonymous Usage Data: To ensure stable operation and improve our services, we may collect anonymized, non-personally identifiable information, such as device model, operating system version, frequency of app feature usage, and crash reports. This information cannot be linked back to you or your personal health data.

Important Note: This App does not automatically read or sync data from any external health devices, sensors, or other apps on your phone. All health data entry relies solely on your manual input.

2. How We Use Your Information

We strictly adhere to the principle of "data minimization" and use your information only for the following purposes:

• Core Function Services: Storing, calculating, and visualizing the health data you enter on your device to generate trend charts, statistics, and health overviews, providing you with personal health insights.
• Service Optimization and Maintenance: Using anonymized usage data to diagnose issues, optimize app performance, and improve user experience.
• Legal Obligations and Security: Using relevant information when required by laws and regulations or when necessary to protect the safety, rights, and property of us and our users.

3. Data Storage, Security, and Retention

• Primarily Local Storage: All personal health data you enter is by default stored securely on your local device. We merely provide data management tools and do not actively transmit or back up this data to our servers.
• Data Security: We employ industry-standard technical and organizational measures (such as on-device encryption) to protect the security of your data. You are responsible for the physical and access security of the device itself (e.g., setting a device passcode).
• Data Deletion: You can remove any of your health records from your device at any time using the edit or delete functions within the App. Uninstalling the App will erase all locally stored data.

4. Sharing and Disclosure of Information

We will never sell, rent, or share your personal health data with third parties for marketing purposes. We may share information only under the following strictly limited circumstances:

• Legal and Compliance Requirements: When we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to comply with applicable laws, regulations, legal processes, or governmental requests, or to protect personal safety or prevent serious illegal activities.
• Authorized Service Providers: We may engage third-party service providers bound by strict contracts to assist us with internal operations like crash analytics and anonymized statistics, processing only anonymized technical data (not your personal health data).

5. Your Rights and Choices

• Full Data Control: You can view, edit, export, or delete any data you create within this App at any time.
• Opt-Out: You can restrict the App's access to certain permissions in your device settings, though this may affect the availability of some features (e.g., not receiving notifications). You can also terminate data collection by ceasing to use the App.
