You must prevent unauthorized access to your account and Personal Information by selecting and protecting your password and/or other sign-on mechanism appropriately and limiting access to your computer or device and browser by signing off after you have finished accessing your account.
Although we make good faith efforts to store Personal Information in a secure operating environment that is not open to the public, we do not and cannot guarantee the security of your Personal Information. If at any time during or after our relationship we believe that the security of your Personal Information may have been compromised, we may seek to notify you of that development.

If we have your e-mail address, we may notify you by e-mail to the most recent e-mail address you have provided us in your account profile. Please keep your e-mail address in your account up to date which can be updated at anytime in your account profile.

We retain Personal Information about you for as long as you have an open account with us or as otherwise necessary to provide you Services. In some cases, we retain Personal Information for longer, if doing so is necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes or collect fees owed, prevent fraud, enforce the Agreement, or as otherwise permitted or required by applicable law, rule or regulation. Afterwards, we retain some information in a depersonalized or aggregated form but not in a way that would identify you personally.

You may have arrived at the Services from, or begun your use of the Services at, a third-party web service, including a third-party web service that links to My 1Health or embeds My 1Health content. The presence of such links or content on third-party web services does not mean that we endorse that web service, the quality or accuracy of information presented on the non-My 1Health web service or the persons or entities associated with the non-My 1Health web service. You may be subject to the privacy policy of the third-party web service as applicable and we are not responsible for the policies and practices of the third-party web services.
