SleepCoach Mobile Application

Privacy Policy

This privacy policy governs your use of the SleepCoach software application ("Application") on a mobile device. The Application was created by The University of Michigan. The Application includes features to help cancer patients improve their sleep using surveys and sleep diaries and expert-based advice.

What information does the Application obtain and how is it used?

This section is designed to inform Users of the types of data that the app obtains and how that information is used. The App Developer should make a reasonable attempt to ensure to provide Users with a clear, illustrative list of the most important data points obtained by each app. Moreover, the model policy attempts to draw a distinction between data that are provided directly by a User ("User Provided Information") and data that are collected automatically by the Application ("Automatically Collected Information").

User Provided Information – The Application obtains the information you provide when you download and use the Application. When you use the Application, you provide sleep diaries, and survey responses that we store on our servers.

Automatically Collected Information - In addition, the Application may collect certain information automatically, such as [the type of mobile device you use, your mobile device’s unique device ID, the IP address of your mobile device, your mobile operating system, the type of mobile internet browsers you use, and information about the way you use the Application.

Data Retention Policy, Managing Your Information

We will retain User Provided Information for as long as you use the Application and for a reasonable time thereafter. If you’d like us to delete User Provided Information that you have provided via the Application, please contact us at sleepcoach@umich.edu and we will respond in a reasonable time. Please note that some or all of the User Provided Information may be required for the Application to function properly, and we may be required to retain certain information by law.

Children

We do not use the Application to knowingly solicit data from or market to children under the age of 13. If a parent or guardian becomes aware that his or her child has provided us with information without their consent, he or she should contact us at sleepcoach@umich.edu. We will delete such information from our files within a reasonable time.

Security

We are concerned about safeguarding the confidentiality of your information. We provide physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to protect information we process and maintain. For example, we limit access to this information to authorized employees and contractors who need to know that information to operate, develop or improve our Application. Please be aware that, although we endeavor to provide reasonable security for information we process and maintain, no security system can prevent all potential security breaches.
