4. WHAT PERSONAL INFORMATION WE RECEIVE

A. Personal Information About You

(1) Generally

As you will see below, we get a lot of information about you. After all, information about your health, your injury, your treatment, your employer, your insurance, your recovery, and the like can result in our receiving a lot of information about you. Except for the uses of information described in Section 6, we only use this information to provide services to you, to your employer, and the relevant workers compensation insurance company to assist with the management of workers compensation claims, including, without limitation, providing assistance related to health and medical care associated with injuries. We believe that acquiring this information is useful to you, to your employer, and to your workers compensation insurance company. We can do some really useful things with your information, such as: The specific services we provide you will vary with the services that your employer or workers compensation insurance company, or their contractors, contract with us to provide. It is also important for you to know that it is not a good idea to lie to your employer or insurance provider about the status of your injury or recovery. Some of the information we collect or receive can help determine whether you are telling us—and more importantly your workers compensation insurance company or employer——whether you are being truthful about your injury and recovery. For example, (i) if you are telling your insurance company that you are bedridden, we may be able to tell whether you went to a baseball game or the grocery store; (ii) if you are telling your employer or insurance company that you can’t raise your arm above the top of your shoulder, we may be able to tell whether you can do that or not. As with many things in life, it is important not to lie. Our services may allow us to catch you if you do. Misrepresentations to your employer or insurance company may be criminal, result in civil liability, could result in the loss of insurance benefits, or could result in your being fired by your employer.

(2) Information We Receive About You

We may receive the following personal information from you, your representatives or other providers:

(3) Location Information

If you download our app to your mobile device, we use information about your location. You can control whether and when we collect that information by adjusting the location settings on your mobile device. For example, you can allow us to receive location information at all times, only when your mobile device is running our app, or not at all.

(4) Movement Information

Many mobile devices can detect movement. If you download our app, we will capture certain information related to your movements (or, more accurately, the movement of your mobile device). We only collect movement information when our app is active on your mobile device.

(5) Biometric Information

Biometric information is information about you that can be measured about you physically. Examples of biometric information include heart rate, blood pressure, breathing rate, blood sugar levels, pictures of injuries, exercise and exercise patterns, skin tone, skin temperature, weight, and anything else about you that can be captured by the functionality of your mobile device or devices that communicate with your mobile device. Some mobile devices, or other devices that communicate with mobile devices, collect biometric information. For example, if you use an iWatch, an Android watch, a fitness tracker, or a similar device, we may capture biometric information that can be captured by these devices. Our capture of this information is limited by the kinds of biometric information that these devices capture. We receive this information from your mobile device if your mobile device captures this information itself or receives this information from your iWatch, Android watch, fitness tracker, or similar device. We may receive this information immediately or when our app syncs with the biometric device information on your mobile device. We only capture this information while you are using our app; however, while you use our app, we may receive biometric information that has been stored on your mobile device.
