Our Privacy Commitment to You

‍

First, a note about Headspace Health’s commitment to your privacy.

‍

Headspace Health deeply values its role as a trusted provider of meditation,
mindfulness and mental health offerings through the Headspace and Ginger apps.
Headspace provides meditation and mindfulness content for stress, sleep, focus,
and movement, and Ginger provides on-demand mental health support through
coaching, therapy, psychiatry, and self-care resources. Ginger is a licensed
medical provider in the United States. For information about Ginger services
outside of the United States, please contact us at help@headspace.com. Central
to that role is our promise to safeguard the privacy of your personal
information.  Here are a few things we want you to know:

‍

 1. We only collect the personal information we need in order to provide you
    with Headspace Health’s services and products. We do not collect more
    information than we need. The personal information that we ask you to
    provide us, or give you the option to provide us, is intended to help us
    direct you to and deliver meditation, mindfulness, and mental health-related
    services, as applicable, that adhere to our standards of high quality and
    exceptional member service.

‍

 2. We do not use your personal information for purposes unrelated to the
    reasons for which it was collected, or that would not conform to your
    reasonable expectations.  We know it is important to you that you be aware
    of all the reasons that your information is collected, used and shared by
    Headspace Health. Our responsibility to safeguard your privacy is of the
    utmost importance to us.

 3. We do not retain personal information for longer than is necessary.  We
    understand the importance of minimizing the personal information that we may
    maintain.  We will only retain your data for the period of time necessary to
    fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, including delivering
    requested products and services, protecting the interests of our users and
    other stakeholders, and as otherwise consistent with our legal obligations
    or your reasonable expectations.

‍

 4. We do not sell your personal information to others.  We will not sell your
    personal information to third parties, except to the extent that our sharing
    of personal information to facilitate targeted digital advertising may be
    considered “selling” or “sharing” your personal information under certain
    state laws.

‍

 5. We offer you ways to control your personal information and express your
    preferences.  We provide you with a variety of ways to exercise control over
    your personal information, including providing you with options regarding
    what personal information you provide to us, exercising your account and

    other rights depending on your location and applicable law.

authorized. You can contact Headspace Health at help@headspace.com in order to
make such choices.

‍

General disputes arising from your use of the Headspace Health Platform, as well
as our Products and Services, can be found in our Terms & Conditions. However,
if you have any questions or concerns regarding our information collection, use,
and sharing practices as described in this Privacy Policy, you may reach us
using the Contact us section at the end of this Privacy Policy and we will
investigate the matter and resolve any issues, if we can. In the event that we
are unable to resolve any such questions or concerns, you may be able to invoke

Shield, by contacting our U.S.-based third party dispute resolution provider
(free of charge) at http://go.adr.org/privacyshield.html. Headspace Health is

Shield.

Policy and applies to any California residents about whom we have collected
personal information from any source, including offline, and through your use of
the Headspace Health Platform.

 

We provide this California Privacy Notice to comply with applicable privacy laws
in the State of California, including the California Consumer Privacy Act of
2018, and its amendment, the California Privacy Rights Act of 2020 (together,
the “CCPA”). Any capitalized term used and not otherwise defined below has the
meaning assigned to it in our Privacy Policy. 

 

The CCPA provides California residents with rights to receive certain
disclosures regarding the collection, use, and sharing of personal information,
as well as rights to access, delete, correct, limit, and opt-out of the sales of
certain personal information we collect about them, as well as to opt-out of the
sharing of certain personal information for purposes of cross-context behavioral
advertising (called “sharing” under California law). California residents also
have the right not to receive discriminatory treatment by us for the exercise of
your privacy rights under the CCPA. If you are a California resident, you may
submit a request to exercise these rights by emailing us using the information
provided in the Your Privacy Rights section below. 

 

For the purposes of this California Privacy Notice, except where a different
definition is noted, “personal information” means information that identifies,
relates to, describes, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could
reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular California
resident or household. Personal information does not include publicly available
information; lawfully obtained, truthful information that is a matter of public
concern; information that has been de-identified; or information that has been
aggregated. For purposes of this section, “publicly available information”
includes: information that is made available from federal, state, or local
government records; information that a business has a reasonable basis to
believe is lawfully available to the general public, either through widely
distributed media, or by the consumer; and information that is made available by
a person to whom the consumer has disclosed the information if the consumer has
not restricted the information to a specific audience.

 

For our CCPA disclosures with respect to Headspace Health’s collection, use and
disclosure of personal information for employment-related purposes, as well as
what privacy rights may be exercised as to such information, please review our
California Employee Privacy Policy.

‍

Please note that because of the overlapping nature of certain of the categories
of personal information identified above, which are required by state law, some
of the personal information we collect may be reasonably classified under
multiple categories.

Sensitive personal information.  Certain of the personal information that we
collect, as described above, may constitute “sensitive personal information”
under California law, including: 

 * Account log-in, financial account, debit card, or credit card number combined
   with any required security or access codes, passwords, or other credentials
   allowing access to an account;
 * Precise geolocation;
 * Racial and/or ethnic origin, religious or philosophical beliefs, or union
   membership;
 * Personal information concerning health; and
 * Personal information concerning sex life or sexual orientation.

The specific types of personal information we collect are further detailed in
Section 1 of this Privacy Policy. Personal information does not include
information excluded from the CCPA’s scope.

Headspace Health will not retain any information we collect about you for longer
than is reasonably necessary for the disclosed purpose of using such
information. Our determination of precise retention periods will be based on (i)
the length of time we have an ongoing relationship with you; (ii) whether there
is a legal obligation to which we are subject; and (iii) whether retention is
advisable in light of our legal position (such as in regard to applicable
statutes of limitations, litigation or regulatory investigations). 

 2. Uses of personal information

Headspace Health may collect, use, or disclose personal information about
California residents for purposes listed in Section 2 of our Privacy Policy.

The sensitive personal information that we collect as described in Section 10(a)
above may be used for any of the following purposes:

 3. Sources of personal information 

We obtain the categories of personal information listed above from the following
categories of sources:

 * From you, including, for example, from forms you complete when registering
   for the Headspace Products and Services, surveys that you take, or as
   automatically collected when using our Platform.
 * Through our service providers, which are third party companies who help us
   provide Products and Services to you consistent with the purposes disclosed
   in this Privacy Policy.
 * Directly from Partners for select subscriptions that are verified as
   described in the Headspace Privacy Policy.
 * From our business partners and others, including those that may promote
   and/or offer products and services that may be of interest to you.

We may supplement the personal information collected from the categories of
sources described above with personal information we obtain from other sources.

 4. Disclosure of personal information 

We may disclose your personal information to the categories of service providers
and third parties identified in Section 3 of this Privacy Policy, and in ways
that are described in that section.

This includes disclosure of your personal information to service providers for a
business purpose. When we disclose personal information for a business purpose,
we enter a contract that describes the purpose and requires the recipient to
both keep that personal information confidential and not to use it for any
purpose except performing the contract. In the preceding twelve (12) months, we
have disclosed each categories of personal information listed in Section 10(a),
including the listed sensitive personal information, for a business purpose.  

Headspace Health does not “sell” personal information to third parties for
monetary or other valuable consideration as that term is defined by the CCPA as
amended by the CPRA. 

However, we do “share” personal information for purposes of cross-context
behavioral advertising, as that term is defined by the CCPA. Specifically, as
with many online companies, Headspace Health partners with third parties, such
as Facebook and Google, to manage our marketing of Headspace Health on other
platforms, where such advertising is based on your past visits to our Platform.
These third party partners may use technologies, such as Cookies, to gather
information about your activities on the Platform to deliver such advertising to
you when you visit their platforms. For instance, if you visit
www.headspace.com, a cookie may be attached to your browser in the form of the
Facebook Pixel that allows Headspace Health to deliver advertising to you on the
Facebook platform.  Please also review our disclosures in Section 6 of our
Privacy Policy (“Cookies and other tracking technologies”).  

The CCPA requires us to identify the categories of personal information that we
have “sold” or “shared” under the CCPA in the preceding twelve (12) months.  

In the last twelve (12) months, we have disclosed (or “shared”) the following
categories of personal information to advertising partners for cross-context
behavioral advertising purposes:  

 * Identifiers
 * Internet or other electronic network activity information

 5. Your privacy rights 

The CCPA provides California residents with specific privacy rights regarding
their personal information. This section describes your CCPA rights and explains
how to exercise those rights.

If you are a California resident, you have the right to make the following
requests under applicable California law in relation to your personal
information, subject to certain exceptions:  

 * Right to Know.  You have the right to, up to twice in a 12-month period,
   request what personal information we collect, use, disclose, and/or sell, and
   to whom, as applicable. You may request either a report disclosing the
   general categories of the personal information we collect, or a report
   disclosing the specific pieces of personal information we collect.
 * Right to Delete.  You have the right to request, under certain circumstances,
   the deletion of your personal information that we collect.
 * Right to Opt-Out of Sale or Sharing.  You have the right to opt-out of the
   “sale” or “sharing” of your personal information, as those terms are defined
   under California law. Please note that Headspace Health does not currently
   sell your personal information, though it does “share” your personal
   information with third parties for cross-context behavioral advertising as
   disclosed elsewhere in this section.   
 * Right to Non-Discrimination.  You have the right not to receive
   discriminatory treatment for the exercise of the privacy rights described
   above.  
 * Right to Limit Use and Disclosure.  You have the right to limit the use or
   disclosure of your sensitive personal information to only the uses necessary
   for us to provide our Products and Services to you, or for certain other
   authorized purposes. We will not use or disclose your sensitive personal
   information after you have exercised your right unless you subsequently
   provide consent for the use of your sensitive personal information for
   additional purposes.
 * Right to Correct.  You have the right to request the correction of your
   inaccurate personal information.

How to submit a request. To submit a request of any of the rights described
above, please submit a verifiable consumer request to us by either:

 * Emailing us at help@headspace.com
 * Calling us at 855-432-3822

Any request you submit to us is subject to an identification and residency
verification process (“Verifiable Consumer Request”) as permitted by the CCPA. 
We will not fulfill your request unless you have provided sufficient information
that enables us to reasonably verify that you are the consumer about whom we
collected the personal information on.  In order to verify you, you must provide
us with your first and last name and email address.  

Requests by authorized agents.  You may designate an authorized agent, in
writing or through a power of attorney, to request to exercise the above rights
on your behalf. If you should use an authorized agent to exercise your various
rights under the CCPA, we may require that you provide your authorized agent
with written permission to exercise your various rights and to verify your own
identity with us. If your authorized agent does not submit proof that they have
been authorized by you to submit verified requests for disclosure and deletion,
we reserve the right to deny such a request that we have received and will
explain to your authorized agent why we have denied such request. The authorized
agent may submit a request to exercise these rights by emailing the letter of
authorization or power of attorney to help@headspace.com.

Household data.  We collect household data in connection with our family plans.
If we receive a Request to Delete, Know, or Correct submitted by all members of
a household, we will individually respond to each request consistent with
California law. If we receive a Request to Opt-Out or Limit submitted by all
members of a household, we will process the request based on the information we
have about your household and the individuals associated with it, and reserve
the right to ask for further information if we determine it is needed to fully
process your request. We will not be able to comply with any such request by a
member of a household under the age of 13, as we do not collect personal
information from any person under the age of 13.

Responses.  We will respond to your request within forty-five (45) days after
receipt of a Verifiable Consumer Request for a period covering twelve (12)
months and for no more than twice in a twelve-month period.  Headspace Health
reserves the right to extend the response time by an additional forty-five (45)
days when reasonably necessary and provided consumer notification of the
extension is made within the first forty-five (45) days.

These rights are subject to various exclusions and exceptions under California
law and other applicable laws. In addition, if we are unable to verify your
identity to a degree of certainty as required by the CCPA through any reasonable
method, we will state that we are unable to verify in a written response to you
along with a reason as to why there is no reasonable method by which we can
verify your identity. 

Direct marketing by third parties.  Headspace Health does not disclose personal
information to third parties for their own direct marketing purposes. However,
California residents additionally have the right to request information
regarding such practices under California’s “Shine the Light” law. If you are a
California resident and would like to inquire further, please email
help@headspace.com.

We will continue to update our business practices as direct regulatory guidance
becomes available.  

 6. Notice of Right To Opt-Out

As detailed in Section 10(d) above, Headspace Health does not “sell” personal
information to third parties for monetary or other valuable consideration as
that term is defined by the CCPA as amended by the CPRA. However, Headspace
Health does “share” personal information with third parties for purposes of
cross-context behavioral advertising, as that term is defined by the CCPA.

If you wish to opt-out of the “sharing” of the limited data that is gathered
when you visit our Platform for purposes of cross-context behavioral
advertising, please visit the Cookie Policy and click “opt-out of marketing /
analytics cookies” at the bottom of the page. Doing so will erase all current
marketing cookies and disable the placement of future marketing cookies.

   our legitimate interest in undertaking marketing activities to offer products
   or services that may be of interest to you.
 * For risk management purposes, including compliance with our legal and

 2. Your privacy rights

In certain circumstances, individuals located within the EEA and UK may have the
