as "Teladoc", "we", "us", or "our"), makes certain telehealth related
information available to you and/or facilitates your access to telemedicine,
chronic condition management, and expert medical services ("Teladoc Services").

This Privacy Policy applies to visitors of the following publicly available
websites: www.teladoc.com, www.bestdoctors.com, www.askbestdoctors.com,
www.healthiestyou.com, www.teladochealth.com, www.mystrength.com,
www.livongo.com, www.intouchhealth.com and the publicly available associated
domains and mobile applications owned and operated by Teladoc (collectively, the
"Websites"). For the purposes of this Disclaimer, "you" and "your" means you as
the visitor of the Websites.

Scope of this Web and Mobile Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy describes the types of Personal Information we collect from
visitors of our public Websites and our practices for using, maintaining,
sharing, and protecting it. It also describes the rights and choices you may
have with respect to your Personal Information and how you may contact us.

This Privacy Policy does not apply to information collected from visitors who
register and log-in ("Members") to the password-protected and secure portions of
our sites, including login pages and registration pages ("Secure Platforms").
The Secure Platforms allow eligible Members to use Teladoc Services. All
information collected and stored by Teladoc or added by our Members into such
Secure Platforms is considered Protected Health Information ("PHI") and/or
medical information and is governed by laws that apply to that information, for
example the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). How
Teladoc uses and discloses such PHI is in accordance with the Teladoc Health
Notice of Privacy Practices. To understand how we use and disclose PHI, for
example data you have consented to import from HealthKit into the Secure
Platform, you should review our Notice of Privacy Practices. Teladoc will not
use or disclose information received from HealthKit for advertising, marketing,
or other use-based data mining purposes and will not combine it with other data
and will not sell it. The Notice of Privacy Practices (and not this Privacy
Policy) also applies to Personal Information collected on our Websites if
specific symptoms or health conditions is also collected, as such information
may be considered PHI under HIPAA.

This Privacy Policy also does not apply to the collection and use of certain
employment-related information. If you are a current or former Teladoc job
applicant, employee, owner, director, officer, or contractor, please contact us
at privacy@teladochealth.com for the appropriate notice.

California and Virginia residents should read the information available in
Section 12 below about the categories of personal information to be collected
from them and the purposes for which the personal information will be used.

This Privacy Policy is not a contract and does not create any contractual rights
or obligations.

1. TYPES OF PERSONAL INFORMATION WE COLLECT

While using our Websites, you may provide us with certain information about you.
We or our advertising partners also may automatically collect information
through the use of cookies and other tracking technologies (see below).

Personal Information that we collect through your use of the Websites may
include IP Address, Device ID, and online identifier. We may use that Personal
Information and link it to Internet or other electronic network activity
information, and we may draw inferences about you from the information we
collect. We may also collect your name, title, business contact information,
phone number, date of birth, state, country, zip code, your health plan, email
address or login identification information only if you provide such information
directly to us when you begin registration to use a Secure Platform or complete
a web form seeking more information. If you are a member this may be considered
PHI and governed by our Notice of Privacy Practices and not this Privacy Policy.


2. HOW WE COLLECT PERSONAL INFORMATION

We may collect Personal Information using the following methods:

 * Directly from you when you provide it to us (such as information you enter
   into web forms, inquiries, responses, activity on the Websites, and during
   registration to use a Secure Platform).
 * From third parties, such as analytics and email marketing service providers.
 * Automatically through tracking technologies such as cookies, web beacons
   (also known as pixels) and log files, including over time and across our own
   and third-party websites or other online services.

"Cookies" are small files that a website stores on a user's computer or device.
The Websites may use cookies for various purposes, including to keep the
information you enter on multiple pages together. Some of the cookies we use are
"session" cookies, meaning that they are automatically deleted from your hard
drive after you close your browser at the end of your session. Session cookies
are used to optimize performance of the Websites and to limit the amount of
redundant data that is downloaded during a single session. We also may use
"persistent" cookies, which remain on your computer or device unless deleted by
you (or by your browser settings). We may use persistent cookies for various
purposes, such as statistical analysis of performance to ensure the ongoing
quality of our services. We and third parties may use session and persistent
cookies for analytics and advertising purposes, as described herein. Most web
browsers automatically accept cookies, but you may set your browser to block
certain cookies (see below). As required under applicable laws, we will obtain
your consent necessary for utilizing cookies or similar tracking technologies.

Our Websites may use Google Analytics, a vendor's service that uses cookies, web
beacons, web pixels and/or similar technology to collect and store information
about you. You can learn more about Google Analytics' privacy policy and ways to
opt out from Google Analytics tracking by visiting Google Analytics' website.

Our Websites may use Adobe's analytics and on-site personalization services,
which use cookies, web beacons, web pixels and/or similar technology to collect
and store information about you or your device or browser. You can learn more
about how Adobe may handle information collected through our use of its
services, and your options for controlling this activity, by visiting Adobe's
website.

For more information about how we use Personal Information collected through
tracking technologies and the ways you may be able to manage it, see below.


3. HOW WE USE YOUR INFORMATION

We may use your Personal Information for the following purposes:

 * Operate, maintain, supervise, administer, and enhance the Websites, including
   monitoring and analyzing the effectiveness of content on the Websites,
   aggregate site usage data, and other usage of the Websites such as checking
   your eligibility and assisting you in completing the registration process.
 * Provide you with a tailored and user-friendly experience as you navigate our
   Websites.
 * Promote and market our Websites to you.
 * To complete the activity you specifically asked for, e.g., register on a
   Secure Platform, obtain more information, request a demo, or request an RFP.
 * Conduct research on users' demographics, interests, and behavior based upon
   information provided during use of our Websites.
 * Aggregate information for analytics and reporting.
 * Respond to law enforcement requests and court orders and legal process and
   carry out our legal and contractual obligations and enforce our rights.
 * Authenticate use, detect potential fraudulent use, and otherwise maintain the
   security of the Websites and safety of users.
 * Develop, test, improve, and demonstrate the Websites.
 * Any other purpose with your consent.


4. HOW WE SHARE YOUR INFORMATION

We may share Personal Information with third parties including service providers
in certain circumstances or for certain purposes, including:

 * For business purposes. We may share your Personal Information with vendors
   and service providers, including our data hosting and data storage partners,
   analytics and advertising providers, technology services and support, and
   data security. We also may share Personal Information with professional
   advisors, such as auditors, law firms, and accounting firms. We may disclose
   your name, email address, date of birth, phone number, and address if you
   provided it to us via a form on the website or during an incomplete or failed
   registration to Service Providers.
 * With your direction or consent. We may share your Personal Information with
   third parties if you request or direct us to do so. This includes your use of
   social media widgets on our Websites.
 * With affiliates within our corporate group. We may share your Personal
   Information with any subsidiaries or affiliates within our corporate group.
 * Compliance with law. We may share your Personal Information to comply with
   applicable law or any obligations thereunder, including cooperation with law
   enforcement, judicial orders, and regulatory inquiries.
 * In the context of a transaction. We may share your Personal Information in
   connection with an asset sale, merger, bankruptcy, or other business
   transaction.
 * For other business reasons. We may share your Personal Information to enforce
   any applicable Legal Disclaimer, and to ensure the safety and security of the
   Websites and/or our users.
 * For advertising. Using cookies and web beacons, we may disclose Personal
   Information regarding your activity on our Websites to third-party
   advertising partners to optimize marketing. See Section 7 for additional
   details.

We also may disclose deidentified information. Note that if you make any
Personal Information publicly available on the Websites, anyone may see and use
such information.


5. SOCIAL FEATURES

Certain features of the Websites permit you to initiate interactions between the
Websites and third-party services or platforms, such as social networks ("Social
Features"). Social Features include features that allow you to click and access
Teladoc's pages on certain third-party platforms, such as Facebook, Twitter and
LinkedIn as applicable, and from there to "like" or "share" our content on those
platforms. Use of Social Features may entail a third party's collection and/or
use of your data. If you use Social Features or similar third-party services,
information you post or otherwise make accessible may be publicly displayed by
the third-party service you are using. Both Teladoc and the third party may have
access to information about you and your use of both the Websites and the
third-party service. Teladoc has no control over and is not responsible for the
privacy practices of such third parties. This Privacy Policy does not apply to
the extent Teladoc does not own or control any linked websites or features you
visit or use. We recommend that you familiarize yourself with the privacy
practices of those third parties.


6. THIRD PARTY WEBSITES AND LINKS

Our Websites may contain links to other online platforms operated by third
parties. We do not control such other online platforms and are not responsible
for their content, their privacy policies, or their use of your information.
Information you provide on public or semi-public venues, including information
you share on third-party social networking platforms (such as Facebook, LinkedIn
or Twitter) may also be viewable by other users of the Websites and/or users of
those third-party online platforms without limitation as to its use by us or by
a third party. Our inclusion of such links does not, by itself, imply any
endorsement of the content on such platforms or of their owners or operators
except as disclosed on the Websites. We expressly disclaim any and all liability
for the actions of third parties, including but without limitation to actions
relating to the use and/or disclosure of Personal Information by third parties.
Any information submitted by you directly to these third parties is subject to
that third party's privacy policy.


7. COOKIES AND INFORMATION USED FOR ADVERTISING

As discussed above, on our Websites we may collect and disclose Personal
Information about your online activities for use in providing you with
advertising about products and services tailored to your individual interests.
This section of our Privacy Policy provides details and explains how to exercise
your choices. You may see certain ads on other websites because we participate
in advertising networks. Ad networks allow us to target our messaging to users
through demographic, interest-based and contextual means. These networks track
your online activities over time by collecting information through automated
means, including through the use of cookies, web server logs, and web beacons
(also known as pixels). The networks use this information to show you
advertisements that may be tailored to your individual interests. The
information our ad networks may collect includes information about your visits
to websites that participate in the relevant advertising networks, such as the
webpages or advertisements you view and the actions you take on the websites.
This data collection takes place both on our Websites and on third-party
websites that participate in the ad networks. This process also helps us track
the effectiveness of our marketing efforts.

You may disable or delete browser cookies through your browser settings. Cookies
generally are easy to disable or delete, but the method varies between browsers.
If you disable or delete cookies, or if you are running third-party software
that intercepts or deletes cookies, please note that some parts or functionality
of our Websites may not work properly.

Each type of web browser offers ways to restrict and delete cookies. For more
information on how to manage cookies visit the appropriate link below.

Microsoft Internet Explorer
Microsoft Edge
Mozilla Firefox
Google Chrome
Apple Safari

You can opt out of third parties collecting your Personal Information for
targeted advertising purposes in the United States by visiting the National
Advertising Initiative's (NAI) opt-out page and the Digital Advertising
Alliance's (DAA) opt-out page.

Your browser settings also may allow you to transmit a "Do Not Track" signal
when you visit various websites. Some of the Websites may not be configured to
respond to "Do Not Track" signals received from browsers. To learn more about
"Do Not Track" signals, you can visit here.

Finally, Teladoc Health maintains a cookie preference center which allows you to
customize your cookie preferences when visiting the Websites.

If you have further questions regarding the specific information about you that
we process or retain, as well as your choices regarding our collection and use
practices, please contact us using the information listed below.


8. CHILDREN'S PRIVACY

Our Websites are not intended for children under 13 years of age, and we do not
knowingly collect or sell Personal Information from children under 13. If you
are under 13, do not use or provide any information on these Websites without
your parent first providing consent.. If you are the parent or guardian of a
child under 13 years of age whom you believe might have provided us with their
Personal Information, you may contact us using the below information to request
that it be deleted.


9. SECURITY OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

We take steps to secure Personal Information through administrative, technical,
and physical safeguards designed to protect against the risk of accidental,
unlawful, or unauthorized destruction, loss, alteration, access, disclosure, or
use. Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee the security of information transmitted
through the Internet, and where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a
password, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential.


10. RETENTION OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

We generally retain records only as long as necessary and as required for our
business operations, for archival purposes, and/or to satisfy legal
requirements. When determining the appropriate retention period for Personal
Information, we take into account various criteria, such as the amount, nature,
and sensitivity of the Personal Information; potential risk of harm from
unauthorized use or disclosure; purposes for which we process your Personal
Information; whether we can achieve those purposes through other means; and
business operations and legal requirements. Because we maintain our Websites to
protect from accidental or malicious loss and destruction, residual copies of
your Personal Information may be retained in our backup and archival systems for
a limited period of time, after which the information will be automatically
deleted or put beyond use where deletion is not possible.


11. INTERNATIONAL USERS

The Websites are controlled and operated by us from the United States and are
not intended to subject us to the laws or jurisdiction of any state, country or
territory other than that of the United States. Any information you provide to
us through use of our Websites may be stored and processed, transferred between

the same level of protection of personal data as the one in which you reside.

Privacy Policy regardless of where your Personal Information is stored/accessed.
