If you do not wish to receive non-transactional e-mails from us, email us at support@safehausgroup.com to opt out or click the link in the email to “unsubscribe.” Your request to opt out will not affect our ability to send you push notifications and/or transactional emails relating to your interactions on a set, location, or worksite and/or potential exposure to coronavirus or others who have tested positive for COVID-19.

Please note that certain of your Personal Information, such as your name or other basic identifying information, may remain in our database even after a deletion request in order to maintain the integrity and historical record of our database and systems, or to comply with applicable laws and regulations.
5. Children’s Privacy
The App is not intended for use by children under the age of 16. We do not request, or knowingly collect, any personally identifiable information from children under the age of 16. If you are the parent or guardian of a child under 16 who you believe has provided their information to us, please contact us at support@safehausgroup.com to request the deletion of that information.
6. Do Not Track Disclosures
Do Not Track (“DNT”) is a web browser setting that requests that a web application disable its tracking of an individual user. When you choose to turn on the DNT setting in your browser, your browser sends a special signal to websites, analytics companies, ad networks, plug in providers, and other web services you encounter while browsing to stop tracking your activity. Various third parties are developing or have developed signals or other mechanisms for the expression of consumer choice regarding the collection of information about an individual consumer’s online activities over time and across third-party websites or online services (e.g., browser do not track signals), but there is no universally-agreed upon standard for what a company should do when it detects a DNT signal. Currently, we do not monitor or take any action with respect to these signals or other mechanisms. You can learn more about Do Not Track here.
7. HIPAA Compliance
Under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), we are required to disclose to you that we will have temporary access to your health information – specifically, a negative COVID-19 test – but will only use such information to determine your eligibility to enter a location or event safely. We will not store this information on our servers. We will disclose this information only as stated above in the “When We Disclose Information” section.
8. Updating Personal Information
We prefer to keep your Personal Information accurate and up to date. If you would like to change your contact information, please make appropriate changes in the App or contact us at support@safehausgroup.com. We will make good faith efforts to make requested changes in our active databases as soon as reasonably practicable (but we may retain prior information as business records).
9. Links
For your convenience, the App and this Privacy Policy may contain links to other websites. Safe Haus is not responsible for the privacy practices, advertising, products, services, or the content of such other websites. None of the links on the App should be deemed to imply that Safe Haus endorses or has any affiliation with the links. Please see our Terms of Service for more information.
10. Security
Safe Haus uses enterprise-grade security and regular audits to ensure that we are always protected. We undergo regular penetration testing and security reviews designed to be SOC 2 compliant. However, no data transmission over the Internet, mobile networks, wireless transmission, or electronic storage of information can be guaranteed 100% secure. As a result, we cannot guarantee or warrant the security of any information you transmit to or from the App, and you provide us with your information at your own risk.
