Introduction

At Spaulding Medical, we respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal information.  Spaulding Medical strives to manage personal information in a manner that is consistent with the laws of the countries in which we do business.  We have created this privacy policy to inform you of the personal information that we may collect about you as well as how and why we collect this information.

Scope

This policy applies to all people who provide information to Spaulding Medical including employees, customers, website users, and Spaulding software system users. This policy describes how Spaulding Medical collects and uses personal information to complete everyday business operations.

This policy does not include practices from third parties. Any links on our website for external webpages are not under the control of or endorsed by Spaulding Medical. If you follow a link to any of these websites, please note that they have their own privacy policies, which should be reviewed prior to submitting any personal data to those sites.

Information We Collect

All information collected by Spaulding Medical is provided by you. This data is collected when you apply for a job, request a trial, submit feedback, purchase goods and services, or otherwise actively send us information via our website, phone, or email. Information collected may include, but is not limited to, your first and last name, email address, phone number, company name, and any other data provided. It is important to note that we collect the minimum data required to operate our business. Additional data may be collected when using the Spaulding Medical device and associated software systems.

It is assumed that by providing us with this information, you are consenting to its processing. No data will be collected without your knowledge or consent.

Information Use and Integrity

Data Use

Spaulding Medical will use the personal information and data in ways that are compatible with the purpose for which they were collected. Data is typically used for contact purposes but may also be used to set up user accounts or employee profiles, if applicable.

If data is to be used for a purpose other than its original intent, you will be notified and requested to provide consent prior to any further processing.

You may request to stop all processing at any time. Data will be removed and no longer processed so long as it is not required as part of a contractual or legal obligation. If applicable, data may be anonymized or pseudonymized such that it is no longer recognized as your information.

Data Corrections

Spaulding Medical strives to maintain current and accurate records. Contact Spaulding Medical to rectify any inaccurate data. We may also request periodic updates to ensure our records are correct.

Data Sharing

Your data may be shared with third parties (refer to Section 8) as these third parties provide services to us and may process information for us. We reserve the right to use or disclose your personal information if required by law, or if we reasonably believe that such actions are necessary to protect our rights, your safety, or the safety of others. All applicable laws and regulations will be followed when handling and sharing personal data.

Data Access

Please contact us with any requests to view your personal data stored by Spaulding Medical.

Data Retention and Deletion

Data collected by Spaulding Medical is only retained for the purposes described above and is retained for as long as we consider it to be potentially useful or required for legal purposes. At any time, you may request to have your information removed from our system. Data will be removed so long as it is not required as part of a contractual or legal obligation. If applicable, data may be anonymized or pseudonymized such that it is no longer recognized as your information.

Limitations

Such rights of objection, correction, access, and deletion are subject to certain limitations. Individual requests will be completed within the time allotted by relevant regulations starting with Spaulding Medical confirming the request. Where permitted, charges may apply, which will be determined by Spaulding Medical and communicated upfront.

Spaulding Electrocardiograph, Client Application, and WebECG Use

Overview

Policies outlined in Sections 3 and 4 still apply but use of our hardware and software systems may require further data collection and processing.

Our system works such that an electrocardiogram (ECG) is recorded using our electrocardiograph device (Spaulding Electrocardiograph) and software application (Client Application). This information is then transferred to our cloud-based web application (WebECG) for automatic interpretation and is available for viewing by a certified cardiologist for final interpretation. A paper electrocardiogram may also be provided to Spaulding Medical for upload into the cloud-based system.

User Information

To create a user account, Spaulding Medical requests a full name and email address. We will request consent when collecting this information and it is used solely for the purposes of creating an account and setting up requested email notifications.

When acquiring an ECG, the Client Application will store the GPS location for the current site collecting the data if permissions are granted to the application. This feature may be enabled or disabled at any time in your mobile device system settings (i.e. phone, tablet, laptop, etc.); refer to the applicable owner’s manual for instructions.   

Patient/Subject Information

A minimum of birth year and gender are collected as they are required to perform an accurate ECG interpretation. Other information may be collected such as full birthdate and initials, but this is determined by the site, not Spaulding Medical.

Data collected from the Patient/Subject will be used to interpret the ECG and provide a diagnosis. This data may be shared with a certified cardiologist to perform this analysis or used to create reports. All data will be managed in a confidential manner and follow applicable laws and regulations.

It is the responsibility of the applicable site to obtain informed consent from the Patient/Subject prior to collecting the personal information and acquiring and ECG. Any information provided to Spaulding Medical will be treated in a confidential manner and follow the policies outlined within this document.

Security

Spaulding Medical seeks to use reasonable security measures to help protect your personal data from loss, misuse, and alteration. Any transmission of your data is at your own risk as the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. We will, however, do our best to protect your personal data from unauthorized access.

By providing your email address to Spaulding Medical, you acknowledge and agree that we may notify you via email in the event of a security breach involving your personal information.
