Reviving Mind recognizes that California has articulated specific privacy rights of Reviving Mind Users in that State. California Users should understand that Reviving Mind does not sell User data to third parties. Further, Reviving Mind is a medical records retention company. As such, almost all User data is kept in encrypted storage as a medical record, including all User created transcripts. State Law requires Reviving Mind to retain such records for at least seven years. The CCPA does not generally apply to medical information governed by the California Confidentiality of Medical Information Act (CMIA) or protected health information collected by a covered entity or business associate governed by the privacy, security, and breach notification rules of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Act of 2009.
Pursuant to Section 1798.83 of the California Civil Code, residents of California have the right to request, once a year, if Reviving Mind have shared their personal information (non-medical record data only) with other companies for direct marketing purposes during the preceding calendar year. This is California’s “Shine-the-Light Law.” To request a copy of the information disclosure provided by Reviving Mind, please contact us on www.revivingmind.com at the “contact us” link on the website. Please allow reasonable time for a response.

Privacy in International Use and the GDPR
The Reviving Mind Platform advises both its Client/Users and practicing Platform Providers to be aware of and respect and comply with the local laws of any international based Client. Reviving Mind is cognizant and respects the formal promulgation of the existing European Union (EU) data privacy regulations. The General Data Protection Regulation 2016/679 is a regulation in EU law on data protection and privacy for all individuals within the European Union and the European Economic Area. It also addresses the export of personal data outside the EU and EEA and is commonly referred to as “GDPR.” Reviving Mind has always respected our Client’s Privacy (see our Privacy Policy) and we were already a HIPAA certified platform following stringent data privacy rules.
The basic tenants of the promulgated GDPR regulations include, but are not limited to the following:
Disclosure when you sell, transfer or third party marketing of User’s data: As outlined in this Terms of Use, Reviving Mind does not sell or transfer Client data and any marketing efforts are focused solely on internal information updates to our registered Clients.
Access to collected data: At Reviving Mind, you already have the ability to access your shared data (Your personal information, your emergency contact information and all your interactions with your Providers) and use it as you wish.
Clear Consent: At Reviving Mind our Terms of Use are clear on what consent we seek with regards to your data and prior to your engagement with your Provider, you review and agree to a further “informed consent” process.Security: At Reviving Mind we have encrypted our data from day one and has always been stored all Private Health Information with full HIPAA compliance and in an anonymized form as required by the GDPR.
Notice/Audit: At Reviving Mind, we will provide our Clients notice of any data breach and we employ a full time security Officer, as well as engaging a third party security firm to periodically audit both or code and technology security as well as our HIPAA policies and procedures around data security.
Finally, dependent of your EU country or origin, the GDPR considers what was previously termed the right “to forget” or request deletion of your data once you cease using a application or site. This tenant of the GDPR may conflict with applicable medical records retention laws. In the United States, this requires at least seven years of retention, which is common around the world and is sometime up to ten years or more in certain countries. So, unlike some data platforms, Reviving Mind cannot erase private health data directly upon a Client’s request, as it may be considered essential for other medical file retention purposes. Applicable individual country medical retention laws are generally considered an acceptable exception to the GDPR regulations regarding the right to deletion of certain data.
