We want to be transparent with you about how we collect and use your Personal Data in making available our platform, app and website (“Site”) and tell you about your privacy rights and how the law protects you. With that in mind, this Privacy Policy is designed to describe: Who we are and how to contact us Your rights relating to your Personal Data Marketing communications preferences What Personal Data we collect How we use your Personal Data and why What happens when you do not provide necessary Personal Data? Personal Data from Third Party Sources How we use cookies and other tracking or profiling technologies Who we share your Personal Data with How we keep your Personal Data secure How long we store your Personal Data Our policy on children Third party links This Privacy Policy aims to give you information on how Unmind collects and processes your Personal Data through your use of this Site, including any data you may provide through this Site. The Privacy Policy is intended to meet our duties of Transparency under the “General Data Protection Regulation” or “GDPR”. We will post any modifications or changes to this Privacy Policy on this page. Who we are and how to contact us Who we are ‍Unmind Ltd is the Controller (for the purposes of the GDPR) of your Personal Data (referred to as either “Unmind”, “we”, “us” or “our” in this Privacy Policy). Unmind Ltd is a company registered in England & Wales and our company registration number is 10310694. Our registered head office and address is: 180 Borough High Street, London, England, SE1 1LB. How to contact us ‍You can contact us by emailing: privacy@unmind.com. Our Data Protection Officer ‍ The GDPR requires us to appoint a “Data Protection Officer”, this is a person who is responsible for overseeing and advising us in relation to our compliance with the GDPR (including compliance with the practices described in this Privacy Policy). If you want to contact our Data Protection Officer directly, you can email: privacy@unmind.com. Your rights relating to your Personal Data Your rights in connection with your Personal Data Under certain circumstances, by law you have the right to: Request access to your Personal Data. This enables you to receive a copy of the Personal Data we hold about you and to check that we are lawfully processing it. Request correction of the Personal Data that we hold about you. This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate information we hold about you corrected. Request erasure of your Personal Data. This enables you to ask us to delete or remove Personal Data where there is no good reason for us continuing to process it. You also have the right to ask us to delete or remove your Personal Data where you have exercised your right to object to processing (see below). Object to processing of your Personal Data. This right exists where we are relying on a Legitimate Interest as the legal basis for our processing and there is something about your particular situation, which makes you want to object to processing on this ground. You also have the right to object where we are processing your Personal Data for direct marketing purposes. Request the restriction of processing of your Personal Data. This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of Personal Data about you, for example, if you want us to establish its accuracy or the reason for processing it. Request the transfer of your Personal Data. We will provide to you, or a third party you have chosen, your Personal Data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format. Note that this right only applies to automated information which you initially provided consent for us to use or where we used the information to perform a contract with you. Withdraw consent. This right only exists where we are relying on consent to process your Personal Data (“Consent Withdrawal”). If you withdraw your consent, we may not be able to provide you with access to the certain specific functionalities of our Site. We will advise you if this is the case at the time you withdraw your consent. ‍ ‍How to exercise your rights If you want to exercise any of the rights described above, please contact us using the contact details shown here. Typically, you will not have to pay a fee to access your Personal Data (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, except in relation to Consent Withdrawal, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive, or, we may refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances. We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your Personal Data (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is a security measure to ensure that Personal Data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. We may also contact you to ask you for further information in relation to your request to speed up our response. We try to respond to all legitimate requests within one month. Occasionally it may take us longer than a month if your request is particularly complex or you have made a number of requests. In this case, we will notify you and keep you updated. Complaints If you would like to make a complaint regarding this Privacy Policy or our practices in relation to your Personal Data, please contact us at: privacy@unmind.com. We will reply to your complaint as soon as we can. If you feel that your complaint has not been adequately resolved, please note that the GDPR gives you the right to contact your local data protection supervisory authority, which for the UK, is the Information Commissioner’s Office. Marketing communications preferences If you sign up to receive email newsletters or promotional materials from us, we will use the information you give us to provide the communications you have authorised. You can ask us to stop sending you marketing messages at any time by following the opt-out links on any marketing message sent to you or emailing us direct at privacy@unmind.com to adjust your marketing preferences. If you no longer wish to receive mobile push notifications, you may turn them off at the device level. Where you opt out of receiving these marketing messages, this will not apply to service correspondence that helps you administer your account or receive notifications about your account or allows us to update you when our Site changes. What Personal Data we collect All the Personal Data we collect, both from you and from third parties about you, is outlined in the table below. Before you read that table, it might be useful to explain what “Personal Data” is. The GDPR definition of Personal Data can be found here. Essentially, it boils down to: information about an individual from which that individual is either directly identified or can be identified. It does not include ‘anonymous data’ (i.e., information where the identity of individual has been permanently removed). However, it does include ‘indirect identifiers’ or ‘pseudonymous data’ (i.e., information which alone doesn’t identify an individual but, when combined with certain additional and reasonably accessible information, could be attributed to a particular person). Category of personal data collected Identity Data Contact Data Marketing and Communications Data Behavioural Data Technical Data User-Generated Data What it means At this time we only collect the following items of PII data from our users: First name, last Name, email address, location*, department/team*, employee number* (or similar identifier provided by an employer if required). *This information is collected depending on organisational requirements. Email address only. Your preferences in receiving marketing from us and your communication preferences. Inferred or assumed information relating to your behaviour and interests, based on your activity on the Unmind platform. This is most often collated and grouped into “segments” (e.g. there may be a segment for women, living in London, who enjoy mindfulness). Internet protocol (IP) address, your login data, browser type and version, time zone setting and location, browser plug-in types and versions, operating system and platform and other technology on the devices you use to access this website or use our services. Personal Data you may include in your user-generated content (i.e. information and content that you submit to the Site), for instance when you fill in the comments box of the “Check-In” form, when you send a Praise to someone and personalise the message, or in dialogue with Zeno (our “chatbot” designed to guide you through the Site and answer your questions). ‍ Aggregated Data ‍We also collect, use, and share “Aggregated Data'' such as statistical or demographic data for any purpose. Aggregated Data may be derived from your Personal Data, but once in aggregated form it will not constitute Personal Data for the purposes of the GDPR as this data does not directly or indirectly reveal your identity. For example, we may aggregate your Behavioural Data to calculate the percentage of users accessing a specific Site feature, or to better understand whether and how use of our Site may improve your wellbeing. However, if we combine or connect Aggregated Data with your Personal Data so that it can directly or indirectly identify you, we treat the combined data as Personal Data which will be used in accordance with this Privacy Policy. Some non-exhaustive examples of why we may share Aggregated Data (i.e. anonymous data) is to demonstrate the average wellbeing of different sub-groups, identify patterns of poor sleep across varying geographic locations, and extrapolate whether use of the Site is more beneficial for some populations compared to others. In no scenario will the sharing of Aggregated Data contain personal information related to your Unmind account or any personally identifiable User Generated Data. We also use such Aggregated Data to better understand our end-users, to develop the Unmind offering, to create and distribute white papers, to conduct and publish research, and to share the data with health professionals and academics to improve Unmind and other services relating to mental wellbeing ‍Special Categories of Personal Data Through our Site, and the services we offer, we may collect some “Special Categories of Personal Data” and information about you, if you provide such data in your User Generated Data*. Special Categories of Personal Data are data that include details about your race or ethnicity, religious or philosophical beliefs, sex life, sexual orientation, political opinions, trade union membership, information about your health and genetic and biometric data. Since you are able to upload details of your mood or mental state on the Site (e.g. through the “Check-In” option), the data you provide us may contain data relating to your health or other Special Categories of Personal Data. You do not have to submit such data in order to use the Unmind Site and access the content. You will still be able to access the content provided on the Unmind Site and use the Site and Unmind services, even if you do not provide such Special Categories of Personal Data. We may also anonymise your Special Categories of Personal Data in an Aggregated Data format to better understand our end-users, to develop the Unmind offering, to create and distribute white papers, to conduct and publish research, and to share the data with health professionals and academics to improve Unmind and other services relating to mental wellbeing. When sharing Aggregated Data we do not share any of your Personal Data (including any Special Categories of Personal Data). None of your Personal Data (including Special Categories of Personal Data) will ever be shared with your employer or any such organisation with whom you are similarly affiliated (e.g. academic institution, governing body). We do not collect any information about criminal convictions and offences. *User Generated Data refers to areas of the Unmind platform where users are able to input free text into the platform for users to track their own mood or mental well being. We will never specifically ask for special category data to be inputted. How we use your Personal Data and why We will only use your Personal Data for the purposes for which we collected it as listed below, unless we reasonably consider that we need to use it for another reason and that reason is compatible with the original purpose. If we need to use your Personal Data for an unrelated purpose, we will update this Privacy Policy and we will explain the legal basis which allows us to do so. What is our “legal basis” for processing your Personal Data? In respect of each of the purposes for which we use your Personal Data, the GDPR requires us to ensure that we have a “legal basis” for that use. Most commonly, we will rely on one of the following legal bases: Where we need to perform a contract we are about to enter into or have entered into with you (“Contractual Necessity”). Where it is necessary for our legitimate interests and your interests and fundamental rights do not override those interests (“Legitimate Interests”). More detail about the specific legitimate interests pursued in respect of each Purpose we use your Personal Data for is set out in the table below. Where we need to comply with a legal or regulatory obligation (“Compliance with Law”). Where we have your specific consent to carry out the processing for the Purpose in question (“Consent”). Different grounds than those set out above are required by the GDPR to allow us to process your Special Categories of Personal Data. Most commonly, we will rely on one of the following grounds: Where the processing is necessary for the purposes of preventive or occupational medicine, the assessment of the working capacity of employees, medical diagnosis, the provision of health or social care or treatment, or pursuant to a contract with a health professional (“Healthcare Ground”). We will only rely upon the Healthcare Ground where the processing is done by, or under the responsibility of, a clinical psychologist (or other mental health professional subject to obligations of professional secrecy) and in accordance with English laws and/or rules established by a national competent body. Where the processing is necessary to enable you to exercise your right to work in a safe workplace and to enable your employer’s reciprocal duty to provide a safe workplace to their employees (“Employment Ground”). Where the processing is necessary for scientific research or statistical purposes, as further explained in the “Aggregated Data” section above (“Research Ground”). We will always ensure your Personal Data is anonymised when using it for research purposes. Where we have your explicit and specific consent to carry out the processing for the Purpose in question (“Explicit Consent”). Generally, we do not rely on your Consent (or Explicit Consent) as a legal basis for using your Personal Data (including your Special Categories of Personal Data) other than in the context of direct marketing communications. We have set out below, in a table format, the legal bases we rely on in respect of the relevant Purposes for which we use your Personal Data.

What happens when you do not provide necessary Personal Data? Where we need to process your Personal Data either to comply with law, or to perform the terms of a contract we have with you and you fail to provide that data when requested, we may not be able to perform the contract we have or are trying to enter into with you (for example, to provide you with the functionalities of the Site). In this case, we may have to stop you from using our Site or revoke your Unmind account but we will notify you if this is the case at the time. Personal Data from Third Party Sources In addition to the Personal Data that we collect directly from you (as described in the section immediately above this one), we also collect certain of your Personal Data from third party sources.

Data transfers Some of the third parties with whom we may share your Personal Data are based outside the UK and European Economic Area (“Europe”) so their processing of your Personal Data will involve a transfer of data to countries based outside of Europe.

Whenever we transfer your Personal Data out of Europe, we ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring at least one of the following safeguards is implemented: We may transfer your Personal Data to countries that have been deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for Personal Data by the European Commission. For further details, see European Commission: Adequacy of the protection of Personal Data in non-EU countries. Where we use service providers outside Europe, we may use specific contracts approved by the European Commission, which give Personal Data the same protection it has in Europe.

We have put in place procedures to deal with any actual or suspected Personal Data breach. In the event of any such breach, we have systems in place to work with applicable regulators.
