June, 2021

Somatix, Inc. (“Somatix,” “we” or “us”), the provider of the SmokeBeatTM Smoking cessation monitoring solution and the SafeBeingTM– remote patient monitoring solution (each, a “Solution” and together, the “Solutions”), the Somatix proprietary SERF (Social, Emotional, Rational and Financial) Incentive program, and any other current and future Somatix services and tools (each, a Somatix “Service”), highly values your privacy and has therefore set up this extensive privacy policy to help you better understand your rights and how your information is processed through the Solutions. If you do not agree to this Privacy Policy, please do not use the Solutions or other Somatix Services.

Unless otherwise indicated in a specific section of this Privacy Policy, all sections are applicable to all users of our Solutions and to all Services.

1.  Data You Provide to Us:

a. Registration Process:

In connection with registering for a Solution or Service, you may be requested to provide Somatix with certain personal information such as:

SmokeBeatTM: your email address, name, age, birthday, gender and certain data about your smoking habits.

SafeBeingTM: your email address, name, age, birthday, gender, certain data about your physique and health condition such as mobility, activity levels and details about your designated emergency contacts.

(collectively, the “Personal Information”).

You are under no obligation to provide Personal Information, however, not providing this Personal Information may prevent you from using certain features of the Solutions and other Services.

b. Automatic Data Collection:

The Solution applications: When users download, install and use one of our Solutions applications on their mobile phone or Wearable (as defined below), we automatically gather information, including without limitation, carrier providers, unique device identifiers, geo-location information (if allowed by the user), the types of mobile devices and operating systems accessing the Solutions (collectively, “Mobile Device Data”).

In addition, the Solutions start collecting data from the Wearables (as defined below) once you have installed a Solution application, and communicate this information to the Somatix server system.

For example, the SmokeBeatTM Solution collects information such as your smoking habits and other hand-to-mouth physical gestures. Your smoking habits information may include, among other things, the number of cigarettes you smoke, the number of inhales you make per cigarette, location of your smoking habits, and other social aspects and behavioral aspects of your smoking activities (collectively, “Smoking Habits Information”).

The SafeBeingTM Solution collects information about a user’s Activities of Daily Living (ADL), which includes, information about the user’s liquid consumption habits, medication consumption, walking and sleeping habits and other information with respect to their daily routine (collectively, the “ADL Information”). In order to terminate our data collection, you may remove the Solution application from your mobile device at any time.

c. Smartwatches and Wristbands (the “Wearables”):

The Wearables collect information about your hand-to-mouth gestures as well as other physical information and delivers it to the Solution application. This is done by the application on a continuous basis by receiving and analyzing the data extracted from sensors that exist on the wearable device, such as accelerometers and gyroscopes. If you do not wear the Wearable it cannot collect information about your activities, and thus such information is not conveyed onwards. If you forget your Wearable, you can always input the data manually directly to the Solution application.

d. Data We Collect About Others that You Share with Us:

In order to allow others to view or interact with the Services, such as through a Viewer Account or an Admin. Account (as defined in the Somatix’s Terms of Service) you will be required to provide us with their name, phone number and you may also provide us with their local address and email address. When you share these details with us, you are deemed to have secured all requisite permissions and approvals from such individuals to share such details for the aforesaid purpose.
