3. How We Share Your Information
We share your data only with trusted service providers who process it on our behalf:
- Supabase: Secure database and authentication infrastructure. Data is stored on servers in Canada and/or the United States with SOC 2 compliance.

- Twilio: WhatsApp message delivery infrastructure.
All third-party service providers are contractually bound to process your data only as directed by us and to maintain appropriate security standards.
We may disclose your information if required by law, court order, or to protect the rights, safety, or property of Ryn Health Inc. or others.
4. Data Storage and Security
Your data is stored on Supabase infrastructure located in Canada and/or the United States. We implement industry-standard security measures including:
- Encryption of data in transit (TLS/HTTPS) and at rest.
- Row-level security policies limiting data access to authenticated account owners.
- Service-role authentication for server-side operations.
- Regular security reviews and dependency updates.
No system is 100% secure. If you believe your account has been compromised, contact us immediately at hi@rynhealth.com.
5. Your Rights Under PIPEDA
As a Canadian privacy law, PIPEDA grants you the following rights regarding your personal information:
- Access: You have the right to request a copy of the personal information we hold about you. Use the "Export Data" feature in your account settings for an immediate download.
- Correction: You have the right to request correction of inaccurate information. Update your profile in account settings or contact us.
- Withdrawal of consent: You may withdraw your consent to the collection and processing of your health data at any time. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing prior to withdrawal.
- Deletion: You have the right to request deletion of your personal information. Use the "Delete Account" feature in account settings, which permanently removes all your data from our systems.
- Complaint: If you believe we have violated PIPEDA, you may file a complaint with the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada at priv.gc.ca.
All privacy rights are available directly in your account settings. You can also contact us at hi@rynhealth.com to exercise any right. We will respond to requests within 30 days.
6. Data Retention
We retain your personal information for as long as your account is active and for 30 days following cancellation of your subscription, in case you choose to reactivate. After this period, your data is permanently deleted from our systems.
You can request immediate deletion at any time through your account settings or by contacting us. Deletion is irreversible — we cannot recover data after it has been deleted.
Some information may be retained longer if required by law (e.g., financial records for tax compliance) or where we have a legitimate legal obligation to do so.
7. Cookies
We use cookies minimally. The only cookies we set are session authentication cookies necessary for you to remain logged in to the Service. We do not use tracking cookies, advertising cookies, or third-party analytics cookies.
You can disable cookies in your browser settings, but this will prevent you from signing in to the Service.
8. Children's Privacy
The Service is intended for users 18 years of age or older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 18. If you become aware that a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will take steps to delete it.
9. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of material changes by email or by posting a prominent notice in the Service. Your continued use of the Service after the effective date of any change constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
