Orlivas — Privacy Policy
Version 1.0.0 · Effective 2026-07-11 · Last updated 2026-07-11
The short version. Orlivas exists so caregivers can organize their family's health.
Your family's health information is used only to provide the service to you and the
people you invite. **We do not sell it, we do not use it for advertising, and we do not
use it to train third-party AI models.** You can export or permanently delete it at any
time.
1. Who we are
Orlivas ("Orlivas", "we", "us", "our") is a family health companion operated by
Zagru, part of the Zagru group. Zagru is the **data
controller** for the personal data described here.
- Registered address: postal address available on request at privacy@orlivas.com
- Privacy / data-protection contact: privacy@orlivas.com
- Person in charge of the protection of personal information: our Privacy Contact
- EU/EEA representative (if applicable): privacy@orlivas.com
This policy applies to the Orlivas mobile apps, the Orlivas backend services, and
orlivas.com.
2. What Orlivas does
Orlivas lets a caregiver create a family group, add family members — including
managed profiles for people who never use the app themselves (an elderly parent, a
child, a dependent) — and track medications and dose timelines, vital signs, hydration,
mood/sleep/wellness, symptoms, appointments, health documents, journals and wellness
photos for those members. Invited caregivers see and contribute to the same records
according to their role (Owner, Admin, Caregiver, Member, Viewer).
Health records always belong to a family member and to the family group, not to
an individual login.
3. The data we collect
3.1 Account data
- Email address, name, password (stored only as a salted bcrypt hash), optional phone
number and avatar, preferred language and timezone.
- If you sign in with Google or Apple: the subject and verified email from your
provider's identity token. We never receive your provider password.
- Session tokens and push-notification device tokens.
3.2 Family & health data — special-category data
- Family groups; member profiles (display name, optional legal name, relationship,
optional date of birth, gender, health flags such as "diabetes", dietary preferences).
- Health records entered by you or your caregivers: medications and dose logs
(taken / snoozed / skipped / missed), blood pressure, blood sugar (glucose), weight,
heart rate, hydration, mood, sleep, activity, symptoms, daily wellness check-ins,
notes, goals and appointments.
- Photos and documents you choose to upload (medication-box/blister photos,
prescriptions, lab reports, health documents, photo-journal entries, wellness selfies)
and, where you enable the optional scan feature, the text extracted from them.
This is special-category personal data (health data) under Article 9 GDPR and
"special categories" under the Turkish KVKK. We process it **only because you
deliberately enter it to run your family's care, on the basis of your explicit
consent** (Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR), which you may withdraw at any time by deleting the data
or your account.
3.3 Technical & usage data
- Anonymous usage analytics (screens visited, features used) — **never health
values, never member names**, with entity ids removed from screen paths. You can turn
this off in the app, and we can disable it globally.
- Security logs (login attempts, an audit trail of account actions) to protect accounts.
- If crash reporting is enabled for a release, crash stack traces without personal
identifiers or health data are sent to our error-monitoring processor.
4. Data about family members you add ("managed profiles")
When you add a managed profile or enter health data about another person, **you confirm
that you are entitled to do so** — as their parent or legal guardian, as their carer
with their consent, or with another lawful basis. You are responsible for informing them
(when they are able to understand) that their health information is organized in Orlivas,
and for honoring their wishes if they ask you to remove it. Managed profiles have no
login of their own; the family's account holders control this data together. See the
Children & Dependent Data Notice and the Parent/Guardian Notice.
5. Why we use data, and our legal bases
| Purpose | Data | Legal basis |
|---|---|---|
| Provide the service: store/sync records, compute dose timelines, send the reminders and non-diagnostic alerts you configure | Account, family, health | Contract (Art. 6(1)(b)); health data on explicit consent (Art. 9(2)(a)) |
| Account security: login throttling, session management, audit trail | Account, technical | Legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f)) |
| Transactional email: verification, password reset | Account | Contract |
| Optional AI features (Visual Wellness, AI Insights, AI Assistant) | Health context / wellness photos | Explicit consent — see §6 and the AI Transparency Notice |
| Improve Orlivas via anonymous usage statistics | Usage (no health) | Consent (off per user at any time) |
| Comply with legal obligations (e.g. tax records for purchases) | Billing (no health) | Legal obligation |
We never sell personal data, use health data for advertising or profiling, or allow
a third party to train AI models on your family's records.
6. Optional AI features
Some optional, plan-gated features can use AI: Visual Wellness (appearance scoring
of a selfie), AI Insights (summaries of logged activity) and the AI Assistant
(answers questions using your family's data).
- By default, these run on Orlivas' own servers using a built-in, non-diagnostic
engine, and no health data leaves our systems for AI purposes.
- If we enable an external AI provider (categories: large-language-model / vision-model
providers), the relevant input — a wellness selfie image for Visual Wellness, or a
compact health-activity summary including a member's name for Insights/Assistant —
would be sent to that provider to generate the result shown back to you.
- Where an external AI provider is used on health data, we will obtain your **separate,
explicit consent** first, and you can decline or disable it.
- AI output is non-diagnostic and may be wrong or incomplete; never rely on it for
medical decisions. See the AI Transparency Notice and the **Health & Wellness
Disclaimer**.
7. Who can see your data
- Your family: caregivers you invite see member records according to their role
(Owner, Admin, Caregiver, Member, Viewer). Invites are code-based and expire.
- Our staff: a small operations team may access records only when strictly necessary
to run the service (support, abuse handling, legal obligation), under confidentiality
duties, with actions audit-logged.
- Processors that host or deliver parts of the service under data-processing
agreements:
| Processor | Purpose | Health data? | Location |
|---|---|---|---|
| DigitalOcean, LLC | Hosting, database, encrypted backups | Yes (as host) | our hosting region |
| Google (Firebase Cloud Messaging) | Android push delivery | No (text only) | Global |
| Apple (APNs) | iOS push delivery | No (text only) | Global |
| RevenueCat, Inc. | Subscription/purchase state | No (UUID + purchase state) | USA (SCCs) |
| Functional Software, Inc. (Sentry) | Crash/error monitoring | No (no PII) | USA (SCCs) |
| Google / Apple | Federated sign-in token verification | No | Global |
| AI providers (Google Gemini / OpenAI / DeepSeek) | Optional AI features only if enabled | Yes, if enabled (see §6) | Global |
Push payloads are minimized: they carry the notification text you configured and routing
identifiers, not your full records.
8. International transfers
Where a processor operates outside your region, transfers rely on adequacy decisions or
Standard Contractual Clauses. The primary hosting region is our hosting region
(to be confirmed).
9. How long we keep data (retention)
| Data | Retention |
|---|---|
| Account & family health records | For as long as the account/family exists (your family's history) |
| After account closure | Erased as in §10, at closure (see the Account & Data Deletion page) |
| Refresh tokens | Expire within 30 days; revoked at logout/closure |
| Usage analytics (no health, no names) | Default 365 days, then purged; off if you opt out |
| Security/audit logs (no health values) | Up to 12 months |
| Billing ledger (no health data) | As required by tax/commercial law ((available on request)) |
| Encrypted database backups | 14 days rolling — deleted data leaves all backups within 14 days |
Full detail is in our Data Retention & Deletion reference.
10. Your rights
Depending on where you live, you have rights of **access, correction/rectification,
deletion/erasure, restriction, portability, and objection, and the right to withdraw
consent** at any time. Most are self-service:
- Export: a machine-readable JSON export of your account data.
- Deletion: full account closure (password-confirmed) and per-record deletion.
- To exercise other rights, or if a self-service tool is unavailable to you, email
privacy@orlivas.com. We respond within the time your law requires (generally 30
days). You may also complain to your local supervisory authority.
See the Account & Data Deletion page for exactly what happens to family and
managed-profile data on closure.
11. Security
- All traffic is encrypted in transit (TLS). Passwords are bcrypt-hashed; sessions use
short-lived signed access tokens (15 minutes) with rotating refresh tokens.
- Access to member health data is enforced **server-side by family role on every
request**.
- Uploads are validated and stored outside the web root; files are served only to
authenticated family members.
- Production secrets are never stored in code; databases are backed up encrypted with
tested restore procedures.
No method of transmission or storage is perfectly secure; we protect your data using
measures appropriate to its sensitivity. See the Security & Responsible Disclosure
page.
12. Children
Orlivas accounts are for adults (16+). Children appear in Orlivas only as **managed
profiles** created and controlled by a parent or legal guardian, who is responsible for
that data as described in §4. We do not knowingly let children hold their own accounts,
and we show no advertising to anyone.
13. Regional privacy information
These sections apply only where the relevant law applies to you.
13.1 Québec (Law 25) & Canada (PIPEDA)
If you are in Québec or elsewhere in Canada, Zagru handles your personal
information under Québec's Law 25 and/or PIPEDA. The person in charge of the protection
of personal information is our Privacy Contact (privacy@orlivas.com). We will inform
you of any confidentiality incident presenting a risk of serious injury and notify the
Commission d'accès à l'information where required. You may request access, correction,
withdrawal of consent, and information about any automated processing (see §6). French is
offered as a first-class language of this service.
13.2 European Economic Area / United Kingdom (GDPR) — if applicable
If you are in the EEA or UK, you have the rights in §10, our legal bases are in §5, and
health data is processed on your explicit consent (Art. 9(2)(a)). You may lodge a
complaint with your supervisory authority. Our EU representative, where required, is
privacy@orlivas.com.
13.3 Türkiye (KVKK)
If you are in Türkiye, we process personal data under Law No. 6698 (KVKK). Health data is
a "special category" requiring your explicit consent, which you may withdraw. You have
the rights in Article 11 of the KVKK, exercisable at privacy@orlivas.com.
13.4 California (CCPA/CPRA) — if applicable
If you are a California resident: we do not sell or "share" (for cross-context
behavioural advertising) your personal information, and we do not use health data for
advertising. You may request access and deletion and will not be discriminated against
for exercising your rights.
14. Third-party links
Our apps and site may link to third-party services (e.g. app stores). Their privacy
practices are their own; review their policies.
15. Changes to this policy
If we change this policy in a way that matters, we will notify you in the app or by email
before the change takes effect and update the date above. Earlier versions are available
on request.
16. Not medical advice
Orlivas is a personal organization and reminder tool. It does not provide medical
advice, diagnosis or treatment, and its alerts are informational, rule-based and
non-diagnostic. Always follow the guidance of a qualified healthcare professional and
call emergency services in an emergency. See the Health & Wellness Disclaimer.
