This Privacy Policy explains how Bio-Conscious Technologies Inc. ("Bio-Conscious," "we," "us," or "our"), the maker of the Endobits platform, collects, uses, protects, and shares information when you visit our websites, contact us, or use our services. By using our site or services, you agree to the practices described here.
Bio-Conscious Technologies Inc. builds predictive metabolic AI. Endobits is our clinical decision-support platform that reads continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) data to help clinicians predict, prioritize, and prevent metabolic disease. You can reach us at contact@bioconscious.tech.
When Endobits processes health information on behalf of a covered entity (such as a clinic or provider), we act as a business associate under the U.S. Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and handle that information in accordance with our Business Associate Agreements and applicable law. We use appropriate administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect PHI.
This section applies to the Endobits Companion iOS app.
What we collect on our servers:
What stays on your device: your glucose readings and Apple Health data — glucose, meals (carbohydrates and energy), steps, heart rate, resting heart rate, sleep, workouts, active energy, and insulin delivery — are read and analyzed on your device. Forecasts, trends, and AGP analysis run locally. We do not upload this health data to our servers.
Apple Health (HealthKit) commitments: we request read-only access and never write to Apple Health. We will never use Apple Health data for advertising, marketing, or similar purposes; we will never sell it; and we will never share it with data brokers, advertising platforms, or analytics companies. Apple Health data is used solely to provide the app's features to you.
Research program (opt-in only): if you explicitly opt in inside the app, de-identified glucose pattern data may be used to improve our forecasting models. This is off by default, requires your explicit consent on a dedicated consent screen, and you can revoke it at any time in the app; revoking stops future use immediately. Data used under this program is de-identified before model training and is never sold or used for advertising.
Deletion: in the app, Settings → Delete account permanently deletes your server-side account and its data, removes stored connection tokens, and wipes the app's local keychain data. This is irreversible. Health data never left your device, so deleting the app removes it.
No ads: the Companion app shows no advertising and contains no third-party ad or tracking SDKs.
Where permitted and, where required, with your consent (for example, when you choose a "donate your data" option), we may use de-identified information, from which direct identifiers have been removed, to research, develop, and improve our algorithms and the metabolic-health field. De-identified data is not used to re-identify you.
We do not sell your personal information.
We retain personal information for as long as needed to provide the service, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements, after which we delete or de-identify it.
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict the use of your personal information, and to withdraw consent. Residents of certain jurisdictions (including under the EU/UK GDPR and the California Consumer Privacy Act) may have additional rights. To make a request, contact contact@bioconscious.tech. If your data is held by your clinic or provider, please also contact them directly.
We use cookies and similar technologies to operate the site, remember preferences, and understand usage. You can control cookies through your browser settings.
Our services are intended for healthcare professionals and adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children except where processed on behalf of a provider as part of clinical care and permitted by law.
We are based in Canada and may process information in Canada, the United States, and other countries. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards for cross-border transfers.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be posted here with an updated effective date.
