Privacy Policy

Effective Date: 24 March 2026

1. Introduction and Who We Are

This Privacy Policy applies to the Punto Health Platform, which includes mobile apps, iPad apps, and web apps (collectively, "we," "us," or "our"). This policy outlines how we collect, use, process, and safeguard personal information. By using the platform, you agree to the practices described herein.

Data Controller

For the purposes of the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018, the Data Controller for user data on this platform is PUNTO HEALTH LTD, a company registered in England and Wales (Company Number: 15174291), with a registered address at Health Foundry, 1 Royal Street, London, England, SE1 7LL.

EU Representative

Because we offer services and process the data of individuals located within the European Economic Area (EEA), we have appointed our Spanish subsidiary, Puntoclinic SL, with a registered address at Carrer Laureà Miró 371-373, 08980 Sant Feliu de Llobregat, Barcelona, Spain, to act as our designated EU Representative under Article 27 of the EU GDPR.

Please note: Some sections of this policy apply only to users with access to specific features. These are clearly marked. In instances where we provide services directly to healthcare clinics, we act as a Data Processor on their behalf.


2. Information We Collect

We collect, store, and process different types of information when you interact with the Punto Health Platform. In some cases, we may only process information on behalf of the clinic or health study, rather than collect it ourselves.

a. User Data

We may collect and process the following user data:

b. Patient Data

Patient data is processed on behalf of clinics using our platform:

Patient data is owned by the clinic that provides it. We process this data on their behalf in accordance with their instructions and privacy policies.

c. Health Research Study Participants

If you are using the PuntoTest Clinic or PuntoTest apps, you are participating in a health study. As part of this study:


3. How We Use Your Information & Lawful Basis

Our Purposes for Processing

We use your data for the following purposes:

Our Lawful Basis (UK and EU GDPR)

To carry out the purposes above, we process your data under the following lawful bases:

Processing Health Data (Special Category Data)

Because health and medical information is classified as "Special Category Data" under Article 9 of the GDPR, we only process this data under an additional lawful basis:

Feature Specific Usage

(Subscription users only) We may contact you by email, phone number, or push notification regarding your free trial, subscription status, billing, and service updates.

(PuntoChat users only) Conversation inputs are used solely to generate responses within PuntoChat. Your conversation inputs are strictly confidential and are not used to train our AI models or Google's base AI models. The assistant draws only from content curated and reviewed by our clinical team and is designed to provide information only. It does not provide medical advice and is not a medical device.


4. Data Storage

Your data is stored securely using industry-standard cloud infrastructure providers. We implement robust technical and organisational measures, including encryption at rest and in transit, to protect your personal and health information. Our primary servers are located in the EU.

Data may be passed securely across the Punto Health Platform to ensure seamless care (for example, data entered on a patient's mobile app may be accessible from a clinician's web dashboard). However, health data is strictly segregated and access-controlled by role. This ensures that only explicitly authorised users (such as specifically linked caregivers or assigned clinicians) can view patient information.


5. Sharing of Information

We may share your information in the following circumstances:


6. Data Security

We implement strict technical and organisational security measures to safeguard your personal and health data against unauthorised access, loss, or alteration. This includes:


7. Data Retention

We retain personal data as long as necessary for the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy.


8. Analytics and Usage Data

We use analytics tools and software development kits (SDKs) to collect data about how you use our platform. This helps us understand usage trends, improve our services, and enhance product performance. The types of analytics data we collect may include:

This data is collected and processed in an aggregated and anonymised form, meaning it cannot be used to identify you personally. We use this information to:

In accordance with the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR) and the ePrivacy Directive, we will ask for your consent before activating any non-essential analytics trackers or SDKs that access information on your device. This data is processed in an aggregated and anonymised form. You can opt out of analytics tracking at any time through your device or app settings.


9. Automated Decision-Making

Our platform utilises AI for cognitive screening (PuntoTest) and conversational support (PuntoChat). However, we do not engage in solely automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal or similarly significant effects on users. All AI outputs and test results are intended to provide clinical support and informational guidance to human clinicians and users, not to replace professional medical diagnosis.


10. Children's Policy

The Punto Health Platform is not intended for use by individuals under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If we become aware that we have inadvertently collected personal data from a minor, we will take steps to delete such information as quickly as possible.


11. User Rights

Under the UK and EU GDPR, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:

For Patient Data: Requests regarding access, correction, or deletion of clinical records should be directed to the clinic or NHS Trust that owns the data.

To exercise any of the above rights regarding user data, please contact our Data Protection Officer at dpo@puntohealth.com.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. In the UK, this is the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk. In the EEA, you may contact the Spanish Data Protection Agency (AEPD) or your local authority.


12. International Data Transfers

As we utilise global cloud infrastructure and AI partners (such as Google Gemini), your data may be transferred outside of the UK or the European Economic Area (EEA).

Whenever we transfer your personal data internationally, we ensure it receives a similar degree of protection by relying on recognised legal mechanisms. These include:


13. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time, and any updates will be reflected with a new "Effective Date" at the top of this page. Please review this policy regularly.
