The Standards for Privacy of Individually Identifiable Health Information (“Privacy Rule”) is a set of national standards for the protection of certain health information. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (“HHS”) issued the Privacy Rule to implement the requirement of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (“HIPAA”.) The Privacy Rule applies to “Covered Entities” under HIPAA which are Health Plans, Health Care Providers and Health Care Clearinghouses (e.g., billing services, community health management information systems, value-added networks and switches performing clearinghouse functions.) The Privacy Rule does not apply to Allergy Force LLC because it is not a "Covered Entity" under HIPAA.

We electronically collect and store information about your allergies. When you submit your allergy information, information related to the testing and evaluation of your allergies, or any other private health-related information to us, including your medical providers’ allergic reaction protocols, it is no longer covered under HIPAA.

While we will take reasonable precautions to ensure the privacy of the personal information you electronically submit to us, you agree that the personal information you submit to us is no longer confidential and might be seen by third parties with or without your consent. We use commercially reasonable data collection, storage and processing practices and security measures to protect against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure or destruction of your personal information.

You may be able to control the amount of information that is accessible to us by adjusting your account privacy settings on Instagram, Twitter, Facebook or any other such third-party services.
