- INTRODUCTION
The Website, the App and the Nerivio Device are individually and collectively referred to herein as the “Services”.
We greatly respect your privacy, which is why we make every effort to provide Services that would live up to recognized cybersecurity standards. Please read this Privacy Policy carefully, so that you can fully understand our practices in relation to Personal Information. “Personal Information” means any information that can be used, alone or together with other information, to uniquely identify any living human being. Please note that this is a master privacy policy and some of its provisions only apply to individuals in certain jurisdictions. For example, the legal basis in the table below is only relevant for GDPR/UK-GDPR -protected individuals.
You are not legally obligated to provide us Personal Information and providing us Personal Information is at your own free will.
We reserve the right, at our discretion, to change this Privacy Policy at any time. Such change will be effective ten (10) days following posting of the revised Privacy Policy on the Site. We will notify you of any material change to the Privacy Policy either by sending you an email with details of the change or notifying you of a change when you next access the App.
- TERMS OF USE AND EULA
This Privacy Policy forms part of our Terms of Use which are available on the Theranica Website at www.theranica.com and the Nerivio Website at www/nerivio.com under ‘Terms and Conditions’ and the App’s End User License Agreement which can be viewed from within the App and which you have to accept prior to using the App for the first time (“EULA”).
Finally, please note that some of the abovementioned Personal Information will be used for detecting, taking steps to prevent, and prosecution of fraud or other illegal activity, to identify and repair errors, to conduct audits, and for security purposes based on our legitimate interest. Personal Information may also be used to comply with applicable laws, with investigations performed by the relevant authorities, law enforcement purposes, and/or to exercise or defend legal claims. In certain cases, we may or will anonymize or de-identify your Personal Information. “Anonymous Information” means information which does not enable identification of an individual user, such as aggregated information about the use of our services. We may use Anonymous Information and/or disclose it to third parties without restrictions (for example, in order to improve our services and enhance your experience with them).
- PERIOD OF STORAGE OF COLLECTED INFORMATION
Personal Information. Your Personal Information (as described above) will be retained for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for until we no longer need the information and proactively delete it, we de-identify it or until you send a valid deletion request. In some circumstances we may store your Personal Information for longer periods of time, for example (i) where we are required to do so in accordance with legal, regulatory, tax or accounting requirements (including, without limitation, pharmacovigilance legislation), or (ii) for us to have an accurate record of your dealings with us in the event of any complaints or challenges, or (iii) if we reasonably believe there is a prospect of litigation relating to your Personal Information or dealings. We have an internal data retention policy to ensure that we do not retain your Personal Information perpetually..

- HOW WE PROTECT YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION
Security. We have implemented appropriate technical, organizational and security measures designed to reduce the risk of accidental destruction or loss, or the unauthorized disclosure or access to such information appropriate to the nature of the information concerned. However, please note that we cannot guarantee that the information will not be exposed as a result of unauthorized penetration to our servers. Nevertheless, we make commercially reasonable efforts to make the collection and security of such information consistent with this Privacy Policy and all applicable laws and regulations. As the security of information depends in part on the security of the computer, device or network you use to communicate with us and the security you use to protect your user IDs and passwords, please make sure to take appropriate measures to protect this information.
- HOW WE SHARE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION
In addition to the recipients described above, we may share your information as follows:
- With our business partners with whom we jointly offer products or services. We may also share Personal Information with our affiliated companies

In the event that we are acquired by or merged with a Third-Party entity, or in the event of bankruptcy or a comparable event, we may transfer or assign Personal Information in connection with the foregoing events.
- Where you have provided your consent to us sharing the Personal Information (e.g., where you provide us with marketing consents or opt-in to optional additional services or functionality); and
- Where we receive requests for information from law enforcement or regulators, we carefully validate these requests before any Personal Information is disclosed.

De-identified information is stored also by Google BigQuery – fully-managed, serverless data warehouse for data analysis with storage located in the United States. Intercom services and data are hosted at AWS facilities in the United States. AWS is self-certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework.
- Access from Israel: Access from Israel is covered by the European Commission’s Adequacy Decision regarding Israel, such decision has been recognized by the United Kingdom.

- External transfers: Where we transfer your Personal Information outside of the UK and/or EU/EEA, for example to third parties who help provide our products and services, we will obtain contractual commitments from them to protect your Personal Information. When we engage in such transfers of personal information, we rely on i) Adequacy Decisions as adopted by European Commission (and adopted by the UK Information Commissioners Office) on the basis of Article 45 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR) (for example, when we access from Israel), ii) Standard Contractual Clauses issued by the European Commission and/or the United Kingdom’s Information Commissioners Office, or ii) the recipient’s self-certification under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework and its UK Extension. We also continually monitor the circumstances surrounding such transfers in order to ensure that these maintain, in practice, a level of protection that is essentially equivalent to the one guaranteed by the GDPR and/or the UK GDPR.
- YOUR PRIVACY RIGHTS
- Rights: The following rights (which may be subject to certain exemptions or derogations) shall apply to certain individuals (some of which only apply to individuals protected by the GDPR/ UKGDPR):
