OVERVIEW
This Privacy Policy applies to the Priority Health PriorityREACH mobile application (the “Services”) provided by Priority Health or its affiliates and developed by Wellframe (“Priority Health,” “Wellframe”, “we,” “us,” or “our”).
Please review our Privacy Policy carefully. If viewing in our mobile application, tap “Accept” to acknowledge that you understand how we may process your personal information. You may be asked additional questions as you use the app to ensure we have your consent to collect and use your personal information for specific purposes. We summarized some highlights below for your convenience, but you should still review the entire Privacy Policy in detail.
We may process your personal information for the following purposes:
- Providing you with the service accessed through this mobile application, including through service providers, such as our cloud hosting provider, that are contractually bound to protect your personal information;
- De-identifying your personal information (so it no longer identifies you) and using the resulting information in aggregated or non-aggregated form for product improvement, marketing, research, and to provide services to our customers.
Please do not use our mobile application if you do not agree to your personal information being processed for these purposes, or with any other terms of our Privacy Policy.

Some information may fall under multiple categories. By tapping “Accept” at the end of this Privacy Policy, you consent to us collecting and using your information as described below. It is your choice whether or not to provide us with such information, but if you decline, you may not be able to use part or all of our Service as some information is necessary. You can change some privacy settings at any time by going into the mobile application settings.
