This policy explains how Outfront Health (“Outfront,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, protects, and shares consumer health data (CHD), including lab results, biometric measurements, and other health indicators obtained through:
- At-home blood testing kits
- In-home or event-based physical screening
- Self-reported health information
This Policy complements our general Privacy Policy and provides additional protections specific to sensitive health information.
2. Key Definitions
- Consumer Health Data (CHD): Health-related data including lab results, vitals, body composition, heart rhythm, grip strength, balance metrics, and other measurements.
- Personal Health Information (PHI): Data that identifies you and relates to your health, covered by HIPAA when applicable.
- De-Identified Data: CHD stripped of identifiers, used for research, analytics, or aggregated reporting.
- Authorized Personnel: Labs, clinicians, certified technicians, or other trained professionals who collect, process, or interpret CHD.
3. Collection of Health Data
- At-Home Blood Testing: Users provide samples via kits. We collect results from third-party CLIA-certified labs.
- In-Home or Event-Based Screenings: Trained personnel collect biometric data. All personnel are bound by confidentiality agreements.
- Self-Reported Health Information: Voluntarily provided by users through forms, surveys, or app inputs.
4. Use of Health Data
- Service Delivery: Processing lab results, generating reports, providing optional follow-up consultation as required by law.

- Research & Analytics: Aggregate or de-identified data may be used to improve services, develop health studies, or for internal analytics.

5. Sharing Health Data
CHD is only shared as necessary to provide Services:

- Business Associates: Payment processors, analytics providers, or support platforms that need access to deliver services, under confidentiality agreements.
- Legal & Public Health Authorities: As required by law or court order.
No Sale for Monetary Gain: We do not sell CHD. Certain state laws may treat cross-site tracking or research sharing as a “sale,” allowing opt-out rights.
6. Data Retention & Security
- Retention: CHD is retained only as long as necessary to provide services or comply with laws. De-identified data may be stored indefinitely.
- Security Measures: Encryption, secure servers, role-based access, and firewalls protect CHD. Users are responsible for safeguarding account access.
