At Breef Docs, we believe in the fundamental right to privacy for everyone, no matter where you live. We treat any data that relates to an identified or identifiable individual, or that can be linked to them, as “personal data,” regardless of your location. This means that data that directly identifies you — like your name — and data that does not directly identify you but can be reasonably used to identify you — such as a device serial number — is considered personal data. Aggregated data, on the other hand, is considered non-personal data under this Privacy Policy.
This Privacy Policy explains how Breef Docs and its affiliates handle your personal data when you interact with us through our app, on our website, or in person. Please note that Breef Docs’ Privacy Policy does not cover how these third parties define or use your personal data. We encourage you to read their privacy policies and understand your privacy rights before engaging with them.
