2. What is "Consumer Health Data" at Biostarks
“Consumer Health Data” generally means personal data that identifies you (or can reasonably be linked to you) and relates to your past, present, or future physical or mental health status.
For Biostarks, this may include (depending on what you use):
-
Biomarker test results generated from your sample (e.g., dried blood spot results)
-
Information you provide about diet, lifestyle, symptoms, goals, supplements/medications (if you choose to share them)
-
Orders and kit workflow data that may indicate you sought a health-related service (e.g., kit activation, sample status)
-
Inferences we generate from your inputs or results (e.g., trends over time, wellness insights)
What is not included
Consumer Health Data does not include de-identified or aggregated data, and this Notice does not apply to information that is excluded from or exempt under applicable Consumer Health Data Laws (such as data regulated by HIPAA, where applicable).
3. How we collect Consumer Health Data
We may collect Consumer Health Data:
-
Directly from you (account creation, kit activation, questionnaires, customer support, messages you send us)
-
From your sample when our lab processes your at-home test
-
Automatically through our websites/apps (device and usage data; cookie-based data where applicable)
-
From connected services only if you choose to connect them (e.g., optional wearable/app integrations, if offered)
4. What we do with Consumer Health Data
We use Consumer Health Data to:

-
Operate our business, including billing, accounting, quality control, internal operations, security, fraud prevention, and legal compliance

Conduct optional user research (surveys/interviews) and share updates or offers where you’ve opted in / where permitted by law
5. How and when we share Consumer Health Data
We may share Consumer Health Data in limited circumstances, such as:
A) Service providers (processors)
We may share data with vendors that help us run Biostarks (e.g., cloud hosting, customer support tools, analytics, payment processing, logistics, lab operations). They may access data only to perform services for us and under contractual safeguards.
We may share Consumer Health Data with the following categories of service providers, strictly to perform services on our behalf and subject to contractual safeguards:
-
Laboratory operations partners (e.g., handling of sample processing workflows, quality controls, and results generation support)
-
Sample logistics and fulfillment providers (e.g., kit shipping, returns coordination, and delivery tracking)
-
Payment processors and fraud-prevention providers (e.g., processing payments and helping detect or prevent fraudulent transactions)
-
Cloud hosting and infrastructure providers (e.g., secure data hosting, storage, and compute services)
-
Customer support and communications platforms (e.g., ticketing, chat support, email delivery, and SMS notifications)
-
Analytics, performance, and cookie-related tools (e.g., measuring site/app performance and improving user experience, subject to your cookie preferences where required)
-
Security and monitoring providers (e.g., threat detection, access controls, and audit logging)
We do not permit these service providers to use Consumer Health Data for their own purposes.
B) At your direction / with your consent
If you request or authorize us to share data (for example, exporting results or sharing with a clinician or third-party service), we will do so based on your instruction.
C) Legal, safety, and security
We may disclose information to comply with applicable law, respond to lawful requests, protect rights and safety, or prevent fraud/security incidents.
D) Corporate transactions
If we undergo a merger, acquisition, financing, reorganization, or sale of assets, data may be disclosed as part of that transaction subject to appropriate protections.
“Sale” / “sharing” under Consumer Health Data Laws
Some disclosures may be considered a “sale” or “sharing” under certain Consumer Health Data Laws. We do not sell Consumer Health Data. If a situation ever required consent for “sale” or “sharing” as defined by those laws, we will obtain the required consent, and you may revoke it.
