Privacy
Your privacy matters
Last updated: September 21, 2026
At Numera®, personal safety and personal information are both handled with care. This policy explains what we collect, why we collect it, and how we protect it
About this policy
Numera® respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and how we help protect it when you visit our website, use a Libris device, use the CareOne™ app or portal, contact our team, or interact with our products and services
1. Information we collect
We may collect personal information when you purchase a product, create an account, use a Numera® device or app, contact support, or fill out a form on our website
This may include:
- Name
- Email address
- Phone number
- Mailing or shipping address
- Billing information
- Account login details
- Device setup information
- Emergency contacts
- Care Circle contacts
- Support messages and service notes
When you use a Libris device, Home Safety Hub, CareOne™, or a related Numera® service, we may also collect information such as:
- Device status
- Battery level
- Signal strength
- Alert history
- Button press events
- Fall detection events
- Location information during an alert or when location features are enabled
- App or portal activity
- Notification preferences
- Service and diagnostic information
2. Health Data from Apple Health, Health Connect, and CareOne Health Journal
CareOne™ can access, collect, store, and use Health Data if you choose to connect Apple Health (HealthKit) on iPhone or Android Health Connect on Android.
We do not read this data unless you turn on Apple Health or Health Connect in CareOne™ and grant permission in the system prompt. If you never enable those features, we do not collect Health Connect or Apple Health data.
How we access Health Data
- On Android, CareOne™ uses Health Connect. If you allow it, we may read health data in the background and read historical records.
- On iPhone, CareOne™ uses Apple Health (HealthKit).
- After you grant permission, health samples are uploaded from your device to Open Wearables, which Numera® operates for CareOne™. CareOne™ then uses that data to show your Health Journal in the app and on careone.numera.com.
- The first time you connect (and some app updates) may request up to about 180 days of history. Later updates are smaller, ongoing syncs.
- If you use more than one device (for example an Android phone and an iPhone), samples can be stored under the same CareOne™ account so the journal can combine them.
Health and fitness data types we may read (only the types you allow)
- Activity: steps, distance, floors climbed, elevation, speed, workouts/exercise, total and active calories burned, wheelchair pushes
- Body measurements: weight, height, body fat, lean body mass, bone mass, waist circumference, basal metabolic rate, body water mass
- Nutrition: nutrition, hydration/water
- Sleep: sleep sessions and related sleep data
- Vitals: heart rate, resting heart rate, heart rate variability, oxygen saturation (SpO2), blood pressure, blood glucose, body temperature, respiratory rate, VO2 max
- Cycle tracking (only if you allow these): menstruation, ovulation test, cervical mucus, sexual activity, intermenstrual bleeding
Health Connect data we may write
CareOne™’s Health Journal is mainly read. The Android app can also write test/sample records to Health Connect for steps, heart rate, resting heart rate, blood pressure, hydration, sleep, and active calories when a seed/test action is used. We do not sell this data. Normal journal use does not require writing Health Connect data.
Health information you enter in CareOne
If you use Health Hub, we also store information you enter in CareOne™, such as medications, medication reminders, appointments, and related notes. That is separate from Apple Health / Health Connect, but it is still health-related personal information.
How we use Health Data
- Show Health Journal (steps, sleep, heart rate, blood pressure, and other tiles when data exists)
- Provide summaries, charts, and insights for you and for caregivers you have already authorized
- Operate, secure, debug, and improve Health Hub and the Open Wearables connection
We do not use Apple Health or Health Connect data for advertising, selling data, or credit decisions.
Who we share Health Data with
- Numera® / CareOne™ systems (including our cloud host) to store and display the journal
- Open Wearables, operated for CareOne™
- People you authorize on your CareOne™ account (for example a family member or caregiver)
- Service providers who process data only for us (hosting, logging, support)
- Others only if required by law
PERS / Libris device events (button press, location, battery, charger) are described in other sections of this policy. They are separate from Apple Health / Health Connect Health Data.
Your choices
- Do not enable Apple Health or Health Connect
- Allow only some data types in the system permission sheet
- Turn the integration off in CareOne™
- Revoke CareOne™ in Android Health Connect → App permissions or iOS Settings → Health → Data Access
- Request deletion of stored journal/wearable data via support@numera.com or 1-800-485-6224
Revoking permission stops new reads. Data already stored in CareOne™ / Open Wearables is removed when you request deletion (or when we delete the account), except where we must keep records for legal or safety reasons.
