References to ‘we’, ‘our’ or ‘us’ shall include Babylon and/or Companies.

The purpose of this study (the "Research") is to understand people's healthcare experiences and how they use our products and services. Your participation will help improve Babylon products and services. The data collected will only be used for product design and improvement purposes.

In the US, the research you are participating in is conducted by Babylon, Inc, a technology company, in order to improve products it provides to healthcare entities. This research is not conducted on behalf of these healthcare entities. Participants are recruited from the general public. Babylon Inc. does not knowingly recruit persons eligible for or receiving healthcare services provided by its telemedicine partners. As such, participants in research are subject to Babylon Inc.’s Privacy Policy.

Babylon may publish reports that include your comments and actions. Any such publications will not identify you as an individual and will be anonymous, meaning your name and identity will not be linked back to you.

Participation in the Research is voluntary. You can withdraw at any time and for any reason by contacting user.research@babylonhealth.com. Please note, once we have started to combine the data, we will only be able to delete identifiable data (e.g. videos, your name), but not your de-identified data (e.g. quotes from you, not linked to your name).

We may ask you questions about your health and healthcare experiences, and what you think about our products and services. We may ask you to use example products and services and watch how you do various tasks. We will record the session (audio and visual) and take notes during or after the session.

The product design teams may observe the sessions or watch the recordings. The recordings will be treated as confidential and will not be shared outside of Babylon or the Companies. Access to your information is restricted on an as-needs basis if absolutely necessary to fulfill a role. Any Companies instructed to perform the Research on Babylon’s behalf shall be subject to strict confidentiality and data protection contractual obligations.

We will delete all recordings in which you could be directly identified within 2 years from the date of the session.

We use appropriate technical and organisational security measures to protect your data and any transfers of data will be in accordance with the Babylon Privacy Policies for the UK and for the US.
