Privacy Policy
Version 2026-05-24 · Effective 24 May 20261. Overview
Janet Cares is operated by Work Healthy Australia Pty Ltd(ABN 30 094 368 162) (“we”, “us”, “our”, “WHA”). We are the data controller for the purposes of the Australian Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs).
Janet Cares is a personal health optimisation platform. It calculates a member’s biological age estimate, produces a five-domain wellness assessment, and delivers personalised supplement recommendations and a coaching experience via the Janet AI. The platform serves individual members (B2C) and, where a corporate employer has arranged access, members of a corporate wellness programme (B2B).
This Privacy Policy describes what personal information we collect, why we collect it, how we use and protect it, and your rights in relation to it. By creating an account or using the Service you agree to this policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
A formal APP 5 collection notice is available at /legal/collection-notice. Plain-language data-handling commitments are at /legal/data-handling. The wearable-data Privacy Impact Assessment is at /privacy/wearable.
2. Information we collect
2.1 Account identifiers
- Email address — collected at signup via Supabase Auth. Used for login, transactional email, and account verification.
- Full name — collected at signup. Stored encrypted (AES-256-GCM) on our database. Used to personalise your experience and to identify you to any nominated clinician.
- Date of birth — collected during onboarding. Stored encrypted. Used to compute biological age and contextualise risk scores.
- Mobile phone number — optional; collected during onboarding. Stored encrypted. Used for SMS reminders only if you explicitly opt in under the Spam Act 2003 (Cth).
- Postal address — optional; collected during onboarding. Being migrated to encrypted storage. Used to contextualise regional health norms.
2.2 Sensitive health information
The following is sensitive information under APP 3.3. We collect it only with your explicit consent and use it solely to deliver the core service:
- Medical history, current medications, and known allergies (including criticality and reaction type).
- Family health history — parental and grandparental conditions, causes of death, and onset ages.
- Cancer history — personal and family; including type and onset age.
- Lifestyle factors — smoking status, alcohol use, exercise frequency, sleep patterns, diet quality, and stress levels.
- Biometric measurements — height, weight, resting heart rate, and blood pressure.
- Sex assigned at birth and gender identity.
These fields are collected via the onboarding questionnaire and stored in a de-identified JSONB structure in our database. PII fields are stored separately and never mixed into the questionnaire response object.
2.3 Uploaded documents
You may upload medical documents — blood work panels, imaging reports, genetic test results, microbiome analyses, and other pathology. Uploaded files are:
- Stored in encrypted Supabase storage (Sydney region, ap-southeast-2).
- Analysed by the Janet AI (Anthropic Claude) to extract structured findings — biomarker names, values, reference ranges, test dates, and the name of the ordering clinician. Patient-identifying information (your name, date of birth, Medicare number, etc.) is explicitly prohibited from appearing in any extracted output.
- Never shared with third parties beyond the named processors in section 6.
2.4 Wearable and device data
If you configure a wearable sync workflow (Apple Health or Android Health Connect), we receive seven fields per sync:
- Sleep duration and deep sleep percentage
- Step count and active calories
- Resting heart rate and heart rate variability (HRV)
- Date of measurement
We do not access GPS location, raw accelerometer data, audio, photos, or any other sensor data. See the Wearable Privacy Impact Assessment for full detail on this data flow.
You may use third-party utility apps installed on your own device — such as Health Auto Export (iOS) or a Health Connect relay (Android) — to transmit your wearable data to us. These apps are operated by their own vendors and we have no contractual relationship with them. We recommend reviewing each app’s privacy policy before installing. Data they transmit to us is governed by this privacy policy from the point we receive it.
2.5 Computed outputs
- Biological age estimate and longevity score
- Domain risk scores (cardiovascular, metabolic, cognitive, musculoskeletal, oncological)
- Supplement protocol and coaching recommendations
- Biomarker trends and status classifications
2.6 Conversation history
Messages you exchange with the Janet AI are stored in our database, linked to your account. They are used to maintain conversation continuity and to allow your nominated clinician to review your coaching history.
2.7 Technical and billing data
- IP address and browser user-agent — captured at the time of consent acceptance for audit-trail purposes only.
- Session authentication tokens — managed by Supabase Auth; never stored in our application layer.
- Stripe billing identifiers — subscription plan, billing cycle, and payment status. Payment card details go directly to Stripe and are never stored on our servers.
- Error telemetry — application error reports including stack traces and the URL that caused the error, collected via Sentry. Sentry is configured to mask personally identifiable request parameters.
3. How we use your information
We use your information only for the purposes for which it was collected or purposes you would reasonably expect:
- Delivering the core service — computing your biological age estimate, calculating your wellness scores, producing personalised supplement recommendations, and powering Janet AI coaching.
- Clinician review — making your data available to any registered clinician you nominate as part of your care team. Access is gated on your explicit consent and recorded in our audit trail.
- Transactional communications — welcome email, password reset, program-delivery notifications, and appointment confirmations, sent via Resend.
- Service improvement and safety — error tracking via Sentry to identify and fix bugs; cost monitoring to maintain service availability.
- Legal and regulatory obligations — maintaining clinical records as required by AHPRA records-keeping standards (minimum 7 years from last service for adults).
We do not use your data to train AI models. We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with any third party other than the named processors in section 6. Where you participate in a corporate wellness programme, only de-identified aggregate cohort signals are shared with your employer — never your individual identifiable data.
4. Data security
- Encryption in transit — all data between your device and our servers is encrypted using TLS 1.3.
- Encryption at rest — PII fields — your full name, date of birth, phone number, and postal address are encrypted at rest using AES-256-GCM before being written to the database. The encryption key is held separately from the database.
- Encryption at rest — files — uploaded documents are stored in Supabase Storage, which applies server-side encryption (AES-256) to all objects.
- Row-level security (RLS) — our database enforces RLS on every table. Your records are never readable by another member. Clinicians can read only the patients who have explicitly granted them access. Admin access is scoped to staff accounts and is audited.
- Audit trails — every consent acceptance, care team access grant/revoke, role change, and wearable sync request is recorded in immutable append-only audit tables. These records cannot be modified or deleted.
- Service-role key isolation — the database key that bypasses row-level security is used only in server-side administrative functions (webhooks, risk engine writes, PDF generation). It is never sent to the browser.
5. Data residency
| System | Data held | Region |
|---|---|---|
| Supabase (primary database & file storage) | All patient data — profiles, health records, uploads, risk scores, audit logs | ap-southeast-2 (Sydney, Australia) |

APP 8 — Cross-border disclosure
Anthropic, Stripe, Resend, Vercel, and Sentry process data outside Australia (primarily in the United States). By creating an account you acknowledge this cross-border disclosure. We take reasonable steps to ensure that each overseas recipient is bound by privacy obligations comparable to the APPs (via the DPAs listed above), but you should be aware that overseas privacy laws may differ from the Privacy Act 1988.
Data sent to Anthropic for document analysis consists of the document you uploaded and a system prompt. We do not send your name, date of birth, or contact details to Anthropic. The system prompt contains an explicit prohibition against including patient-identifying information in any output.
7. Your rights
Under the Australian Privacy Act 1988 and the APPs you have the following rights:
- Access — you may request access to your personal information at any time. You can download a complete export of everything we hold about you from your Account page. Alternatively, email privacy@workhealthyaus.com.au.
- Correction — if you believe any information we hold about you is inaccurate, incomplete, or out of date, you can update it from your Account page or email us.
- Deletion (erasure) — you can permanently delete your account and all associated personal data from your Account page. Clinical records created under AHPRA obligations may be retained in de-identified form for the minimum regulatory period (7 years for adults). Audit records (consent log, care team log) are retained to support regulatory compliance and cannot be erased.
- Wearable data — you can delete wearable sync data by source (Apple Health, Android Health, manual entry) at /account/data/wearables without affecting any other data.
- Withdrawal of consent — where we rely on your consent to process sensitive health information, you may withdraw consent at any time. Withdrawal will affect the features available to you but will not affect the lawfulness of prior processing.
- Complaints — if you believe we have breached the APPs, please contact us at privacy@workhealthyaus.com.au in the first instance. If the complaint is not resolved to your satisfaction within 30 days you may lodge a complaint with the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC).
