Your privacy matters

Last updated: January 2025

Information We Collect

We collect information you provide when using Selfcare Hub, including screening responses, mood entries, and wellness check-in data. This may include your name, student ID, faculty, year of study, and self-reported mental health information. We also collect usage data such as feature interactions, session duration, and engagement patterns to improve our services. All screening and mood data is collected with your explicit consent and is anonymized where possible to protect your identity.

How We Use Your Information

Your information is used to provide personalized mental health support, including AI-powered screening analysis, mood tracking, wellness recommendations, and crisis detection. Aggregated, de-identified data may be used for research to improve student mental health outcomes. We do not share your personal information with third parties without your consent, except as required by law or in emergency situations where there is a risk of serious harm.

Data Protection

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your data, including encryption in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256). Access to your data is restricted to authorized personnel only. Our infrastructure is hosted on secure, SOC 2-compliant servers. While we take every precaution, no system is completely immune to security breaches. We regularly audit our systems and update our practices to maintain the highest standards of data protection.

You have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal data at any time. You can request a copy of the data we hold about you, ask us to correct inaccurate information, or request deletion of your account and associated data. You may also withdraw consent for data processing at any time. To exercise these rights, contact our Data Protection Officer using the details below. We will respond to your request within 30 days.
