Who We Are

GraftWise Health, LLC ("GraftWise Health," "we," "us," or "our") is a digital health company developing KTx-CONNECT, a clinical platform designed to support medication adherence in pediatric kidney transplant recipients. Our registered contact address for privacy matters is:

GraftWise Health, LLC
Email: hello@graftwisehealth.com
Website: www.graftwisehealth.com

Scope of This Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to:

This policy does not apply to information collected through the KTx-CONNECT clinical platform in the context of a formal institutional pilot. That information is governed by a separate Business Associate Agreement (BAA) and data-use agreement executed with the participating institution, in accordance with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).

For clinical pilot participants: Patient and clinician data collected within a KTx-CONNECT institutional pilot is subject to the BAA and data-use agreement executed between GraftWise Health and your institution, not this general website privacy policy.

Information We Collect

Information You Provide Directly

When you complete the contact form on this website, we collect:

This information is submitted voluntarily. You are not required to provide it, but without it we cannot respond to your inquiry.

Information Collected Automatically

When you visit this website, certain technical information may be collected automatically by our hosting infrastructure, including:

This website does not currently use tracking pixels, behavioral advertising scripts, or cross-site analytics. If this changes, this policy will be updated accordingly.

Cookies

This website does not set advertising, tracking, or analytics cookies. It does not use behavioral profiling or cross-site tracking technologies of any kind. Our hosting provider (Netlify) may process standard technical metadata — such as IP address and request headers — as part of delivering the site. This is inherent to how websites are served and does not constitute user tracking.

SMS and Text Message Communications

The KTx-CONNECT platform sends automated text messages to enrolled patients as part of the clinical adherence workflow. These messages are sent only to individuals who have been explicitly enrolled in an institutional pilot and have provided documented consent through their care team or institution.

Consent and Opt-Out

No text messages are sent to website visitors or contact-form submitters. SMS enrollment is a separate, clinically supervised process. All enrolled recipients retain the right to opt out of text messages at any time by replying STOP to any message received. Opting out will halt all automated communications to that number.

Message Frequency and Charges

Message frequency varies by clinical protocol and individual care plan. Standard carrier message and data rates may apply. GraftWise Health does not charge for SMS communications directly.

SMS Data

Phone numbers collected for SMS communication are used solely for clinical follow-up purposes within the pilot program. They are not shared with third parties for marketing and are not sold.

Need help? For SMS support, reply HELP to any message or contact us at hello@graftwisehealth.com. To stop messages, reply STOP at any time.

How We Use Information

We use the information we collect for the following purposes:

We do not use any information collected through this website for advertising, behavioral profiling, or sale to third parties.

HIPAA and Protected Health Information

GraftWise Health understands its obligations under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) and its implementing regulations. The KTx-CONNECT platform is designed to operate as a Business Associate to covered healthcare institutions in the context of a formal pilot.

Business Associate Agreements

Before any Protected Health Information (PHI) is processed through the KTx-CONNECT platform, GraftWise Health executes a Business Associate Agreement (BAA) with the participating covered entity. This agreement defines the permitted uses and disclosures of PHI, the safeguards GraftWise Health maintains, and the obligations of each party.

Minimum Necessary Standard

GraftWise Health applies the HIPAA minimum necessary standard to all PHI access and use. The platform is designed to collect only the data required to support the clinical adherence workflow — no more.

This Website Does Not Collect PHI

The graftwisehealth.com website contact form is not a HIPAA-covered channel. Please do not submit Protected Health Information through the website contact form. If you are a patient or clinician with questions about data collected through a clinical pilot, contact your institution's privacy officer or reach us at hello@graftwisehealth.com.

Information Sharing and Disclosure

GraftWise Health does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We may share information in the following limited circumstances:

Service Providers

We engage third-party vendors to help operate this website and the KTx-CONNECT platform (see Section 8). These providers access information only as necessary to perform services on our behalf and are contractually obligated to protect it.

Institutional Partners

In the context of a clinical pilot, de-identified or aggregated outcome data may be shared with the participating institution for quality improvement and research purposes, as described in the applicable data-use agreement.

Legal Requirements

We may disclose information if required to do so by law, court order, or governmental authority, or if we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect the rights, property, or safety of GraftWise Health, our users, or the public.

Business Transfers

If GraftWise Health is involved in a merger, acquisition, or similar transaction, personal information may be part of the assets transferred. We would notify affected individuals of any material change in how their information is handled.

Third-Party Services

GraftWise Health uses the following categories of third-party services in the operation of this website and the KTx-CONNECT platform. Each provider is selected in part based on its data protection practices.

SMS Communications

Patient text message communications are delivered via Twilio, Inc. Twilio processes phone numbers and message content solely to transmit messages on our behalf. Twilio operates under appropriate data processing agreements. Twilio's privacy policy is available at twilio.com/legal/privacy.

Children's Privacy

This website is directed at healthcare professionals, institutional administrators, and research collaborators — not at children or the general public. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13 through this website.

The KTx-CONNECT platform serves pediatric transplant recipients (which may include minors) in the context of a supervised clinical pilot. All data collection involving minors occurs under the oversight of the participating institution, parental or guardian consent processes established by that institution, and applicable regulatory review (including IRB oversight). Data involving minors is treated with heightened care and is subject to the terms of the applicable BAA and data-use agreement.

If you believe a child under 13 has submitted information to this website without appropriate consent, please contact us at hello@graftwisehealth.com so we can remove it promptly.

When we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page and, where appropriate, notify affected parties by email or by a prominent notice on this website.
