Washington Consumer Health Data Policy

Whole Human Studio
Effective date: October 11, 2026]

This policy applies to “consumer health data” as defined by Washington’s My Health My Data Act and similar state laws. It supplements our general Privacy Policy [link]. Where they differ, this policy controls for consumer health data.

1. Who we are

Whole Human Studio is a coaching practice operated by Whole Human Studio, Washington State, USA. Contact: shigs@wholehumanstudio.com.

2. Consumer health data we collect

Through the Signal Check form, we collect:

  • Self-reported wellbeing information, such as stress levels, energy, sleep, recovery, and how you’re feeling about work and life

  • Information about behaviors that affect your health, such as work patterns, rest habits, and routines

  • Your email address, which is linked to your responses

We don’t collect diagnoses, medical records, precise location data, or biometric data.

3. Sources

We collect consumer health data only directly from you when you complete the Signal Check.

4. Why we collect and use it

  • To understand your current situation and send you your Signal Check results

  • To respond to you if you ask about coaching

  • To prepare for a coaching conversation you’ve requested

We collect it only with your consent, which you give through a separate checkbox before you submit the form. We don’t use it for advertising, and we don’t combine it with data from other sources.

5. Sharing

We don’t sell consumer health data.

We share it only with processors that store or process it for us under contracts that require them to protect it and use it only on our instructions:

  • Tally (Tally.so), which hosts the Signal Check form and stores responses

We share consumer health data with any other third party only with your separate consent, or where required by law.

Affiliates: None.

6. Your rights

You have the right to:

  • Confirm whether we collect, share, or sell your consumer health data

  • Access your consumer health data, including a list of all third parties and affiliates we’ve shared it with and an active email address or other contact for each

  • Withdraw consent to our collection and sharing at any time

  • Delete your consumer health data. When you ask us to, we’ll delete it from our records and notify our processors to delete it too. Data in archived or backup systems will be deleted within six months.

7. How to exercise your rights

Email shigs@wholehumanstudio.com with the subject line “Health Data Request.” We may need to verify your identity, typically by confirming the email address you used on the Signal Check.

We’ll respond within 45 days. If we need more time, we may extend that by another 45 days when reasonably necessary, and we’ll tell you why within the first 45 days. Requests are free up to twice in any 12-month period.

8. Appeals

If we decline your request, you can appeal by emailing shigs@wholehumanstudio.com with the subject line “Health Data Appeal.” We’ll respond in writing within 45 days and explain our decision. If we deny your appeal, you can contact the Washington State Attorney General: https://www.atg.wa.gov/file-complaint

9. Retention

We keep Signal Check responses for up to [24 months] after submission, or until you ask us to delete them or withdraw consent, whichever comes first.

10. Changes

If we change this policy in a way that affects how we use your consumer health data, we’ll ask for your consent again before doing so.
