Why a Privacy Policy

We want to provide good and clear information about how we handle your data.

For optimal functioning of the PRIFORA communication platform, it is necessary to digitally store personal data and usage data – both from the Home station and from the mobile and web applications – and to continuously update them based on the use of the various applications. This makes the following facilities available, among others:

  • Communication with and the interaction between the user of the Home station and the Contacts linked to it; via video and audio conversations and chats
  • Tools that make it possible, among other things, to share moments and experiences through photos and videos, to manage and expand the private relationship network, to record and follow up invitations for appointments
