Introduction
BugendaiOhana is an employee self-service application developed by Bugendaitech Pvt. Ltd. The application may provide employee wellness, activity tracking, and BT Rewards features, subject to the functionality enabled by the organization.
To support these features, BugendaiOhana may access certain health and fitness information through Android Health Connect on supported Android devices and Apple HealthKit on supported iOS devices.
This section explains the health and fitness information the application accesses, how it is collected and used, when it may be synchronized with the organization's Human Resource Management System (HRMS), and how users can manage permissions and request deletion of their information.
This section supplements the main BugendaiOhana Privacy Policy.
Health and Fitness Data We Access
Subject to the features available and the permissions granted by the user, BugendaiOhana may access the following information:
- Daily step count: The number of steps recorded for a particular day.
- Walking distance: The distance recorded for walking activities.
- Running distance: The distance recorded for running activities.
- Activity dates and timestamps: Dates or timestamps associated with activity records, where required by the application's functionality.
- Associated account information: An employee or application account identifier used to associate activity summaries with the appropriate user.
The application accesses this information through Android Health Connect or Apple HealthKit, depending on the device and supported integration.
BugendaiOhana requests access only to the data types required for the relevant features and authorized by the user.
How Health and Fitness Data Is Collected
When a user enables a relevant feature and grants the required permissions, BugendaiOhana reads the authorized health and fitness information from the applicable health platform.
The application may process this information to calculate activity summaries, display daily progress, evaluate progress toward eligible wellness or rewards goals, and support synchronization with the organization's HRMS.
The frequency and method of access depend on the application's implementation, the feature being used, and the permissions granted by the user.
The application does not intentionally access health information beyond the data types required for its disclosed functionality.
Purposes of Data Collection and Use
Health and fitness information may be processed for the following purposes, where supported by the application:
4.1 Activity Tracking
To display daily step counts, walking or running distance, and related activity progress within BugendaiOhana.
4.2 Employee Wellness
To support employee wellness activities, fitness goals, or activity challenges provided through the application.
4.3 BT Rewards Program
To calculate progress toward or eligibility for activity-based rewards, where this functionality is implemented and permitted under the applicable program rules.
4.4 HRMS Synchronization
To synchronize relevant activity summaries and associated account information with the organization's HRMS when necessary to provide the disclosed wellness or rewards features.
4.5 Application Operation and Security
To support the operation, integrity, and security of the relevant application features.
Health and fitness information will not be used for purposes unrelated to those disclosed in this policy or otherwise prohibited by applicable law or platform requirements.
Data Sharing and HRMS Synchronization
Where required to provide the application's wellness, activity tracking, or rewards features, relevant activity summaries, associated activity dates, and employee or account identifiers may be transmitted to and stored within the organization's HRMS.
The receiving system is Bugendaitech Pvt. Ltd..
The information may also be processed by authorized hosting providers, infrastructure providers, or other service providers supporting the disclosed functionality, subject to applicable contractual, security, and privacy requirements.
The information shared and the parties receiving it will be limited to what is necessary for the relevant features.
BugendaiOhana does not sell health and fitness data, share it with advertisers or data brokers, or use it for targeted advertising, provided these statements accurately reflect the application's implementation, integrated software development kits (SDKs), and organizational practices.
User Consent and Permission Management
Access to health and fitness information is subject to the permissions granted through Android Health Connect or Apple HealthKit, as applicable.
Users may grant or deny the requested permissions and manage or revoke access through the relevant platform's settings.
BugendaiOhana requests only the permissions necessary for its available features. Where required, the application provides a prominent disclosure explaining the data accessed, its purposes, and relevant sharing before requesting permissions.
Revoking permission prevents future access to information that the application is no longer authorized to read. However, revocation does not automatically delete information previously transmitted to or stored within the HRMS or another system.
The application handles permission denial and revocation according to its implemented access-control and synchronization procedures.
Data Retention and Deletion
BugendaiOhana retains health and fitness information only for as long as necessary to provide the disclosed activity tracking, employee wellness, and rewards features, and to meet applicable legal and organizational record-keeping requirements.
Users may request deletion of eligible stored health and fitness information by contacting operations@bugendaitech.com.
Revoking Health Connect or Apple HealthKit permissions prevents future access to data that is no longer authorized. However, it does not automatically delete information previously synchronized with the organization's HRMS.
Deletion requests will be processed in accordance with the organization's data retention and deletion procedures and applicable legal obligations. Where information must be retained for legitimate legal or record-keeping purposes, it may be retained for the period required.
Data Security
BugendaiOhana and the relevant service providers implement appropriate technical, administrative, and organizational safeguards to protect health and fitness information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, loss, or misuse.
Subject to verification of the implemented controls, these safeguards may include:
- Encryption of information during transmission using HTTPS/TLS.
- Encryption of stored information and backups, where implemented.
- Role-based access controls and least-privilege access.
- Authentication and authorization controls for application services and APIs.
- Security logging and monitoring to help identify unauthorized access or suspicious activity.
- Procedures for investigating and responding to security incidents.
Access to health and fitness information is limited to authorized personnel and systems according to their operational responsibilities.
The organization maintains security measures in accordance with its applicable security policies and legal requirements.
Restrictions on Use
Health and fitness information accessed through Android Health Connect or Apple HealthKit is used for the purposes described in this policy and other compatible purposes permitted by applicable law and platform requirements.

Any additional use of health and fitness information must be reviewed for applicable privacy, consent, and platform-policy requirements before implementation.
