GENERAL TERMS OF USE FOR THE IHEALTH APPLICATION PROGRAMMING INTERFACE (API)
These General terms of use (hereinafter the “Terms”) are signed between the company IHEALTHLABS US (hereinafter “iHealth”) and any third-party developer (hereinafter the “Developer”) wishing to use the iHealth Application Programming Interface (hereinafter the “API”) in order to develop third party applications intended for users of the iHealth products and services (hereinafter the “Users”).
Use of the API is subject to strict compliance with these Terms, which the Developer must first have reviewed and accepted.
Use of the API implies the Developer’s unconditional acceptance of the applicable terms, which impose certain obligations as well as behaviour and usage constraints upon the Developer.
The Terms are completed by the
"Partner Confidentiality Policy",which the Developers must also agree to.
ARTICLE 1. PURPOSE
These Terms define all of the terms and provisions for use of the API by any Developer. It is stipulated that browsing on the Internet site
https://developer.ihealthlabs.com (hereinafter the "Internet site") is further governed by the
"General terms of use of the internet site" and the documents to which they formally refer.
Use of the iHealth products and services is also governed by the instructions relating to each of them.
ARTICLE 2. OPERATION OF THE API
By connecting to the API, each Developer accesses the data collected and stored on the iHealth Cloud and the Developer’s attention is formally directed to the specific precautions that must therefore be taken, nas listed in the aforementioned iHealth documents that accompany these Terms.
2.1 Provisions for access / creation of a "developer" account
To be able to fully use the resources of the API and notably in order to access User data, the Developer is invited to create a personal account for which s/he will be requested of provide certain data, some of which may be of a personal nature.
Developers undertake that the communicated data are accurate and current. iHealth can in no way be held liable in case of difficulties or harm resulting from the inaccuracy or obsolescence of the data provided by Developers. Nevertheless, in compliance with the law, Developers can at any time, by simple request, while providing proof of their identity and complying with the relevant iHealth procedures, obtain access to the data relating to their accounts for the purposes of modifying, correcting or rectifying the said data.
In case of serious doubts regarding the truthfulness of the conveyed information, iHealth can perform verifications thereof.
A Developer’s personal account must be created online. At that time, iHealth will provide the Developer with a Token key that the Developer will then use in order to register. This key is unique and specific to each natural or legal registered Developer account.
2.2 Identifiers
A username and password (hereinafter the "Identifiers") are assigned to the Developer, in order to provide access to his/her personal account.Identifiers are personal and confidential. They can only be changed at the User's request or on the initiative of iHealth. Developers are solely responsible for the security level of their Identifiers, and iHealth calls on the Developers to protect the access to their personal accounts from any third party. As such, Developers must be sure to log off from the API.
iHealth guarantees the security of its own storage, management and hosting system, that meets the applicable legal and regulatory requirements as well as high quality standards, but it cannot, barring proof of negligence that can be directly attributed to it, be held liable for the consequences of actions due to carelessness or failures on the part of the Developer that could result in fraudulent usage of the said Identifiers.
As of their first connection to the API, Developers can change their password online. For subsequent connections, Developers will therefore have to enter the original Identifiers chosen by them.
iHealth recommends that Developers should change their password on a regular basis.
If the password is lost or forgotten, the Developer in question must generate a new one that will be sent to his/her e-mail address.
The Developer must not authorise access by any third party. As such, in case of theft of the Identifiers or in case of established or suspected use of the said Identifiers by an unauthorised third party, the Developer in question must immediately contact iHealth by sending an e-mail to support:
sales@ihealthlabs.com.
In case of suspected fraud, iHealth can suspend the Developer's access to his/her account.
The User alone is entirely responsible for the use of his/her Identifiers and undertakes to make every effort to ensure the secrecy thereof, while not disclosing them to anyone and in any form whatsoever. In case of loss or theft of his/her Identifiers, the User is responsible for any harmful consequence of this loss or theft, and must, as quickly as possible, use the procedure that will allow them to be changed.
