Recorded images are typically destroyed and not shared with third parties unless there is suspicion of a crime or wrongdoing, in which case they may be turned over to the police, or other appropriate government agency or other appropriate third parties.
Additionally, where permitted by law, Belong Health has the ability to monitor all business communications, including, without limitation, phone, internet browsing, email, instant messaging, and VoIP. For the purposes of your own personal privacy, you need to be aware that such monitoring might reveal sensitive personal information about you if you include such information in a business communication.
