1. About This Notice and About Peroya

Promenade LLC operates Peroya, a patient advocacy application. This Notice of Privacy Practices is required by HIPAA and describes how we may use and disclose your Protected Health Information (PHI) and your rights regarding that information.

Peroya operates as a third-party patient application. You authorize Peroya to access your health records from your health plan on your behalf. Your health plan remains the HIPAA covered entity responsible for your records. Promenade LLC acts as your representative — under your direction, on your behalf, and with your recorded authorization before any action is taken.

2. Language Access and This Notice

This Notice is provided in Spanish and English. Patients who prefer other languages may request a translated version by contacting [email protected]. Where AI-assisted translation is used for this Notice at a patient's request, a disclosure will accompany the translation.

3. How We May Use and Disclose Your PHI

3.1 Uses to Provide You the Peroya Service

  • Retrieve and display your health records in plain language in your preferred language
  • Track prior authorization status and notify you of changes
  • Help you understand your options after a prior authorization decision, including your right to appeal
  • Prepare advocacy documents you review and authorize us to send — like data access requests, appeal letters, and grievance submissions — on your behalf under your recorded authorization
  • Enable caregivers or family members you have authorized to support your healthcare management

3.2 Patient-Authorized Communications with Health Plans

When you ask Peroya to reach out to your health plan, your authorization is recorded before any action is taken. These communications are made as your representative, carrying out your explicit instruction. You may revoke any authorization at any time within the app.

3.3 Uses and Disclosures Requiring Your Written Authorization

Peroya will not use or disclose psychotherapy notes obtained from your health plan without your separate written authorization, beyond what is necessary to provide you the Peroya service.

3.4 Special Categories of Health Information

Certain categories of health information receive additional protection under federal and Puerto Rico law. Peroya's sensitive service filters ensure these categories are never displayed to parents, caregivers, or other authorized representatives without the patient's explicit consent, regardless of the permissions otherwise granted to that representative.

  • Mental health and substance use records: protected under 42 CFR Part 2 and applicable Puerto Rico law
  • Reproductive health information: protected under minor consent laws; not accessible to parents through Peroya
  • HIV and STI records: subject to additional state and federal restrictions

3.5 Uses Permitted Without Authorization

  • As required by law (court orders, legal process)
  • Public health reporting as required by applicable authorities
  • To avert a serious and imminent threat to health or safety

4.2 Right to Request Amendment

If you believe health information Peroya has retrieved on your behalf is inaccurate or incomplete, Peroya will submit a formal correction request to your health plan on your behalf, under your recorded authorization.

Peroya will track the status of your correction request and notify you of the plan's response. To initiate a correction request, use the correction request feature in the app or contact [email protected].
