Sharing fitness tracker data with insurers: privacy risks explained
Original: Health insurance wellness rewards: Should you share your fitness tracker data with your insurer? Know the privacy risks
Insurers are offering wellness rewards to customers who share data from fitness trackers, but privacy experts warn the practice carries risks. Data shared in exchange for premium discounts or rewards could be used to adjust pricing, assess claims, or be exposed in breaches. The report urges policyholders to read consent terms carefully and weigh financial benefits against how their health information may be stored, shared or sold.
Why now: Insurers are increasingly tying wellness rewards to wearable data, raising fresh privacy concerns.
