SOS HATZALAH is a proud membre of the YCN - You Care Now Platform.

In order to optimize the way Emergency Callers reach Rescuers, YCN allows a number of partners to use its Application under a white label, in which case said partners shall enter into a partnership with YCN toward the use of the Application under their own brand. Therefore, all the Rescuers registered in the Application agree to have their availability extended to such Partners' applications in order to make more rescuers available and to have rescuers available across country lines. Such anonymous and free sharing of Rescuers across Partner Applications is the ultimate goal of the YCN platform to improve the Services and have all Users benefit from the Services. The Rescuers personal data shall not be shared with other Partners unless an Application "X" Rescuer accepts an Alert triggered by an Application "Y" User, in which case the sharing will only occur via dedicated BO Managers. SOS Hatzalah, like any other YCN platform member, may not derive any commercial benefit from such data.

YCN - You Care Now undertakes that any Partner who uses an Application comply with the rules and regulations as well as the technical requirements (i.e. maintenance and confidentiality) expected of all YCN platform members. Its Users are subjected to identical T&C that are published with every Application.
