Summary

64% Informative

Medical data is a special category with federal protections that, for the most part, only you can choose to circumvent.

Most consumer apps aren’t covered under the U.S. healthcare privacy law HIPAA , offering no protections for your uploaded data.

It’s not always clear how and for what purposes the uploaded data is being used.
