Do not use it as a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis or treatment.

Privacy Policy for Patients
In a second layer based on an incremental processing of your data, in relation to the data that we obtain through the Application related to the user’s health status and those communicated by themselves through the response to the questionnaires, only the medical teams and researchers with the right to access the data source (medical history) and those responsible for the treatment, may relate the data collected with the patient’s medical history. The identity of the users is not available to any other person and under any circumstances except in case of legal requirement.
For the platform to function correctly, it is necessary for the user to connect certain devices via Bluetooth while taking measurements (you can disconnect it after the values are recorded). Just to be able to pair your smartphone with devices via Bluetooth, the Bluetooth connection will need to detect location to identify the device it needs to be paired with so it can work efficiently.
That’s why, although we don’t collect location data, permission is still required to use it during measurements.
