We collect information that you provide directly when using the App, including:

• Account Information: Name, email address, password, and profile photo
• Implant Information: Implant type, model, serial number, manufacturer, implant date, surgeon details, hospital information
• Health Tracking Data:
  • Range of motion measurements and angles
  • Pain levels and descriptions
  • Emotional sentiment ratings
  • Activity logs
  • Notes and observations
• Documents: Medical documents, images, X-rays, reports, and other files you upload
• Caregiver Information: Names and email addresses of caregivers you invite to access your data

1.2 Automatically Collected Information

When you use the App, we may automatically collect certain information, including:

• Device information (device type, operating system, unique device identifiers)
• Usage data (features accessed, time spent in the App, interactions with the App)
• Technical data (IP address, browser type, app version)

2. How We Use Your Information

2.1 Primary Uses

We use the information we collect to:

• Provide, maintain, and improve the App's functionality
• Enable you to track and manage your implant information
• Facilitate caregiver access and collaboration
• Send you important updates, notifications, and service-related communications
• Respond to your inquiries and provide customer support
• Monitor and analyze App usage and trends
• Detect, prevent, and address technical issues or security threats

2.2 Anonymized Data Analysis and Trend Calculation

Specifically, we:

• Anonymize Your Data: Before analysis, we remove all personally identifiable information (PII), including names, email addresses, specific implant serial numbers, and any other data that could identify you as an individual.
• Calculate Deterioration Trends: Using anonymized data from all users, we analyze patterns of implant health and deterioration over time. This analysis helps identify:
  • Common trends in implant performance
  • Patterns related to age demographics (using age ranges, not specific ages)
  • Factors that may correlate with implant health outcomes
  • Timeline patterns for various types of implants
• Age-Based Analysis: We group anonymized data by age ranges (e.g., 30-40, 40-50, etc.) to:
  • Identify trends specific to different age groups
  • Understand how age may correlate with implant health patterns
  • Develop age-appropriate health monitoring insights
• Provide Essential Feedback: Using our proprietary "Implant Intelligence" calculation methodology, the system:
  • Compares your individual measurements (stored securely and privately) against anonymized population trends
  • Generates personalized insights and recommendations
  • Alerts you to potential concerns based on comparative analysis
  • Helps you and your healthcare providers understand how your implant health compares to anonymized population data
• Monitor and Improve Services: Anonymized data helps us:
  • Improve the accuracy of health tracking features
  • Enhance predictive models for better health monitoring using the Implant Intelligence methodology
  • Develop new features that benefit all users
  • Ensure the App provides valuable health insights

Data Anonymization Process:

1. Personal identifiers (name, email, specific dates, serial numbers) are removed
2. Data is aggregated and combined with data from other users
3. Individual data points cannot be traced back to any specific user
4. Only statistical patterns and trends are extracted for analysis

2.3 Feedback and Recommendations

Using our proprietary "Implant Intelligence" calculation methodology, the anonymized trend analysis enables the App to provide you with:

• Comparative Insights: How your measurements compare to anonymized population averages for similar age groups and implant types
• Trend Monitoring: Alerts when your data suggests patterns that may warrant attention, based on anonymized comparative data
• Predictive Insights: Information about potential future trends based on anonymized historical patterns

Note: These insights are generated automatically by the Implant Intelligence methodology and are meant to supplement, not replace, professional medical advice.
