What do we do?
When you register in our app, we collect your phone number as an account identifier. While using the application, we may collect your name, date of birth, gender, email address, and optionally your nationality. We also collect the name of the medication selected (by code or name), and optionally, other personal data such as blood pressure, weight and height (for BMI calculation), cholesterol, and triglyceride levels. This information enables TERAH to identify and notify you according to the treatment you have set.
If you report a missing medication, we will use this data to contact you once it has been added to the database. The recorded health and therapeutic data will also create a history for your own reference.
If you give your consent, when a medication is about to run out, we may notify a pharmacy of your choice to reserve it. In this case, the pharmacy will collect your name, email, medication name, quantity, prescription information, and may register a reservation number. If you choose home delivery, your address may also be collected.
You may grant access to your account to another user (e.g. an informal caregiver), and that access can be revoked at any time by you.
