1. Educational Platform - Not Medical Services
The Product is an educational health information platform that provides algorithmic organization of publicly available medical literature. We do not:
- Practice medicine or provide medical services
- Create doctor-patient relationships

- Require HIPAA compliance (as we are not a covered entity)
2. Information Collection and Use
Current Anonymous-Only Model
The Product currently operates on a completely anonymous, session-based model:
- No user accounts or registration required

Technical Information
During your session, we may collect minimal technical information solely to provide the service:
- IP address (for geographic restrictions only)
- Browser type and version
- Session timestamps

- No health information is stored between visits

The only data processing occurs:

- Automatic session termination
8. Geographic Restrictions
The Product may be restricted or unavailable in certain jurisdictions based on local regulations regarding health information platforms.
