2. How We Use Information
We use collected information to:
- Verify prescriptions using our AI analysis pipeline (powered by Google Gemini 2.5 Pro via Vertex AI within our GCP project).
- Facilitate human clinical review of AI-generated safety analyses.
- Match prescriptions with partner pharmacies for dispensing.
- Enable patients to track the status of their prescriptions.
- Send notifications about prescription status changes via email and push notifications.
- Process payments between patients, pharmacies, and the platform.
- Maintain platform security, detect fraud, and comply with legal obligations.
We do not use patient data for advertising, marketing to third parties, or any purpose unrelated to prescription verification and dispensing.
3. Data Storage and Security
All data is stored on Google Cloud Platform infrastructure located within the United Kingdom and European Union. We implement industry-standard security measures including:
- AES-256 encryption for data at rest.
- TLS 1.3 encryption for all data in transit.
- Role-based access controls with multi-factor authentication for all staff access.
- Regular security audits and penetration testing.
- Automated backup and disaster recovery procedures.
All AI processing is performed within our Google Cloud Platform project via Vertex AI. Patient data is not shared with external AI services or used for model training.
4. Third Parties
We share data with the following categories of third parties, strictly as necessary to provide our services:
- Partner pharmacies: Prescription details necessary for dispensing, shared only after verification is complete.
- Payment processors: Stripe processes payments on our behalf. Stripe's privacy policy governs their handling of payment data.

We do not sell, rent, or trade personal data to any third party. We do not share data with third-party AI providers for model training or any other purpose.
