>The company plans to grab four categories: your sleep, your medications, your medical records, and your cycle tracking details. The company also said that humans (maybe Samsung employees and third-party contractors) will be able to review some of the data collected.
For your own sake... let them*
^* delete the data that is.^
Just curiosity. How the hell is US medical system set up that it's even possible for a company thats not in any way related to health have acess to medical history and meds?
Like my countries medical system is fully digitized, but there isn't even a way for a random company to acess this information.
A lot of this is info from smart watches, etc.
Fair, heart rate, weight and height would be considered as medical records. But meds? How can it figure that out if i don't specifically tell it?
It can't. But they give you a space in the app for you to tell it.
That makes sense, thank you for elaborating.
