Your consent is obtained at registration, where you actively confirm that you give Ryma permission to process your health data for the purposes described in this policy.
You can withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us at [email protected] or by deleting your account. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing that took place before the withdrawal. When you withdraw your consent, we delete your health data within 30 days, unless retention is required by law.
05Automated decisions and profiling
Ryma uses artificial intelligence to analyse your symptom data and generate personal insights. This involves profiling within the meaning of the GDPR, as we systematically analyse your personal data to assess aspects of your health.
5.1 What our AI does
- Pattern recognition, identifies recurring symptom patterns over time
- Trigger identification, correlates lifestyle factors (diet, stress, sleep, alcohol) with symptoms
- Intensity tracking, follows changes in symptom severity
- Report generation, summarises your data into structured clinical reports
5.2 Your rights regarding automated processing
Ryma's AI-generated insights are advisory and informational. They do not constitute decisions with legal or similarly significant effects for you within the meaning of Art. 22. You are always free to ignore the insights, and they never replace a medical assessment.
Regardless, you always have the right to:
- Receive an explanation of how a particular insight was generated
- Contest an insight you believe is incorrect
- Request that an insight be reviewed manually by a staff member
Contact [email protected] to exercise these rights.
