Last Updated: June 9, 2026

🔒

Your health data is private, encrypted, and never sold. This policy explains exactly what we collect, why we collect it, and how you can control it.

1. Who We Are

MediVyn is a personal health tracking application operated by Saikiran Bandi, trading as MediVyn, based in Hyderabad, India. We are reachable at saikiran@medivyn.com.

This Privacy Policy applies to all MediVyn products including medivyn.com, medivyn.health, and our mobile applications on Android.

  • Daily wellness: mood, sleep quality, eating habits, movement, hydration
  • Symptom descriptions and AI assessment results
  • Health records and documents you upload
  • Medical history: past illnesses, surgeries, allergies, family history
  • Lifestyle information: smoking, alcohol, activity level, diet type

3. How We Use Your Data

We use your data exclusively to provide and improve MediVyn:

  • To display your health history and trends within the app
  • To generate personalized AI health insights based on your logged data
  • To power the AI symptom checker with your health context
  • To send medication reminders and daily wellness notifications
  • To generate pre-appointment summaries for your doctor visits
  • To determine your subscription pricing based on your region
  • To send important service updates and policy changes
  • To diagnose technical problems and improve app performance

We do not use your health data for advertising, profiling, or any commercial purpose beyond providing MediVyn to you.

4. Data Storage and Security

Your data is stored using Google Firebase, hosted on Google Cloud infrastructure with servers in asia-south1 (Mumbai, India). All data is:

  • Encrypted in transit using TLS 1.2 or higher
  • Encrypted at rest using AES-256
  • Protected by Firebase Security Rules that ensure only you can access your data
  • Backed up automatically by Google Cloud infrastructure

Health records and documents you upload are stored in Firebase Storage with the same encryption standards. Access URLs are time-limited and require authentication.

While we implement industry-standard security measures, no system is 100% secure. We encourage you to use a strong password and enable two-factor authentication on your Google account.

5. Data Sharing

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal or health data to any third party.

We share data only with the following service providers, strictly for operating MediVyn:

  • Google Firebase — database, authentication, and file storage
  • OpenAI — AI health tips and insights (anonymized prompts only, no personal identifiers sent)
  • Anthropic — AI symptom checker (anonymized health context only)
  • Razorpay — payment processing (we share only what is required to process your payment)
  • Vercel — web application hosting

Each of these providers is bound by their own privacy policies and data processing agreements. We do not permit them to use your data for any purpose other than providing their services to us.

We may disclose your data if required by law, court order, or to protect the safety of users or the public. We will notify you of such disclosures where legally permitted.

6. AI and Your Health Data

MediVyn uses AI to generate personalized health insights. When your data is sent to AI providers:

  • We send only the minimum data necessary for the specific insight
  • We do not send your name or email to AI providers
  • Health context is sent as anonymized clinical data
  • AI providers are contractually prohibited from using your data to train their models

The AI-generated insights are stored in your account so you can review them. You can delete them at any time from your profile settings.

7. Your Rights

  • Access — Request a copy of all data we hold about you
  • Correction — Update or correct inaccurate data through the app or by contacting us
  • Deletion — Request deletion of your account and all associated data
  • Portability — Request your health data in a machine-readable format
  • Restriction — Request that we limit how we process your data
  • Objection — Object to specific types of processing

  • Session storage — temporary caching of your data for faster page loads (cleared when you close your browser)
  • Vercel Analytics — anonymous usage statistics to help us improve the app (no personal identifiers)

We do not use advertising cookies, third-party tracking, or behavioral profiling cookies.

11. International Data Transfers
