1. NATURE OF THE SERVICE AND MEDICAL DISCLAIMER

1.1 Informational Self-Management Tool MedControl is a software tool (SaaS) designed to facilitate the recording, organization, and personal tracking of health information (symptoms, medication, appointments). MedControl is NOT a medical product nor a medical device as defined by Regulation (EU) 2017/745, except for those functionalities expressly certified as such.

1.2 Strict Absence of Medical Advice The content generated by the App, including Artificial Intelligence (AI) summaries, charts, and alerts, is for informational, educational, and organizational purposes only.

  • NO DIAGNOSIS: The App does not have the capacity to diagnose diseases or prescribe treatments.
  • NO SUBSTITUTION: The information provided should never replace the clinical judgment, diagnosis, or treatment of a professional physician.
  • VERIFICATION: You acknowledge that data generated by AI may contain errors or inaccuracies ("hallucinations"). It is your sole responsibility to verify any critical information with a healthcare professional before making health decisions.

1.3 Limitation of Health Liability You accept that the use of the App is at your own risk. SHELBY CODE SL shall not be liable for any health damage, injury, or prejudice derived from the misinterpretation of data displayed in the App, failures in medication notifications, or inaccuracies in AI summaries.

2.2 Security and Custody You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password. The Company is not responsible for losses resulting from unauthorized access to your account if this is due to your negligence in safeguarding your credentials.

3. SPECIFIC FUNCTIONALITIES, AI, AND DATA USE

3.1 Generative Artificial Intelligence (Google Vertex AI) The App integrates third-party services (Google Vertex AI) to process your health data, text, and voice in order to generate summaries and organize your history.

  • Data Transfer: You understand and accept that the use of this functionality may involve the secure transfer of data to technology provider servers, regulated by data processing agreements that guarantee privacy under the GDPR.

3.2 Geolocation and Location-Based Services MedControl may request access to your location (approximate or precise) for specific functionalities, such as locating nearby health services or personalizing the experience.

  • Control: You can revoke geolocation permission at any time from your operating system settings (Android/iOS). Please note that revoking this permission may limit certain functionalities of the App.

3.3 Advertising and Third Parties (Freemium Model) To support the free version of the Service, MedControl may display third-party advertising.

We will never share your specific health data or diagnoses with advertisers.

3.4 Audio and Image Recording The App may request microphone and camera permissions to allow you to dictate notes or scan medical documents. These media files are processed for the requested functionality and, unless otherwise stated, are treated ephemerally or stored in encrypted form.

To request refunds, you must follow the policies of the corresponding app store (Apple or Google).
