2. DESCRIPTION OF OUR SERVICES
2.1 Our Services include:
(a) Symptom Checker: the ability to enter questions, symptoms and other information into our artificial intelligence symptom checker, which calls up information on medical conditions based on the data you enter. Based on the data you provide on symptoms and complaints, combined with statistical medical information on medical conditions and risks, you will receive advice on your need for (immediate) medical treatment without human intervention. In addition, a list of possible medical conditions corresponding to your symptoms can be shared with you and your doctor via My Health. The advice is indicative and is expressly not intended to replace your doctor or health care provider. Always consult your doctor or health care professional if you would do so without using the Symptom Checker;
(b) My Health: a section of the App consisting of your medical profile, complaint reports and a contact module that allows you to contact your general practitioner (if your general practitioner is affiliated with our Services);
(c) A searchable collection of articles on medical conditions, providing information on symptoms, complaints and risks, and offering suggestions and advice on possible next steps.
2.2 The use of the App and our Services is currently free of charge. This may change in the future. If our Services incur any charges, we will clearly inform you in advance. We will then ask you to link a valid payment method to your Account in order to make in-app purchases.
2.3 Our use of your personal data in the context of our Services is described in our Privacy Statement, which can be found here.
3. YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES IN RELATION TO OUR SERVICES
3.1 The output of our Services is based on the data you provide, combined with general statistical information about medical conditions, general health and lifestyle information, and general information about risk factors. Our Services respond to the data you provide, for example through our questionnaires. If you provide incorrect, outdated or incomplete data, this may have a negative impact on the output made available to you and may even result in incorrect or incomplete advice. Therefore, we make no guarantees regarding the output of our Services.
3.2 The output of our Services does not constitute medical advice, diagnosis or treatment. You should therefore always speak to a qualified medical professional about any questions you may have about a medical condition, about concerns you may have about the information provided by our Services, or before making any decisions that may affect your health. You should not stop taking medications or undergoing certain treatments based on the output of our Services.

However, withdrawal of consent will not affect the information we have already provided to your doctor prior to such withdrawal;
(c) we ask for your consent to use data recorded by your physician for the provision of our Services. If you give your consent, you may withdraw it at any time.
If we do not cooperate with your doctor in the context of the Services, or if you do not or no longer consent to the sharing of your data with your doctor, you will still be able to use some of our Services, but we will not be able to provide our Services to you in full. Without your prior consent, we will not share your information, including personal information, with your doctor in the context of his/her services. We cannot guarantee your doctor's availability and are not responsible for your doctor's advice.
