We never collect

• Aadhaar or any government identity number
• Phone numbers, unless a user explicitly chooses to provide a contact for follow-up
• Medical records or clinical history
• Names or any unnecessary personally identifiable information

Anonymous by default

Community reports are submitted anonymously. Reports are stored at area level only and are used to detect patterns, never to identify individuals.

Not a diagnosis

Risk scores and alerts are indicators for further investigation. They do not diagnose any individual and do not officially declare an outbreak. Any confirmation requires professional public-health investigation and laboratory testing.

Reference thresholds

Water-quality thresholds used in this prototype are configurable demo/reference values chosen for demonstration. They are not universal medical or regulatory standards.
