BioMind Cabinet Privacy Policy
Operated by: Mariam Ohanyan, operating as BioMind AI Academy, 1136 N Columbus Ave, Apt 102, Glendale, CA 91202, USA
Contact for privacy questions and rights requests: biomedmariam@gmail.com
Effective date: October 23, 2026
1. What BioMind Cabinet is
BioMind Cabinet ("Cabinet," "we," "us") is a private place where you โ an
adult account holder (18 or older) โ store your own medical documents and,
if you choose, documents for your children in guardian-managed profiles.
Documents live in ten "drawers": ๐งช Lab Reports ยท ๐ฉบ Ultrasound ยท ๐ฉป X-Ray ยท
๐ฅ๏ธ CT Scan ยท ๐งฒ MRI ยท ๐ Prescriptions & Medicines ยท ๐ Doctor's Notes &
Discharge Papers ยท ๐ Vaccinations ยท โค๏ธ Heart ยท ๐ Other.
Inside your cabinet, an AI assistant called Nurse Mari can explain a
stored document in plain language, in English, Russian, Armenian, or Spanish.
Nurse Mari is an artificial-intelligence program, not a human being, not a
nurse, and not a doctor. Section 8 explains exactly what the explanations
are โ and what they are never allowed to be.
This Policy describes what information we collect, why, what we will never do
with it, the consents we will ask for, and the rights you can exercise at any
time.
2. The short version
- Your cabinet is yours alone. No other user can ever see it.
- We never sell your information. We never share it for advertising. Ever.
- Your documents are never used to train artificial intelligence.
- You can download everything, and delete everything, at any time.
- Explanations are education only. They are never a diagnosis.
- If something goes wrong โ a breach โ we will tell you, on the fastest clock
the law gives us (Section 13).
3. Our promises โ the red lines, stated as commitments
These are the founder's founding rules for the Cabinet. They are promises, not
aspirations, and the product is built to keep them:
- A fully isolated room for every person. Your cabinet, and each child's
profile, is completely separate. No person can ever access another
person's documents or conversations โ not another user, not a sibling, not
anyone.
- No distribution โ ever. We will never distribute, publish, or disclose
your documents, your charts, or your identity, to anyone, except (a) to the
service providers listed in Section 6 who process data on our behalf under
contract, and (b) when you explicitly ask us to share something, with
your consent recorded (Section 5).
- You hold the keys. You can download everything in your cabinet, and
delete everything in your cabinet, at any time, yourself, from inside the
app โ no phone call, no permission needed from us.
- Sharing happens only by your hand. Any sharing beyond the providers in
Section 6 happens only with your explicit consent, given for that sharing,
and recorded so you can see it and revoke it.
- No sale of health information. We do not sell your personal or health
information, and we do not share it for advertising or marketing
cross-context behavioral advertising โ under any consent. (Some laws
would let us ask for a signed authorization to sell health data. We
decline: there is nothing to authorize, because we do not sell it.)
- No training. Your documents, and anything derived from them, are never
used to train, fine-tune, or improve any artificial-intelligence model.
4. Information we collect, and why
We collect only what the Cabinet needs to work:
| Category |
Examples |
Purpose |
| Account information |
Name, email address, language choice, password credentials held by our hosted identity provider |
Create and secure your account; operate the service in your language |
| Documents you store |
Photos/scans and text of lab reports, ultrasound and imaging reports, prescriptions, discharge papers, vaccination records, and other papers you choose to upload, in the ten drawers |
Store, organize, display, and โ only when you tap "Explain this to me" โ explain the document to you |
| Explanation data |
The explanation generated from a document you asked about, and its sources |
Show you the explanation; keep it in your cabinet with the document |
| Children's profile information |
Child's name, date of birth, and documents you upload to that child's profile |
Operate the guardian-managed profile you created (Section 9) |
| Payment information |
Subscription or lifetime-purchase status; card data is handled by our payment processor and never stored on our servers |
Charge only what you agreed to (Section 15) |
| Technical information |
Device/app version, security and access logs, error records that do not contain document content |
Keep the service secure, detect unauthorized access, fix failures |
| Support communications |
Messages you send us |
Answer you |
Sources: everything above comes from you, from your device as you use the
service, or from a health care provider only if you direct that provider in
writing to send your records to the Cabinet under your legal right of
access. We do not buy data, scrape data, or receive your information from
data brokers.
Health information is sensitive. Lab values, imaging reports,
prescriptions, and the explanations derived from them can identify your past,
present, or future health status. We treat all of it as sensitive health
information under the strictest rules that apply to us (Sections 5, 10, 14),
including California's Confidentiality of Medical Information Act (CMIA) and
the consumer-health-data laws of Washington, Nevada, and Connecticut.
5. Consents โ what we ask, separately, before we act
We do not bundle consent into general terms. We ask, separately:
- Collection consent. By creating an account and uploading a document,
you consent to our collecting and storing that document to provide the
Cabinet you requested. For uses beyond what the service you requested
requires, we will ask for a separate, clear, opt-in consent first.
- Explanation consent. A document is sent for explanation only when
you tap "Explain this to me" for that document. Explaining uses the
processors named in Section 6.
- Sharing consent. Before we share any of your information with anyone
beyond the Section 6 processors, we will obtain your explicit consent for
that specific sharing, and record it. For residents of California, a
disclosure of medical information will be made only under a written
authorization meeting CMIA's requirements, unless a CMIA exception
applies.
- Separate consent for children. Before a child's document is disclosed
to a third-party processor (for example, for text recognition or
explanation), the verifiable parental consent described in Section 9 must
specifically cover it.
- Withdrawal. You may withdraw any consent at any time, as easily as you
gave it, from inside the app or by contacting us. Withdrawal stops future
use under that consent; it does not undo processing already lawfully done,
and we will delete data you ask us to delete (Section 10).
No conditioning. We will never refuse you the Cabinet because you declined
an optional consent. Consents that a law requires to be signed authorizations
(such as a sale of health data) are not used: we do not sell health data
(Section 3.5).
6. Who receives your information โ processors, named by type
We disclose your information only to companies that process it for us,
under written contracts that require them to: use it only to provide their
service to the Cabinet; keep it confidential; retain it no longer than
needed to process your request (our standard is no retention of document
content); never use it to train their models; protect it with reasonable
security; and tell us without unreasonable delay โ and in all cases within 60
days โ if it is breached, identifying each affected person.
| Processor type |
What it receives |
Why |
| Hosted identity provider |
Account credentials, email |
Secure sign-in (we never run our own password system) |
| Cloud hosting & database |
Your encrypted documents and account data |
Storage and operation of the Cabinet |
| Text recognition (OCR) |
The document image/text only when you upload or request an explanation |
Read the document's text |
| AI explanation provider |
The document's text only when you tap "Explain this to me" |
Draft the explanation (Section 8) |
| Payment processor (Stripe) |
Payment details, purchase status |

| Email delivery provider |
Your email address, message content of notices |
Send receipts, reminders, and notices you are owed |
Providers at launch (October 2026). Sign-in: Google (United States).
Cloud hosting, database, and document storage: Supabase (United States,
East US region). Website hosting: Cloudflare (United States). The OCR,
AI-explanation, payment, and email rows above describe services that are
not yet active at launch โ no document upload or explanation processing
is live yet, and no Cabinet payment is being collected; before any of them
is activated, this Policy will be updated to name the provider and its
processing country.
Legal disclosures. We may disclose information if the law compels it
(court order, subpoena, or a statute that requires it), and we will tell you
unless the law forbids telling you. We will never voluntarily disclose your
documents or identity for marketing, immigration, or general law-enforcement
fishing purposes.
Providers sending records to you here. If you ask your doctor or hospital
to send your records directly to your Cabinet under your right of access,
that provider's duties are theirs; once the records arrive, they are yours,
held under this Policy. We do not act on any provider's behalf, and no
provider can see into your Cabinet.
7. Advertising, tracking, and geolocation โ what we do not do
- No advertising trackers on signed-in screens. No advertising or
analytics SDKs, pixels, or session-replay tools receive your documents,
document-derived data, or the fact that you use a health vault, on any
authenticated Cabinet screen.
- No sale or sharing for advertising of any personal information,
including to social-media or ad platforms (Section 3.5).
- No geofencing. We do not create virtual perimeters around clinics,
hospitals, or any health care facility to identify, track, or message
people โ and we never will.
- Truthfulness. Every privacy and security statement we make โ in this
Policy, in app-store listings, and in the app โ is a commitment we are
required to keep literally true, including about our subprocessors. If a
statement here ever stops being true, we will change the practice or change
the statement and tell you (Section 17).
8. Explanations โ what they are, and what they will never be
When you tap "Explain this to me," four AI workers handle your document in
sequence: ๐ the Reader (quotes your document exactly; flags words it
cannot read; never guesses) โ ๐ฌ the Scientist (drafts the explanation
from published scientific information, principally PubMed/NCBI and named
guidelines, in the order: what is normal โ what needs attention โ the most
important thing) โ ๐ก๏ธ the Guardian (checks every number against the
Reader's quotes and removes any wording that crosses the lines below) โ ๐ฌ
the Voice, Nurse Mari (presents it calmly, in your language).
Our product promises about explanations:
- Education only. Explanations teach you what a document says and what
its terms and values generally mean. They are general educational
information, not medical advice.
- Never a diagnosis. The Cabinet will never tell you that you have, or
do not have, any disease or condition; never offer a list of possible
diagnoses for you ("differential"); never characterize your result as a
clinical conclusion about you; and never give you a severity or
probability score about your own health.
- Never a treatment recommendation. The Cabinet will never recommend
that you start, stop, or change any medication or treatment, and never
direct your personal care decisions.
- Written reports only. The Cabinet reads the text of written
reports. It does not analyze medical images themselves โ it does not
interpret your ultrasound, X-ray, CT, or MRI pictures, and it never will
under this Policy. A photograph you upload is processed to read the
report's words, not to examine the scan.
- Your document's own ranges. Where a value is shown against a reference
range, it is the range printed on your document or a named published
range, shown so you can see where the number sits โ reference ranges cover
the central 95% of healthy people, so about 1 in 20 healthy results falls
a little outside by chance. Position on a range is information, not a
verdict.
- General safety language, always visible. Every explanation screen
carries this standing notice, whether or not your document mentions
anything urgent: "This explanation was generated by artificial
intelligence. It is educational only and is not medical advice. If you
have emergency symptoms โ such as chest pain, trouble breathing, signs of
stroke, or severe bleeding โ call your local emergency number (911 in the
US) or seek urgent care now. For anything in your report that worries
you, contact your own doctor or care team." This general language is not
a document-specific instruction about you.
- AI transparency. Nurse Mari is disclosed as an AI at first
introduction and throughout explanation screens, with instructions for
reaching a human being at our support team. Nothing in the Cabinet will
ever state or imply that an explanation was written, reviewed, or approved
by a licensed physician, nurse, or other licensed professional โ unless a
specific explanation actually was reviewed by a human licensed in the
state or country where you are located, in which case it will say exactly
that, and only that. Job titles in the Cabinet never imply a government
license.
- Human review gate. While our launch review mode is on, an explanation
is held for review before it is shown to you, and the Guardian worker's
veto cannot be overridden by any other worker. If a worker is uncertain,
its instruction is to say so and hold โ never to improvise.
- Accuracy honesty. AI can misread documents and can be wrong. The
Reader quotes your document so you can check the words yourself; if the
quote and your paper disagree, your paper is right. Always discuss your
results with the clinician who ordered them.
Marketing for the Cabinet will claim only what the Cabinet demonstrably does:
stores your documents, explains terminology, and displays published reference
information. We will not claim the Cabinet detects disease, spots problems
early, or interprets your results for clinical use.
9. Children's profiles โ guardian rules
Accounts are held only by adults. A child never holds an account; a child's
profile exists inside a parent's or legal guardian's account.
- Verification before activation. A child profile does not activate
until we have obtained verifiable parental consent from the adult
account holder โ by a method the law recognizes (for example, a signed
consent form, a payment transaction in the adult's name with notice, a
government-ID check with the ID image deleted after verification, or an
approved knowledge-based check). A simple email confirmation is not
enough. We keep an audit record of each consent.
- Guardian attestation. To create a child profile you must attest that
you are the child's parent or legal guardian with authority to manage the
child's health documents. If guardianship is disputed or changes, contact
us โ control follows the law and court orders, not family preference.
- Direct notice. Before the profile activates, we give you a direct
notice of what we collect about the child, how it is used, who processes
it (Section 6), and your rights below.
- Parent rights. At any time, you may: review all information in your
child's profile; refuse further collection or use; and require deletion
of the child's information โ from inside the app or by contacting us.
- Minimum necessary. We collect only the child information reasonably
necessary for the profile and the features you use.
- Retention limit. Children's information is retained only as long as
reasonably necessary for the purpose it was collected for, per the
written retention schedule in Section 12. Indefinite retention of a
child's information is prohibited, and we prohibit it in our systems too.
- Separate disclosure consent. We will not disclose a child's
information to any third party beyond the contracted processors in
Section 6 โ which your verifiable parental consent must specifically
cover โ without separate consent, except where the law requires it.
- Adolescent confidentiality. Some services for adolescents are
confidential by law even from parents. Where the law gives the adolescent
control over a record, we will follow the law over a guardian's request,
and we will explain that to the extent the law allows.
- Age 13. When a child turns 13, children's-privacy rules change. We
will notify you, and the profile continues only under the consent and
rights framework that then applies, including any consent the teenager
must give personally under applicable law.
- Age 18 โ transfer. When a child reaches adulthood, the parent's
access ends. The profile's contents transfer to the now-adult person's
own account only with that person's consent, through a transfer flow
we will present to both of you in advance. Without the adult's consent,
a parent may not continue to access, download, or share the profile;
the adult may instead direct us to export or delete it.
10. Your rights โ and how to use them
Whatever state or country you live in, you may at any time, from inside the
app or by contacting us at biomedmariam@gmail.com:
- Access / know: get a copy of your information โ including everything in
your cabinet โ and know the categories of information we hold, why, and
where it came from.
- List of recipients: get the list of third parties with whom your health
information has been shared (beyond the processors acting for you, which
are listed in Section 6).
- Correct: ask us to correct inaccurate information (documents you
uploaded are corrected by you directly โ replace or delete them anytime).
- Delete: delete any document, any profile, or your whole account, and
have the deletion flowed through to our processors. Deletion is permanent
(Section 12 for backup timing).
- Withdraw consent: withdraw any consent in Section 5, as easily as you
gave it.
- Export / portability: download your cabinet in a usable format at any
time โ your records are never held hostage to a subscription.
- Limit use (where the law provides it): limit the use and disclosure of
sensitive personal information to what is necessary for the service you
requested.
- Non-discrimination: we will never penalize you, degrade your service,
or charge you differently for exercising a right.
Mechanics. In-app controls are the fastest route and work immediately.
For requests sent to us directly, we verify the requester is the account
holder (or a guardian acting within Section 9), respond within the time the
applicable law requires โ and in all cases we aim to complete requests
within 30 days โ and tell you if a law requires us to refuse or delay any
part, and why. Residents of Washington, Nevada, and Connecticut have the
consent, access, withdrawal, and deletion rights described in their laws
over their consumer health data; this Policy is also our consumer health
data privacy policy for those states, and it is linked distinctly where
those laws require.
11. Security โ how we protect your cabinet
We maintain a reasonable, documented information-security program
appropriate to the sensitivity of health information, and we review and test
it regularly. Its commitments:
- Encryption of your documents in transit and at rest. Information that
is encrypted to recognized standards is outside the scope of most breach
notification duties โ we treat encryption as both a security control and a
protection for you.
- Per-user isolation, enforced technically: each cabinet and each child
profile is separated at the data layer, so no account can reach another's
contents, even by manipulating the app.
- Access control: our staff access is limited to those who need it for
the duty they are performing, is authenticated, logged, and reviewable.
Staff never browse user cabinets for curiosity; support access to a
document happens only at your request or to resolve a security incident.
- Vendor flow-down: every processor in Section 6 is bound by contract to
confidentiality, security, no-training, and no-retention terms, and to
notify us of any breach on the clock in Section 13.
- Security of children's data is maintained under the same program, in
writing, as children's-privacy law requires.
- Your part: protect your sign-in. Tell us immediately at
biomedmariam@gmail.com if you believe your account was accessed by someone
else.
We will never describe our security with words we cannot back up โ we will
not call the Cabinet "HIPAA compliant," "HIPAA certified," or similar,
because (Section 14) HIPAA does not govern this service, and claiming its
badge would mislead you.
12. Retention and deletion โ the written schedule
We keep information only as long as the purpose requires:
| Data |
Retention |
| Your documents and explanations |
Until you delete them or close your account. They are your records; we do not expire them on our own schedule. |
| Account information |
While your account is open; deleted within 30 days of account closure, except records in the rows below |
| Children's profile information |
Only as long as reasonably necessary for the profile's purpose; deleted promptly on a guardian's deletion request or at the Section 9 transfer; never retained indefinitely |
| Payment records and subscription consent records |
At least 3 years, or 1 year after the subscription ends, whichever is longer (auto-renewal law), and as tax/accounting law requires |
| Security and access logs |
12 months, unless needed for an open incident or legal duty |
| Breach/incident records |
As the applicable breach laws require |
| Backups |
Encrypted backups rotate and are overwritten within 30 days; a deletion you make reaches live systems immediately and backups within that rotation |
When you delete a document, it is removed from your cabinet and our live
systems, and we instruct our processors to delete their copies. Deletion of
an account deletes all cabinets and profiles under it, subject only to the
retention rows above.
13. If something goes wrong โ breach notification
A "breach" includes more than a hacker: it includes any unauthorized
acquisition of, or unauthorized disclosure of, your unsecured health
information โ including a disclosure made without the authorization or
consent the law requires.
If a breach happens, we will โ running every applicable law in parallel and
obeying the strictest (fastest) clock among them:
- Tell you without unreasonable delay and no later than 60 calendar
days after we discover the breach (sooner where another law requires
it), by first-class mail, or by email plus an in-app message or banner
where you chose email notice, with a clear option to switch to mail. The
notice will say, clearly: what happened and when; when we discovered it;
the types of information involved (for example, lab results, medication
information, or the fact of app use); any third parties known to have
acquired it; what we are doing about it; and what you can do.
- Tell the Federal Trade Commission through its health-breach notice
process: at the same time as individual notice if 500 or more people are
affected; otherwise annually, within 60 days after the end of the year.
- Tell prominent media in any state where 500 or more residents are
affected, within the same 60 days.
- Tell state attorneys general and regulators wherever state breach
laws require it, within their deadlines.
- Substitute notice (a conspicuous homepage posting for 90 days plus a
toll-free number) if 10 or more affected people cannot be reached by the
methods above.
We maintain a written incident-response plan covering these steps, and our
processors are contractually required to notify us without unreasonable
delay and no later than 60 days after they discover a breach, identifying
each affected individual, so our clock to you can be met.
14. Our legal status โ stated honestly
- HIPAA does not govern the Cabinet. We are a direct-to-consumer service.
We are not a health plan, health care provider, or clearinghouse, and we do
not hold your information on behalf of one, so the HIPAA Privacy and
Security Rules do not apply to this service. That is why you will never see
us claim to be "HIPAA compliant" or "HIPAA certified" โ the claim would be
false. We voluntarily adopt safeguards modeled on recognized standards, and
we describe them as what they are (Section 11).
- California law treats us as a health care provider for confidentiality
purposes. Under the Confidentiality of Medical Information Act (CMIA),
a business organized to maintain medical information so individuals can
manage it is deemed a provider of health care for that Act. We accept
CMIA's duties in full: confidentiality, disclosure only with compliant
authorization or a legal exception, and storage that preserves
confidentiality (Sections 5, 6, 11).
- Other states' health-data laws apply to their residents โ including
Washington's My Health My Data Act, Nevada's consumer health data law, and
Connecticut's health data provisions โ and this Policy is written to
satisfy them (Sections 4, 5, 10).
- If this ever changes: if we ever offer the Cabinet on behalf of a
health plan or provider, HIPAA business-associate duties would attach to
that arrangement, and we would tell affected users and sign the required
agreements before it began. Nothing in this Policy is a HIPAA Notice of
Privacy Practices.
15. Subscriptions, the lifetime option, and payments
The Cabinet is free for the first six months. Your free six months begin
on the day paid access first launches, if your account already exists then;
if you join later, on the day your account is created. Testers are free
from the start and are not converted to paid while they hold tester status.
After the free period you may choose either door โ or neither, and stop.
Door 1 โ Monthly subscription: $1.11 per month, auto-renewing.
- Before you give billing information, the checkout screen will state, clearly
and conspicuously: the price ($1.11), the monthly frequency, that it renews
automatically, the exact date of the first charge (the day your free period
ends), how to cancel, and that the price may change only as described
below.
- You must give separate, affirmative consent to the auto-renewal itself โ
a distinct action naming the recurring charge. Agreeing to this Privacy
Policy or our Terms is not consent to be charged, and we never charge
merely for accepting a policy.
- After you subscribe, we send a retainable acknowledgment restating the
terms and cancellation route. We send a reminder before your free period
converts to the first charge, in time for you to cancel and pay nothing,
and an annual reminder while the subscription continues.
- Price changes: we will notify you at least 7 and no more than 30
days before any price or fee change takes effect, with cancellation
information in the same notice.
- Cancel as easily as you joined: if you subscribed online, you can cancel
online, at will and immediately, through a prominently placed direct
cancellation button in your account settings โ no phone call, no chat, no
obstructing steps. If we show you a save offer while cancelling, the
cancel button stays visible at the same time. Cancellation stops the next
renewal; amounts already charged for the current month are not refunded
except where the law requires.
- Consent records: we retain proof of your subscription consent for at
least 3 years, or 1 year after the subscription ends, whichever is longer.
Door 2 โ Lifetime access: $35, one time.
- Lifetime members are never moved behind a new paywall for the features
they bought, never subjected to later price changes, and never required to
convert to a subscription.
- If the Cabinet service ever shuts down, we will give lifetime members โ
and everyone โ at least
[90] days' advance notice, a full export of
all documents in their cabinets, and then delete the data per Section 12.
Your documents are never deleted without that export opportunity.
- The lifetime option and the subscription are presented side by side,
neither pre-selected, so your choice is genuinely yours.
Payment processing. On the web, payments are processed by Stripe;
your card details go to Stripe, not to our servers. If you buy inside a
future native iPhone or Android app, the purchase will be processed by
Apple's or Google's in-app billing under those platforms' rules, and the
checkout screen will say so before you pay.
16. Where the Cabinet is available
The Cabinet is offered only in countries we have cleared for launch. At
launch, that is the United States. Specifically:
- European Union / EEA: not offered at launch. EU health-data law
(GDPR Article 9) requires an explicit-consent regime, a data-protection
impact assessment, an EU representative, and transfer safeguards that we
will implement before โ not after โ offering the Cabinet there.
- Russia: not offered at launch. Russian law requires Russian citizens'
personal data to be collected and stored using databases located in
Russia; a consent sentence cannot change that, so Russian signups are
excluded until compliant infrastructure exists.
- Other countries are added only after a per-country review; a language
being available in the app (including Russian and Spanish) does not
mean the service is offered in every country where that language is
spoken, and we do not market the Cabinet into countries where it is not
offered.
- Signup checks (residence, location signals, and payment country) enforce
this section. If you move, your data remains yours โ Sections 10 and 12
still apply, and we will tell you if a move changes availability.
17. Changes to this Policy
If we change this Policy, we will post the new version in the app and on our
site, note the effective date, and โ for any change that reduces your
privacy, expands sharing, or alters the promises in Section 3 โ notify you in
advance and obtain any consent the law requires before the change applies to
information already collected. The Section 3 promises cannot be weakened for
data already in your cabinet without your consent.
