- Nothing in TrueKin constitutes or should be treated as medical advice

- Never disregard or delay seeking professional medical advice based on anything displayed in TrueKin
- Medication dosages, timings, and interactions shown in TrueKin are based solely on information you enter; we do not verify them against medical databases or your current health status
- In a medical emergency, call emergency services (112) immediately. Do not use TrueKin
TrueKin Technologies Private Limited expressly disclaims all liability for health outcomes, missed doses, medication errors, or clinical consequences arising from use of or reliance on TrueKin.
4. Account Registration and Security
4.1 Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years old to create a TrueKin account. By registering, you represent that you meet this requirement. We do not knowingly allow users under 18 to create accounts. If we discover a user is under 18, we will delete their account.
4.2 Account Accuracy
You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information when registering and to keep it updated. You are responsible for the accuracy of all health information you enter.
4.3 Account Security
You are responsible for:
- Keeping your OTP and session credentials confidential
- All activity that occurs under your account
- Logging out of shared or borrowed devices
- Notifying us immediately at grievance@truekin.co.in if you suspect unauthorised access
TrueKin will never ask you for your OTP. Do not share OTPs with anyone.
4.4 One Account Per Person
You may not create accounts on behalf of other adults without their knowledge and consent. You may add family members to your care circle within the app. This is different from creating an account for them.
5. Consent for Health Data
5.1 Sensitive Personal Data
TrueKin collects and processes Sensitive Personal Data (SPDI) as defined under the IT (SPDI) Rules 2011, including health conditions, medications, allergies, and medical documents. Processing this data requires your explicit, specific, and informed consent, which you provide during account setup.
5.2 Managing Consent
You may view and manage your consents at any time from Settings → Privacy & Consent. You can withdraw consent for optional features (AI processing, marketing) at any time without affecting your account.
5.3 Required Consents
Consent for core data processing and health data storage is required to use TrueKin. If you withdraw these consents, you will need to delete your account as the service cannot be provided without them.
6. WhatsApp Communications
6.1 Consent
By registering your phone number with TrueKin, you consent to receive WhatsApp messages from us, including OTP verification codes, medication reminders (if you enable them), and important service notifications.
6.2 Delivery and Liability
WhatsApp message delivery is handled by Meta Platforms, Inc. and depends on your device having an active internet connection and WhatsApp installed. TrueKin is not responsible for non-delivery of WhatsApp messages due to factors outside our control, including WhatsApp service outages, device settings, or network issues.
6.3 Opt-Out
You may opt out of WhatsApp communications at any time by:
- Replying STOP to any WhatsApp message from TrueKin
- Adjusting your notification preferences in Settings → Notifications
Opting out of WhatsApp notifications does not affect your ability to use TrueKin. OTP messages required for login are necessary to verify your identity and cannot be opted out of without disabling your account.
7. AI Document Processing
7.1 What It Does
TrueKin can extract and structure information from uploaded medical documents using an AI language model provided by Sarvam AI, an Indian AI company. This makes it easier to review and organise your health records, while keeping this processing within India.
7.2 Explicit Consent Required
AI document processing is entirely optional and requires your separate, explicit consent. You can enable or disable this feature at any time from Settings → Privacy & Consent. You can use all other TrueKin features without enabling AI processing.
7.3 Accuracy
AI extraction is not 100% accurate. Extracted information may contain errors, omissions, or misinterpretations. You are responsible for:
- Reviewing all AI-extracted data before relying on it
- Correcting any inaccurate information
- Not using AI-extracted data for medical decisions without independent verification by a healthcare professional
7.4 Third-Party Processing
When you enable AI processing and upload a document, its contents are sent to Sarvam AI's processing infrastructure, located in India, so no document content leaves the country for this purpose. By enabling this feature, you consent to this transfer. Sarvam AI does not use your data to train AI models. See our Privacy Policy for details.
8. Family Sharing
8.1 Inviting Others
You may invite family members or trusted caregivers to view or co-manage health records. When you do:
- You control exactly what they can access (profile, medications, documents, history)
- You can revoke their access at any time
- The invited person can only see what you specifically permit
8.2 Your Responsibility for Shared Data
When you share health information with others, you are responsible for:
- Ensuring the people you invite are trustworthy
- Only sharing what is appropriate and necessary
- Promptly revoking access when it is no longer needed
8.3 Adding Family Members
If you add health information for a family member, you expressly represent and warrant that you have obtained their valid consent, or, if they are a minor, that you are their lawful parent or legal guardian with legal authority to manage their health information. TrueKin relies on this representation and may require additional verification of your relationship to that person at any time. You assume sole legal responsibility for the accuracy of data entered on their behalf and for the appropriateness of managing their information. A false representation of consent or guardianship is a violation of these Terms and may result in immediate account termination and legal liability under applicable law.
8.4 Profile Share Links
You may create time-limited, permission-scoped links to share your health profile with healthcare providers or others. You control the duration (2 hours to 30 days) and the content. You are responsible for who you share links with and must revoke links that are no longer needed.
9. Acceptable Use
You agree not to use TrueKin to:
- Violate any applicable law or regulation
- Enter false, fraudulent, or misleading health information
- Access or attempt to access another person's account without their permission
- Reverse-engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract source code from TrueKin

12. Third-Party Services

We are not responsible for the independent practices of these third parties beyond our agreements with them.
13. Service Availability
We aim to keep TrueKin available at all times but do not guarantee uninterrupted access. TrueKin may be temporarily unavailable due to scheduled maintenance, unexpected technical issues, or events beyond our reasonable control.
