Privacy Policy
Last updated: June 26, 2026 · Effective: April 1, 2026
How Mirae Health collects, uses, stores, and protects your personal data.
1. Introduction
Your privacy is important to Mirae AI Limited (“Mirae”, “we”, “us”, or “our”). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and disclose personal information when you use our website at www.miraehealth.com, our mobile applications, and any related services (collectively, the “Platform”).
Mirae AI Limited is a company incorporated in England and Wales with its registered office at Africa House, 70 Kingsway, London WC2B 6AH. We are registered with the UK Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) as a data controller.
Mirae provides an AI-powered patient companion and precision medicine platform for people living with complex chronic diseases, beginning with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD). We capture patient-reported data, integrate with health records and wearable devices, and use artificial intelligence to help patients better understand and manage their condition. Mirae does not provide medical or clinical services. We are a health technology and research company. Any clinical care is provided by your own independent healthcare providers.
This Privacy Policy applies to information we collect through the Platform, including via email, in-app messaging, and other electronic communications between you and Mirae. It does not apply to information collected by third parties, including any application or content that may link to or be accessible from the Platform.
This Privacy Policy is provided to explain how Mirae handles personal data. Where we rely on consent for specific processing activities, we will ask for that consent separately through the Platform or another appropriate channel. If you do not want us to process your personal data as described in this Privacy Policy, please do not use the Platform.
2. Legal Bases for Processing Your Data
Mirae processes your personal data in compliance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR), the Data Protection Act 2018, the EU General Data Protection Regulation (EU GDPR) where applicable, and other applicable data protection laws in the jurisdictions where we operate, including US state privacy laws. We rely on the following legal bases for processing your personal data:
- Consent (Article 6(1)(a) and Article 9(2)(a) UK/EU GDPR): We seek your explicit, informed consent before collecting your health data, sharing identifiable information with your physician, using identifiable information for specific research purposes, and accessing connected health records or wearable data where required. You may withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.
- Legitimate Interests (Article 6(1)(f) UK/EU GDPR): We process certain data where necessary for our legitimate interests, including improving the Platform, conducting de-identified research to advance treatment outcomes, and ensuring the security of our services, provided these interests are not overridden by your rights and freedoms.
- Performance of a Contract (Article 6(1)(b) UK/EU GDPR): We process data as necessary to provide you with the services you have requested through the Platform.
- Legal Obligation (Article 6(1)(c) UK/EU GDPR): We process data where required to comply with applicable laws and regulations.

De-identified data may be shared with academic and pharmaceutical research partners. You may opt out of future inclusion of your data in de-identified datasets by contacting us.
- Identifiable Research: If we wish to use your identifiable health data for a specific research study, we will seek your separate, explicit consent before doing so. You will be provided with clear information about the study, its purpose, and how your data will be used before you are asked to consent.

- To enforce our terms of service and protect the rights, property, and safety of Mirae, our users, and the public.
5. Sharing Your Data with Your Physician
A core part of Mirae’s mission is to empower you in your relationship with your healthcare provider. We will only share your identifiable health data with your physician or clinical care team with your explicit, prior consent. Before any sharing occurs:
- You will be clearly informed of what data will be shared.
- You will be asked to provide affirmative consent (opt-in) for each sharing instance or for an ongoing sharing arrangement.
- You may revoke consent at any time, and we will cease sharing prospectively.
When you consent, we may provide your physician with a summarised clinical profile, PRO trends, wearable insights, and AI-generated treatment-matching recommendations. Your physician remains solely responsible for any clinical decisions.
6. Disclosure of Your Information
We do not sell your personal data. We may disclose your information in the following limited circumstances:
- Clinical Partners (with your consent): Data shared with your designated healthcare providers to support your treatment, as described in Section 5.
- Research Partners: De-identified data shared with academic institutions, pharmaceutical companies, and other research organisations to advance scientific understanding and improve treatments. Where identifiable data is involved, only with your explicit consent.
- Service Providers: Third-party vendors and contractors who perform services on our behalf, such as cloud hosting, infrastructure, AI processing, analytics, customer support, email delivery, security, and compliance tooling. These providers are bound by contractual obligations to protect your data and use it only for the purposes we specify.
- AI Model Providers: To generate responses in our in-app chat companion, the messages you send and any health information you choose to share in chat are transmitted directly to one or more third-party AI model providers, currently OpenAI, Anthropic, and Amazon. These providers are contractually bound to protect your data, are prohibited from using your data to train their AI models, and may not use your data for advertising. No chat data is transmitted to these providers until you have provided affirmative, informed consent on the in-app consent screen shown the first time you open chat.
- Analytics Providers: We may use analytics providers, such as PostHog or similar services, to understand platform usage and improve the Platform.
- Corporate Transactions: In the event of a merger, acquisition, reorganisation, or sale of assets, your data may be transferred to the successor entity, subject to appropriate privacy protections.
- Legal Requirements: Where required by law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request, or where we believe disclosure is necessary to protect the rights, property, or safety of Mirae, our users, or others.
- With Your Consent: For any other purpose disclosed to you at the time of collection or for which you provide consent.
Where a third party processes personal data on Mirae’s behalf, we treat that party as a processor or sub-processor and require appropriate contractual safeguards, including confidentiality, security, data protection, and use limitations. We maintain internal records of material processors and sub-processors and review them as part of our vendor risk management and data protection compliance processes.
We do not share your personal data with advertisers. We do not display third-party advertisements on the Platform.
7. De-identification and Aggregation
We may create de-identified or aggregated data from your personal information. When we use the term “de-identified data,” we mean information that has been processed so that it cannot reasonably be used to identify you, in compliance with applicable de-identification standards, including UK/EU GDPR anonymisation standards and, where applicable, the HIPAA Safe Harbor or Expert Determination methods.
De-identified data is no longer considered personal data under applicable law. We may use and share de-identified data for research, analytics, product improvement, and publication purposes. If you wish to opt out of future inclusion of your data in de-identified datasets, you may contact us using the details in Section 17. We will honour your request prospectively; research already in progress or completed before your request may still include previously de-identified data.

Before fulfilling certain privacy rights requests, we may need to verify your identity or authority to act on behalf of another person. We use verification measures that are proportionate to the sensitivity of the data and the nature of the request.
9. Consent Framework
Mirae employs a layered consent model designed to give you granular control over your data:
- Platform Processing: We process data necessary to create and operate your account and provide the Platform.
- Health Data Consent: We request explicit consent for processing health data where required.
- Physician Sharing Consent: Separate, explicit opt-in consent is required before we share any identifiable data with your healthcare provider. You control which providers receive your data.

- Wearable and Third-Party Data Consent: You must affirmatively opt in before we access data from your wearable devices, EHR systems, or other connected health services.
- AI Chat Consent: You must affirmatively opt in before chat messages are transmitted to third-party AI providers.
All consents are freely given, specific, informed, and unambiguous. We do not use deceptive design patterns to obtain consent. You may review and manage your consent preferences at any time through the Platform’s privacy settings where available or by contacting us.
10. Data Retention and Account Deletion
You may delete your account at any time directly from within the app, on the Settings screen. The deletion flow runs entirely in-app and includes a confirmation step to prevent accidental deletion. You may also request deletion using the details in Section 17.
We retain your personal data for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you with our services. We also retain information where required for legal compliance, security, research governance, dispute resolution, or enforcement of our agreements.
| Data category | Retention period or criteria |
|---|---|
| Account data | Retained while your account is active and for a limited period after closure for account recovery, legal, security, and operational purposes. |
| Health records and patient-reported data | Retained while your account is active and as needed for service delivery, legal obligations, research governance, and dispute resolution. |

| Research data | De-identified or aggregate research data may be retained for the duration of the research program and related scientific, regulatory, or governance needs. |
| Backups | Retained according to Mirae’s backup retention schedule and deleted or overwritten in the ordinary backup lifecycle. |
Upon account closure or deletion request:
- We will delete your identifiable personal data from active databases within 30 days, unless retention is required or permitted by law, security, dispute resolution, research governance, or other legitimate grounds.
- De-identified data that has already been incorporated into research datasets or published results will not be deleted, as it cannot reasonably be linked back to you.
- Backups containing your data will be purged in accordance with our backup retention schedule, no longer than 90 days where technically and operationally feasible.
- Data required for legal compliance, dispute resolution, security, or enforcement of our agreements may be retained for the period required or permitted by applicable law.
11. Data Security
We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data from unauthorised access, loss, misuse, alteration, or destruction. These measures include:
- Encryption of data in transit and at rest.
- Access controls limiting data access to authorised personnel on a need-to-know basis.
- Regular security assessments, penetration testing, and vulnerability scanning.
- Employee training on data protection and information security.
- Incident response procedures for detecting, reporting, and responding to data breaches.
While we take commercially reasonable precautions to protect your data, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials. If you believe your account has been compromised, please contact us immediately using the details in Section 17.
12. International Data Transfers
Mirae AI Limited is based in the United Kingdom. As we provide services to users in the United States, EU/EEA, and potentially other jurisdictions, your personal data may be transferred to, stored, and processed in countries outside your country of residence, including the United States.
Where we transfer personal data outside the UK or EU/EEA, we use appropriate safeguards where required, including:
- UK International Data Transfer Agreements (IDTAs) or the UK Addendum to the EU Standard Contractual Clauses.
- EU Standard Contractual Clauses where applicable.
- Adequacy decisions or adequacy regulations, where applicable.
- Contractual, technical, and organisational safeguards, including access controls and encryption.
You may contact us for more information about the specific safeguards we apply to international transfers.
13. Children’s Privacy
The Platform is not intended for use by individuals under the age of 18 or the minimum age required by applicable law in the user’s jurisdiction. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If we become aware that we have collected personal data from a child without appropriate consent or authorization, we will take steps to delete that information promptly. If you believe we may have collected information from a child, please contact us using the details in Section 17.
14. Third-Party Links and Services
The Platform may contain links to third-party websites, applications, or services. This Privacy Policy does not apply to those third-party services. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party services you access through the Platform. Mirae is not responsible for the privacy practices of third parties.
15. Artificial Intelligence and Automated Processing
Mirae uses artificial intelligence and machine learning to analyse your health data and generate insights. These capabilities may include:
- Symptom pattern recognition and health trend analysis based on your PRO data and wearable signals.
- Treatment pattern analysis informed by your medication history and clinical profile.
- Summarised clinical profiles and trend analyses prepared for sharing with your physician with your consent.
- Identification of patient subgroups and bioclinical endotypes to advance research.
AI-generated outputs are not designed to replace the clinical judgment of your healthcare provider. No AI output from Mirae constitutes medical advice, a diagnosis, or a treatment recommendation. When we share AI-generated insights with your physician with your consent, we clearly label them as AI-generated so your provider understands the source and can apply their own clinical judgment.
15.1 Third-Party AI Providers for In-App Chat
Responses in our in-app chat companion are generated by third-party large language models provided by OpenAI, Anthropic, and Amazon. The messages you send and any health information you choose to share in chat are transmitted directly to these providers solely to generate the response shown back to you. OpenAI, Anthropic, and Amazon are contractually bound to protect your data, are prohibited from using your data to train their AI models, and may not use your data for advertising.
The first time you open chat, the app shows a data-use consent screen that discloses what is sent, who it is sent to, and how it is used. No chat data is transmitted to these providers until you have tapped “I agree” on that screen. If you do not consent, the chat companion will not send your messages to these providers.
15.2 How Our AI Models Are Trained
Our AI models are trained on de-identified, aggregated patient data. Your identifiable personal data is not used to train our general-purpose models unless you have provided separate, explicit consent to participate in a specific research initiative. We regularly evaluate our models for accuracy, bias, and clinical safety.
15.3 Automated Decision-Making
Mirae does not use automated processing, including AI, to make decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects on you without human involvement. Any clinical decisions remain the sole responsibility of your healthcare provider. Under UK/EU GDPR Article 22, you have the right not to be subject to solely automated decision-making that significantly affects you. If you have questions or concerns about how AI is used in our Platform, or if you wish to request a human-readable explanation of an AI-generated insight, please contact us using the details in Section 17.
16. Privacy Notifications and Context-Specific Disclosures
In addition to this Privacy Policy, Mirae may provide just-in-time or context-specific notices when we collect, use, or share personal data in a specific way. These may include in-app consent screens, physician sharing notices, research participation notices, wearable or EHR connection notices, cookie notices, privacy policy update notices, and breach notifications where required.
We may provide these notices through the Platform, email, website notices, account settings, consent screens, or other appropriate channels.
17. Data Protection Contact and Privacy Lead

18. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, legal requirements, or other factors. If we make material changes, we will notify you by email, in-app notice, website notice, or another appropriate channel before the changes take effect where required. Material changes are reflected in the version history table at the top of this Privacy Policy.
If a change affects processing that requires consent, we will request consent separately before that processing begins or continues.
