3. AI Processing

Your documents are processed using third-party AI services (Anthropic Claude and/or OpenAI) to extract information and generate appeal letters. These services process your data according to their own privacy policies and data processing agreements:

  • Resend — for email delivery
  • Vercel — for hosting and storage
  • PubMed/NCBI — search queries only (no personal data sent)

7. HIPAA Considerations

Overturn is a self-advocacy tool used directly by patients. As a tool that helps individuals exercise their own rights, we are not a HIPAA covered entity or business associate. However, we implement security measures appropriate for handling sensitive health information:

  • Encrypted data transmission (HTTPS/TLS)
  • Access-controlled document storage
  • Automatic data deletion after retention period
  • No sharing of health information for marketing purposes

8. Your Rights

You have the right to:

  • Request access to your personal data
  • Request deletion of your data
  • Request a copy of your data in a portable format
  • Opt out of any future communications

9. Security

We implement industry-standard security measures including encryption in transit and at rest, access controls, and regular security reviews. However, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure.

10. Children

The Service is not intended for use by individuals under 18. We do not knowingly collect information from children.
