# Security & Privacy Scorecard

## HealthCloud

## What This Means for You

Build 1.3.0 stores health and medical records on the device and syncs them to the user's own iCloud account only, with no behavioral analytics or advertising SDKs present in this build. Records are stored without app-layer encryption and may be readable from unencrypted device backups, though this was not observed at runtime.

## Recommendation: Solid

Build 1.3.0 keeps health and medical records local and under the user's own iCloud control. CITT assesses this build as Solid: the data storage design is privacy-protective and the network and code safety profiles are strong, though adding app-layer encryption for stored health records would raise the overall data protection posture.

**Best For:** People who want their personal health records, appointment notes, and medical documents organized on their device and synced to their own iCloud account.

## Method and Limitations

Static analysis only. CITT reviewed the code of this build without running the app, so runtime behavior was not observed. The findings below describe the analyzed build and may not reflect server-side controls or later versions. CITT makes no determination about compliance with any law or platform policy; it reports what the artifacts contain and cites the published guidance so a reader can compare.

## Key Findings

**Data Security:** 1 finding (1 high)

**Network Security:** 0 findings

**Code Safety:** 0 findings

**Privacy:** 2 findings (2 medium)

## Privacy Concerns

### What Leaves the Device

Subscription and purchase data may be sent to RevenueCat servers for subscription and purchase management; runtime network traffic was not observed.

### What Stays on the Device

- Health metrics, medical appointment records, and document attachments: processed on the device and synced to the user's own iCloud account only. No evidenced flow to developer servers was identified for this data.

### Third-Party Data Sharing

**Third parties that may receive data from the app:**
- RevenueCat - subscription and in-app purchase management
- Lottie - user interface animation rendering (no data sharing identified)

## Understanding the Scores

**Security:** 72/100
**Privacy:** 76/100

### Security Breakdown

- **Data Security:** 47/100. Health and medical records in this build are stored without an additional app-layer cipher. Unencrypted device backups may expose those records if the backup itself is not encrypted, though this was not tested.
- **Network Security:** 100/100. Network connections in this build use HTTPS with default App Transport Security enforced. RevenueCat network traffic uses strong industry-standard encryption.
- **Code Safety:** 100/100. No unsafe code patterns were identified in this build. External links open in a sandboxed Safari view with no JavaScript bridge.

### Privacy Breakdown

- **Data Collection:** 82/100. Health and medical data is processed on the device and stays within the user's own iCloud account. No behavioral analytics or advertising SDKs are present in this build.
- **Data Sharing:** 88/100. Sharing is limited to RevenueCat for subscription management. No advertising networks or data-broker connections were identified.
- **User Control:** 80/100. Health records remain in the user's iCloud account. App-layer encryption for stored records, if added, would give users stronger protection over data accessibility in backup scenarios.

## Positive Security Features

- Health and medical data stays on the device and syncs only to the user's own iCloud account; no flow to developer servers was evidenced.
- No behavioral analytics or advertising SDKs are present in this build.
- Network connections in this build use HTTPS with default App Transport Security enforced.
- RevenueCat network traffic uses strong industry-standard encryption.
- No custom URL schemes or universal links are present in this build, reducing the external input surface.
- External links open in a sandboxed Safari view with no JavaScript bridge.

## Areas for Improvement

### Disclosure Observations

1. **App Privacy Manifest**
   Apple's required-reasons API documentation (developer.apple.com, retrieved 2026-08-13) lists several APIs that require a declared usage reason in a PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy file. Build 1.3.0 does not include an app-level privacy manifest. Adding one could make the App Store privacy label more complete by explicitly declaring the APIs the build references.

2. **AdServices Attribution and AppTrackingTransparency**
   Build 1.3.0 links the AdServices framework but does not link AppTrackingTransparency. Apple's App Store guidelines (developer.apple.com, retrieved 2026-08-13) recommend that apps using AdServices for attribution also implement AppTrackingTransparency to present a consent prompt before attribution measurement occurs. Whether AdServices attribution is used at runtime was not observed.

### Security Enhancements

1. **App-Layer Encryption for Health Records**
   Industry practice for health data recommends applying an application-layer cipher to records stored on the device, so that an unencrypted device backup does not expose the stored data. Adding this protection would strengthen the Data Security rating meaningfully.

## Technical Context

**App Type:** Personal health records tracker (sensitive personal data)
**Classes Analyzed:** 33,734
**Third-Party Services:** 2 (RevenueCat, Lottie)
**Context Tags:** health, sensitive_data
