PEOPLE & PRIVACY · Workflow idea

Treat body images as private and never use an image-based guess as a health finding.

For authorized work involving images a person knowingly submits, comparison notes, and any health-related interpretation, prepare a private image comparison for the subject to inspect, without making a medical assessment. Palm images and inferred traits can be sensitive and unreliable. Obtain explicit informed consent, limit access and retention, do not infer diagnosis or identity, explain uncertainty, avoid storing unnecessary images, and direct health concerns to a qualified clinician. Explain information use and retention, obtain required consent, respect source and reuse rights, verify important details, and keep external or consequential actions under human approval.
