HIPAA applies to any circumstance around handling PHI. We handle your self-reported survey data, and microbiome data as PHI. We do NOT have to be a "covered entity" to apply HIPAA compliant protocols to our data handling. It's an additional security measure we take in handling your PHI. |

HIPAA does not apply at all as you are not a covered entity under HIPAA, stop lying.

Yeah, but that's just your current choice. You (more or less) claimed you were obligated to abide by HIPAA, but that's a lie, you are not.
I know you though nobody would call you out on this, but I am, because I understand the law. Please be upfront when asked, and stop lying.
