I discovered that the Omron Connect iOS app uploads all historical Apple Health data (not just data from their devices) the moment you grant it access. This includes third-party entries, with zero disclosure in their privacy policy. I confirmed it via a GDPR request — they’re storing years of unrelated health records. They also claim they can keep it forever, even if you delete your account.
Thank you for sharing this. I work in telehealth and in the U.S. at least, most patients using these devices have no idea what data they're sharing and who they're sharing the data with.
