The Say Yes! COVID Test Digital Assistant captures general data about the frequency with which the Digital Assistant tool is used, any results recorded, and any images of test results you take using your smartphone camera. If you use the tool on behalf of yourself and a family member, you can choose a nickname to maintain a diary of your results individually for your convenience. The tool does not use any identifying information about you outside the program. Any data that is shared outside the program will be anonymous and not tied to your name, address, phone number, or any information that identifies you individually.
