Data and privacy

Promosoin collects oral-health consultation data in Cameroon, entered voluntarily by dental surgeons. This page says what is collected, what never is, who sees what, where this data lives and for how long.

Last updated: 31 August 2026

No patient can be identified. An entry describes a consultation, never a person: no name, no date of birth, no contact details, no file number — nothing that could identify a patient, and nothing of the kind is asked of the practitioner. The same patient seen three times simply counts three times.

What an entry contains

The answers to the clinical questionnaire — age, sex, reason for the visit, treatments performed… — recorded as codes; the health district where the practitioner works; the date of the consultation; the language used. That is all.

What concerns practitioners

The practice name, optional. It helps find a contributor and spot duplicates — never to produce a per-practice analysis, which is not what the platform is for.
A random device identifier (set by the browser). It spots duplicates and how regular the collection is; it is linked to no identity.
An email address, only if you give it — to request access to your territory’s figures, or to join the administration team.

Who sees what

The administration team sees full entries — always without patient identity — to check the collection and export it. It is nominative, and each access can be removed in one gesture.
Recipients of a sharing link see aggregated figures, on a perimeter fixed at sending time that no address can widen — never an entry. Each link can be closed at any time.
The public sees aggregated results — the map, the summaries — and never a percentage computed on fewer than 30 answers.

Where the data lives

The database is hosted in Europe (Frankfurt, Germany); the site is served by Vercel and emails go through Resend. The database is backed up twice a day, encrypted, and sent to the team — volunteer work cannot be redone.

The platform and its statistics engine were developed by H3001 SRL, a company based in Belgium. The author is Hakim Abbes.

For how long

Entries, anonymous, are kept without limit: they are the map. Nothing in them is ever deleted by mistake — what must leave the screen is archived.
Console sessions last 30 days; sharing links, the duration chosen at sending time, revocable before that.
An access request is recorded nowhere but in the email received by the team.

Your rights

Cameroon’s law No. 2024/017 of 23 December 2024 on the protection of personal data gives you a right of access, rectification and objection over the data that concerns you — your practice name, your address, your device. Write to bonjour@promosoin-cameroun.com: the team answers, corrects and removes what must be removed.

Consultation entries, for their part, describe no identifiable person — that is precisely what lets them build a public map.
