3. Voice & Audio Data Collection
As part of its core functionality, Orva may capture voice inputs and user commands initiated by a predefined wake-word trigger (“Hey Orva”). This voice-enabled interaction is designed to support clinical workflow automation, reduce manual documentation burden, and facilitate safe, hands-free operation in surgical environments.
Purposes of Collection
- Voice data collected after wake-word activation may be used for the following limited and lawful purposes:
- Improving System Accuracy: To enhance Orva’s speech recognition engine and improve real-time response reliability across varied clinical scenarios.
- Accent Adaptation: To increase comprehension and transcription accuracy for regional English dialects and healthcare terminology commonly used in UAE settings.
- Feature Optimization: To ensure the platform delivers relevant, context-aware responses that align with surgical workflows and patient safety priorities.
Privacy & Safeguards
All voice samples used for system learning are:
- Captured only after wake-word activation, ensuring user intent and minimizing incidental collection.
- Irreversibly de-identified before being used for AI model training or performance testing. Once de-identified, voice data cannot be linked back to any individual, user account, or healthcare encounter.
- Encrypted at rest using AES-256 encryption and stored in secure, UAE-based environments in accordance with ADHICS standards.
- Access-controlled using strict, role-based permissions limited to authorized RAIN Technology ME LTD personnel.
- Audited through periodic internal reviews and third-party assessments to validate compliance with the UAE Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL) and Abu Dhabi Healthcare Information and Cyber Security Standard (ADHICS v2).
No voice data—whether raw or de-identified—is used for advertising, profiling, or sold to external entities under any circumstances.
4. User Consent and Data Use
RAIN Technology ME LTD processes personal and clinical data within the Orva platform in accordance with the UAE Personal Data Protection Law (Federal Decree Law No. 45 of 2021) (“PDPL”), the Abu Dhabi Healthcare Information and Cyber Security Standard (ADHICS v2), and relevant guidance issued by the Department of Health – Abu Dhabi (DoH).
Primary Lawful Basis – Direct Clinical Use
Pursuant to PDPL Article 4(1)(b), the collection and processing of personal data—including voice recordings and session metadata—is considered lawful when necessary for the provision of healthcare or treatment, without requiring additional patient consent. Orva’s use in surgical environments for real-time documentation, workflow support, and clinical safety alerts falls under this provision.
Secondary Uses – Model Training & Analytics
For purposes beyond direct care, such as AI model refinement, feature development, or clinical workflow benchmarking, Orva relies on one of the following lawful bases:
- PDPL Article 4(1)(a) – Explicit consent: Consent is obtained from patients during the facility’s general consent process, and such consent must be documented by the healthcare institution.
- PDPL Article 4(11) – Anonymization: If personal identifiers are irreversibly de-identified, the processing may occur without consent, provided the data cannot be re-associated with any individual.
RAIN Technology ensures that all data used for secondary purposes undergoes rigorous de-identification processes in accordance with ADHICS and industry best practices.
5. Messaging & Attribution
To ensure operational integrity, clinical accountability, and accurate workflow traceability, Orva systematically logs and attributes all user interactions within the platform—including but not limited to voice commands, button presses, navigation events, and session activities—to the authenticated user account performing the action.
These logs are:
- Tied to named user accounts provisioned through the Orva Admin Panel and authenticated under role-based access controls
- Time-stamped and session-bound, ensuring traceability of events within each intraoperative interaction
- Used to support operational coordination, such as real-time case management, room transitions, or handoffs between clinical staff
- Instrumental for auditing, incident reconstruction, and quality assurance, especially in environments where multiple users may interact with a single shared device or room-based deployment
All activity logs are classified as Confidential under Orva’s data management policy and are protected using industry-standard encryption and access control mechanisms. Logs are retained in accordance with the healthcare facility’s data retention policy and are not used for performance evaluation or disciplinary purposes unless directed by the institution or required under applicable UAE law.
Orva’s attribution framework aligns with ADHICS v2 requirements for auditability and PDPL mandates for lawful and transparent processing of user-related data in healthcare systems.
6. User Rights under UAE Law
In accordance with the UAE Personal Data Protection Law (Federal Decree Law No. 45 of 2021) and ADHICS v2, individuals whose data is processed via the Orva platform are entitled to exercise specific rights concerning their personal and health-related data. These rights may be subject to institutional policies, medical record retention requirements, and applicable healthcare regulations.
Subject to the clinical context and lawful limitations, you may:
- Request access to your personal data that has been collected, including voice interactions, session metadata, and account-related activity logs
- Request rectification of inaccurate or outdated personal data stored by Orva or request erasure of data where appropriate and permissible by law
- Withdraw consent to the use of your voice data for non-essential, non-clinical purposes such as product improvement or AI model training, provided such data has not already been irreversibly de-identified
- Object to processing, where the processing is based solely on legitimate interest and does not impact the delivery of medical care
- Request restriction of processing in situations where a dispute over data accuracy or lawful use exists
