   • telephone or fax numbers or contact information
   • e-mail addresses
   • unique identifying numbers (e.g. UR, MRN, HID etc..)
   • vehicle identifiers
   • medical device identifiers (e.g serial numbers)
   • web or internet protocol addresses containing any link to the patient
   • biometric data
   • facial photograph or comparable image
   • names of relatives
   • date of the study

   Additionally, if a case is, for one reason or another, unique in such a way that could lead to the identification of an individual from the images alone, then it should not be uploaded. This means that a case that has, for example, been featured in the media or is unusually rare in diagnosis or presenting symptoms is usually inappropriate for upload. Similarly, the textual information accompanying the text should also be devoid of identifying information, and devoid of other unnecessary information which could aid in the identification of a patient.

   Furthermore, in some circumstances, for example, if you practice in a small community, even relatively common conditions may be identifiable.

   We, therefore, urge you to err on the side of caution and avoid uploading this kind of data when in doubt.

   IMPORTANT NOTE: Our privacy policy does not override the individual policies of institutions, and users should ensure that they are using images within their local guidelines.

   We take patient privacy very seriously, and failure to abide by these rules constitutes a breach of our privacy policy and Terms of Service. If you upload a case containing patient information, or from which a person is otherwise reasonably identifiable, your case will be deleted from the Platform immediately upon our becoming aware of its existence and we may take such action against you as permitted under the Terms of Service.

   7.1 ANONYMIZATION PROTECTION AND RESPONSIBILITY

   The complete anonymization of medical data is essential to our platform's operation. As detailed in our Terms of Service under "Downstream Use Obligations":

   a) Users must maintain perpetual respect for data anonymization and must not attempt to break this anonymization through any technical means including data combination, cross-referencing, or re-identification techniques.

   b) If any user discovers that anonymization of a dataset has been compromised, they must immediately notify us at ivana.nedic@easymed.ai and cease use of the affected dataset.

   c) The original contributor of a dataset retains responsibility for ensuring proper anonymization at the time of contribution.

   d) EasyMedAi provides the platform for sharing but makes no warranties regarding the quality of anonymization and bears no responsibility for any breach of anonymization, whether caused by technical vulnerabilities, user actions, or other factors.

   e) The downstream use obligations in our Terms of Service require users to pass these same obligations to any third parties with whom they share data from our platform.

   For complete details regarding responsibility and liability for anonymization, please refer to the "Data Anonymization and Downstream Obligations" section of our Terms of Service.

   If you become aware of any case from which you feel you (as a patient) or another person is reasonably identifiable, please contact us immediately at ivana.nedic@easymed.ai

Also read the EasyMedAi Code of Conduct which gives a general overview and states our standards and how we wish the community behaves.

EasyMedAi's purpose is to help the EasyMedAi Community work together to advance Open, Collaborative, and Responsible Machine Learning applied to Medicine and Healthcare. EasyMedAi's achievements are only possible thanks to the awesome Community on our Platform.

We value these relationships and aim to maintain an environment where people feel welcome and supported and get the most out of their contributions and experiences. Therefore, we created the following Content Guidelines and Policy (these "Guidelines") for our Platform and its Users.

These Guidelines aim to outline EasyMedAi's actions to protect our Community on our Platform. Our goal is to enable our Community to flag types of Content with a higher risk of harming people so we may give it extra scrutiny according to the Guidelines that follow.

Please read these Guidelines as they contain important information about the Content we authorize to be posted on our Platform.

These Guidelines are a policy incorporated into our Terms of Service, which is a binding agreement between us and you. You should also carefully review all of our other guidelines, policies, and documents available on our Website, including our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.

By accessing or using our Platform, you consent to all of these Guidelines and our other policies and terms. So, if you do not agree with any of those, please do not access or use our Platform.

We may change or update these Guidelines from time to time. Changes will be effective 10 days following posting the updated Guidelines on the Website. If you continue using our Platform 10 days following such posting, that means you accept those changes.

A few definitions

Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meaning assigned in our Terms of Service, Privacy Policy and all other policies available on our Website.

"Content" refers to any material posted, displayed, or accessed on our Website or Hub, including but not limited to code, data, text, graphics, images, applications, or software you, we, or any third party provide or make available.

Content types may include:

• "ML Artifacts": Code and assets hosted as EasyMedAi Repositories, including Models, Datasets;
• "Community Content": Content that can be found in the Community section of the EasyMedAi Platform, including discussions, comments, and usernames, as well as related documentation such as READMEs, model cards, data cards, pull requests, and merges.

"Community" refers to all Users of the EasyMedAi Platform, including EasyMedAi personnel.

"Discussions Tab" refers to a collaborative feature where the Community can discuss specific Repositories, including providing feedback, brainstorming ideas and opening pull requests for improvements.

"EasyMedAi" refers to our company, which may perform its obligations through its affiliates, directors, subsidiaries, contractors, licensors, officers, agents and/or employees.

"Platform" or "EasyMedAi Hub", or "Hub" refers to the hosting platform where Users can build, benchmark, share, version and deploy Repositories, which may include Models and Datasets.

"Repository" refers to a data structure that contains all of the project files and the entire revision history.

A Repository may be:

• "Public": anyone on the internet can see it, but only you or members of your organization can make changes;
• "Private": only you or members of your organization can see and make changes to the Repository; New Users need to join the maintaining organization in order to both see the Repository and access its Content.
• "Gated": Gated Repositories and their Community Content are visible to everyone, but access to their ML artifacts (data, model weights) requires either accepting conditions in a click-through form or approval by the Repository maintainers.
• "Disabled": a Repository that has its access blocked to all Community members except its owner.

"Repository Label" refers to a label assigned to a Repository. For example:

• "Not For All Audiences" (NFAA): Content that EasyMedAi or the Repository's authors have determined may not be suitable for all Community members.

"Team" or "EasyMedAi Team" refers to EasyMedAi personnel.

How do we assess whether Content follows our Guidelines?

These Guidelines address two categories of content.

Some Content is deemed broadly inappropriate for the Platform, and will be removed and may lead to further consequences for the Users depending on severity. Such Content is covered in the Restricted Content section and will usually be addressed directly by the EasyMedAi Team.

Some Content requires an iterative approach to determine whether and under what conditions it may be hosted on the Platform. Such Content is covered in the Moderated Content section and will usually be addressed in collaboration with both the Repository owner and any concerned party, as part of our decision-making process. Direct interaction fosters communication and clarification among interested parties, and consequently, might improve the Repository's code and documentation quality. The three main aspects we will pay attention to are: the origin of the ML artifact, how the ML artifact is handled by its developers, and how the ML artifact has been used.

Restricted Content

We do not tolerate the following Content on our Platform:

• Unlawful, defamatory, fraudulent or intentionally deceptive Content, including, but not limited to coordinated or other inauthentic behavior, disinformation, phishing or scams;
• Content that harms others;
• Content promoting discrimination (see our Code of Conduct), or hate speech;
• Content harassing, demeaning, or bullying;
• Sexual content used or created for harassment, bullying, or without explicit consent of the people represented;
• All sexual content involving minors;
• Content that promotes or glorifies violence or the suffering or humiliation of another;
• Content that promotes or induces unlawful or fraudulent currencies, securities, investments, or other transactions;
• Content published without the explicit consent of the people represented;
• Spam, such as advertising a product or service, or excessive bulk activity;
• Cryptomining practices;
• Content that infringes or violates any rights of a third party or an applicable License;
• Content that violates the privacy of a third party;
• Content that violates any applicable law or regulation;
• Content that attempts to transmit or generate code that is designed to disrupt, damage or gain unauthorized access to a computer system or device;
• Content that is malware, a trojan horse or virus, or other malicious code;
• Proxies that are primarily designed to bypass restrictions imposed by the original service provider;
• Content that promotes high-risk activities, including but not limited to, weapons development, self-harm, suicide, gambling, plagiarism, scams or pseudo-pharmaceuticals.

For any Content not listed above that requires our attention, we will decide on a case-by-case basis whether it is to be restricted or whether it is to be moderated as described in the following section.

Furthermore, if we become aware that personal information belonging to individuals below the age of 13 has been collected without parental consent, we will take appropriate action to remove this data from our Platform (see § 8 of our Privacy Policy).

Moderated Content

In addition to Restricted Content, Moderated Content may warrant extra scrutiny and is handled through a collaborative iterative approach that allows us to classify the Content and respond accordingly. This includes Content that has a higher risk of causing harm, such as Content with strong dual-use potential, or Content whose legal status depends on the specifics of how it is shared, among others. Content that is reported by the Community on such grounds using the community flagging feature (see below) triggers the moderation process.

To guide this iterative process, we hold consent as a core value. While existing regulations do protect people's rights to work, image, and data, new ways of processing information enabled by Machine Learning technology are posing new questions with respect to these rights. In this evolving legal landscape, prioritizing consent not only supports forethought and more empathy toward stakeholders but also encourages proactive measures to address cultural and contextual factors.

We prioritize collaborative solutions for both ML Artifacts and Community Content (see definitions above) that involve the owner of the Repository whenever possible, especially in cases where modifications or additional guardrails can help the Content meet the Guidelines.

ML Artifacts

When Content is reported, we typically allow approximately 72 hours for the Repository owner to respond. In case of non-engagement or other circumstances, the EasyMedAi Team may trigger unilateral actions. Specifically, we identify two levels of intervention:

A. Community features: in order to reduce the risk of problematic outcomes, we may require Users sharing Content to leverage the following three mechanisms. These are not necessarily sequential and can be required independently or in conjunction. For transparency, discussions occur in the public Discussions Tab.

1. Documentation

   We publicly ask the Repository owner to clearly identify risk factors in the text of the Model or Dataset cards, and to add the "Not For All Audiences" tag in the card metadata.

2. Gating

   We publicly ask the Repository owner to leverage the Gated Repository feature to control how the Artifact is accessed.

3. Private

   We publicly ask the Repository owner to make the artifact private to an Organization, in order to manage who sees and can use it.

B. "Not-for-all-Audiences" tag: out of consideration for other Users of the Hub, we request you flag applicable Content via the "Not For All Audiences" tag and in the Repository's card metadata, as it will allow Users of the Hub to choose whether they see it or not by default. The EasyMedAi Team may also tag the at-issue Repositories of Content if they meet any of the following criteria.

Flagged content should include, but should not be limited to: - Sexual Content - Determining whether the Content is "sexual" can be subjective, cultural, and context-dependent. However, criteria include but are not limited to: - Depictions of nudity or partial nudity. - Sexual topics or themes.

C. EasyMedAi tools: when an ML Artifact is deemed to pose too high a risk even with the above guardrails, the EasyMedAi Team may take direct action. The following three actions are not necessarily sequential and can occur independently. Discussion of these actions takes place in the Discussions Tab.

1. Downgrade

   We open a public discussion raising the issue and asking for feedback. We limit the artifact's visibility across the Hub in the trending tab and in feeds.

2. Private

   We open a public discussion raising the issue and asking for feedback. We make the Repository private so only the owner can see or access it.

3. Disable

   We open a public discussion raising the issue and asking for feedback. We disable the Repository, which will still be visible with its documentation and Discussions Tab discussions, but the ML artifacts can only be accessed by the owner.

Community Content

In order to keep a welcoming and safe environment on our Platform, we also take a collaborative approach to moderating Community Content. In addition to respecting Content restrictions outlined above, Community Content needs to follow our Code of Conduct. The following three measures may be taken when it fails to do so; they are not necessarily sequential and can occur independently:

1. Friendly Warning

   A private, written warning from the EasyMedAi Team, providing clarity around the nature of the Content and an explanation of why the behavior was inappropriate.

2. Warning with Consequences

   A warning with consequences including hiding or closing current discussions and permanent deactivation in case of continued behavior. We might also restrict your posting in the Discussions Tab for 48h.

3. Discussions Tab Deactivation

   A deactivation from any public interaction within the Discussions Tab on the Platform.

How can you report Content?

We encourage collective responsibility in order to maintain a healthy and thriving Community. The Discussions Tab allows you to bring issues to the attention of the Community by opening discussions within each Repository, proposing Pull Requests to modify its Content, and suggesting ways to address the problems. If you encounter harmful Content, you can directly flag it via the "Report" button on the Hub. This action will open a public discussion in the Discussions Tab and ping the EasyMedAi Team, who will act accordingly to the given rules.

In addition, in some situations, the EasyMedAi Team may flag Content to reflect requests or concerts expressed through other channels (e.g., via email or social media). Depending on the severity of the issue we may leverage the mechanisms described above, while remaining active in moderating the communication as mediators between different entities involved.

Finally, please note that reports are Community Content and are themselves subject to these Guidelines. Abusive uses of the flagging feature, including but not limited to spamming or harassment, will not be tolerated.
