Trust, Privacy, and Responsible Technology
Trust Comes First
OmugwoCare supports mothers and families during a deeply personal season of life.
That means trust must come first.
OmugwoCare is designed to collect only the information needed to support care navigation, caregiver matching requests, app updates, pilot coordination, service improvement, and communication with families, caregivers, partners, and employers.
We Keep the Mother at the Center
OmugwoCare is mother-first.
The goal is not to turn postpartum support into a cold data system.
The goal is to help mothers build their village, create a 40-Day Mother Care Plan, organize support, request caregiver matching when available, and receive practical non-medical support.
Data Minimization
OmugwoCare should only collect information that is reasonably needed for the stated purpose.
Forms should not collect:
Privacy and Consent
OmugwoCare uses consent-based communication.
Forms should include a consent checkbox before submission.
Users should be told why information is being collected and how OmugwoCare may use it.
OmugwoCare should provide clear links to:
De-Identified Reporting
OmugwoCare may use de-identified and aggregated information for:
Partner reports should not include individual mother, family, caregiver, employee, or user information without proper consent and legal review.
Responsible Technology
Future OmugwoCare technology may help with:
Future AI-assisted tools must not diagnose, treat, clinically monitor, predict clinical risk, replace human support, or replace licensed providers.
User Control
Users should be able to:
Human Review
OmugwoCare should keep human review in important support workflows.
Caregiver matching, support navigation, referral suggestions, and pilot reporting should be designed with human oversight.
Technology should support the mother and the care team. It should not replace judgment, compassion, family communication, or licensed professional care.
Non-Medical Scope
OmugwoCare provides non-medical postpartum support and care navigation.
OmugwoCare is not a medical provider, home health agency, nursing service, therapy provider, diagnostic tool, emergency service, clinical monitoring service, or replacement for doctors, nurses, doulas, lactation consultants, therapists, hospitals, or licensed providers.
