PRIVACY & TERMS · LAST UPDATED 12 NOVEMBER 2026

Privacy and terms of use

By using the VirChue Bio platform you agree to these terms. Please read them before you use it with your own data.

Research use only. The platform is not a medical device. Its results are exploratory model outputs; they are not calibrated patient risk estimates and must not be used to diagnose, treat or make decisions about any person.

Your files and data

Vessel geometry, case settings and simulation results are processed in your web browser on your own computer. The platform has no upload service: your files are not sent to the team or stored on our servers. Exports and feedback files are saved to your computer, and nothing is shared unless you choose to share it.

The website is hosted on GitHub Pages. Like any website host, it receives standard web request information such as your IP address and browser type. The community forum is hosted on GitHub Discussions; posts there are public and are covered by GitHub's own terms and privacy statement.

Do not use files that identify a person. Remove names, dates, record numbers and scan metadata before importing a geometry or sharing an export.

All rights are reserved. Using the platform does not give you any licence to it other than the right to use it through this website under these terms.
  3. No copying or reverse engineering. You must not copy, download for redistribution, modify, decompile, disassemble or reverse engineer the platform, or try to extract or reconstruct its models, algorithms or parameters.

  4. Your results. You keep the rights to your own data. If you publish results produced with the platform, please acknowledge VirChue Bio and cite the team's publications.
  5. No warranty. The platform is a research beta provided "as is", without warranties of any kind. To the extent permitted by law, the team and its institutions are not liable for any loss arising from its use.
  6. Changes. We may change, suspend or withdraw the platform or these terms at any time. The date at the top of this page shows when they last changed.
