 begun to adopt comprehensive privacy laws. For example, the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018, which took effect on January 1, 2020, gives California residents expanded rights related to their personal information, including the right to access and delete their personal information, and receive detailed information about how their personal information is used and shared. Similar laws have been passed or been proposed in other states and at the federal level, reflecting a trend toward more stringent privacy legislation in the United States. The enactment of such laws could have potentially conflicting requirements that would make compliance challenging.

Also, in our early market focus involving placing our products and providing services to medical facilities, we must also comply with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) if we handle protected health information (PHI) in the course of our commercial business operations. HIPAA imposes strict requirements for the use, disclosure, and safeguarding of PHI, including specific administrative, physical, and technical safeguards to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of PHI. Failure to comply with HIPAA can result in severe penalties, including substantial fines and even criminal charges. Therefore, we may need to take appropriate measures to ensure our HIPAA compliance and protect the privacy and security of PHI in our possession. Any non-compliance with HIPAA could result in harm to our business once we start conducting commercial operations and providing our services to our potential customers, including regulatory action, loss of customer trust, negative publicity, and financial damage.

Finally, the services we plan to provide to our potential customers involve the processing, storage, or transmission of their data, we may be required to comply with certain industry standards and regulations, such as SOC 2 (Service Organization Controls 2). SOC 2 is a widely recognized auditing standard developed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) that evaluates the effectiveness of a service provider’s controls over the security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy of customers’ data. To maintain SOC 2 compliance, we must undergo regular audits and assessments by independent auditors to demonstrate that our controls are designed and operating effectively to achieve the desired outcomes. Any deficiencies identified during the audit could result in remediation requirements, reputational damage, and potential impacts on our customers. Any non-compliance with SOC 2 could result in harm to our business, including regulatory action, loss of customer trust, negative publicity, and financial damage.

Despite our best efforts, we may not be successful in complying with the rapidly evolving privacy, data
