What is the goal of TousAntiCovid?
Testing and isolating people infected with COVID-19, alerting people who have been in contact with the sick is a major challenge to stop the spread of the virus. The application originally named StopCovid has been developed with this aim in mind: to prevent, while guaranteeing anonymity, people who have been in the vicinity of someone who has tested positive for COVID-19 so that they, too, can get tested and self-isolate if necessary.
The National Commission for Informatics and Liberties (CNIL) reviewed the evolution of the application on October 23 after giving an opinion in favor of the launch of the application StopCovid on 24 April 2020 and its conditions of implementation in an opinion of 26 May 2020. The CNIL considers that the application is useful in health and proportionate, with regard to the protection of our freedoms and personal data.
How does the app work?
Downloading the app
AllAntiCovid
on his smartphone and his use is on a voluntary basis. Installation is therefore not mandatory and is free of charge.
Once settled and activated (Bluetooth enabled and notifications accepted), the app sends an alert to users who have recently been in contact with someone who has voluntarily reported testing positive for coronavirus during:
5 minutes to less than 1 meter
15 minutes between 1 and 2 meters
The person alerted will then be able to consult their doctor to get tested quickly, to self-isolate while awaiting the results and to isolate if the test proves positive in order to break the chains of transmission of the virus. In case of positive result, the care taken and the action to be taken shall be explained to him.
In order to protect the unknown persons he would have known, a user of
AllAntiCovid
newly tested positive for COVID-19 can voluntarily declare it in the app by entering a code transmitted by your doctor or lab. An alert will then be sent to all users who have been in close contact with him the previous days.
Transmitted data and privacy
The application
AllAntiCovid
uses the Bluetooth signal to detect a nearby smartphone and does not use the location of people by GPS data. It will not be able to tell where someone has gone.
The data transmitted is completely anonymous. It is not possible to know the identity of the user of the application. It does not have an authentication system at installation time. The application
AllAntiCovid
generates only aliases that are not associated with an identified person. They are stored temporarily (15 days) on the smartphone and transmitted to other smartphones in the immediate vicinity.
