3.  Application functionality

3.1. The User is not required to provide personal data to use the Application. The smartphone transmits encrypted IDs via Bluetooth to smartphones located nearby that also have this app installed. Each ID checksum is automatically deleted from the user's device two weeks after it is created.

If tested positive for coronovirus infection, a User can notify his/her contacts by sending a notification. To activate the notification, a user must enter the code received when passing PCR testing. The code will be sent to the MoH IS for verification of the confirmed positive result. After activating the notification, the app automatically and anonymously notifies other app users who have been in the immediate vicinity (less than 2 meters) for a long time (more than 15 minutes).

Users who received a notification can read the recommendations of the Ministry of Healthcare of the Republic of Kazakhstan on further actions in the app.
