Samsung Health Ties AI Consent to Record Deletion for 4 Data Categories

Summary
Samsung Health users are being told that refusing consent for AI training will stop account syncing and delete stored health data unless Samsung must retain it by law.
The notice covers four categories—health and wellness data, medication data, health records and cycle tracking data—and says Samsung will use them for AI training, modeling and human review.
Samsung also says users can withdraw consent later in the app’s privacy settings, but doing so triggers the same warning that synced data will be removed.
The policy sharpens a requirement reported a day earlier that linked consent to syncing, and now highlights a harsher trade-off as Samsung pushes AI health features ahead of its July 22 Unpacked event.
