Our Scientific Board's non-negotiable principles.
Scientific accuracy
Every formula rests on peer-reviewed published literature. Khamis-Roche (1994), Bayley-Pinneau (1952), Neyzi (2008), Tanner (1986).
Screening, not diagnosis
All AI + risk scores are not for clinical diagnosis. They point to pediatrician + endocrinologist + dietitian consultation.
KVKK + ethics
Children's data is sensitive — explicit parental consent is required. Right to deletion + portability preserved. Hetzner Germany, KVKK-compliant.
Transparency
Every prediction is presented with confidence interval. Error margin + limitations clearly stated. AI is not a "black box" — explainable design.
Body-image safe
No diet/weight-loss language for children. Child Growth platform and Coach Academy apply body-image safe communication standard.
Independence
Scientific Board decisions are independent of commercial + marketing pressure. Clinical advice always puts science first.
