The UK won't use Apple and Google's coronavirus contact-tracing technology for its app, sparking privacy worries about how people's data will be used

Two crossed lines that form an 'X'. It indicates a way to close an interaction, or dismiss a notification.

NHSX, which is leading the app's development, confirmed to Business Insider on Monday that it was pressing ahead with an alternative model for its contact-tracing app, rather than integrating the system devised by Apple and Google. But the UK, France, and, until recently, Germany have clashed with Apple and Google over the privacy levels required to use their API.

"Before notifying possibly infected people, they want to do a 'sophisticated risk analysis' – this may require information that isn't available on people's phones. They also want the option of people providing additional information, which points at centralization but also massively increases the risk of function creep," said Boiten.
