The document proposes a privacy-preserving app for tracking contagious diseases. It works by having users install an app that tracks their location locally on their phone. When a new case is reported, health authorities upload the infected person's location history. The app then computes if and when the user may have come into contact with the infected person based on overlapping locations, while keeping all location data private. The goal is to notify potential exposures for informed decisions without surveilling individuals.
