Abstract

The present disclosure relates to techniques for receiving glucose data from a continuous glucose sensor and controlling the use and redistribution of that data so it is used in an intended manner. In one aspect, a method includes preparing data including glucose levels using a continuous glucose sensor unit; wirelessly transmitting the data relating to the glucose levels to a display device from the continuous glucose sensor unit; automatically forwarding the data relating to the glucose levels from the display device to a cloud computing architecture; and storing the data relating to the glucose levels in separate groups at the cloud computing architecture.
