[Purpose/significance] To analyze the safety situation of privacy policy based on popular mobile health applications and propose to improve the privacy protection mechanism. [Method/process] 104 privacy policy texts of mobile health applications were selected as research objects through three rounds of screening. The content of the text was analyzed based on the content analysis method, and evaluated by a comprehensive evaluation system. [Result/conclusion] The overall evaluation score of mobile health apps’ privacy policy is relative low, with the average score of 44.58 (100 full marks). Privacy policy needs to be improved in terms of content normatively and completeness. Some apps have the situation of excessive information collection and personal health privacy data abuse. The suggestions are proposed from 3 aspects, including optimizing the privacy policy design of apps, standardizing the privacy policy evaluation and supervision mechanism, and improving the legal environment for protecting users’ health privacy information.
