Added data security information after QnA from community.

Added Data Security information to About section

Problem

Community members asked about the presence or sharing of any PII/PHI in the source code repository, so we added an answer.

Solution

Add a section addressing this question (No, we don't ship PII/PHI, and data is processed locally by users, and not shared over the network by the tool or library.)

Result

There is now an section addressing this question.

Test Plan

Static content approved by eCQM All-payer WG, merge checks passing.

This project originated from the CMS Open Source Community as a resource ACOs can use when preparing their patient records submission.

The DedupliFHIR project does not include or share any Personally Identifiable Information or Personal Health Information (PII/PHI) in this source code repository. All training and testing data we ship in the source code repository is ‘synthetic’ data, which is artificially generated. The tool itself uses only local data, uploaded by users on their own systems. The tool processes that data locally, and does not share that information over the network. Users control who that data is shared with after processing, and how it is shared, if at all.
