Third-Party Providers: We partner with carefully vetted third-party vendors (e.g., cloud hosting providers, analytics services, payment processors) who assist in delivering our Services.

Consent-based Sharing: Personal data is shared with third parties only when explicitly authorized by you.

We employ comprehensive data protection strategies, including encryption at rest and in transit, secure server environments, strict access controls, regular audits, and ongoing training for our team members. Despite rigorous security practices, absolute security cannot be guaranteed due to the inherent risks of electronic data transmission and storage.
DocSplain retains personal information only for the duration necessary to fulfill specified purposes or comply with legal, regulatory, or professional standards. Clinical documentation processed by our Services is retained according to healthcare regulatory requirements and provider preferences. De-identified information may be maintained longer for research, analytical, or service-improvement purposes.
Our servers and primary operations are based in Canada. Information processed through our Services may be transferred internationally to jurisdictions with differing data protection standards. In such instances, we ensure compliance with relevant privacy laws and provide appropriate safeguards to protect your information.
Healthcare providers using DocSplain's Services are responsible for obtaining and managing patient consent as required by applicable law. Patients have the right to request access to, correct, restrict, or delete their personal information processed by DocSplain. Patients should direct these requests to their healthcare providers who will coordinate with DocSplain to fulfill these rights.
Our Services are not intended for individuals under 18 years old. If we become aware that personal information from minors has been inadvertently collected without appropriate consent, we will promptly delete such information.
We reserve the right to periodically update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our practices or applicable laws. We encourage users to regularly review this policy. Substantive changes will be communicated through direct notifications or prominent notices on our website.
