CareAI Privacy Policy
Last updated: August 19, 2025
This Privacy Policy explains how CareAI (“CareAI,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, and shares information when you use our websites, applications, and related services (collectively, the “Services”).
Plain language summary (not a substitute for the full policy): we collect account, device, and health‑related information to provide the Services, keep people safe, improve reliability, and meet legal requirements. You control your data and can access, correct, export, or delete it.
1. Who we are
Data controller: CareAI Co.
Contact: privacy@careai.com.
2. Scope
This policy applies to the Services and to individuals who use them (patients, caregivers, family members, and clinicians). If you use CareAI through a healthcare provider, we may process data as a processor on the provider's behalf subject to a Business Associate Agreement (BAA) or Data Processing Agreement (DPA).
3. Information we collect
We collect information you provide, information automatically, and information from integrations you connect.
A) You provide
- Profile & contact: name, email, phone, preferred language, emergency contacts.
- Health information you enter or authorize us to access: symptoms, medications, schedules, notes.
- Communications: messages, support requests, recorded voice notes (if you enable recording).
- Payment & subscription details (processed by third‑party payment providers—CareAI does not store full card numbers).
B) Automatically collected
- Device & app data: device model/OS, app version, unique identifiers, crash logs, performance metrics.
- Usage data: features used, buttons clicked, pages viewed, session timestamps, approximate location derived from IP.
C) From integrations you connect
- Wearables / health platforms (e.g., HealthKit / Google Fit, Bluetooth devices).
- EHR/EMR systems or clinic software (if your organization connects these).
We only access data you explicitly authorize.
4. Why we use your information (purposes & legal bases)
- Provide and secure the Services (perform the contract; legitimate interests).
- Care features such as medication reminders, adherence tracking, fall alerts, voice assistant, and sharing with approved caregivers (consent; vital interests; substantial public interest where permitted).
- Research and product improvement such as analytics, debugging, A/B testing (legitimate interests; consent where required).
- Communications like service messages, security alerts, and—with your opt‑in—marketing (consent; legitimate interests).
- Legal compliance including responding to lawful requests and enforcing terms (legal obligation; legitimate interests).
Special category / health data (GDPR): We process health data only with your explicit consent, to protect vital interests, or as permitted under a contract with your healthcare provider subject to appropriate safeguards (Art. 9 GDPR). You may withdraw consent at any time.
5. Sharing your information
We share information only with:
- Your authorized contacts (family, caregivers, clinicians) when you enable sharing.
- Service providers (cloud hosting, analytics, crash reporting, support). They may access data only to perform services for us under contract.
- Emergency services if you trigger SOS or we reasonably believe there is imminent risk to life or safety.
- Legal & compliance when required by law, to protect rights and safety, or in a corporate transaction (with notice and safeguards).
We do not sell your personal information and we do not use sensitive health data for targeted advertising.
6. International transfers
We may transfer data to countries with different privacy laws. Where we do, we use safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) and, for transfers to the U.S., participation in the EU‑U.S. Data Privacy Framework (DPF) (if certified). Copies of relevant safeguards are available upon request.
Note: The prior “Privacy Shield” framework has been replaced; we rely on SCCs and/or DPF where applicable.
7. Security
We use technical, organizational, and physical safeguards, including: TLS 1.3 in transit, encryption at rest for sensitive data, access controls, logging and monitoring, routine security testing, and incident response procedures. No method is 100% secure; we continuously improve our protections.
8. Retention
We retain data for as long as needed to deliver the Services and for legitimate purposes such as security, auditing, and legal compliance. Typical periods:
- Active accounts: retained while your account is active.
- After deletion request: deleted or anonymized within 30 days (backups within 90 days).
- Analytics & crash logs: up to 12 months, then aggregated or deleted.
Actual periods may vary by record type and law.
9. Your choices & rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, object to processing, portability, and withdraw consent.
- EEA/UK/Swiss: rights under GDPR/UK GDPR; you may contact your Supervisory Authority.
- California: rights under CCPA/CPRA, including to know, delete, correct, and opt‑out of the sale/share of personal information (we do not sell/share in the CPRA sense).
Request via privacy@careai.com or in‑app settings. We will verify your request and respond within required timeframes.
10. Children's privacy
CareAI is not directed to children under 13 and does not knowingly collect their data without verifiable parental consent. If you believe a child provided data, contact us and we will take appropriate action.
11. Cookies & similar technologies
Our web properties use cookies/SDKs to remember preferences, secure sessions, measure usage, and improve performance. You can manage cookies in your browser and opt‑out of certain analytics where available. Some features may not function without essential cookies.
12. Third‑party services
We integrate with analytics, crash reporting, performance monitoring, health platforms, and payment processors. Their use of information is governed by their own privacy policies. We contractually require appropriate safeguards and minimize sharing.
13. Automated decision‑making
We may use automated processing to detect anomalies (e.g., potential falls or medication non‑adherence). These detections are designed to assist—not replace—clinical judgment. You can request human review via support.
14. Security incidents
If we discover a breach of security that affects your data, we will investigate, notify you and regulators when required, and take remedial steps.
15. Changes to this policy
We will post updates here and update the “Last updated” date. If changes materially affect your rights, we will provide additional notice and seek consent where required.
