Synappz complies with ISO 27001 and NEN 7510 standards and thus has taken all measures to properly protect your data.
Why do we keep your data?
Personal information is collected by Clinicards for a number of purposes. These are explained below.
Establishing who you are
In order to establish who you are and sign into the app, we store your name and email address. For healthcare providers, we also store a cell phone number for two-step verification to prove it’s you. This is also known as two-step verification.
Setting up the app
Everyone is different and thus has different desires about how the app should work for them. In many cases, we ask some (medical) questions at first use. These questions will help in setting up the app correctly and using it optimally. An example is entering a surgery date. As a result, you get the correct information at the right time.
Coaching, informing and monitoring
Clinicards was created to help you digitally during a time when you are receiving medical care or participating in medical scientific research. For that, you may need to fill in things like your heart rate, how you feel, whether you’ve been taking any medications or how heavy you are. This varies by Clinicards version. All of this data is viewable only to you and people who help you.
Where do we store your data?
To ensure proper storage and security of the data received by Clinicards, we use the following companies.
AWS
All the data you enter is stored in AWS. Amazon Web Services (AWS) is a company that offers secure data storage but also ensures that you as an app user can log in securely and that no one but you and the people helping you can access your data. All your data is stored in Europe.
Atlassian
For logging bugs and privacy requests, we use Atlassian. Your email address and message will be saved when you contact us at helpdesk@synappz.nl email.
For how long will your data be stored?
Your data will be stored by Clinicards for an extended period of time, but never longer than necessary for the use of the app. Only if we are required by law will we need to keep your data longer.
How do we secure your data?
Your personal data will never be shared and your data will only be stored in the aforementioned systems and software.
Personal data held by Clinicards or by any of its recipients can only be accessed through the above software and is protected by password and, where possible, by two-step verification.
Data is always sent via a highly secure connection (TLS 1.2)
The Clinicards app itself can also be locked with a password, PIN, fingerprint or facial recognition.
The caregiver who may be viewing your data does so through a website that is secured by an SSL certificate. This means that this connection to the Clinicards website is private. You recognize this security by the (green) lock in front of the URL. The Internet address will then begin with https://
