Privacy Policy
Last updated: April 2026
SomScan is a clinical decision support platform used by hospitals to upload chest X-ray images and generate structured reports. This policy explains what information we collect, how we protect it, and the rights of hospitals, clinicians, and patients.
1. Information We Process
We process two categories of information: (a) hospital and user account data such as hospital name, full name, email, phone number, and assigned role; and (b) clinical content uploaded by authorized users, including chest X-ray images, scan metadata, and the AI- generated structured reports derived from them.
2. How Data Is Used
Uploaded images and reports are used solely to provide the service to the uploading hospital: generating, storing, and presenting reports to authorized clinicians. We do not sell personal or clinical data, and we do not use identifiable patient data to train third-party models.
3. Security & Access Controls
Patient data is stored securely in encrypted storage and is accessible only to authenticated, authorized users belonging to the owning hospital. Row-level security policies enforce that hospital admins, doctors, and technicians can only access records that belong to their hospital and that match their role-based permissions.
All requests to the platform are transmitted over TLS, and administrative actions are logged for auditability.
4. Data Retention
Hospitals are the controllers of the clinical data they upload. Records are retained for as long as the hospital account is active or as required by applicable medical record retention laws. Hospital admins may request deletion of their organization's data at any time.
5. Sharing With Third Parties
We share data with infrastructure subprocessors (cloud hosting, database, and AI inference providers) strictly as necessary to operate the platform. These subprocessors are bound by confidentiality and data protection obligations.
6. Your Rights
Patients with rights under their local data protection laws should contact the treating hospital, which acts as the data controller. Hospitals can contact us to assist with access, correction, or deletion requests.
7. Contact
For privacy questions, contact your hospital administrator or reach out via our Contact page.
