Privacy policy

Last updated September 2026

CWW (Care Without Waiting) is a clinic operations platform. This policy explains what data CWW stores, why, who can see it, and how it is protected.

1. Who is responsible

  • Each clinic that uses CWW is responsible for its own patients’ data; CWW processes that data on the clinic’s behalf.
  • Pharmacies see only the prescriptions a clinic’s doctor explicitly sends them.
  • The CWW platform operator sees business and operational aggregates and support requests — not clinical notes.

2. Data CWW stores

  • Clinic staff accounts: name, email or phone number, password (stored only as a secure hash).
  • Patients (per clinic): name and phone number entered at booking, appointment times, queue status, pre-visit answers if you choose to fill them.
  • Clinical records created by the doctor: visit notes, prescriptions, follow-ups.
  • Pharmacy handoffs: the prescription content needed to dispense, patient name and phone.
  • Security and business audit events (who did what, when) without clinical content.

3. Why it is used

  • To run bookings, queues, visits, prescriptions and pharmacy handoffs for the clinic you interact with.
  • To send appointment, prescription-ready and follow-up notifications when the clinic enables them.
  • To secure accounts, prevent abuse (rate limits) and investigate incidents.
  • Optional assistant features send the minimum necessary context to an AI provider only when a clinic enables them; AI output is always a draft reviewed by a person.

4. Who can see it

  • Every clinic is isolated at the database level; one clinic can never read another clinic’s data.
  • Access inside a clinic follows roles (owner, manager, reception, doctor). Reception does not see private clinical notes.
  • Patients access their own appointment through a private link; prescriptions require stronger verification.

5. Cookies

  • CWW sets only necessary cookies: the sign-in session and your language choice.
  • No analytics or marketing cookies are used today. If that changes, the cookie banner choice will be honored first.

6. Security

  • Encrypted connections (HTTPS), hashed passwords, per-request tenant isolation enforced by the database, audit logging, and least-privilege database roles.
  • Payment card numbers are never entered into or stored by CWW; payments are handled by a licensed payment provider.

7. Retention and deletion

  • Clinical and audit records are retained for as long as the clinic account is active and as required by applicable regulation.
  • A clinic can request export or deletion of its data through support; deletion requests are honored subject to legal retention duties.

8. Your rights and contact

  • Ask the clinic you visited to correct or delete your personal data; CWW supports the clinic in fulfilling that request.
  • Questions about this policy: contact CWW through the support channels published on the website.
