Privacy Policy

How MEDIFILE.ME collects, uses, and protects your information while operating emergency medical ID cards and profiles.

Information we collect

Account details you provide (name, email, phone), shipping details for card orders, emergency contacts, physicians, emergency profile data, privacy settings, uploaded medical documents, scan logs, alert logs, and support/contact messages. Payment details are processed by payment providers; we receive payment status and transaction identifiers, not full card numbers.

Special category health data

Medical conditions, medications, allergies, blood type, medical documents, care preferences, and similar emergency profile fields may be health data. We only process this data when you explicitly consent and choose to add it to your profile. You can update visibility settings, remove documents, export your data, or delete your account from the dashboard.

How we use it

We use data to create and manage your account, operate QR card scans, display public emergency information, protect PIN-only sections, send emergency alerts, fulfill card orders, provide support, prevent abuse, and maintain security logs.

Legal basis

We process account and order data to provide the service you request. We process health/emergency profile data based on your explicit consent. We process operational logs and anti-abuse data for security and legitimate operational needs. You may withdraw consent by deleting medical profile data or deleting your account.

Information sharing

We do not sell your data. We share information only with service providers who help run hosting, email delivery, payments, card fulfillment, backups, and support, or when required by law. These providers should only process data for agreed service purposes.

Data security and retention

We use access controls, PIN-gated profile sections, upload limits, restricted document access, and audit-style privacy events for sensitive actions. Deleted accounts remove emergency profiles, contacts, physicians, privacy settings, document files, tags, scan logs, and alert logs tied to the account. Backups may retain copies for a limited backup cycle before expiry.

How we protect your data

Safeguards include account login for editing, explicit consent before storing health profile data, per-section visibility controls, PIN-only access for sensitive sections, restricted document downloads, upload limits, time-limited password reset tokens, and audit-style records for sensitive actions such as consent updates, profile access, document downloads, exports, and deletion.

Your rights

Depending on your location, you may request access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection, portability, and withdrawal of consent. Dashboard users can download a JSON data export and delete their account from Privacy & Data. For other requests, contact hello@medifile.me.
