Scope of Policy
This document serves as the governing privacy policy for the entire suite of applications under ARDS Workup and Affiliated Products. It explicitly covers the ARDS Workup tool and extends to all future medical calculators and apps released within this suite.
03
Data Collection, Processing, and Storage
Our applications are designed with strict privacy principles:
Local ProcessingAll calculations and data processing occur locally, directly on your device.

Because our applications process all data locally on your device and do not transmit information to external servers, the security of the data entered into the applications is inherently protected by your device’s operating system and your personal security settings, such as passcodes or biometric locks. We recommend keeping your device updated and secured to maintain this protection.

Children’s Privacy
Our medical calculation tools are designed strictly for use by healthcare professionals and clinical staff. They are not directed at, nor intended for use by, children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect any personal information from children.
06
Medical and Usage Disclaimer
The tools provided within this application suite, including the handoff note feature, are intended for educational and reference purposes only. They are not meant to replace official medical charting, formal clinical documentation at your place of employment, or professional clinical judgment.
The developer assumes no responsibility or liability for how users choose to apply, utilize, or document the information generated by these applications in their clinical practice.

Changes to This Privacy Policy
We reserve the right to update this Privacy Policy as we expand our suite of affiliated products or as regulatory requirements change. Any updates will be reflected in this document with a revised “Effective Date,” and users will be notified of significant changes via app update release notes or within the applications themselves.
