Privacy Policy
Last updated: [DATE]
Template, not legal advice. This is a generic placeholder used while Medic Migrate is in early development. It has not been reviewed by a lawyer and should be replaced with counsel-reviewed terms specific to your jurisdiction before real users rely on it.
1. What we collect
When you use Medic Migrate, we collect:
- Account information: name, email address, and authentication data.
- Profile information you provide: specialty/profession, source and target country, degree, license number, exam scores, and bio.
- Documents you upload for pathway tracking (e.g. passport, transcripts, certificates) — stored to help you track requirements, not shared publicly.
- Community activity: forum posts, comments, and messages you send.
- Usage data: pages visited and actions taken within the Service, for reliability and improvement purposes.
2. How we use it
We use your information to:
- Provide and personalise your pathway, exam, and visa tracking.
- Match you with relevant mentors and community content.
- Send notifications about your pathway progress and account activity.
- Maintain the security and integrity of the Service.
We do not sell your personal information.
3. Sharing
We share information with service providers that operate the Service on our behalf (authentication, file storage, and email delivery providers), and with other users only where you choose to share it (e.g. a public forum post, or details you share directly with a mentor when booking a session). We may disclose information where required by law.
4. Data retention
We retain your information for as long as your account is active, or as needed to provide the Service. You can request deletion of your account and associated data at any time; see "Your rights" below.
5. Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:
- Access the personal data we hold about you.
- Correct inaccurate data via your account settings.
- Request deletion of your account and data.
- Object to or restrict certain processing.
- Request a copy of your data in a portable format.
To exercise these rights, contact [CONTACT EMAIL].
6. Security
We use industry-standard measures (encryption in transit, access controls on stored documents) to protect your information, but no system is completely secure.
7. Cookies
We use cookies for authentication and essential site functionality. See our Cookie Policy for details.
8. Children's privacy
The Service is intended for medical and healthcare professionals and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 16.
9. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. We'll post the revised version here with an updated date.
