Privacy Policy
Last updated: May 11, 2026
1. Introduction
Timber Health, Inc., a Delaware C corporation and developer of the Captrix platform ("Captrix," "we," "our," or "us"), is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our practice-management and patient-engagement platform and related services (the "Service").
Captrix is a provider-facing application intended for use by healthcare practices and their authorized staff. It is not intended as a direct-to-patient application; patient-facing surfaces (forms, booking pages, chat) are operated on behalf of the provider and governed by the provider's own notice of privacy practices.
By using Captrix, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.
2. Information We Collect
2.1 Information You Provide
- Account information (name, email address, phone number, practice name)
- Billing information (payment card details, billing address)
- Practice information (specialty, location, EHR system)
- Patient data you upload or integrate with our platform
- Communications with our support team
2.2 Information Collected Automatically
- Device information (IP address, browser type, operating system)
- Usage data (features accessed, actions taken, time spent)
- Cookies and similar tracking technologies
- Log data and analytics information
2.3 Information from Third Parties
- Data from integrated EHR systems (with the provider's explicit OAuth authorization , see Section 6)

- Data from analytics and advertising partners
3. How We Use Your Information
We use collected information to:
- Provide, maintain, and improve our services
- Process transactions and send related information
- Send marketing communications (with your consent)
- Respond to your comments, questions, and support requests
- Analyze usage patterns to enhance user experience
- Detect, prevent, and address technical issues and fraud
- Comply with legal obligations
Information retrieved from an EHR via SMART on FHIR or similar integration is used only to provide the requested feature to the authenticated provider (e.g., displaying an appointment, populating a scheduling field). It is not used to train models, sold, or shared with third parties outside the limited service-provider scope described in Section 4.
4. Data Sharing and Disclosure
We may share your information with:
- Service providers: Third parties who perform services on our behalf (hosting, analytics, payment processing) and who are bound by confidentiality and HIPAA Business Associate obligations where applicable.
- Business partners: EHR systems and marketing platforms you choose to integrate.
- Legal requirements: When required by law or to protect our rights.
- Business transfers: In connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.
We do not sell your personal information to third parties. We do not use protected health information (PHI) obtained through EHR integrations for advertising or model training.
5. HIPAA Compliance
As a service provider to healthcare practices, we understand the importance of protecting patient health information. Captrix:
- Enters into Business Associate Agreements (BAAs) with covered entities
- Implements administrative, physical, and technical safeguards
- Maintains audit trails and access controls
- Provides breach notification as required by law
- Trains employees on HIPAA requirements
6. EHR Integration & SMART on FHIR
Captrix connects to electronic health record (EHR) systems using the SMART on FHIR authorization framework. Connections are initiated by an authenticated provider and use OAuth 2.0; Captrix never receives or stores end-user EHR passwords.
6.1 Scopes Requested
The specific FHIR scopes Captrix requests depend on the features you enable. Typical scopes include, but are not limited to:
launch,openid,fhirUser,profile, standard SMART app launchoffline_access, refresh tokens so the integration survives session expiryuser/Patient.read,user/Appointment.read,user/Appointment.write,user/Practitioner.read,user/Schedule.read,user/Slot.read, operational scopes for scheduling and patient lookupuser/Encounter.read,user/Observation.read,user/Condition.read, read-only clinical context where the practice has opted in- Equivalent
patient/*scopes where the integration is launched from a patient-context EHR session
Captrix requests the minimum scopes necessary for the features the provider has enabled. Providers can review or revoke connections from their Captrix Settings → Integrations page at any time, which immediately invalidates Captrix's access tokens.
6.2 Confidential Client
Captrix registers with EHR vendors as a confidential client. Client secrets are stored encrypted at rest in AWS Secrets Manager and are never embedded in browser-delivered code, mobile binaries, or any client-side artifact. Captrix attests that it is capable of, and does, securely store client secrets.
6.3 Data Handling
- PHI retrieved via FHIR is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.2+) and at rest (AES-256).
- FHIR resources are cached only as needed to serve the active session; long-term storage is limited to identifiers and references required to re-resolve the resource on subsequent reads.
- Every PHI read or write is recorded in an immutable audit log including actor, timestamp, resource type, and resource identifier (HIPAA §164.312(b)).
- Access tokens, refresh tokens, and any cached PHI are deleted within 30 days of the provider revoking the connection or terminating their Captrix account.
- PHI from EHR integrations is never used to train machine-learning models, never sold, and never shared with advertising or analytics partners.
7. Data Security
We implement industry-standard security measures including:
- Encryption of data in transit (TLS 1.2+) and at rest (AES-256)
- Regular security assessments and penetration testing
- Access controls, multi-factor authentication, and least-privilege principles
- Secure cloud infrastructure with documented physical security (AWS data centers)
- Employee security training and background checks
8. Data Retention
We retain your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide services. We may retain certain information as required by law or for legitimate business purposes, such as resolving disputes and enforcing agreements. PHI retrieved via EHR integrations is deleted within 30 days of connection revocation or account termination, as described in Section 6.3.
9. Your Rights and Choices
Depending on your location, you may have the right to:
- Access the personal information we hold about you
- Correct inaccurate or incomplete information
- Delete your personal information
- Object to or restrict certain processing
- Data portability
- Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent
- Opt out of marketing communications
- Revoke EHR integrations at any time from your Captrix Settings page
To exercise these rights, please contact us at jack@captrix.ai. Patients whose information is processed by Captrix on behalf of a healthcare provider should direct access, correction, or deletion requests to that provider, who is the data controller.
10. Cookies and Tracking
We use cookies and similar technologies to:
- Keep you logged in
- Remember your preferences
- Understand how you use our services
- Improve and personalize your experience
You can control cookies through your browser settings. Note that disabling cookies may affect functionality. We do not place advertising or cross-site tracking cookies on pages that surface PHI.
11. Children's Privacy
Captrix is intended for use by adult healthcare professionals. We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children. Pediatric patient information processed on behalf of a provider is treated as PHI and governed by the provider's notice of privacy practices and applicable law.
12. International Data Transfers
Captrix processes data in the United States. If you access the Service from outside the U.S., your information will be transferred to and processed in the U.S. We ensure appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your information in accordance with this Privacy Policy and applicable law.
13. ONC Model Privacy Notice
Captrix's data practices align with the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC) Model Privacy Notice. The following summarizes the standard ONC categories as applied to Captrix:
- How this app accesses, uses, and discloses your data: Captrix accesses data via SMART on FHIR OAuth scopes a provider has authorized; uses data to power scheduling, patient engagement, and workflow features the provider has enabled; and discloses data only to subprocessors bound by HIPAA Business Associate agreements (Section 4).
