Security and Privacy

How we think about trust, access, demo safety, and responsible sharing for care-at-home coordination.

Not a diagnostic or emergency tool

homecare by fit-byte helps families coordinate home care and recordkeeping. It does not diagnose conditions or dispatch emergency medical response. Call local emergency services for urgent situations.

Role-based access

Patients, family admins, caregivers, care providers, and doctor viewers see only what their role allows. Permissions follow household and care-membership rules.

Family and care-team model

A household groups family members; care memberships invite caregivers and clinicians to specific patients. Invites require existing accounts and explicit acceptance.

Demo uses fictional data

The public demo (Ramesh Sharma family) uses fictional records for exploration. Do not enter real patient names, phone numbers, diagnoses, or clinical readings in the demo.

Demo data may be reset

To keep the demo useful for all visitors, data entered in the demo workspace may be refreshed on a schedule (for example nightly). Real accounts are not affected.

What is safe to share

Within your private household, share care updates with invited members. Use structured summaries for doctors rather than forwarding uncontrolled screenshots of sensitive chats.

What to avoid on WhatsApp

Avoid sending full medical records, passwords, or identity documents through informal messaging apps. Prefer role-based access inside homecare by fit-byte.

Notifications: demo vs real

In the demo, external notifications (Telegram, ntfy, web push, etc.) are suppressed or simulated—no real contact receives alerts. Real accounts follow your notification preferences.

Sessions and APIs

Authenticated sessions protect patient data. APIs require login except for explicitly public growth and auth routes.

Privacy and deletion

We are building toward clear data-export and deletion practices for real accounts. Contact your household admin or platform operator for account-specific requests.
