Moroccan Law No. 09-08 · App Store Compliant

Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 1, 2025

Also available in French: Politique de confidentialité

This Privacy Policy explains how Beedical ("we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, stores, and protects personal data when you use our medical practice management platform — including our web application and mobile apps available on the Apple App Store and Google Play. We operate in compliance with Moroccan Law No. 09-08 on the protection of individuals with regard to the processing of personal data and its implementing decrees.

1. Data Controller

The data controller responsible for your personal data is:

Beedical

Medical Practice Management SaaS Platform

Email: privacy@beedical.com

2. Data We Collect

We collect only the data necessary to provide our services. Depending on how you use Beedical, we may collect:

a) Account & professional data (healthcare providers)

  • Identity: first name, last name, professional title or specialty
  • Contact details: email address, phone number
  • Professional details: practice address, medical registration number
  • Authentication data: account credentials, access logs, device identifiers
  • Billing information: subscription and invoice data

b) Patient data (processed on behalf of the healthcare provider)

  • Identity: full name, date of birth, gender
  • Contact: address, phone number
  • Health data: medical history, consultation notes, prescriptions, lab results, medical imaging

For patient health data, Beedical acts as a data processor on behalf of the subscribing healthcare provider, who remains the data controller and determines the purposes and means of processing.

c) Usage & technical data

  • IP address, browser type, operating system, device type
  • Pages visited, session duration, click interactions (aggregated & anonymised)
  • Crash reports and error logs used to improve app stability

3. How We Use Your Data

  • Providing, operating, and maintaining the Beedical platform and mobile app
  • Creating and managing your account and organisation
  • Authenticating users and securing access to patient records
  • Processing subscription billing and invoicing
  • Sending service notifications, security alerts, and product updates
  • Providing technical support and responding to your requests
  • Improving and analysing our services using aggregated, anonymised data
  • Complying with applicable legal and regulatory obligations

We do not use your data for advertising, and we never sell your data to third parties.

5. Health Data

Health data is a special category of sensitive personal data under Moroccan Law 09-08. We apply heightened protections:

  • Health data is stored exclusively on OVHcloud infrastructure certified for healthcare data hosting (HDS — Hébergeur de Données de Santé), located in France
  • Access is strictly limited to authorised healthcare professionals within your organisation
  • All health data is encrypted at rest (AES-256) and in transit (TLS 1.3)
  • Beedical processes health data only on the documented instructions of the healthcare provider (data controller)
  • Health data is never used for any purpose other than delivering the agreed service and is never shared with third parties for commercial purposes

6. Data Retention

  • Account data: retained for the duration of the active subscription, then deleted within 3 years of termination unless a longer period is required by law
  • Patient health records: retained for the legally applicable period for medical records under Moroccan regulations, or as instructed by the healthcare provider acting as data controller
  • Billing records: retained for 10 years from the date of issue to comply with accounting obligations
  • Access logs: retained for 12 months for security and audit purposes
  • Anonymised analytics: retained indefinitely as they cannot be linked to any individual

7. Third-Party Sub-Processors

We share data only with carefully selected sub-processors who provide services essential to operating Beedical. Each sub-processor is bound by appropriate data protection obligations:

OVHcloud

Cloud infrastructure & storage — HDS-certified (France). Hosts all application data including health records.

Clerk

Authentication & identity management — Processes account credentials and session data only.

We do not transfer personal data to countries outside Morocco or the European Union without ensuring an equivalent level of protection through appropriate safeguards.

8. Your Rights

Under Moroccan Law No. 09-08 (Articles 7–12), you have the following rights regarding your personal data:

  • Right to information (Art. 7–8): Be informed about how and why your data is processed before or at the time of collection
  • Right of access (Art. 9): Obtain confirmation that we process your data and receive a copy of it
  • Right to rectification & erasure (Art. 10): Request correction of inaccurate data or deletion of data in the circumstances provided by law

If your request is not satisfactorily resolved, you may lodge a complaint with the Commission Nationale de contrôle de la protection des Données à caractère Personnel (CNDP), the Moroccan data protection authority.

9. Security

We implement technical and organisational measures appropriate to the sensitivity of the data we process:

  • End-to-end encryption in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256)
  • Two-factor authentication available on all accounts
  • Role-based access control (RBAC) with the principle of least privilege
  • Daily encrypted backups across geographically separate locations

10. Children's Privacy

Beedical is a professional platform intended solely for licensed healthcare providers and their administrative staff. It is not directed at children under the age of 18.

Patient data managed through Beedical may include records for minor patients. In such cases, the data is processed exclusively under the direction of the responsible healthcare provider, who is the data controller and is responsible for obtaining any necessary parental or guardian consent.

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we make material changes, we will notify you via the application or by email at least 15 days before the changes take effect. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page always reflects the current version.

Your continued use of Beedical after the effective date of a revised policy constitutes your acceptance of the updated terms.
