As healthcare goes digital, safeguarding patient data during this transition is paramount. We have build our digital tools so that no patient or personal data is stored within the Care to Translate app. Instead, personal data is used solely for administration and customization by trusted superusers within the customer's organization. 

Why data security matters


Patient trust

Trust is the cornerstone of patient-provider relationships. Patients trust healthcare professionals to protect their sensitive health information. Breaching this trust can have devastating consequences.

Legal and ethical commitments

Healthcare providers must adhere to stringent legal and ethical standards, such as HIPAA and GDPR, to protect patient data. Non-compliance carries severe consequences.

Combating cyber threats

The healthcare sector is a prime target for cyberattacks. Ransomware, data theft, and system breaches can disrupt patient care and compromise data integrity.

Care to Translate's approach to data Security

Rock-solid network security

All data communication is encrypted and secured using industry-standard protocols, bolstered by a Web Application Firewall (WAF) to thwart cyber threats.

Zero patient data storage

Care to Translate never stores patient data. The way the product is built, phrases can be used in a conversation, but not be saved. In the same way, no patient data can be saved in the tool.


Reliable service

Rigorous testing and monitoring guarantee a stable and dependable Care to Translate experience.

Data security and patient privacy are paramount in the healthcare revolution. Care to Translate is committed to safeguarding patient privacy —no patient or personal data is stored in the app. Personal data is used solely for administration and customization within the customer's organization. 

In a healthcare world where trust and data security are paramount, Care to Translate stands as a trusted partner, ensuring healthcare providers communicate confidently while upholding patient privacy and ethical standards.
