Privacy Policy
Last updated: March 2026
1. Introduction
Formisoft (“we”, “us”, “our”) is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our patient engagement platform. By using the Platform, you agree to the collection and use of information as described in this policy.
2. Information We Collect
Account Information
When you create an account, we collect your name, email address, phone number, and organization details.
Patient Data
When healthcare providers use Formisoft to collect patient information, that data is stored on behalf of the provider (the “covered entity”). We act as a business associate and process this data only as directed by the provider.
Appointment Data
We collect scheduling information, provider availability settings, and appointment history to facilitate appointment booking and management.
Communication Data
We store SMS messages, email content, and AI voice call transcripts sent or received through the Platform. We also track communication preferences, including opt-in and opt-out status for each patient.
Payment Data
We store transaction records for payments processed through Stripe Connect between providers and patients. Formisoft does not store credit card numbers, bank account numbers, or other sensitive payment credentials. All payment credentials are handled directly by Stripe.
Voice & AI Data
When the AI Virtual Receptionist feature is enabled, we collect call recordings, transcripts, and metadata (caller number, duration, outcome). AI-generated content from the form builder and other AI features is also stored.
Device & Usage Data
We automatically collect information about how you interact with our platform, including your IP address, browser type, operating system, device information, pages visited, features used, and form completion rates.
3. How We Use Your Information

- To send transactional emails (intake links, notifications)
- To send SMS and email appointment reminders and follow-ups
- To process AI voice calls for appointment confirmations and patient communication

4. Data Security & Residency
We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect personal data, including encryption at rest and in transit (AES-256 and TLS 1.3), role-based access controls, audit logging, and regular security assessments. No method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your data, we cannot guarantee absolute security.
All data is stored and processed exclusively within the United States on AWS infrastructure. Your data never leaves US borders.
5. Data Retention
We retain account data for the duration of your subscription. Patient data collected through forms is retained until deleted by the healthcare provider or upon account termination. Communication records (SMS, email, voice call transcripts) are retained for the duration of your subscription. Audit logs are retained for a minimum of 6 years for compliance purposes. Upon account termination, you may request an export of your data within 30 days. After 30 days, we may permanently delete your data.
6. HIPAA Compliance
All healthcare providers accept a Business Associate Agreement (BAA) during onboarding. We maintain appropriate administrative, physical, and technical safeguards as required by the HIPAA Security Rule. You can review your BAA status in your Compliance settings.
