1. Who We Are
Rubrisense ("we", "our", "us") operates a Clinical Decision Support System (CDSS)
built exclusively for licensed homeopathic practitioners. We are a data processor acting on behalf of each
practitioner (the data controller) who uses our Platform. We are committed to protecting both practitioner
account data and the patient records practitioners entrust to our infrastructure.
Rubrisense does not interact with patients directly. Patients do not have accounts on this Platform.
All personal data relating to patients is entered, owned, and controlled by the practitioner.
2. Data We Collect
2.1 Practitioner Account Data
When you create and use an account, we collect:
- Name, email address, and phone number
- Professional credentials (qualification, registration number, jurisdiction)
- Practice/clinic name and address
- Payment details (processed and stored by Razorpay — we do not store card or bank details)
- Account preferences and settings
- Session logs, IP addresses, and activity logs for security and audit purposes
2.2 Patient Data (Entered by Practitioners)
Practitioners enter and manage the following patient data through the Platform:
- Demographics: name, date of birth, gender, blood group, contact details, address, occupation
- Medical and case history: chief complaints, chronic history, miasmatic background, family history, allergies, immunisations, surgical history
- Consultation records: symptoms, AI-generated form responses, AI analysis outputs, practitioner notes
- Prescriptions: medicines, potency, dosage, timing
- Weight and lifestyle logs
- Lab reports (uploaded as PDF or image files)
We are not the data controller for patient data. The practitioner is the data controller.
We store and process this data solely on the practitioner's behalf and on their instruction.
3. How We Use Your Data
3.1 Practitioner Account Data
- To provide, operate, and maintain the Platform and your account
- To process payments and manage your subscription
- To communicate service updates, security notices, and support responses
- To detect and prevent fraud, abuse, and security incidents
- To comply with legal and regulatory obligations
3.2 Patient Data
- To provide the clinical decision support features you have enabled
- To generate AI-assisted intake forms, repertorization, and remedy suggestions
- To store, retrieve, and display records as directed by you
We do not use patient data for advertising, product development, model training, or any purpose
other than delivering the Platform services to you.
4. Data Security
Security Measures in Force
- ✓ Column-level database encryption: Patient PII (name, phone, email, address) and medical history fields are encrypted in the database using AES-256 encryption. A breach of the database would not yield readable patient data.
- ✓ Encryption in transit: All data is transmitted over HTTPS/TLS 1.2+ only. HTTP is not supported.
- ✓ Tenant data isolation: Each practice's data is architecturally isolated. It is not possible for a practitioner on the Platform to access another practice's data.
- ✓ Role-based access control: Each team member can only access data permitted by their role. Permissions are enforced at the application layer.
- ✓ Two-factor authentication: TOTP-based 2FA available for all accounts; enforceable by practice administrators.
- ✓ Audit logging: All sensitive operations (data access, exports, deletions, role changes, logins) are logged with timestamps and IP addresses.
- ✓ Secure invitations: Team members join via signed, single-use, time-limited invitation tokens. Open registration is disabled.
5. AI Processing and Patient Data
When you use AI-assisted features, the Platform sends data to third-party AI model providers.
We implement the following protections:
- No PII is sent to AI providers. Patient name, phone number, email address, and physical address are never included in AI prompts. Only clinically relevant data
(symptoms, age range, gender, consultation notes) is sent.
- Your patient data is not used to train AI models. We use commercial AI APIs (AWS Bedrock, OpenAI, Anthropic) under enterprise agreements that prohibit the use of customer data for model training without explicit consent.
- No patient data is sold or shared with any third party for marketing, research, or any other purpose.
- AI queries are processed over encrypted connections. AI provider data handling is governed by their respective enterprise privacy terms.
6. Data Ownership and Portability
You own your data. All patient records, consultation history, prescriptions, and clinical content
you enter into the Platform belong to you. We hold it on your behalf.
- You may export your data at any time from your account settings
- On account closure, you may request a full data export before deletion
- We will not hold your data hostage — portability is a right, not a premium feature
7. Data Retention
- Patient and consultation data is retained for as long as your account remains active
- After account closure, data is permanently deleted within 30 days, unless you request deletion earlier or a longer period is required by applicable law
- Encrypted database backups are retained for up to 90 days for disaster recovery purposes, after which they are purged
- Security audit logs are retained for 2 years for compliance and incident investigation purposes
- Payment transaction records are retained for 7 years as required by applicable financial regulations
8. Your Rights Under the DPDP Act 2023

10. Third-Party Services
We use the following third-party services in delivering the Platform:

11. Cookies and Session Data
We use the following types of cookies:
- Session cookies: Required to keep you authenticated while using the Platform. These expire when you log out or close your browser.
- CSRF tokens: Security cookies that protect against cross-site request forgery attacks. Required for the Platform to function.

We do not knowingly collect personal data directly from individuals under the age of 18. Parental or guardian consent for minor patient records is the responsibility of the practitioner.
14. International Data Transfers
Your data is primarily stored and processed in India via AWS infrastructure. Certain AI processing calls may traverse international data centres operated by AWS, OpenAI, and Anthropic under enterprise data processing agreements that provide equivalent data protection standards.
15. Changes to This Policy
