Important:
MedicalSpace is a business-to-business software
platform designed primarily for healthcare
professionals and other authorized medical-industry
users. MedicalSpace is not intended to provide
medical care directly to patients and does not
operate as a healthcare provider.
This Privacy Policy explains how MANA LLC, a Colorado
limited liability company ("MANA", "we", "us", or "our"),
collects, uses, stores, processes, discloses, and protects
information in connection with MedicalSpace (the
"Platform", "Service", or "MedicalSpace").
By creating an account, accessing, or using MedicalSpace,
you acknowledge that you have had the opportunity to
review this Privacy Policy.

through:
-
the MedicalSpace mobile application;

-
MedicalSpace APIs and backend services;

policies.
2.
Important Healthcare Data Notice
MedicalSpace may be used by healthcare professionals
to store and process information relating to their
patients, including medical records and other
health-related information.
The healthcare professional, clinic, organization,
or other MedicalSpace account owner who enters or
controls patient information is primarily responsible
for determining the lawful basis for collecting,
using, disclosing, and otherwise processing that
patient information.
MANA provides the technology infrastructure used to
store and process such information on behalf of the
applicable MedicalSpace customer.
Depending on the applicable law and the specific
processing activity, MANA may act as a service
provider, processor, data processor, controller,
or another legally recognized role.
Nothing in this Privacy Policy is intended to determine
the legal classification of MANA or any MedicalSpace
customer under a particular jurisdiction where the law
requires a different classification.
3.

4.
User-Generated Content and Medical Records
Medical records, documents, notes, prescriptions,
photographs, recordings, files, messages, and other
information uploaded or entered by a MedicalSpace
customer remain under the control of that customer,
subject to applicable law and the contractual rights
necessary for MANA to operate MedicalSpace.
MANA does not claim ownership of a customer's medical
records merely because those records are stored using
MedicalSpace.
MANA processes customer content only as necessary to
provide, operate, secure, maintain, troubleshoot,
synchronize, back up, and support MedicalSpace and
its requested features, and as otherwise permitted
or required by applicable law.
MANA does not sell customer medical records or
personal health information.
MANA does not use customer medical records or personal
health information to train general-purpose artificial
intelligence or machine-learning models.
Where information is submitted to an AI-enabled
feature, it may be processed by MANA and applicable
third-party technology providers only as necessary
to provide the requested AI functionality, subject
to applicable contractual, technical, and legal
safeguards.

information that they are not legally authorized
to transmit.
6.

recording, transcription, translation, or AI-generated
result will be error-free.
6A.
Camera and Images
MedicalSpace may access the device camera when the
user chooses to capture or update a profile photograph
or when a MedicalSpace feature requires image capture.
Images captured or uploaded by the user may be stored
and processed as necessary to provide the requested
functionality.
MedicalSpace may also allow users to upload photographs,
medical images, documents, or other visual information
as part of patient management, medical records,
communication, or other Service features.
Camera access is not used to continuously monitor
users or to collect images when the user has not
initiated a feature that requires camera access.
MANA does not use customer photographs, medical images,
or medical records to train general-purpose artificial

When a user submits information to an AI-enabled
feature, that information may be processed by MANA
and by third-party technology providers used to provide
the requested AI functionality.
MANA uses appropriate contractual and technical
measures designed to limit such processing to the
purposes necessary to provide the requested functionality
and to comply with applicable law.
MANA does not use customer medical records, personal
health information, voice recordings, or other
confidential customer content submitted to MedicalSpace
to train general-purpose artificial intelligence or
machine-learning models.
MANA may change or replace an underlying AI technology
provider from time to time. Where required by applicable
law, MANA will provide appropriate notice regarding
material changes in how personal information is processed.
AI-Generated Information
AI-generated information:

information and for all clinical decisions and actions
taken based on information generated through MedicalSpace.
8.
DICOM and Medical Imaging
MedicalSpace may allow users to upload, view, store,
or process medical imaging files, including DICOM files.
MANA provides technical functionality and does not
independently interpret, diagnose, or validate
medical images.
Any image interpretation, diagnosis, or clinical
decision remains the responsibility of the appropriately
qualified healthcare professional.
9.
Video Calls
MedicalSpace may use third-party communication
infrastructure to provide video or audio calling.
Depending on the feature, call-related information
may be processed by third-party service providers
necessary to establish and operate the communication.
Users are responsible for ensuring that their use
of video or audio communication complies with
applicable professional, privacy, licensing, and
consent requirements.
10.

text or voice communications.
Automated translations may contain errors, omissions,
or incorrect medical terminology.
Users remain responsible for reviewing translations
before relying on them for medical, legal,
administrative, or other important purposes.
11.

independently where permitted by applicable law.
Examples include:
-
payment providers processing payment and
billing information;
-
AI and speech technology providers processing
information submitted to an AI or voice feature;
-
communication providers processing information

16.
Disclosure Required by Law
MANA may disclose information when reasonably necessary to:
- comply with applicable law;
-
comply with a court order or legal process;
-
respond to lawful governmental requests;
-
protect the safety of an individual;
- investigate fraud or abuse;
- enforce our Terms & Conditions;
- protect MANA's legal rights;
-
prevent or investigate security incidents; or
-
protect the rights, property, or safety of users,
patients, MANA, or others.
We may disclose only information reasonably necessary
for the applicable purpose where required by law.
17.
Corporate Transactions
If MANA is involved in a merger, acquisition, financing,
restructuring, sale of assets, bankruptcy, or similar
transaction, information processed through MedicalSpace
may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject
to applicable law.
18.
International Data Transfers
MedicalSpace may be operated using infrastructure
located in countries other than the country where
the user or patient resides.
Accordingly, information may be transferred
across borders.
Where applicable law requires specific safeguards
for international transfers of personal information,
MANA intends to implement appropriate contractual,
technical, organizational, or other legally required
safeguards.
Healthcare professionals are responsible for determining
whether their use of MedicalSpace and any cross-border
processing of patient data satisfies the laws and
professional requirements applicable to their practice.
19.
Data Security
MANA uses reasonable technical, administrative,
and organizational measures designed to protect
information against unauthorized access, loss,
misuse, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.
Security measures may include, depending on the
applicable system:
- authentication controls;
- access controls;
- authorization mechanisms;
- encryption or encrypted transport;
- logging;
- monitoring;
- backups;
- infrastructure security;
- least-privilege access;
- security updates; and
- incident response procedures.
However, no electronic system, Internet transmission,
storage system, or security mechanism can be guaranteed
to be completely secure.
MANA therefore cannot guarantee absolute security.
20.
User Security Responsibilities
Users are responsible for:
- protecting passwords;
- protecting authentication credentials;
- maintaining the security of their devices;
- using appropriate access controls;
- not sharing accounts improperly;
-
assigning appropriate permissions to employees
and members;
-
promptly disabling access for former employees
or members;
- reviewing account activity;
-
maintaining appropriate patient consent
and authorization; and
-
reporting suspected unauthorized access.
An account owner is responsible for actions performed
by authorized members of that account to the extent
permitted by law.
21.
Patient Data Access
MANA seeks to provide access controls designed to
restrict patient information to authorized users.
However, MANA cannot control information that a
healthcare professional intentionally or unintentionally
discloses outside the Platform.
MedicalSpace customers are responsible for configuring
user roles and permissions appropriately.
22.
Data Retention and Deletion
MANA retains information only for as long as reasonably
necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy
Policy, unless a longer retention period is required
or permitted by applicable law.
When an individual user requests deletion of their
MedicalSpace account, MANA will delete the personal
information associated with that user account, subject
to applicable legal, regulatory, security,
fraud-prevention, accounting, dispute-resolution,
or other lawful retention requirements.
Where MedicalSpace is used by a clinic, organization,
or other account owner to manage patient records,
patient records may be subject to separate
medical-record retention requirements. Deletion of
an individual user's MedicalSpace account does not
automatically require deletion of patient records
that are lawfully maintained by the applicable
healthcare provider or organization.
Where applicable, MANA may retain limited information
necessary to comply with legal obligations, protect
the security of MedicalSpace, prevent fraud or abuse,
resolve disputes, or enforce legal rights.
Information retained for these purposes will be
limited to what is reasonably necessary for the
applicable purpose and will be deleted or anonymized
when the applicable retention period ends.
Information deleted from active systems may remain
temporarily in encrypted backups until those backups
are overwritten or securely deleted in accordance
with MANA's backup and disaster-recovery procedures.
23.
Account Termination and Patient Data
Users may request deletion of their MedicalSpace
account through the account and data deletion process
made available by MANA.
When an account deletion request is received,
MANA will process the request within a reasonably
prompt period and will delete the personal information
associated with the applicable user account, subject
to the retention exceptions described in Section 22.
Where patient records are maintained by a healthcare
professional, clinic, or organization, those records
may be subject to legal, regulatory, medical-record
retention, or contractual requirements that prevent
immediate deletion.
The healthcare professional, clinic, or organization
responsible for the patient records remains responsible
for determining the applicable retention requirements
for those records.
MANA does not guarantee indefinite availability of
information after account deletion or termination.
Users are responsible for exporting or otherwise
obtaining records they are legally required to retain
before requesting account deletion or terminating
their account.
23A.
Account and Data Deletion Requests
MedicalSpace provides users with a method to request
deletion of their account and associated personal
information.
Users may request account and data deletion through
the MedicalSpace account deletion web page:
Users who cannot access the MedicalSpace application
may use the web-based deletion request process without
needing to access the application.
Deletion requests may also be submitted directly by
contacting:
The deletion process may require reasonable verification
of account ownership before a request is completed.
The account deletion process is intended to delete the
personal information associated with the user's
MedicalSpace account, subject to information that MANA
is legally required or permitted to retain as described
in Section 22.
Where applicable, MANA may retain limited information
necessary for legal compliance, medical-record retention
requirements, fraud prevention, security, dispute
resolution, accounting, or enforcement of legal rights.
Patient medical records maintained on behalf of a
healthcare provider or organization may be subject to
separate legal or regulatory retention requirements.
Such records will be handled in accordance with the
applicable healthcare provider's instructions and
applicable law.
If a user requests deletion of information that cannot
legally be deleted immediately, MANA will explain the
applicable limitation where required by law.
MANA will process valid deletion requests within a
reasonably prompt period and in accordance with
applicable legal requirements.
24.
Privacy Rights
Depending on the user's location and applicable law,
individuals may have rights relating to their personal
information, including rights to:
- access;
- correction;
- deletion;
- restriction;
- objection;
- portability;
-
withdrawal of consent where applicable;
-
information regarding processing; and
-
other rights granted by applicable law.
Certain rights may be subject to legal exceptions.
Requests relating to a patient's medical record should
generally be directed first to the healthcare professional
or organization responsible for that medical record.
25.
Colorado Privacy Rights
Where applicable, MANA will comply with the Colorado
Privacy Act and other applicable Colorado privacy
requirements.
Colorado law provides protections concerning certain
personal data and sensitive data, including health-related
information, subject to applicable legal requirements
and exceptions.
Nothing in this Privacy Policy limits rights that
cannot legally be waived.
26.
Privacy Rights in Other Jurisdictions
MedicalSpace may be used by professionals and
organizations located in different countries.
Where mandatory privacy legislation applies to MANA's
processing activities, MANA intends to comply with
the applicable requirements to the extent legally required.
Because privacy and health-data laws differ substantially
between jurisdictions, the rights and obligations
applicable to a particular user or patient may differ.
27.
Healthcare Provider Responsibilities
The healthcare professional or organization using
MedicalSpace is responsible for:
-
determining the lawful basis for processing
patient data;
-
obtaining required consent or authorization;
-
providing required privacy notices to patients;
-
maintaining professional confidentiality;
-
complying with medical-record retention requirements;
-
complying with applicable health-data laws;
-
configuring permissions correctly;
-
limiting access to authorized personnel;
-
reviewing AI-generated information;
-
ensuring clinical accuracy;
-
ensuring lawful cross-border processing;
-
responding to patient requests where legally required;
-
complying with professional licensing requirements.
MANA is a technology provider and does not assume
the healthcare provider's professional, regulatory,
fiduciary, or clinical obligations.
28.
Children
MedicalSpace is intended primarily for professional
and business use.
The Service is not intended to be used by children
to create independent user accounts.
Healthcare professionals may nevertheless have patients
who are minors. In such cases, the healthcare professional
or organization is responsible for complying with all
applicable laws concerning minors' medical information
and obtaining any legally required parental or guardian
authorization.
29.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
MANA may update this Privacy Policy from time to time.
When changes are material, MANA may provide notice
through the Platform, email, or another reasonable method.
The updated Privacy Policy will become effective on
the date stated at the beginning of the updated policy.
30.

provider or organization responsible for the record.
31.
No Waiver of Mandatory Rights
Nothing in this Privacy Policy is intended to remove,
limit, or waive any right or protection that cannot
legally be removed, limited, or waived under applicable law.
If any provision of this Privacy Policy conflicts with
mandatory applicable law, the mandatory law will control
to the extent of the conflict.
32.

By accessing or using MedicalSpace, users acknowledge
that they have had the opportunity to review this
Privacy Policy and understand how information may be
processed as described herein.
Where applicable law requires consent or another legal
basis for processing personal information, MANA will
process such information on the applicable lawful basis.
