Privacy by Design

Your data never leaves your browser:

  • 100% Client-Side Processing — All parsing and analysis happens locally in your browser
  • No Server Upload — Files are never transmitted to our servers
  • No Data Retention — We don't store, log, or have access to your PHI
  • Works Offline — Once loaded, the application works without an internet connection
