Data Retention Policy

During Your Subscription Term. Our clinic management platform is designed to retain, protect and preserve the integrity of Subscriber Data in order to assist our Subscribers with their regulatory and compliance obligations around patient records.

Data Export. Subscribers may request an export of their Subscriber Data at any time and should do so prior to ceasing or terminating their use of our clinic management platform. Subscribers may also request for export of their patient data. For any export requests, contact us.

After Termination. When a subscription expires or is terminated, the account is deactivated. This means the account and any Subscriber Data associated with the account is no longer available for use and cannot be accessed through the internet. The account and its Subscriber Data will be retained 6 months in the event the Subscriber wishes to re-activate the account. We will store Subscriber Data securely and isolate it from any further processing while it is deactivated.

Account Owners may contact us with questions about their Subscriber Data. Please note that, in order to maintain strict security of Subscriber Data, we cannot take instructions from anyone other than the Account Owner.

Overdue Fees. If any fees are more than 30 days overdue, we may, without limiting our other rights and remedies, suspend or terminate access to the Services until the overdue amounts are paid in full. We will provide at least 7 days prior notice that fees are overdue before we do this, and we will not exercise this right if the Subscriber is disputing the applicable fees reasonably and in good faith and is cooperating diligently to resolve the dispute.

Termination by Us. as an addition to other provisions in place between InteroCloud and the Subscriber, if the case, InteroCloud may terminate or suspend access to the Services, or suspend or deactivate a Subscriber’s or a user’s account, if the Subscriber or user breaches any obligations under these Terms or the applicable law. InteroCloud may also terminate a Subscriber’s subscription if InteroCloud discontinues the Services for any reason.

Refunds. If a Subscriber terminates its subscription due to a breach by InteroCloud or InteroCloud discontinues the Services, we will refund any fees you had pre-paid for the remaining unused portion of your subscription term. If InteroCloud terminates a Subscriber’s subscription due to a breach by the Subscriber, the Subscriber will not be entitled to any refund and must pay any unpaid fees for the remaining unused portion of the subscription term.
