1. Who We Are
Recallify is a Canadian automated patient communication service built for dental and medical clinics. Our registered business email is hello@getrecallify.com and our service is accessible at getrecallify.com. References to "Recallify," "we," "us," or "our" in this policy refer to the Recallify service and its operators.
2. Information We Collect
We collect the following categories of information to provide and improve our service:
- Clinic information: Clinic name, owner name, email address, phone number, and Twilio phone number used for SMS delivery.
- Patient phone numbers: Inbound calling numbers captured at the time of a missed call event. These are used solely to deliver the automated SMS response and are not retained longer than operationally necessary.
- Appointment data (Complete plan): For clinics on the Complete plan, appointment date, time, and patient name may be entered into a Google Sheets tracker by the clinic. This data remains under the clinic's Google account.
- SMS interaction logs: Records of SMS messages sent and received (content and timestamps), retained for up to 90 days for troubleshooting and quality assurance.
- Website usage data: Standard server logs, browser type, IP address, and analytics data collected via privacy-compliant analytics tools.
3. What We Do NOT Collect
Recallify is designed with a privacy-first architecture. We explicitly do not collect:
- Patient health records, diagnoses, treatment notes, or any Protected Health Information (PHI) as defined under HIPAA.
- Patient full names (unless voluntarily entered by the clinic into the appointment tracker).
- Credit card or payment information (billing is handled by a PCI-compliant third-party processor).
- Social insurance numbers, government IDs, or sensitive personal identifiers.
4. SMS Consent and Patient Communication
Recallify sends SMS messages to phone numbers that have called your clinic's registered phone number. By calling a clinic that uses Recallify, patients implicitly consent to receive a single automated response acknowledging their call.
- Every SMS includes opt-out instructions (e.g., "Reply STOP to unsubscribe").
- Opt-out requests are honored immediately and the number is added to a suppression list.
- SMS messages do not contain diagnosis information, treatment details, or any PHI.
- Clinics are responsible for ensuring their use of Recallify complies with applicable provincial and federal telecommunications laws, including CASL.
5. How We Use Your Information
We use collected information exclusively to:
- Deliver the automated SMS and email services you have subscribed to.
- Send you account-related communications (setup instructions, billing notices, service updates).
- Troubleshoot technical issues and maintain service reliability.
- Comply with legal obligations as required by Canadian law.
We do not use your information for targeted advertising, profiling, or sale to third parties.
6. Third-Party Service Providers

- No PHI is transmitted in SMS messages.
- SMS content is limited to appointment logistics (date, time, confirmation).
- Access to clinic data is role-restricted and logged.
- We support Business Associate Agreements (BAAs) for Canadian clinics upon request.
