Privacy Policy
Effective as posted. Last updated: September 3, 2026.
1. Who We Are and Scope
This Privacy Policy explains how AI Regent Inc. (dba “DocTok” “we,” “us,” “our”) collects, uses, discloses, and protects information when you:
- Visit or use our websites, applications, products, and services (collectively, the “Services”)
- Communicate with us (e.g., email, phone, SMS, in-app messaging)
- Interact with features used by healthcare organizations (“Providers”) and their staff and patients.
We primarily serve U.S. users. If you are a patient using our Services at the direction of your Provider, your Provider’s HIPAA Notice of Privacy Practices governs how your Protected Health Information (PHI) is used and disclosed by the Provider. Our handling of PHI as a Business Associate is governed by our Business Associate Agreement (BAA) with the Provider. This Privacy Policy supplements (but does not replace) the BAA for PHI processing. If there is a conflict:
- PHI: the BAA and your Provider's HIPAA Notice control.
- Non-PHI consumer data (e.g., website analytics, marketing): this Privacy Policy controls.
2. Roles Under Privacy Laws (Controller/Processor; Covered Entity/Business Associate)
For Provider PHI processed to deliver Provider-directed Services (telehealth, AI-assisted documentation, secure messaging, scheduling, billing tools), we act as a Business Associate under HIPAA/HITECH and as a processor/service provider under applicable state privacy laws.
For our own business operations (e.g., website analytics, product telemetry, marketing, security, fraud prevention, compliance), we act as an independent business/controller.
3. Information We Collect
