How We Protect Your Data
TryCaSIE uses a defense-in-depth strategy across our Microsoft Azure infrastructure: multiple security layers protect Protected Health Information from the network up to the application.
- Defense in depth: multiple security layers from network isolation to application-level controls protect against threats at every level
- Data isolation: all data services are network-isolated with no public access, and traffic flows exclusively through private, encrypted channels
- Six-year audit logs: every access and modification is recorded in audit logs no user action can alter or delete
Encryption & Network Security
All data is encrypted at rest and in transit using industry-standard encryption. Our infrastructure is network-isolated: no database or storage service is publicly accessible.
- Encryption at rest for all stored data including notes and recordings
- TLS encryption for all data in transit
- Network-isolated architecture with no public access to data services
- Strict firewall rules restricting traffic to authorized sources only
HIPAA Compliance
TryCaSIE is built on HIPAA-aligned Microsoft Azure services. Our infrastructure satisfies all Technical Safeguards required for handling Protected Health Information.
- All data services are HIPAA-eligible Azure managed services
- Network-isolated database and session storage with no public exposure
- Secrets and credentials managed through Azure's dedicated vault service
- Credential-free authentication between services using managed identities
- Optional two-factor sign-in for users, with an authenticator app and one-time backup codes
- AI processing through enterprise Azure services with no data retention
- Six-year retention applies to audit records, not to note content: HIPAA sets no retention period for the notes themselves
Substance Use Disorder Records (42 CFR Part 2)
TryCaSIE acts as a business associate of customers who may be subject to 42 CFR Part 2, the federal regulation governing the confidentiality of substance use disorder treatment records. The Part 2 final rule (April 2024, compliance February 2026) extended HIPAA-aligned protections to these records. Our Business Associate Agreement (v2.6) explicitly covers Part 2 obligations, including the qualified service organization acknowledgments required by 42 CFR § 2.11.
- Part 2 records and any testimony relaying their contents will not be used or disclosed in any civil, criminal, administrative, or legislative proceeding against the patient absent specific patient consent or a Part 2-compliant court order under 42 CFR §§ 2.61–2.67
- Subpoenas or compelled-process demands for Part 2 records are referred to the customer; TryCaSIE does not respond on its own authority
- Breach notification follows the HIPAA Breach Notification Rule by reference under 42 CFR § 2.16
- Infrastructure subcontractors that process Part 2 records are HIPAA business associates and therefore qualify as qualified service organizations under 42 CFR § 2.11 as amended in 2024; TryCaSIE uses commercially reasonable efforts to obtain express Part 2 contractual coverage where it is not already in place
- Patient notices under 42 CFR § 2.22 and patient consent under 42 CFR § 2.31 remain the customer's responsibility; TryCaSIE has no direct relationship with patients

- Business Associate Agreements in place with all AI providers
- Patient data is never retained or used for model training
- Enterprise data processing terms, not consumer API terms
Infrastructure & Data Residency
Your data resides on HIPAA-aligned Microsoft Azure infrastructure located in the United States. All services are fully managed with enterprise-grade security and reliability.
- US-based data residency with no cross-border transfers
- Fully managed Azure services for database, caching, and secrets
- Encrypted backups retained for disaster recovery only, and aged out within 35 days

Your Rights
You have full control over your data.
- Access: Request a copy of all your data at any time
- Correction: Update or correct any inaccurate information
