Privacy Policy
Last updated: June 2026
We take the protection of your personal data seriously. This policy explains in plain language what data Meditag processes and why.
What this means for you
- Your health data stays on your phone — it never leaves it.
- Meditag does not sell data and shows no advertising.
- The optional backup is encrypted — we cannot read its contents.
- No account or email address is required.
- We will delete your data completely on request.

2. What data is processed?
2.1 Data on your device (always, locally)
Meditag stores the following data exclusively on your device:
- Medication plan (name, dosage, intake times)
- Dose log (when you marked a medication as taken or skipped)
- Vital signs (blood pressure, pulse, weight, etc.), if you record them
- Reminder settings and personal schedule settings
This data does not leave your device unless you enable the optional encrypted backup (see below).
2.2 If you use encrypted backup (optional)
If you enable backup, your data is protected with strong encryption on your device before transmission. The server stores:
- An anonymous code (from a random device number) — no link to your identity, name, or date of birth is possible
- An encrypted file (readable only with your personal backup password — we have no access to the contents)
The server does not know your name, your date of birth, or your medications.
2.3 If you use trusted contact access (optional)
If you grant a trusted contact access, a separate encrypted blob is stored on the server. This blob is also unreadable server-side — the key exists only on your device and your trusted contact's device.
2.4 Anonymous technical data
The server logs technical operational data (number of connections, error rate). This contains no health data and cannot be used to identify individuals.
2.5 Apple Health / HealthKit data (optional, iOS only)
If you use the sync feature on the Vitals screen on an iPhone, Meditag requests read-only access to the following data types in Apple Health. Meditag does not write any data back to Apple Health:
- Blood pressure
- Heart rate
- Body weight
- Blood glucose
- Oxygen saturation
- Body temperature
Purpose: The data is used solely to display your readings on the Vitals screen and, if you choose, to include them in the doctor PDF. Meditag does not analyse this data, does not provide clinical recommendations, and does not make any medical decisions based on these values.
Storage: The data remains exclusively on your device, stored with strong encryption in the app's local database. If you enable the encrypted backup, vital-sign data is included in the backup blob — that blob is encrypted on your device with AES-256-GCM before transmission; the server receives only opaque ciphertext, never plaintext values. Your vital data is not transmitted in plaintext to Meditag's servers, not shared with third parties, not used for advertising or analytics, and not used for profiling individuals.
Deletion: You can revoke HealthKit access at any time — in your iPhone's Settings → Privacy & Security → Health → Meditag. Readings already stored in the app can be deleted from within the app. You can delete all app data at any time by uninstalling the app or via our data deletion page.
3. Third-party services
Meditag does not use analytics services, advertising networks, or social media integrations. No personal health data is shared with third parties.
Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM): If you grant trusted contact access, your device registers with Firebase Cloud Messaging (a service operated by Google LLC, USA) to receive push notifications. Only a device identifier — no name, health data, or personal information — is transmitted to Google. Google's Firebase Privacy Policy applies. FCM is used exclusively for notification delivery and not for analytics or advertising.
Apple HealthKit (optional, iOS only): For full details on how HealthKit data is handled, see section 2.5.
4. Server location
The server is located in Switzerland and is subject to the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP/nFADP).
5. Retention
- Local data: Remains on your device until you uninstall the app or delete data within the app.
- Backup data: Remains on the server until you disable backup or request deletion.
- Apple Health / HealthKit data (iOS only): Remains on your device until you delete it in the app or uninstall the app. Meditag does not store this data in plaintext on the server — if backup is enabled, it is part of the encrypted blob.
6. Your rights
Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), applicable in Liechtenstein as a member of the European Economic Area (EEA), you have the right to:
- Access the data held about you
- Correct inaccurate data
- Request deletion of your data
- Restrict processing
- Data portability
To request deletion of your data, use our data deletion page or write to privacy@meditag.ch.
7. Data security
All connections between the app and server are encrypted — like online banking. Backup data is protected with strong encryption before it leaves your device. We have no access to the contents of your backup data.
8. Minors
Meditag is not intended for persons under 18. We do not knowingly collect data from minors.
9. Changes to this policy
If we make material changes to this policy, registered users (with active backup) will be notified via the app. The date of the last change is shown at the top of this page.
