Information We Collect

We collect limited technical information automatically when you visit the site:

This information is collected solely for the purpose of understanding site traffic and improving our tools. It is stored in a private database and is not shared with any third parties.

We do not use third-party analytics platforms (e.g., Google Analytics). All traffic data is self-hosted and remains under our control.

No Patient Data

picu.ai does not collect, store, or process any protected health information (PHI) as defined under HIPAA. No patient identifiers, clinical records, or medical data are transmitted to or stored on this website or its servers.

Clinical calculators and tools on this site are provided for educational and reference purposes only. All inputs are processed locally in your browser and are not transmitted to our servers.

Cookies

picu.ai does not use tracking cookies or third-party advertising cookies. A session cookie may be set if you access password-protected areas of the site (e.g., the analytics dashboard). This cookie is temporary, contains no personal information, and expires when you close your browser.

Data Retention

Automatically collected visit data (page, timestamp, IP address, referrer, user agent) is retained for up to 12 months and then permanently deleted. We do not sell, license, or share this data with any external parties.

Security

We take reasonable technical precautions to protect data stored on our servers, including access controls and encrypted connections (HTTPS). However, no method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
