2. Authorized Access and User Responsibilities

You must possess valid login credentials provided by the Company. Sharing credentials is strictly prohibited. You are responsible for all activities conducted using your credentials. Unauthorized access or misuse of patient information will result in immediate account termination and potential legal action.

3. Privacy, Data Protection, and Compliance

CAMS ePro complies with British Columbia's Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (FIPPA), the Personal Health Information Protection Act (PHIPA), and the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).

You agree to:

  • Protect patient data and adhere strictly to applicable privacy laws.
  • Immediately report any unauthorized access or breach of data security.
  • Use CAMS ePro exclusively for authorized healthcare, administrative, or research purposes.

4. System Security

We implement rigorous security measures to protect user and patient data, including data encryption, secure access protocols, and regular audits. However, no digital system is completely risk-free. You agree not to circumvent, disable, or interfere with any security-related features.

5. Proprietary Rights and Restrictions

CAMS ePro and all associated intellectual property are owned exclusively by CAMS Health Technologies. You are granted a non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the System for approved healthcare, administrative, or research purposes. You must not:

6. Data Retention and Disposal

Data will be retained in accordance with applicable British Columbia laws. If no specific retention period is legally mandated, all data associated with your account will be securely deleted within 30 days of termination of our contract. Data disposal involves permanently deleting SQLite database files using secure deletion commands (e.g., `rm -rf`).

7. Availability and Service Limitations

While we strive for continuous availability, we cannot guarantee uninterrupted or error-free service. Maintenance and system upgrades will occur at our discretion.
