Privacy Policy

TebScribe LLC · Effective July 24, 2026 · Last updated August 5, 2026 · Applies to the tebChart iOS app, the tebDictate dictation service, and this website.

Two different products, one company — please read this part first.

tebChart is the iPhone app: your medications, visits, documents, and appointments. It has no account, and your health records are never sent to TebScribe. We operate no server that receives, stores, or processes your health records. Sections 1–7 are about tebChart.
tebDictate is a separate, free dictation service — a web app at tebchart.com/dictate, a standalone phone app, a browser extension, and a dictation feature built into the tebChart app. It turns a phone into a microphone for a computer, and it does use a TebScribe relay (which only ever handles ciphertext it cannot read). Section 8 is about tebDictate.

They do not share data. tebDictate has no access to your tebChart records, and nothing from your chart passes through it. If you never start a dictation session, the tebChart app never contacts the relay at all. How long anything is kept, and how to delete it, is in section 10.

Part one — the tebChart app

1. Information we collect

None. tebChart has no user accounts, no sign-up, no analytics SDKs, no advertising identifiers, and no crash-reporting services operated by us. We do not collect, receive, transmit, sell, rent, or share your medications, visits, documents, scans, appointments, notes, or Apple Health data. There is no TebScribe server that your records are sent to. We cannot see them, and we could not produce them if asked.

On its own, the app makes one network request: it asks Apple’s public App Store lookup service (itunes.apple.com) whether a newer version of tebChart is available. That request carries only the app’s own identifier — no personal or health information — and it goes to Apple, not to us.

The app contacts a TebScribe server in exactly one other situation: when you yourself start a tebDictate session (see section 8). In that case, and only then, the app exchanges end-to-end-encrypted dictation text through our relay, which cannot read it. Your medications, visits, documents, scans, and Apple Health data are never part of that — and never leave your device.

2. Where your information lives

On your device. Medications, visits, appointments, documents, scans, and notes you add to tebChart are stored in the app’s private storage on your iPhone, protected by iOS security and, if you enable it, the app’s Face ID / Touch ID App Lock.
Optionally, in your personal iCloud. If you turn on iCloud sync, supported records sync through your own iCloud account (Apple’s CloudKit private database) under Apple’s terms and security. Apple — not TebScribe — operates that service. We never have access. You can turn sync off at any time.
Never on TebScribe servers. TebScribe does not store your tebChart records or files on TebScribe servers. There is no tebChart cloud, database, backup service, or backend of ours holding your health information.

3. Camera, photos, and document scanning

When you scan discharge papers, pill bottles, or documents, images are processed with Apple’s on-device text recognition. Scans and extracted text are saved only on your device. Nothing is uploaded.

4. Apple Health

If you choose to import records from Apple Health (including clinical health records), that data is read on-device, only after you grant permission, and is stored with the rest of your chart on your device (and, if you turn on iCloud sync, in your own iCloud alongside it). We do not receive it. Health data is never used for advertising or marketing, is never sold, and is never shared with third parties. You can revoke Health access at any time in iOS Settings › Privacy & Security › Health › tebChart.

5. Notifications and alarms

Medication reminders, refill alerts, and loud alarms are scheduled locally on your device using Apple’s notification and alarm frameworks. The content of your reminders never leaves your phone, and you control how much detail appears on the lock screen.

6. Sharing you initiate

Features like the ER card, registration packet, and family care updates create text or PDFs that are shared only when you tap Share, only through the iOS share sheet, and only to the people or apps you choose. tebChart does not transmit them anywhere itself, and nothing you share passes through TebScribe.

7. Purchases

tebChart Premium and Lifetime are processed entirely by Apple through the App Store. Apple handles payment and does not give us your payment details, name, or address. Purchase entitlements are verified on-device through Apple’s StoreKit. See Apple’s privacy policy for how Apple processes purchases.

Part two — tebDictate and this website

8. tebDictate (a separate product, with its own policy)

It is a separate function, not a separate app. Dictation is built into the tebChart iPhone app, but it is walled off from your chart: tebDictate has no access to your tebChart records, and nothing from your chart is ever sent to the relay. Starting a dictation session is the one thing that makes the tebChart app contact a TebScribe server; if you never start one, it never does.

What it is. tebDictate is a dictation tool that turns a phone into a microphone for a computer you are sitting at. It comes in four forms: the web app at tebchart.com/dictate, a standalone tebDictate phone app, a browser extension, and the dictation feature inside the tebChart app.

Where its policy lives. Because tebDictate is its own product, it has its own privacy policy and its own support page:

tebdictate.com/privacy.html — how tebDictate handles speech, what its relay can and cannot see, and how long anything is kept
tebdictate.com/support.html — help and contact

9. This website, and who processes data for us

The tebChart pages — the home page, support, terms, the Android page, the checklist, the data deletion page, and this policy — are a static website. They set no cookies, run no analytics or advertising trackers, and contain no forms that submit data to us.

The tebDictate pages at tebchart.com/dictate are different. They count page views using our own first-party measurement script, running on our own servers — not Google Analytics or any other third-party analytics or advertising service. Each page view records only: which page was loaded, and the campaign tags (utm_source, utm_medium, utm_campaign) if you arrived from a link that carried them. It sets no cookies, writes no browser storage, creates no visitor identifier, does no fingerprinting, and honours your browser’s Do Not Track setting — if Do Not Track is on, nothing is sent at all. The counts cannot be linked to you or to each other.

What is never sent anywhere, including to us:

Anything you dictate. Your speech is recognized on your own phone and encrypted before it is relayed. The words are unreadable to us and are never sent to any analytics service.
Your pairing secrets. The QR link carries a session token and encryption keys in the part of the address after the #. Browsers never send that part to a web server at all, and our measurement script records only the page path, so pairing secrets cannot leak through analytics.
Your tebChart health records. tebDictate has no access to the tebChart app or its data.

You can opt out by turning on Do Not Track in your browser, or by blocking the script. tebDictate works exactly the same either way — we do not gate any feature on analytics.

The service providers we use, and what each one gets. Note which product each one serves — none of them processes data from the tebChart app except Apple:

Amazon Web Services (this website and tebDictate only — not the tebChart app) — hosting. Receives standard, short-lived technical server logs (such as IP addresses) needed to deliver the service and protect it from abuse, and the encrypted tebDictate traffic it cannot read. We do not use those logs to identify or profile visitors.
No third-party analytics or advertising provider. Usage measurement on the tebDictate pages is first-party, on our own servers, as described above — no data goes to Google Analytics or any comparable service.
Google Fonts (this website only) — serves the typefaces on these pages and receives the standard technical request information needed to deliver the font files.
Apple (the tebChart app) — the App Store (purchases and update checks) and, if you turn it on, your personal iCloud sync. Apple acts under its own privacy policy, not ours, and we have no access to what it holds for you.

Each of these providers is contractually required to protect the data it processes for us to a standard at least equal to this policy, and none of them is permitted to sell it. We do not sell, rent, or trade personal information to anyone, and we do not use any of it to train machine-learning models.

Part three — your rights, and the fine print

10. Keeping, deleting, and withdrawing consent

There is no account to delete — neither tebChart nor tebDictate creates one, so there is nothing for us to hold in your name and no account-deletion request to make. Deletion is entirely in your hands:

Individual tebChart records: delete a medication, visit, document, or appointment inside the app and it is gone from your device immediately.
Everything at once: delete the tebChart app from your iPhone. iOS removes the app’s entire private storage, including all scans and documents.
iCloud copies: if you turned on sync, also turn sync off in tebChart, then remove tebChart data from iCloud in iOS Settings › [your name] › iCloud › Manage Account Storage.
Copies you exported: backups, PDFs, and shared updates you saved or sent are yours to delete wherever you put them; we have no copy and no way to reach them.
tebDictate sessions: see section 8 — sessions expire, and we hold no readable content. If you have never used tebDictate, there is nothing of yours on that relay at all.
Website analytics: the page-view counts collected on the tebDictate pages contain no identifier, so there is nothing tied to you to retain or delete. You can stop them being sent at any time by turning on Do Not Track or blocking the script.
Server logs: our hosting provider’s technical logs are short-lived and are not used to build a profile of you.

Step-by-step instructions are on our data deletion page. If you would like us to confirm what we hold about you, or to ask us to delete something, email privacy@tebscribe.com and we will answer within 30 days. Depending on where you live you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or port your personal information, or to object to its processing; we honor those requests regardless of where you live, and we will never charge you or deny you service for exercising them.

11. Children

tebChart is intended for adults managing their own or a family member’s health information and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone — including children. If you believe a child has sent us information, email privacy@tebscribe.com and we will delete it.

12. What tebChart is not

tebChart is an organizational tool. It does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment, it does not diagnose or decide urgency, and it is not a substitute for your care team, emergency services, or a professional interpreter. tebChart is not a HIPAA covered entity or business associate; it is a personal record-keeping tool under your control. It is not a medical device and has not been cleared or approved by any regulator.

13. Changes to this policy

If we ever change how tebChart handles data — for example, adding an optional feature that involves a server — we will update this policy and its effective date, change the app’s App Store privacy label if needed, and ask for your consent inside the app before anything new happens. The default will always be: your records stay yours.
