Privacy Policy

Last updated: 19 May 2026

MEdical Info is provided by Andrew Jewell. This page explains what information the app keeps on the device, what limited information may be sent to external services, and how the app is intended to be used.

Overview

MEdical Info is a local-first mobile app for storing and showing personal medical information such as emergency contacts, medications, allergies, doctor details, surgery history, and insurance information.

Information Stored on the Device

Most information entered into MEdical Info is stored locally on the user’s device, including:

  • personal details
  • emergency contacts
  • medications and medication logs
  • allergies
  • surgeries and operations
  • doctors and specialists
  • insurance and work cover details
  • reminder preferences

No account is required for the current version of the app.

Information Sent Outside the Device

Most medical information remains on the device.

There is one important exception:

  • If the user chooses the optional address autocomplete feature while entering an address, the typed address lookup text and selected place lookup are sent to Google Places so address suggestions and structured address details can be returned.

If the user does not use address autocomplete, no address lookup request is sent.

Notifications, Export, and Import

If medication reminders are enabled, the app schedules local notifications on the device.

The app can export the stored card as a local JSON backup chosen by the user and import a previously exported backup file selected by the user.

Analytics and Tracking

We do not use third-party analytics, advertising SDKs, or tracking tools in the current version of the app.

Security

The app includes optional privacy features such as biometric or device-passcode app lock and screen privacy protection. These features help reduce casual access if someone else uses the device.

No mobile device can be guaranteed to be completely secure, so users should also keep their own device passcode enabled.

Medical Disclaimer

MEdical Info does not provide diagnosis, treatment advice, or clinical recommendations. It is an information storage and sharing tool only.

Users should always follow advice from their doctor, pharmacist, hospital, or other qualified clinician.
