We are delighted to announce that MetaLocator has achieved HIPAA compliance. MetaLocator customers, specifically those in the medical industry, can now benefit from HIPAA compliance in their locators. This allows our users to safely handle patient inquiries, appointment scheduling and search data without compromising privacy. This is an important consideration in any use case that involves sending patient information through phone, email or tracking analytics that could personally identify someone.
What is HIPAA?
HIPAA (The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) is a federal law that requires national standards for protecting sensitive information regarding patient health. This prevents patient information from being disclosed without the consent or knowledge of the patient.
Why HIPAA?

By adhering to the rigorous requirements of HIPAA, we strive to maintain the highest level of data protection and reinforce our commitment to safeguarding the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of sensitive information.
