WHAT DATA WE COLLECT

Cloud Data (Stored Temporarily)

We store minimal, anonymous session data to enable device communication between controllers and monitors:

  • Session code (randomly generated for device pairing, e.g., "ABC123")
  • Anonymous device identifiers (randomly generated, not actual device information)
  • Vital signs data (heart rate, oxygen saturation values during training)
  • Connection status (connected/disconnected states)
  • Session states (paused, timer running)
  • Timestamps (session creation and update times)

Retention: All session data is automatically deleted after 24 hours maximum

Local Data (Never Uploaded)

  • Haptic feedback usage (processed locally, no data stored)
  • Debrief summary (generated locally, displayed in modal, not persisted)
  • Scenario event logs (stay on device only, cleared when session ends)
  • Audio playback data (processed locally)
  • Screen wake state (keep-awake during active sessions)

Data We Do NOT Collect

  • No personal information (names, emails, phone numbers)
  • No actual device identifiers (IMEI, MAC address, device serial numbers)
  • No device information (device type, OS version, manufacturer)
  • No analytics or crash reporting data
  • No diagnostic data or error logs
  • No user behavior tracking
  • No location data
  • No IP addresses
  • No camera data or images (camera access not used)

HOW WE USE DATA

The minimal data we process is used solely for:

  1. Device Communication: Enabling real-time communication between controller and monitor devices during training sessions
  2. Session Management: Managing active training sessions and device connections
  3. Vital Signs Synchronization: Transmitting heart rate and oxygen saturation values between devices in real-time
  4. Screen Wake Management: Keeping screen awake during active training sessions (local device feature only)

Data is NOT used for:

  • User profiling or behavior analysis
  • Advertising or marketing
  • Third-party sharing or selling
  • Analytics or performance tracking
  • Cross-session analysis or historical tracking

DATA STORAGE AND RETENTION

Cloud Storage (Supabase)

  • Session data is stored temporarily during active training sessions
  • All data transmission between devices occurs through Supabase (no Bluetooth, WiFi Direct, or local network communication)
  • All session data (active, inactive, interrupted, or completed) is automatically deleted after 24 hours
  • Automated cleanup runs once every 24 hours to permanently delete sessions older than 24 hours
  • No long-term data retention
  • No export or download features for session data

Local Device Storage

  • Debrief summaries are generated locally and displayed in a modal (not persisted to storage)
  • Scenario event logs are kept in memory during session only (cleared when session ends)
  • No persistent local data storage
  • No diagnostic or crash logs stored
  • No cached data or temporary files

DATA SHARING

We do not share any data with third parties.

  • No data is sold, rented, or shared with advertisers
  • No data is shared with marketing companies
  • No data is shared with analytics services
  • Session data remains within our secure infrastructure solely for app functionality

THIRD-PARTY SERVICES

Backend Infrastructure

  • Supabase: Used for secure, temporary session data storage and real-time communication
  • Data is processed within Supabase's secure infrastructure
  • No personal data is shared with Supabase beyond anonymous session information

Third-Party Libraries

Our app uses standard, privacy-focused libraries including:

  • React Native framework components
  • Expo development platform

CHILDREN'S PRIVACY

NRP Sim Lite is intended for medical professionals, students, and trainees in healthcare education. The app does not include age verification mechanisms.

Parents and educators should supervise use by minors. If you believe we have inadvertently collected personal data from a child, please contact us immediately.

DATA SECURITY

Technical Safeguards

  • Secure, encrypted connections for all data transmission
  • Industry-standard database security measures (Supabase infrastructure)
