Medical & Data-Use Disclaimer
Last updated: July 16, 2026
Not medical advice
HealthTranslate Global is designed to help patients and healthcare providers communicate across language barriers. It is a communication aid, not a medical device, diagnostic tool, or substitute for professional medical judgment.
Translations and explanations produced by the app are generated automatically and may contain errors, omissions, or culturally inappropriate phrasing. Always verify critical health information with a qualified medical interpreter, translator, or licensed clinician before making care decisions.
Emergency situations
If you or someone else is experiencing a medical emergency, call your local emergency number immediately. Do not rely on this app for emergency diagnosis, triage, or treatment instructions.
Translation limitations
- Automated translation may not capture medical nuance, regional dialects, idioms, or context-specific meaning.
- The medical phrase library and glossary are for reference only and should not replace a trained human interpreter where accuracy is essential.
- Users are responsible for confirming that the other party understands the translated message before acting on it.
Health data handling
HealthTranslate Global is built to support clinical communication. We treat health-related information with care and limit how it is collected, stored, and shared.
- Translations are processed to provide results and are not retained longer than necessary for the active session or feature.
- We do not sell personal or health-related information to third parties.
- Audio, images, and text you submit are processed only to generate the translation or explanation you request.
- You should avoid entering highly sensitive identifiers (such as full Social Security numbers or medical record numbers) unless required for your workflow.
Use of this app does not by itself make HealthTranslate Global or its operator a covered entity or business associate under HIPAA. Organizations that use HealthTranslate Global as part of a healthcare workflow are responsible for ensuring their own compliance with applicable privacy and security laws, including HIPAA where it applies.
User responsibilities
- Use HealthTranslate Global only as a supplement to, not a replacement for, qualified human interpretation.
- Confirm understanding with the patient or provider before acting on any translation.
- Follow your organization's policies for handling protected health information (PHI).
- Do not use the app for emergency diagnosis or treatment decisions.
Changes to this disclaimer
We may update this disclaimer as the app evolves. Continued use of HealthTranslate Global after changes means you accept the revised disclaimer.
