Because no data is collected, we cannot use or process your personal information. Any information you input is used purely to run the core features of the App locally on your screen:
Your medication information is kept highly secure by keeping it completely contained within your physical device:
To deliver precise reminders and offline services, DC Meds requests the following permissions:
Camera Permission: If you use the optional camera feature to take a photo of your medicine box, the camera is accessed locally and the photo is saved on your device's private directory. The image is never transmitted online.

Our App is safe for users of all ages, including children under 13. Since we do not collect any personal data, we do not monitor or track children's online activity. We are compliant with COPPA (US), GDPR-K (EU), and Brazil's LGPD guidelines regarding children's safety.
Under regulations like GDPR (Europe) and LGPD (Brazil), you have rights regarding your personal data. Since DC Meds does not collect, store, or share your data on servers, your rights are fully met locally:
Your local databases and settings remain stored on your phone for as long as DC Meds remains installed. Uninstalling the app instantly deletes all local data.
