Privacy Policy
What This Policy Covers
This Privacy Policy explains how PatientLead Health LLC ("PatientLead," "we," "us," or "our") handles information across all of our products and services, including:
- Throughline (throughline.patientlead.health) — a care companion for chronic illness
- PriorAuthPro (priorauthpro.patientlead.health) — an insurance appeal packet generator
- patientlead.health — this marketing and informational website
If you have questions, contact us at hello@patientlead.health.
The Short Version: The health information you provide to our tools is processed on your device or in transit to generate documents. We do not store your health information on our servers. Throughline stores data in your browser's local storage. PriorAuthPro processes denial letters in memory and does not retain them after your session. We collect limited technical information about visits to our websites, described below.
1. Information We Collect
1.1 Information You Provide to Throughline
Throughline processes your conversation to build structured medical documents. All conversation data and generated artifacts are stored in your browser's local storage on your device. We do not receive, store, or have access to this information. If you clear your browser data, this information is deleted.
When you send a message, it is transmitted to our API for processing by Claude AI. The message is processed and a response is returned. We do not log, store, or retain the content of these messages beyond the duration needed to generate a response.
1.2 Information You Provide to PriorAuthPro
PriorAuthPro processes denial letters and patient-provided details to generate appeal packets. The health information you enter (denial details, diagnosis, treatment history, provider information, member ID) is processed to generate your documents. We do not store this health information on our servers after processing is complete.
PriorAuthPro transmits denial letter content to Claude AI for analysis. This transmission is necessary to classify the denial and generate appeal language. The content is processed in memory and is not retained after your session.
1.3 Optional Intelligence Data (PriorAuthPro)
You may optionally choose to share anonymized, non-identifying metadata about your appeal to help improve outcomes for future patients. This data includes only enumerated values such as insurer name, denial category, broad treatment category, state, and documentation strategy flags. It does not include your name, diagnosis, treatment details, member ID, provider information, or any health information. See our Intelligence Data Contract for the complete specification of what is and is not collected.
1.4 Technical Information
When you visit our websites, we may collect standard technical information including: browser type and version, device type, pages visited, referring URL, and general geographic region derived from IP address. We do not store raw IP addresses in analytics or intelligence systems.
