Privacy Policy

Effective date: October 3, 2026

This page is the privacy policy linked from the App Store listings for Bedside Coach, ChartSlate, and Sibyl Sim. The apps are developed by Brandon Dominguez in California, United States. Each listing's privacy label is Data Not Collected.

Bedside Coach

This section explains what information Bedside Coach processes, where it is stored, and the choices available to you.

Information the developer collects

Bedside Coach does not operate an advertising, analytics, or user-profile service. The developer does not receive your simulations, recordings, transcripts, custom cases, health information, identifiers, or usage history. The app does not sell personal information or use third-party advertising or tracking SDKs.

Apple may process App Store purchases, subscription status, crash information, or speech-recognition requests under Apple's own terms and privacy policies. Bedside Coach receives only the purchase and entitlement information needed to unlock features.

Information processed and stored on your device

The app can create and store the following information locally when you use the corresponding features:

simulation progress, scores, transcripts, notes, and coaching reports;
custom cases and simulated patient demographics entered by you;
microphone audio and speech transcripts used during simulations;
Debrief Coaching recordings, transcripts, speaker timing, and reports; and
settings, tutorial progress, and subscription-entitlement state.

These items are app data on your device. They are not collected by or sent to the developer. Device protections such as your passcode, encryption, backups, and operating-system access controls help protect them.

On-device model

Supported conversations, study planning, and feedback use Apple's on-device model when available.

Microphone audio and speech recognition

Bedside Coach requests microphone access only for features that need spoken interaction or recording.

For Debrief Coaching, the app records room audio after you start a debrief. You must inform everyone in the room and obtain any consent required by your school, employer, or local law. Raw audio is deleted after local analysis unless you turn on Keep raw audio for timestamp playback. Retained audio and generated reports remain on the device until you delete the recording or remove the app.

Speech recognition is performed on device when supported. If on-device speech recognition is unavailable for the selected language or device, Apple's speech recognition service may process audio according to Apple's privacy terms.

Custom cases and health information

Bedside Coach is a simulation and education tool. Do not enter real patient information, protected health information, or other confidential clinical data. Use fictional or properly deidentified information only. The app warns before exporting or sharing case data and provides a deidentified Student Safe export.

Sharing you initiate

The app does not automatically upload your data. You may choose to export or share a case, QR code, result package, report, calibration file, or retained audio through system features such as AirDrop, Files, the share sheet, local network sessions, or Bluetooth. Information you share leaves the app and is then governed by the recipient and the service you selected. Review exported content before sharing it.

Permissions

Depending on the features you choose, Bedside Coach may request access to the microphone, speech recognition, camera, photo library, Bluetooth, local network, or spatial/world sensing. These permissions support simulation interactions, case QR codes, nearby practice sessions, Apple Watch cues, and Apple Vision Pro placement. You can change permission access in system Settings.

Data deletion

You can delete custom cases, recordings, reports, and history from their corresponding screens in the app. Deleting the app removes its locally stored data, subject to device backups and files you previously exported. Files shared to another app, device, or person must be deleted from that destination separately.

Children

Bedside Coach is intended for nursing students and educators and is not directed to children under 13. The developer does not knowingly collect children's personal information.

ChartSlate

ChartSlate's App Store privacy label is Data Not Collected.

No account, advertising, developer analytics, or tracking. No developer collection of charts, activities, learner work, or files. Content stays on device unless you choose to share it or start a nearby session. Optional model assistance runs on device, with no cloud model fallback. ChartSlate works offline.

Sibyl Sim

Sibyl Sim's App Store privacy label is Data Not Collected.

Session recordings and transcript evidence remain in protected local storage on the Control Hub. Faculty decide what to share. Devices require pairing and session approval before media can cross the room network. Institutions are responsible for consent, privacy, retention, security review, and appropriate device management.

Optional offline captions and transcripts are included. Check speech readiness and download supported language assets from Settings or Guided Setup before the room goes offline. Automatic LAN is the default. Advanced Connections offers Campus Direct and Ethernet Required for IT-approved deployments.

Changes to this policy

This policy may be updated when app behavior or legal requirements change. The current version and effective date will be posted at https://www.bedsidecoach.app/privacy.
