Patient health information is among the most sensitive data in existence. SecureVault provides PHIPA-compliant document exchange and managed archiving on Canadian infrastructure.
PHIPA requires health information custodians to protect PHI and use agents providing comparable protection. Storing PHI on US servers does not meet that standard. SecureVault stores all data exclusively on Canadian servers and provides formal agent agreements for health information custodians.
US cloud providers — including those with Canadian data centres — are subject to the US CLOUD Act. Federal agencies can compel disclosure of your clients' data without your knowledge or consent. For regulated professionals, this creates real professional liability. SecureVault is a Canadian company operating exclusively under Canadian law.
Health information custodians are responsible for PHI regardless of where it is stored. A Canadian-sovereign platform ensures you maintain effective custody and control.
PHIPA requires patient records to be retained for at least 10 years after last treatment. SecureVault Managed Archiving automates this with documented schedules.
PHIPA requires notification to patients and the IPC when PHI is breached. SecureVault's breach notification workflow supports this obligation from detection through reporting.
