ATLAS Chrome Extension — Privacy Policy

What the extension does

The ATLAS Chrome extension shows the user's own assessment from Atlas in a browser side panel, split into sections and pieces. The user can copy each piece and paste it into their electronic health record (EHR) by hand. For a supported EHR, the user can also turn on “Fill in my EHR” and press “Fill”: after the user confirms the client shown on the EHR page, the extension puts the chosen pieces into empty text fields of the EHR page open in the active tab. The extension never saves, submits or signs anything in the EHR.

What data it handles

• Assessment content and patient identifiers (for example, the client's name or initials and the clinical text of the assessment), read from Atlas using the user's existing Atlas session. This data is kept only in the memory of the open side panel. It is erased when the panel is closed, when the user switches cases, when the extension detects that the user signed out of Atlas, or after 15 minutes without use. It is never written to the browser's storage.
• The signed-in clinician's name, email and profile photo, read from Atlas to show at the top of the panel who is signed in. They are kept only in the panel's memory, are erased on the same events, and are never stored.
• User preferences stored in the browser: whether the first-use notice was read; short labels the user writes to remember where each type of section goes in their EHR; and, for “Fill in my EHR”, which EHR field label corresponds to each type of section, per EHR site. These preferences never contain patient data.
• The EHR page, only when the user presses “Fill”: the extension reads the visible labels of the text fields and the page text, to find the right field and to check that the record on screen belongs to the same client. Nothing from the EHR page is stored or sent anywhere, except the field label the user chose, saved as described above.
• Clipboard: when the user presses Copy, the selected piece is placed on the computer's clipboard. The operating system may keep clipboard history or sync it to other devices. The extension cannot control that, and it tells the user how to turn those features off.

Where data goes

The extension communicates only with Atlas (https://myatlas.partners, and its test environment https://dev.aba.partners), using the user's own session. It sends no data to any third party. It has no analytics, advertising or tracking. Access to each EHR site is an optional permission that the user grants and can revoke at any time.

Limited Use

The use of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Chrome Web Store User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. Data is used only to provide the extension's single purpose. It is not sold, not transferred to third parties, not used for advertising, and not used for creditworthiness or lending. No person reads user data, except with the user's explicit consent for a specific support request, for security purposes, or to comply with the law.

Health information

Atlas processes protected health information under a Business Associate Agreement with its customers. The extension stores no protected health information at rest.

Removing data

Closing the panel erases the case and the signed-in clinician's details from memory. Uninstalling the extension removes its stored preferences. Questions: contact@aba.partners.
