What This Means for Our Clients

The digital transformation of oncology care requires more than just technological innovation—it demands a secure, transparent, and efficient way of working. With growing regulatory requirements, increasing cyber threats, and the need for seamless data integration, healthcare providers, clinicians, and their patients need reliable digital tools that protect data while improving workflows.

Careology has achieved our SOC 2 Type 1 examination as well as our HIPAA Security Compliance Assessment. This shows our commitment to ensuring all sensitive health and operational data—whether from patients, members, or clinicians—is handled with the highest levels of security and compliance.

  • SOC 2 Type 1 Examination Verifies that Careology has strong security controls and operational processes in place to meet the highest industry standards for confidentiality, availability, and data integrity. This ensures that our platform is built with robust safeguards to protect against security risks.

  • HIPAA Security Compliance Assessment Demonstrates our adherence to strict U.S. healthcare privacy regulations, ensuring that Protected Health Information (PHI) is securely managed and remains confidential at all times.

  • GDPR Compliance: As a company supporting healthcare providers across the UK and EU, Careology also adheres to the principles of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), further strengthening our commitment to data protection, privacy, and compliance.

More Than Data Security—A Commitment to Operational Excellence

At Careology, compliance is not just about data protection—it’s about enhancing the way healthcare teams work. Digital health solutions must be seamlessly integrated into existing clinical workflows, reducing admin burden while ensuring data security, compliance, and operational efficiency.

Our commitment to security and compliance benefits healthcare providers by:

  • Providing confidence that all patient, clinician, and provider data is handled securely.

  • Facilitating partnerships with healthcare institutions that require stringent compliance with data security standards.

What’s Next?

Careology’s approach to security, compliance, and innovation is proactive. We are already working towards SOC 2 Type 2 examination, which will further validate the effectiveness of our security controls over time.

Security and compliance are not one-time achievements—they are ongoing commitments. By continuously evolving our standards, we ensure that Careology remains a trusted partner for oncology providers, patients, and their care teams.
