Hyperfocus Compliance & AI Evaluation Transparency

1. Professional Responsibility & Ethics

• Clinical Oversight and Control: Hyperfocus allows for full manual editing of all generated content. We believe the psychologist must have the final word; therefore, our tool ensures you can review, edit, and override every AI suggestion before it becomes part of the official record.

• Clinical Voice and Identity: While our system currently offers limited automatic style adaptation , it provides full control over tone, technical level, and formatting. This allows you to manually ensure the output aligns with your unique clinical voice.

• Auditability: We provide transparency when AI is used. All AI-generated content is clearly labeled and distinguishable within the platform to help you track its influence on your documentation.

Maintaining the clinician as the ultimate authority in the assessment process.

2. Privacy, Confidentiality & Data Security

• Canadian Data Residency: We have verified Canadian data residency. All Personal Health Information (PHI) is hosted (data at rest) on Canadian servers to ensure compliance with PHIPA and provincial regulations.

• Health Information Custodian (HIC) Status: We recognize that as a psychologist, YOU are the Health Information Custodian (HIC) under PHIPA. Hyperfocus acts strictly as a "service provider" to support your obligations.

• Healthcare-Grade Security: Our platform utilizes industry-standard security measures, including encryption and enterprise-grade reliability with 99%+ uptime. We also perform regular backups with available recovery options.

Adhering to PHIPA and ensuring Canadian data sovereignty.

3. Informed Consent & Transparency

• Consent Support: We provide basic consent templates to help you discuss the use of AI with your clients.

• Plain-Language Transparency: We believe in transparency regarding how AI benefits the client (e.g., faster turnaround) while clearly stating that it assists with drafting and is not the diagnostic authority.

Empowering clients through clear communication about AI tools.

4. Clinical Utility & Validity

• Consent Support: We provide basic consent templates to help you discuss the use of AI with your clients.

• Canadian Practice Context: Hyperfocus is clearly tailored for psychologists and physicians doing mental health assessments. It is designed with an understanding of psychological assessment standards, educational frameworks, and regulatory requirements.

• Hallucination Safeguards: Our reports are consistently grounded in your input data with built-in safeguards to prevent the generation of unsupported clinical statements or hallucinated content.

• Output Quality: Our system generates fluently written, professional reports with clinical polish and varied sentence structure.

Software purpose-built for the Canadian psychological and mental health landscape.

5. Training Data Ethics & Bias Mitigation

• Ethical Sourcing: We maintain full transparency regarding our models. Currently, no new training data is being actively used to update our software.

• De-identification: In any past or future instances where reports might inform development, we strictly adhere to PHIPA standards for proper de-identification.

• Bias Monitoring: We are committed to ongoing ethical investment, with psychologists and physicians involved in the development process to monitor and mitigate problematic patterns or biases.

Responsible AI development through ethical sourcing and de-identification.

6. Risk Management & Control

• Data Portability: We offer complete data portability with multiple export formats available upon request, ensuring you can take your data with you if you ever choose to leave the service.

• Sandboxed Learning: To protect privacy, any learning or adaptation is fully sandboxed to your individual account. This prevents your clinical insights or client patterns from being shared with other users.

• Data Deletion: We provide a process for the deletion of client data, though currently, this requires vendor approval to ensure data integrity.

Ensuring you maintain custody and control over your clinical data.
