Facebook Messenger isn’t HIPAA-compliant, which can put your facility and your patient’s data at risk.

Facebook Messenger's handling of pictures and videos is not fully contained within the platform. This makes it unsuitable for sharing sensitive healthcare information.
Consumer apps like Facebook Messenger lack security for healthcare communication and fail to comply with HIPAA, GDPR, HISO, and OAIC standards. Using these apps risks severe penalties and puts sensitive patient data at risk.
Celo ensures all data is password-protected and encrypted with healthcare-grade security protocols. No patient information, including clinical photographs, is permanently stored on the user’s device, keeping sensitive data safe.
Celo securely stores data and offers the option to integrate with Electronic Medical Records (EMRs). This helps meet data sovereignty requirements while offering robust protection and easy accessibility, ensuring sensitive patient information is securely managed.
All photos and documents in Celo are stored exclusively in the Celo Secure Library, isolated from third-party servers or cloud services. Clinicians can also attach consent records to clinical photos, ensuring patient consent is properly documented and securely stored.
