Backups and data protection

A daily automatic copy, with nothing for you to do

Overview

Your clinic's data is backed up automatically every day at system level — the database together with scanned patient files and clinic images — into a password-protected archive, with a daily health check on the backups.

What you get

  • Automatic daily backup at 3am
  • Covers the database, scanned patient files and clinic images
  • The archive is password-protected
  • A daily health check flags a backup that falls behind

How it works

  1. 1

    A daily copy

    A scheduled task takes a copy every day at 03:00 Cairo time, with no action from you.

  2. 2

    Tiered retention

    Every backup is kept for the first 7 days, then daily for 14 days, weekly for 4 weeks, monthly for 3 months, and yearly for one year.

  3. 3

    Continuous monitoring

    A daily check confirms the latest backup is no older than two days and that storage is within limits; the operations team sees the status on its dashboard.

Where we are honest about the limits

Backups are managed at system level, not from inside the clinic account: there is currently no self-service button to download your own copy, and restore requests go through support. If you want a copy of a record in your hands, you can export a patient file to print or PDF from inside the system.

Why clinics care

  • Protection from data loss with no extra work for you
  • Scanned patient files are protected exactly like the database
  • Restoring to an earlier point in time is possible
