  • Shared only when necessary to provide services

  • With matched clinicians (limited to necessary care details)
  • With background check providers (when required)
  • With payment processors (for billing)

8. AI Use Disclosure

CaraLoom utilizes artificial intelligence to:

  • Assess patient care needs

  • Assist in documentation summarization
  • Identify potential care risks
  • Improve matching accuracy

Important Notices:

  • AI recommendations are decision-support tools only
  • Final clinical decisions are made exclusively by licensed clinicians
  • AI output may contain errors and should be reviewed by users
  • The platform continuously refines AI models based on anonymized performance data
  • No automated decision-making will occur without an option for human review

9. Record Retention Policy

  • Platform-generated documentation may be retained according to applicable federal and state laws
  • Users may request record copies subject to identity verification
  • Data retention timelines vary by state and service type
  • Upon termination of an account, data may be archived as required by law

10. Data Breach Notification

If a data breach occurs, affected users will be notified in accordance with applicable law. CaraLoom maintains continuous monitoring for breaches and has incident response protocols in place.

Marketplace Liability & Your Responsibility

CaraLoom is a technology marketplace, not a healthcare provider or staffing agency. We do not employ clinicians and are not responsible for the conduct of any user of our platform. Clinicians are independent licensed professionals running their own practices.

Background checks are not always 100% accurate, may not capture an individual's entire criminal or licensure history, and cannot guarantee safety. Verification badges reflect checks performed at clinician onboarding and may not reflect later events. You must do your own diligence before booking.

All information in clinician profiles, reviews, and messages is user-generated and not independently verified by CaraLoom. Cara and AI features are informational only — not a substitute for professional medical advice. For emergencies, call 911.
