We do not collect your medical records.
CancerCareE is an independent information platform about cancer. When you request an introduction to a treatment center, we ask only for your name and contact details so that the center can reach you directly. We do not request, store, or review pathology reports, scans, lab results, or treatment history.
Who operates this site: CancerCareE is an independent information resource based in Iran, founded and operated by Reza Abdollahi. This site is not a clinic or a treatment center. It publishes educational content on cancer treatments, access pathways, and the regulatory frameworks of different countries, and — only upon request — provides an optional introduction between a patient and a center the patient has chosen.

Please do not send medical records through either channel. We do not receive them.
What we collect and what we do not
Most of this site can be used without creating an account, without providing personal information, and without submitting anything. The table below is the clearest way to explain that boundary.
| What we may ask for | What we do not ask for |
|---|---|
| Your name | Pathology reports |
| Phone or WhatsApp number | CT or MRI scans |
| Email, if you prefer it | Laboratory results |
| Country of residence | Genetic test reports |
| The type of center you are interested in | Medical history, prescriptions, or treatment records |
We ask for this information only when you decide to request an introduction to a center. It is not required to browse the site.
Why we ask for this information
We collect the minimum information necessary for a single purpose: to let the center you have chosen contact you directly. Nothing more.
- To respond to a message you send us;
- To share your name and contact details with a center, when you explicitly request it;
- To maintain the security and technical operation of the site;
- To comply with applicable legal requirements.
We do not use your information to diagnose illness, select treatment, recommend medication, or assess your eligibility for a clinical trial. Those decisions belong to licensed physicians.
How introductions work
One function of this site is to help you make initial contact with a treatment center of your choice, if you request it.
When you request an introduction, we share your name and contact details with the center you have selected. That is the entire exchange. We do not share medical records, because we do not collect them.
What we share: your name and contact details.
What we do not share: anything medical.
After the introduction, the center contacts you directly. It may ask you for medical records. You send them through the center's own channel and under the center's own privacy policy. We do not see this exchange, and we do not control what the center does with the information you give it.
Details of our collaboration model with centers are set out on the Financial Transparency page.
Information collected automatically
Like most websites, CancerCareE may receive limited technical information when you visit: IP address, browser and device type, language preference, approximate location derived from technical data, pages visited, referring site, and time of access.
This information may be collected through cookies, analytics tools, or security systems. We use it to understand how the site is used, to keep it secure, and to improve it. We do not use it to make medical decisions about individuals.
Where applicable law requires consent for non-essential cookies, the site provides a way to accept, reject, or manage them. Cookie settings may vary depending on your browser, location, and the technologies used on the site.
Retention, security, and cross-border transfers
We retain personal information only for as long as is reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected. Because the site is designed to collect very little, the volume of retained data is limited.
We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect the information we hold against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure. However, no internet transmission or electronic storage system can be guaranteed completely secure; please avoid sending sensitive medical information through ordinary communication channels.
Because we use service providers and connect users with centers in different countries, personal information may in some cases be processed outside your country. Where applicable privacy laws set requirements for cross-border transfers, we endeavor to apply the safeguards those laws require.
Your privacy rights
Depending on the law that applies to you, you may have the right to access the contact information we hold, to correct or delete it, to object to or restrict certain processing, to withdraw consent where processing is based on consent, and to lodge a complaint with the relevant data protection authority.
Not every right applies in every circumstance. To exercise a right that applies to you, use the contact details at the top of this page.
If your information has already been shared with a center because you requested an introduction, we may not be able to delete what that center holds. You may need to contact the center directly as well. The same applies if, after an introduction, you no longer wish a center to contact you.
Children, third-party sites, and changes
Children. Some of the content on this site concerns childhood cancers, and parents or legal guardians may use the platform on behalf of a minor. Where an introduction to a treatment center concerns a minor, the decision to disclose contact details and any subsequent medical information rests with the parent, guardian, or legal representative.
Third-party sites. This site links to treatment centers, scientific organizations, and government bodies. When you leave CancerCareE and interact directly with an external site, that site's privacy policy applies. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of independent third parties.
Changes. We may update this policy as the site, technology, business model, partnerships, or applicable law change. The updated version will be published on this page, and the "Last updated" date at the top indicates the current version.

One principle, stated plainly
You should not have to hand over your medical records just to learn about your options.
For ordinary use of the site, this means access to information without the collection of a medical file.
For a requested introduction to a center, this means sharing limited contact details so that the center can reach you directly.
Minimizing data collection is one of the simplest ways to respect patient privacy.
