❓ Common Questions#

Q: Is this app free?
✅ Yes! RemoteScreen is completely free for patients and clients.

Q: Is my data secure?
🔒 Your photos and information are encrypted while they are sent to your provider’s HIPAA compliant PostureScreen Cloud and while they are stored there. No method of sending or storing information is completely secure. To learn how your information is handled, read the RemoteScreen Patient App Privacy Policy.

Q: Can I use this for more than one person?
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Yes, with their permission (or as their parent or legal guardian), you can screen family members or friends and send their information to the same provider. RemoteScreen is not directed to children under 13, and PostureCo does not knowingly collect personal information directly from a child under 13. For a child under 13, a parent or legal guardian must complete RemoteScreen on the child’s behalf; the child must not use it on their own. Minors aged 13 to 17 may use it only with a parent’s or legal guardian’s permission and as your provider allows (see the RemoteScreen Patient App Privacy Policy).

Q: What if I make a mistake?
🗑 You can delete and retake any photos before sending them. If already submitted, contact your provider for help.
