Privacy Policy & Data Ownership Statement
Effective Date: July 4, 2025
Why Axis Operating Systems is Unique
Axis Operating Systems LLC is not a typical cloud-based service. While a secure login is required to access the PWA, all your records, notes, and files stay stored locally on your device.
- You create an account only to access the PWA interface, but your data never leaves your device after you log in.
- Every file, record, and note you create lives solely on your computer, phone, or tablet.
- We have no access to, ability to transmit, or view your information.
- No data is ever sent, stored, or processed outside your computer.
HIPAA Compliance
Because all patient and business data remains strictly on your device and never crosses the internet, this application meets the spirit and letter of HIPAA privacy requirements for electronic Protected Health Information (ePHI):
- No third-party access or storage: There is no "business associate" relationship, because Axis Operating Systems never stores, processes, or transmits your data.
- You are the exclusive data custodian: You, and only you, control all ePHI and sensitive data, which is never at risk of server breaches, cloud hacks, or remote leaks.
- HIPAA rules: If you store, protect, and restrict access to your device in accordance with HIPAA guidelines, you fully meet your obligations—without the risk of cloud misconfiguration or third-party data loss.
No other software can guarantee this level of data isolation and privacy, because no other solution eliminates servers and remote storage completely.
Your Responsibility, Your Data
This platform gives you absolute ownership and responsibility for your information:
- Only you can access, backup, or delete your data. No one else—not even us—can view, recover, or restore your files if lost or deleted.
- If your device is lost, stolen, or damaged, your data may not be recoverable unless you make your own device-level backups.
- If you share your device, others may be able to access your data. Use strong passwords and local device security.
This approach is the most private, secure, and compliant way to store medical, business, or personal records—but it does require you to take full control of your own security and backup practices.
Why Choose This Approach?
- Complete privacy: No data is sent, processed, or stored by anyone except you.
- No data mining, analytics, or marketing tracking.
- Truly secure by design: No one can lose, leak, or steal your data from a cloud, because it’s never there.
This is not just an alternative—it's a fundamentally new, private, and secure way to own your digital information. No other product offers this level of autonomy.

How Your Data Stays 100% Local: The Technology Behind Axis
Axis Operating Systems uses modern, open-source technology to guarantee your data never leaves your device—not even for a second.
- Local Database: Axis uses a technology called IndexedDB (with the Dexie library). This database lives inside your own device's browser, not the cloud.
- Powered by Dexie: Dexie makes IndexedDB faster and more reliable. Your notes and files are stored only on your device.
- PWA (Progressive Web App): Axis runs as a secure, modern browser app on any device. This gives you flexibility, cross-device access, and smooth local data management—so you can operate seamlessly, whether on a Mac, PC, tablet, or phone. All data remains local, with no automatic cloud sync or third-party access.
Why is this better?
- No one—not even us—can see or access your data.
- There's no company server to lose or leak your records.
- You stay HIPAA compliant by default: your data is never transmitted or stored outside your own device.
- You are always in control: want a backup? Use your device's backup tool. Want to delete? Just clear your device storage or uninstall the app.
