Our Commitment to Privacy

ResidencyCAS is committed to protecting the privacy and confidentiality of all applicants and their data. We collect your personal information solely to facilitate the process of applying to residency programs and to ensure a smooth and secure application process.

What We Do (and Don’t Do) With Your Data

The information you submit through ResidencyCAS is shared only with those who you authorize to access it as part of the application process. This may include the residency programs to which you apply, your medical school (if you allow such access), and authorized ResidencyCAS support staff who assist in application processing.

We do not sell your personal data, and we do not use your information for advertising or marketing purposes within ResidencyCAS.

In limited cases, your data may be shared with service providers, affiliates, or partners who help us operate and improve the ResidencyCAS platform, as outlined in our Privacy Policy. These parties are required to adhere to our privacy and security standards.

In some cases, we may use de-identified or aggregated data to support institution review board (IRB)- approved research for specific purposes, including improving our services or helping our specialty partners understand trends in residency recruitment. This data cannot be linked back to you individually.

How We Protect Your Data

ResidencyCAS uses industry-standard security measures – including encryption, secure servers, and strict access controls – to protect your information. Access is limited to authorized individuals involved in the residency application process, such as program directors, coordinators, your medical school (if applicable), and ResidencyCAS technical and support staff.
