Real Talk about Response Time

Disclaimer
A quick reminder that DigiCuris is no substitute for professional advice. It’s not intended for therapeutic purposes, diagnosis, or treatment of any health condition. We provide the Program “as is,” and we, along with our partners, hold no liability for any reliance on the information provided.
Emergencies
For life-threatening emergencies, dial Triple Zero (000) for immediate assistance. DigiCuris is not equipped for such situations.

Powered by Third-Party Support
Behind the scenes, third-party support from Australian software developer iMSX, Twilio for messaging, and Amazon Web Services for web hosting keeps DigiCuris running smoothly. These organisations may access your personal information, as detailed below.

The Program is your go-to for general informational and educational purposes, tailored for your overall condition, and specific to your diagnosis or lifestyle. We respect your information; however, we don’t conduct examinations or assessments.
Advice Matters
Seeking medical advice or treatment? Connect with a qualified healthcare professional as DigiCuris can’t provide such service.
