Zoho Creator HIPAA Compliance Guide

HIPAA governs how covered entities and business associates in the United States protect individually identifiable health information. Zoho Creator does not store health data for its own purposes, but it gives you the building blocks to create applications that can meet HIPAA requirements.

What this covers

Building a HIPAA aware application in Zoho Creator means labelling fields that hold electronic Protected Health Information (ePHI), encrypting that data, controlling access through roles and permissions, and keeping an audit trail of who changed or exported records.

What this section covers

The following guide walks through each of these features and how to configure them within a Zoho Creator application.

Frequently asked questions

Does using Zoho Creator make my application automatically HIPAA compliant?

No. Zoho Creator provides tools such as ePHI labelling, encryption and audit trails, but you are responsible for configuring and using them correctly as the covered entity or business associate.

Can I still integrate a HIPAA sensitive app with other services?

Yes. Zoho Creator supports secure third party integrations with data encrypted in transit, though data protection responsibility passes to the external service once data leaves the platform.
