1. About these terms

1.1. These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the Fyllio ePortfolio platform, mobile and web applications, and related services ("Service").

1.2. By creating an account, accepting an invitation, or otherwise using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

1.3. We may update these Terms. We will provide reasonable notice of material changes (for example by email or in-product notice). Your continued use after the effective date of a change constitutes acceptance. If you are a consumer, see section 17 for your rights to cancel.

2. Who we are and what we do

2.1. Fyllio provides a secure, role-based, UK-hosted ePortfolio for doctors in training and their assessors/supervisors (including features for evidence, WBAs, PDP, CPD, reflections, MSF, dashboards, email invitations and tokenised sign-off links).

2.2. Fyllio is independent of the GMC, Royal Colleges, deaneries and employers. We do not guarantee ARCP/CCT outcomes or acceptance of evidence by any third party.

2.3. The Service does not provide medical advice and must not be used to deliver clinical care or make clinical decisions.

3. Eligibility and accounts

3.1. You must be at least 18 and a healthcare professional or invited participant (e.g., supervisor/assessor/MSF rater) to use the Service.

3.2. You are responsible for your account, devices, and keeping your login details secure. You must promptly notify us of suspected unauthorised access.

3.3. External assessors/supervisors may access tokenised links without creating a full account. Keep such links confidential; anyone with the link may be able to act as if they were you.

4. Using the Service

4.1. Role-based access: The Service limits what each role can see/do. You must only access data you are authorised to access.

4.2. Tokenised sign-off & e-signatures: Completing a sign-off via a tokenised link or in-app approval constitutes your electronic signature. We maintain audit logs (timestamps, actor, method, metadata).

4.3. Uploads & sharing: You can upload evidence, reflections, CPD, WBAs and other materials and control who can see them. Carefully check visibility settings before sharing.

4.4. AI-assistance features (if enabled): AI outputs may be incorrect or incomplete and are for drafting/organising only. Do not input patient-identifiable information into AI prompts. You remain responsible for reviewing any AI-assisted content.

4.5. Beta features: Some features may be labelled beta or preview. They are provided "as is" and may change or be withdrawn.

5. Acceptable use

You must not:

5.1. Upload illegal, defamatory, discriminatory, harassing, infringing or otherwise unlawful content.

5.2. Upload or disclose patient-identifiable information unless lawful, strictly necessary, and permitted under your professional/organisational policies; you must minimise and anonymise wherever possible.

5.3. Circumvent security, probe or test our systems, or interfere with the Service.

5.4. Share tokenised links or credentials in an unsafe way; publish them or store them in public places.

5.5. Misrepresent your identity or authority; submit false sign-offs or forge approvals.

5.6. Copy, reverse engineer, or create derivative works from the Service except as permitted by law.

We may suspend or remove content, or suspend/terminate access, where we reasonably believe these Terms or law are breached (see section 15).

6. Your content and intellectual property

6.1. You own the content you upload ("User Content"). You grant Fyllio a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to host, process, display and transmit your User Content to provide and improve the Service, operate safety and security features, and as required by law.

6.2. You confirm that you have all rights needed for us and authorised viewers to use your User Content as intended, and that your uploads comply with law and professional obligations.

6.3. You can delete your User Content in the Service. Back-ups and logs may persist for a limited period consistent with our data retention and security practices.

(a) If you sign up directly, Fyllio generally acts as controller of your account/profile data and certain Service logs.

(b) Where your Organisation (e.g., Trust/deanery/college/employer) has contracted for your use, that Organisation will usually be controller for your training/portfolio records and Fyllio acts as processor; the Data Processing Addendum in Schedule 1 applies.

8.3. Special category data: Your portfolio may include data about your professional practice. You must not upload patient-identifiable data unless lawful and strictly necessary. Our default reflective practice tools support anonymisation.

8.4. Emails & communications: We use email to send invitations, notifications, receipts and service messages. Marketing communications are only sent with a lawful basis (e.g., consent); you can opt out at any time.

8.5. We use UK-based hosting. A current list of sub-processors is available on request. We implement appropriate technical and organisational security measures proportionate to risk.

9. Data portability, export and retention

9.1. You may export your portfolio data in commonly used formats from within the Service (or by contacting support).

9.2. On account closure (by you or us), we will retain your User Content for 90 days to enable export on request, then delete or irreversibly anonymise it unless we must retain it by law or legitimate interest (e.g., security logs, audit, legal claims).

10. Service availability and support

If you cancel within 14 days after performance has begun, we may deduct a proportionate amount for the period used.
