What Data is Collected

Doximity collects professional and behavioral data including usage patterns, device identifiers, and in-app activity. Diagnostic data about how users interact with the app is gathered through Bugsnag and Firebase, which monitor crashes and performance. Communication features powered by Twilio, 100ms, and Telnyx WebRTC may process audio and messaging content.

Third-Party Data Sharing

Behavioral and usage data is shared with the following third-party services:

• Segment Analytics - Collects and routes behavioral data to downstream advertising and analytics platforms
• Singular - Attribution service that shares user activity data with advertising networks to measure ad performance
• Firebase - Google's platform for app diagnostics, crash reporting, and usage analytics
• Bugsnag - Crash and error monitoring service that receives diagnostic information about user sessions
• Twilio, 100ms, Telnyx WebRTC - Communication infrastructure providers that handle call and messaging data
• Apollo GraphQL - Data query layer used for app-to-server communication

Understanding the Scores

Positive Security Features

• Network communications are well-secured, with strong protections against interception of data in transit.

Areas for Improvement

• Local data storage uses weaker protection settings than expected for a medical platform, increasing risk if a device is lost or accessed without authorization.
• Behavioral data flows to advertising and attribution networks through Segment and Singular. Clearer in-app controls to limit this sharing would better protect user privacy.
• The level of diagnostic and behavioral data collected across multiple third-party services exceeds what is typical for a professional medical networking app.
