Privacy Policy
Doctor1099 is built to help physicians organize the business side of 1099 work. This Privacy Policy explains what information Doctor1099 may collect, how it may be used, and what types of information should not be submitted to this website.
Last updated: June 2026
1. What Doctor1099 is
Doctor1099 provides educational organization tools, calculators, checklists, guides, and planning resources for physicians who do 1099 work or are considering 1099 work.
Doctor1099 is not a CPA firm, law firm, financial advisory firm, accounting firm, medical practice, credentialing agency, or contract review service.
Doctor1099 does not provide tax, legal, accounting, financial, medical, investment, credentialing, or contract advice. Use Doctor1099 to organize information and questions before working with qualified professionals.
2. Information we may collect
Doctor1099 may collect information that you provide directly, information created when you use the website, and information processed by third-party services used to operate the website.
Information you choose to send
This may include your name, email address, feedback, support requests, form submissions, survey responses, or other information you voluntarily submit through the website.
Basic website information
This may include pages visited, device type, browser type, approximate location based on IP address, referral source, and general website usage information.
Account and payment information
If Doctor1099 later offers paid accounts, membership access, or subscriptions, account information and payment-related information may be collected or processed through third-party services.
3. Free tools and calculator inputs
Many current Doctor1099 free tools are designed to run directly in your browser. Doctor1099 does not intentionally collect calculator inputs unless you submit them through a form, feedback message, account feature, email, support request, or future upload feature.
You should not enter sensitive personal information into free-form fields unless the website specifically asks for it and explains how it will be used.
Use simplified numbers when possible
For calculators and checklists, use approximate or rounded numbers when possible. Doctor1099 is meant to help you organize your thinking, not store sensitive personal financial records.
4. Information you should not submit
Doctor1099 is not designed for patient records, medical records, protected health information, or highly sensitive personal identifiers.
Patient or medical information
- Patient charts
- Protected health information
- Medical records
- Patient names
- Patient dates of birth
- Patient medical record numbers
- Any information that could identify a patient
Sensitive identifiers
- Social Security numbers
- Full bank account numbers
- Full credit card numbers
- Full tax returns unless a future feature specifically supports them
- Passwords
- Documents you are not comfortable sharing with an online tool
5. Future AI document features
Doctor1099 may later offer AI-assisted document organization. If that feature is launched, it should be used only for 1099 business organization documents, not patient records or medical records.
Future AI features may help summarize documents, identify missing items, create checklists, and prepare questions for your CPA, attorney, financial professional, credentialing department, or contract reviewer.
Before launching any AI document upload feature, Doctor1099 should update this Privacy Policy, the Terms of Use, and the Disclaimer to describe how uploads are handled.
Potential document types
- 1099 contracts
- CPA prep summaries
- Credentialing checklists
- Malpractice certificates
- CME and license records
- Entity setup documents
- Retirement plan summaries
AI is not a professional advisor
Any AI output should be treated as an organizational aid only. It should not be treated as tax, legal, accounting, financial, credentialing, contract, or medical advice.
6. How information may be used
Doctor1099 may use collected information to operate the website, improve tools, respond to feedback, provide support, manage accounts, process payments, protect the website, and develop new features.
Website operation
To provide pages, tools, calculators, guides, account access, and website functionality.
Support and feedback
To respond to messages, questions, feedback, bug reports, feature requests, or support requests.
Product improvement
To understand what doctors find useful, improve the website, reduce clutter, and build better tools.
Payments and accounts
If paid memberships are launched, information may be used to manage subscriptions, account access, checkout, billing, renewals, cancellations, and receipts.
Security
To detect abuse, prevent fraud, monitor technical issues, protect the site, and maintain website reliability.
Legal compliance
To comply with applicable laws, enforce site policies, respond to lawful requests, and protect rights or safety.
7. Third-party services
Doctor1099 may use third-party services to operate the website. These services may process information according to their own privacy policies and terms.
Hosting and WordPress services
Website hosting, WordPress plugins, security tools, backups, and performance tools may process basic website and technical information.
Payment processors
If paid plans are launched, payment processors may handle payment information. Doctor1099 should not directly store full credit card numbers.
Analytics and performance tools
Analytics tools may help understand traffic, page usage, errors, and general user behavior so the site can be improved.
8. Cookies and similar technologies
Doctor1099 may use cookies or similar technologies to operate the website, remember preferences, support account login, analyze usage, improve performance, and protect the site.
You can adjust cookie settings in your browser. Some website features may not work properly if cookies are disabled.
9. How information may be shared
Doctor1099 does not sell personal information as a core business model. Information may be shared with service providers, payment processors, hosting providers, analytics providers, security providers, legal professionals, or other parties when needed to operate the website or comply with law.
Examples of limited sharing
- With website hosting or security providers.
- With payment processors if paid plans are launched.
- With analytics or performance tools.
- When required by law, regulation, subpoena, or lawful request.
- To protect Doctor1099, users, or the public from fraud, abuse, or security threats.
- In connection with a business transfer, merger, acquisition, sale, or restructuring.
10. Data retention
Doctor1099 should keep information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.
Feedback messages, account information, payment records, support messages, technical logs, and future document uploads may have different retention periods depending on the feature and legal requirements.
11. Security
Doctor1099 should use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures to protect information. However, no website, online service, email system, or internet transmission is completely secure.
You should avoid submitting highly sensitive information unless the website clearly supports that feature and you are comfortable with the risk.
12. Your choices
Do not submit sensitive information
The simplest privacy protection is to avoid submitting patient information, medical records, Social Security numbers, full bank account numbers, or other highly sensitive information.
