Minimal data collection
Privacy
Recall searches run locally in your browser. Artifact4U does not require an account and does not store a search history on its own server.
Search input
The static search index is downloaded to your browser, where matching occurs. Do not enter patient names, prescription numbers, addresses, or other personal information; none of those details are needed to search public recall records.
Analytics
If analytics is enabled for the deployed site, aggregate events may record that a search occurred, the entered search term, the selected classification, and the result count. Do not enter sensitive information in the search box.
Recall alerts
If you request an alert, the email address and recall topics you choose are sent to our email delivery provider, Resend. A single confirmation link must be opened before the address is added to those topics. The address is used only to send recall updates for subscribed topics, and every alert includes an unsubscribe link.
The multi-topic option is unlocked after the browser's share action completes or the page link is copied. The unlocked state is stored only on your current device. Artifact4U does not receive the recipient, destination, social account, or content of your share.
Do not enter patient information in the alert form. You can unsubscribe at any time; unsubscribing removes the address from that topic's mailing segment.
Advertising
If advertising is enabled, advertising providers may use cookies or similar technologies according to their own privacy policies. Consent controls are presented where required.
