Privacy Policy
Last updated: August 28, 2026
RateMyUnit helps nurses share honest reviews of hospitals and units. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have.
Information we collect
When you submit a review, we may collect:
- Your email address, to verify your submission
- An optional phone number, if you choose to provide one
- Your ratings for staffing, pay, management, and safety
- An optional written comment about your experience
- The hospital or unit you are reviewing
When you use our website, we may also collect basic technical information such as browser type, device information, and pages visited. This helps us keep the service secure and working properly.
How we use your information
We use the information we collect to:
- Verify review submissions and prevent abuse
- Publish approved reviews for other nurses to read
- Operate, maintain, and improve RateMyUnit
- Respond to questions or requests related to your submission
- Protect the security and integrity of our platform
We do not sell your personal information.
What appears publicly
Published reviews show hospital ratings, comments, and general review activity. They do not display your email address or phone number to the public.
Service providers
We use trusted third-party services to help run RateMyUnit, such as email delivery for verification codes and hosting providers. These services may process limited personal information on our behalf and only as needed to provide their services.
Data retention
We keep review and account-related information for as long as needed to operate the service, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our policies.
Your choices
You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information associated with your review by contacting us. We may need to keep certain information when required by law or for legitimate business purposes.
Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect personal information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will post the updated policy on this page with a revised date.
