Free to use. Clear about data.

Updated September 13, 2026 · Version 1.2.5

PreAuthDental is a documentation tool for Canadian dental offices. All PDF, Word and RTF exports are free. No account, subscription, license or credit card is required.

Patient cases stay in your browser

Patient fields, clinical notes, attachments and generated documents are processed on your device. The app does not upload these to its servers or to PostHog. It does not record sessions, capture form values or automatically track clicks.

• The active case and attachments are saved in this browser's IndexedDB. You choose whether to resume a saved case.
• Practice settings, preferences and PDF export history use localStorage. Historical license keys may remain on devices that used them.
• Browser storage and downloaded case JSON files are not encrypted by the app. Protect access to this browser, especially on shared computers.
• Clear Case removes the active case and its draft. Previous downloads and export history are separate. Clearing the site's browser data removes stored cases, settings and history.

Basic usage counts

Basic usage is counted automatically to help improve this free tool. A small set of events is sent to PostHog's United States service: opening the builder, loading the sample, starting a case, successfully generating a PDF download, copying the public share link and sending feedback.

Events contain a random identifier that lasts only while the page is open, a broad source such as Reddit or direct, and whether an export came from the sample or a non-sample case. No tracking cookie, stored analytics identifier or device fingerprint is used. A reload starts a separate visit, so these counts measure page visits and actions, not unique people, clinics or return visits.

Events never contain patient names, clinical findings, procedure codes, attachment names, document contents, feedback text or the full page URL. No sessions, form values or general clicks are recorded.

PostHog receives connection information needed to deliver each request. The event uses an IP placeholder, disables location enrichment and person profiles, and the project is configured to discard client IP data. See PostHog's privacy policy.

You can turn counting off here at any time. Only that preference is saved in this browser; it also stops future events in other open builder tabs. Existing opt-outs, Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control are respected. Stopping counting does not delete events already received. Every feature works with counting off.

This replaces the earlier optional analytics design, which used a stored identifier. That old identifier is removed when an updated page loads and is never reused. Historical opt-in events may remain in PostHog; the new counts are labeled separately.

Feedback and sharing

Feedback sends the comments you choose to write and UI target information to the operator. Never include patient information. Sharing copies only a public website link; it does not attach or link your case.

Hosting and existing purchases

Vercel serves this website and may process normal web request information. Recovery endpoints for previous license purchases remain available through Stripe, but new purchases are disabled. Existing purchased license keys are no longer needed to export documents.

Clinical review and device security

This is a documentation aid, not medical advice, a submission service or a coverage guarantee. A qualified provider must review generated documents and current payer requirements. Clinics remain responsible for consent, device access, retention and their applicable privacy obligations.

For privacy or security concerns, contact security@preauthdental.com. Do not send patient information.
