Device Use & Ownership Policy
Loaned Technology with Long-Term Support
All iPads are the property of Islands Against Cancer, Inc. and are provided on loan throughout active treatment. These devices are customized and managed by our team to support your care experience.
Once a patient completes treatment and is formally released from the care of our partnering physician, the iPad will be:
🔄 Remotely wiped to remove all content and logins
🔒 Locked and deactivated
📦 Collected for reassignment to a new patient
All notes, summaries, recordings, and documents created during use will remain safely stored in your personal Google account or the respective patient apps—so you continue to have access, even after returning the iPad.
Partnering with Your Medical Team
We work closely with local physicians and referral offices to ensure that every iPad is preloaded with tools relevant to your individual care. Our team remains available to help troubleshoot, update, or customize your apps as your treatment plan evolves.
Why It Matters
Navigating cancer care is tough—we make it easier. By organizing everything digitally, we reduce stress, increase access to care, and help caregivers stay in sync with your journey.
