Hello! just checking in on the status of this! Do you know if this will be coming in the next 6 months? We will need to be HIPAA compliant in this next year, so if this isn't on the near roadmap, then we will unfortunately need to migrate off of Render

stephan

Would love render to be hipaa compliant

kevinh

danielle we would also love to use your service but need HIPAA compliance for some of our projects and it isn't worth the hassle of moving if we can't move all of them! I hope this is something you can add in the future.

Stephanie Liu

Hi danielle, we have the same need for HDS, which is the HIPAA French equivalent.
BUT, as Render is only a PAAS, and if I'm understanding well, it does not handle or store user data?
So, it should not have the need of owning itself the compliance if the cloud provider/IAAS behind Render has it?
Am I wrong?
Thanks

danielle

bipper: Hey there! We're still scoping out what our legal requirements are for HIPAA and HDS, so I can't give you an exact answer. However, we predict that we might need to have this compliance because of Render's managed databases, persistent disks, or service logs which we store temporarily.

When we make progress on investigating this, we'll continue to update this post.

danielle: Hi! It’s been a few months since the last reply, are there any updates or ETA on this?

danielle

Khan Winter: Hi Khan- unfortunately, we don't currently have any updates on HIPAA Compliance for Render.

chahn

danielle: Any update on this? We would love to use Render for our critical infrastructure but we have strict HIPPA requirements. We desperately want to move away from Heroku and AWS.

danielle

chahn: Hi chahn- Unfortunately, we still don't have any updates at this time.

I have an application I’d very much like to move from Heroku to Render. But HIPAA compliance is an absolute need for me and my client
