Encrypted HIPAA compliant forms for heathcare, secure online forms

How SecureForm Works

1. SecureForm Setup

With FormBuilder, all you have to do is:

Use our web interface to configure what happens to the data that is submitted via your form. There are a variety of options available, allowing you to totally customize how your forms behave and how the data is processed.
Use Form Builder to visually create your form.

Otherwise, getting started with SecureForm is as easy as 1-2-3:

You design your own web site forms and/or PDF forms.
Use our web interface to configure what happens to the data that is submitted via your forms.
Point your form to the web address that we provide to you.

That's it!

2. SecureForm Processing: End-user Perspective

Web Site Forms

If your form is setup as a web page on your site or created using FormBuilder:

A user visits your web site and fills out your web form.
When they have completed filling out the form, they press the "Submit" button.
The data they entered is sent to LuxSci via the secure web address we provide to you.
If the data is sent successfully, the visitor is redirected to a "Success" page on your web site.
If the data could not be sent successfully, the visitor is redirected to a "Failure" page on your web site instead.

Note that this process is always the same regardless of where your web site is hosted. Also, unless your web form is misconfigured, the visitor will never be redirected from your web site and will always see your URLs in the address bar. With web site forms, the submission process to LuxSci's servers is always fully transparent to the user.

PDF Forms

If your form is in a PDF, the process is similar:

The user opens your PDF file and fills out the form.
When they have completed filling out the form, they press the "Submit" button.
The data they entered is sent to LuxSci via the secure endpoint web address we provide to you. For PDFs, the user may be prompted to first confirm that they trust the address to where the form data is being sent.
On success, the user is shown your custom "Success PDF".
On failure, the user is shown your custom "Failure PDF".

3. Your SecureForm Results: Delivered

FAQs: Perhaps you were wondering...?

Can I use my own forms?

Yes. SecureForm integrates with any web or PDF form hosted anywhere. A few minutes is all that it takes to update an existing form to send its data to SecureForm for processing and delivery or storage.

Do I need to host my web site with LuxSci to use SecureForm?

No. You can keep your web site where it is and either integrate its existing forms with SecureForm, or link your site to forms saved in SecureForm FormBuilder.

What format can I get the form data in?

SecureForm will transmit or save your form data in any combination of formats: plain text, two-column HTML, CSV (Excel), XML, refilled custom templates (HTML, XML, or other), and re-filled PDF templates (even with the data from web form submissions).

Where does the form data go?

SecureForm can transmit or save your form data to many different locations (Integrations). See: "How SecureForm Works".

Do I get a trustmark or seal for my website?

Yes. HIPAA customers get a trustmark that looks like this:

LuxSci helps ensure HIPAA-compliance for email and web services.

Do you make or design the forms for me?

We do not make your forms. You or your web designer can modify your existing forms, make new forms hosted elsewhere, or use SecureForm visual form builder to make and host new forms. We do provide custom consulting services for form design. This is $250/hour.

Do you migrate my existing forms to FormBuilder?

We do not manage or migrate your forms. You or your web designer can migrate your existing forms, make new forms hosted elsewhere, or use SecureForm visual form builder to make and host new forms.

Do I have to know how to program?

You don't need programming skills when using the SecureForm visual form builder or PDF forms. When designing or updating your existing/external web forms, you or your web designer will have to edit a couple of lines of HTML code to direct the form submissions to SecureForm; if a content management system such as Gravity Forms for Wordpress generates or dynamically manages your forms, then you may need a little coding to integrate SecureForm.

How many forms or submissions can I have?

Pricing is based on the number of forms and number of submissions per day. See the Compare Plans. The tiers are:

Starter: Up to 3 forms and up to 1,000 posts/day
Professional: Up to 25 forms and up to 5,000 posts/day
Enterprise: Up to 100 forms and up to 10,000 posts/day

For larger limits, please contact sales.

How secure are the forms?

When using SecureForm, data transmits from the end-user's browser (or PDF) to LuxSci, encrypted using strong TLS ciphers. Once it arrives, what happens next depends on the integrations you configure; the security of the results is then, to a certain degree, your choice. For example:

Encrypted Email: The data can be sent encrypted using PGP, S/MIME, Forced TLS, or via Escrow secure Web pickup.
SecureChat: You can send form data to recipients securely using our SecureChat real-time communication and collaboration system. These messages are AES-256-encrypted at rest and encrypted via TLS during transmission.
Secure FTP: You can upload data and files to your server using Secure FTP and a strong cipher like AES 256. Once the files are there, their security is up to you.
MySQL Database: You can save your form data to a database and you have the option of having all files and data encrypted at rest with native AES encryption.
WebAide File Storage: You can save your form data to our WebAide Documents collaborative online file storage system. You can choose to have this data be automatically and seamlessly PGP-encrypted.
WebHook Integrations: Data can be translated securely (over TLS) to external services using WebHooks.

You do not need your own TLS certificate to use SecureForm; however, if you are hosting your forms on your own website, we do recommend that you secure that site with TLS to protect your form pages themselves from alteration/hacking before getting to your end users.

What kinds of reports do you have?

SecureForm includes detailed reports of all successful form posts, and of many kinds of post failures (including emailed alerts of important types of failures). If saving your data to a hosted database, SecureForm provides an audit trail of views and deletions (if such are permitted) of all rows of posted data accessed via our API or or Web-based Form Database viewer.

Are digital signatures supported?

Yes. Users of your web-based forms can sign a written signature using their mouse, stylus, or finger, and it's possible to capture and deliver that signature along with your form post. The post can even auto-append to refilled PDF templates or inserted inline in refilled HTML templates. See Ink Signatures.

Does SecureForm have an API?

Yes. SecureForm has an API that allows listing, downloading, and optional deletion of SecureForm data stored to a hosted database.

Can I use my own URL for branding/white labeling SecureForm?

Yes. You can order Private Labeling and then customize all URLs so that LuxSci's domain names are not visible anywhere. You will also need to buy your own TLS certificate or purchase one from LuxSci.

Feature
Web (HMTL) form submit via HTTP POST or GET
Web Forms: Custom success and failure pages
You supply links to your own success and failure web pages; the end user is shown these once the form posting completes. For PDF forms, you supply your own success and failure PDF documents to be displayed to the end user once the form post is complete.
PDF Forms: Custom success and failure PDFs
You can upload a PDF to show on successful form submission and, optionally, one to display on failure. The success PDF can be a "template" so that form data can be re-filled back into it before it is sent back to the user. This allows you to either give the user a copy of the completed form or a personalized success page.
Ink Signatures: Capture hand written signatures in web forms.
Supports up to 25 files & 50 MB of data in each form post.
All posted files are automatically scanned for viruses; posts with viruses are rejected.
Integrate with client-side AJAX form submission
Forms can be configured to return only HTTP status codes (e.g. 200 for success, and 400+ for failure) so that your web site JavaScript processes can submit forms, know if the submission was successful or not, and then take further custom actions based on the result. This "AJAX Mode" is useful for: Auto-detecting and handling any kind of submission failure. Performing "behind-the-scenes" form posts Complex business logic Continuing operation on the same page after the form post is complete (e.g. after re-drawing part of the page). Any situation where you do not want to navigate away from the current page.
Suppress/skip selected form fields
Internationalization: all form data converted to UTF-8
Dynamically name refilled template files with field values and time/date stamps.
When using PDF or text template files, you can specify rules for file name creation so that each post can have a different or unique name. You can insert date and time data as well as content from the form post itself.
Enable form submitter to download his/her submitted web form data securely
You provide a Template (PDF or other format) and SecureForm refills it and saves that temporarily. SecureForm passes a link to your "Success" web form page; you display that link to your end user (the "Success" page must be dynamic and not plain HTML). The end user has one hour to download that file. SSL is used for the download link if you are using SSL for your form posts Branding is used for the download link if you have Private Labeling for your SecureForm Only someone at the end-user's IP Address uses this special download link. The temporary download expires in 1 hour Compatible with Ink Signatures -- the signatures will be appended to PDF templates. Note that you must have the ability to program your web form success page so that it can read the passed web address and display that to the end user as a link. This feature only works with Web Forms.

HIPAA-compliant Form

When operating your website or database, you need to ensure that all sensitive client or patient information is secure and protected from unapproved eyes. This means using secure web forms. Unsecured forms and legal documents can provide easy access for hackers to infiltrate and collect confidential information, which is why LuxSci developed a secure web form solution. LuxSci's SecureForm processing allows you to add and store HIPAA- (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) compliant patient forms, tax documents, legal forms, etc., in order to ensure your online services stay protected and legal.

SecureForm seamlessly integrates with any of your company's current web or PDF forms. SecureForm is compatible with any CMS (including WordPress), as well as custom-coded pages made using PHP, .NET, and any other language. You can save your data in multiple formats: plain text, two-column html, CSV (Excel), XML, refilled custom templates (HTML, XML, or other), and refilled PDF templates (even with data from Web forms). Our SecureForm FormBuilder allows you to use our web interface to configure and customize your own forms without any coding knowledge. SecureForm ensures that your data remains protected during transmission, using TLS encryption, and at rest, using PGP and/or AES encryption. Note: if you are a LuxSci HIPAA customer, SecureForm automatically configures for your compliance.

Secure Digital Signature Forms

One of our exciting HIPAA-compliant SecureForm features is Ink Signatures. LuxSci's Ink Signatures are simple web-based agreement boxes that allow you to easily capture the authentic handwritten signatures of anyone filling out a SecureForm-enabled web form. There's no special software or technical knowledge required; you can sign with a mouse, a stylus, or a touchscreen. This user-friendly feature provides an easy way to establish signed agreements and is much easier to implement than standard digital signatures.
