    When I activate HIPAA on my account, can I change or modify the email later without having to re-active the HIPAA ? 

    When you enable HIPAA on your account, all the fields will be protected by default and not shown in the Notification/Autoresponder Emails.

    You can then remove the protection for some fields so that they are shown in emails.

    When I active HIPAA on my account, will forms that are not HIPAA compliant get deleted ? 

    When you enable HIPAA on your account, all the forms will become HIPAA compliant.

    Can two emails be associated with the account after it is turned HIPAA compliant ?

    Only one email address can be associated with one account but you can add sub-account users and give them access to all the forms or to specific forms.

    If I activate HIPAA, can  I use an existing form I have ?

    Yes.

    If I active HIPAA, and one of my forms has fields that are not HIPAA compliant, will those forms or fields be deleted before HIPAA compliance is activated ? Also, do I need to make the changes to the forms first before HIPAA compliance is activated ?

    If there is a field that is not HIPAA compliant, the system will notify you.

    Can I still edit forms that are not fully HIPAA compliant once I have activated HIPAA compliance on the account ?

    When HIPAA is enabled, all the forms will be HIPAA compliant. It will not be possible to create non-compliant forms.

    If I need to copy a non-HIPAA compliant form, can I make a copy of an existing form, modify it so it's fully HIPAA compliant (perhaps removing/changing some fields) ?


    If I have an integration of my form with Google sheets, will that integration be turned off when I make my account HIPAA compliant?

    The Google Spreadsheets integration is available for HIPAA compliant forms as well.
