    Terms of use

    Last updated 11 November 2026.

    These terms apply when you use docfolio.co.uk, a DocFolio account, or the CoverTest browser extension. By creating an account or using the site, you agree to them. Please read them alongside our privacy policy.

    Who we are

    DocFolio is run by Dr Cameron Dent, a sole trader in England.

    • Who we are: Dr Cameron Dent, trading as DocFolio.
    • Email: hello@docfolio.co.uk
    • Post: DocFolio, 27 Old Gloucester Street, London, WC1N 3AX
    • ICO registration number: C2084301

    What DocFolio is, and what it isn't

    DocFolio is a planning tool for doctors applying to UK specialty training. It helps you organise your portfolio, estimate your self-assessment score, track dates and practise for interviews.

    • Our guidance is a guide, not the official word. We compile scoring criteria, dates, competition ratios, opportunities and interview material from public sources and check them regularly. They can still be wrong, incomplete or out of date, and recruitment offices change things. Dates marked as expected are estimates. Always check the official sources before you rely on anything: NHS England's Medical Hub, your specialty's recruitment office, the applicant handbook and the self-assessment guidance.
    • Your score here isn't your score. Only the recruitment process decides what your evidence scores. We can't promise any application outcome.
    • We're independent. DocFolio isn't affiliated with or endorsed by NHS England, the royal colleges, Oriel or Passmedicine.
    • It isn't clinical guidance. Interview scenarios and model answers are for interview practice. Don't use them to make decisions about patient care; follow current national and local guidance.

    Your account

    • You must be 18 or over. Accounts are for individuals; please don't share yours.
    • Keep your sign-in details secure, and tell us straight away if you think someone else has used your account.
    • Give accurate details. You can update them in your profile.

    What you upload

    • You keep ownership of everything you add. You give us permission to store it, process it and show it back to you, and to share the parts you choose to share, such as League totals with friends. That permission lasts only as long as we need it to run DocFolio for you.
    • Only upload material you're entitled to share. Never upload anything that identifies a patient, or anything confidential you don't have permission to store.
    • Probity is your responsibility. What you claim in an application must be true and must meet the recruitment office's rules. DocFolio helps you organise evidence; it doesn't check whether a claim is valid.

    Using DocFolio fairly

    Please don't:

    • try to get into accounts or data that aren't yours, or test, probe or disrupt our systems;
    • scrape, copy or republish our content, question banks or data in bulk, or use them to build a competing product;
    • cheat in Leagues, for example by faking answers or tampering with the extension;
    • harass anyone, or upload anything unlawful, offensive or harmful;
    • use DocFolio in a way that breaks the law or your professional obligations.

    If you do, we may remove content or League points, suspend your account or close it. Where it's reasonable, we'll tell you why first.

    Our content

    The site, its design, text, question banks, guides and data belong to DocFolio or the people who license them to us. You may use them for your own preparation. Please don't sell, republish or redistribute them.

    Price and changes to the service

    • DocFolio is free to use at the moment. If we introduce paid features, we'll explain the price before you choose them. We'll never charge you without your agreement.
    • DocFolio is in active development. We may change, add or remove features. If we plan to close DocFolio, we'll give you reasonable notice so you can export your work.
    • We aim to keep the site available but can't promise it will always be uninterrupted or error-free. Keep your own copies of important documents.

    CoverTest

    CoverTest is offered on these terms too. You need your own Passmedicine subscription, and you must follow Passmedicine's terms. The extension never selects or submits answers for you.

    Our responsibility to you

    • Nothing in these terms limits our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud, or for anything else the law doesn't allow us to limit.
    • We provide DocFolio free of charge for your personal preparation. We're responsible for loss you suffer that was a foreseeable result of our breaking these terms or failing to use reasonable care and skill.
    • We're not responsible for loss that wasn't foreseeable, for business losses, or for decisions you make, such as which jobs to apply for or what to claim, based on our guidance without checking the official sources.
    • If you're a consumer, you have legal rights these terms don't affect.

    Ending your use

    You can stop using DocFolio at any time and ask us to delete your account by emailing hello@docfolio.co.uk. These terms stop applying when your account is deleted, apart from the parts that by their nature should continue, such as our responsibility to you.

    Changes to these terms

    We may update these terms as DocFolio changes. We'll update the date at the top and, for changes that matter, tell you by email or on the site before they take effect. If you don't agree, you can stop using DocFolio and ask us to delete your account.

    Law

    These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales. You can bring claims in the courts of England and Wales; if you live in Scotland or Northern Ireland, you can also bring them in your local courts.
