- Name
- Phone number
- Email address
- Health issue
- Information voluntarily entered in the enquiry form
Please provide only information that is reasonably necessary for your enquiry.
Submitting an enquiry through the website does not by itself establish a doctor-patient relationship or guarantee an appointment. An appointment may need to be separately confirmed by the Clinic.
4. Why We Collect and Use Your Information
We may process personal information for purposes including:

- Responding to your enquiry
- Scheduling or managing appointments

- Compliance with applicable legal or regulatory requirements
Service Communications
We may contact you through:
- Telephone
- SMS
for purposes such as appointment confirmations, appointment reminders, responding to enquiries or treatment-related follow-up.
Providing your mobile number does not automatically mean that you consent to unrelated promotional marketing.
5. Consent
Where consent is the appropriate basis for processing your personal information, we seek to ensure that consent is:
- freely given;
- informed;
- specific to the intended purpose; and
- provided through a clear affirmative action.
We will not intentionally ask for personal or health information that is unnecessary for the stated purpose.
Where legally applicable, you may withdraw consent for future processing by contacting the Clinic.
Withdrawal of consent will not invalidate processing that lawfully occurred before the withdrawal.
In certain circumstances, information may still need to be retained or processed where required or permitted by applicable law, professional obligations, legal claims or other lawful requirements.
6. WhatsApp, Telephone and Other Communications
Our website may allow you to contact the Clinic through WhatsApp or telephone.
If you communicate with us using WhatsApp, your communication is also processed through WhatsApp/Meta’s systems and is subject to the privacy practices and terms of those services.
Information that you send to us through WhatsApp may include:
- Name
- Phone number
- Messages
- Health questions
- Medical documents
- Reports
- Images or attachments
Please avoid sending unnecessary highly confidential information through WhatsApp or other messaging platforms.
Where possible, only send information that is reasonably required for your consultation or enquiry.
The Clinic cannot control how information is processed by a third-party communication platform once you choose to use that platform.
7. Children’s and Minors’ Information
Healthcare services may sometimes be requested for a person below 18 years of age.
Where required by applicable law, information concerning a child should be provided by or with the involvement or consent of a parent or lawful guardian.
We aim to collect information concerning minors only to the extent reasonably necessary for providing healthcare or responding to the relevant medical enquiry.
We do not knowingly use children’s health information for behavioural advertising or unrelated promotional profiling.
8. Cookies and Website Technical Information
When you access our website, certain technical information may be processed automatically, such as:
- IP address
- Browser type
- Device type
- Operating system
- Pages visited
- Date and time of access
- Referring website
- Website interaction information
- Basic server and security logs
The website may use cookies or similar technologies for:
- Essential website functionality
- Website security
- Remembering preferences
- Performance measurement
- Understanding website usage
Where non-essential analytics, advertising or tracking cookies are introduced, appropriate notice or consent mechanisms may be provided where required by applicable law.
Users should be given the ability to manage non-essential cookies where required.
9. Analytics and Third-Party Services
We may use third-party service providers to operate or support our website and communications.
These may include services relating to:
- Website hosting
- Website security
- Email delivery
- Website forms
- Analytics
- Backups
- Appointment communication
- WhatsApp or other messaging services
- Technical maintenance
Such providers may process limited information only where reasonably necessary to provide their services to us.
We do not authorise service providers to use patient medical information for their own unrelated marketing purposes.
Where third-party services have their own privacy policies, use of those services may also be governed by their respective policies.
10. Sharing and Disclosure of Personal Information
We do not sell or rent patient personal information or medical information to third parties for their independent marketing purposes.
Personal information may be shared only where reasonably necessary, including with:
Service Providers
Trusted vendors or service providers assisting with:
- Website hosting
- IT support
- Data storage
- Website security
- Communication systems
- Appointment management
- Professional services
Healthcare Purposes
Where appropriate and authorised, information may be shared with another healthcare professional, laboratory, diagnostic service or healthcare provider where reasonably necessary for care, referral or treatment.
Legal Requirements
We may disclose information where disclosure is:
- required by applicable law;
- required pursuant to a valid legal process;
- requested by an authorised regulatory or governmental authority;
- necessary for establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims; or
- necessary to protect the safety or legal rights of the Clinic, patient or another person.
We do not publicly disclose a patient’s medical information without lawful authority or appropriate permission.
11. Marketing Communications
Appointment reminders, consultation-related communication and treatment follow-ups are different from promotional marketing.
Where promotional messages are sent, we aim to use personal information only where we have an appropriate lawful basis or consent.
Health information will not be used to create targeted advertising profiles or sold to advertisers.
You may request that promotional communication be stopped by contacting us.
Stopping promotional communication will not necessarily stop essential appointment or treatment-related communication.
12. Patient Photographs, Reviews and Testimonials
A patient’s photograph, medical report, treatment story, identifiable testimonial, before/after image or other identifiable medical information should not be published for promotional purposes without appropriate permission.
Where testimonials or reviews are voluntarily submitted or publicly posted by a patient, their use will remain subject to applicable law and professional/ethical requirements.
Patients should never feel that providing a testimonial is required to receive treatment.
13. Data Retention
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for purposes such as:
- Providing healthcare
- Treatment and follow-up
- Maintaining appropriate medical or clinic records
- Appointment administration
- Accounting or payment records
- Resolving complaints or disputes
- Establishing or defending legal claims
- Complying with applicable laws or professional requirements
- Security and fraud prevention
When information is no longer reasonably required, we may securely delete, anonymise or otherwise dispose of it, subject to applicable legal and professional record-retention requirements.
A request for deletion may therefore not always result in immediate deletion of every medical or statutory record where continued retention is legally required.
14. Information Security
We take reasonable administrative, technical and organisational precautions designed to protect information against:
- Unauthorised access
- Loss
- Misuse
- Unauthorised alteration
- Unauthorised disclosure
- Accidental destruction
Depending on the systems being used, safeguards may include:
- Secure website connections
- Restricted access
- Password protection
- Device and account security
- Access controls
- Security monitoring
- Backups
- Encryption or other appropriate protective technologies
- Limiting access to people who reasonably require the information
However, no website, email system, cloud service, mobile device or internet transmission can be guaranteed to be 100% secure.
Users should therefore avoid sending unnecessary medical information through unsecured communication channels.

Subject to applicable law and reasonable identity verification, you may request to:
Access
Ask what personal information the Clinic processes about you.
Correct or Update
Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information.
