We are committed to safeguarding the privacy of our website visitors; this policy sets out how we will treat your personal information.

 (1)       What information do we collect?

Before, or at the time of collecting personal information, we will identify the purposes of collection.

Information will be collected solely to fulfil these purposes, or for related, compatible objectives.

We may collect, store and use the following kinds of personal data:

(a)        information about your visits to and use of this website; and

(b)        information that you provide to us for the purpose of making an enquiry.

Every effort will be made to ensure data remains relevant, is accurate, is complete and is up to date.

(2)        Information about website visits

We may collect information about your computer and your visits to this website such as your IP address, geographical location, browser type, referral source, length of visit and number of page views. We may use this information in the administration of this website, to improve the website’s usability, and for marketing purposes.

We use cookies on this website. A cookie is a text file sent by a web server to a web browser, and stored by the browser. The text file is then sent back to the server each time the browser requests a page from the server. This enables the web server to identify and track the web browser.

We may send a cookie which may be stored on by your browser on your computer’s hard drive. We may use the information we obtain from the cookie in the administration of this website, to improve the website’s usability and for marketing purposes.  We may also use that information to recognise your computer when you visit our website, and to personalise our website for you.

Most browsers allow you to refuse to accept cookies.  (For example, in Internet Explorer you can refuse all cookie by clicking “Tools”, “Internet Options”, “Privacy”, and selecting “Block all cookies” using the sliding selector.)  This will, however, have a negative impact upon the usability of many websites.

(3)        Using your personal data

Personal data submitted on this website will be used for the purposes specified in this privacy policy or in relevant parts of the website.

We will only retain personal information as long as necessary, for the fulfilment of these purposes.

Information will never be shared for any commercial reasons, solely to facilitate medical objectives.

In addition to the uses identified elsewhere in this privacy policy, we may use your personal information to:

(a)        improve your browsing experience by personalising the website.

(4)        Other disclosures

In addition to the disclosures reasonably necessary for the purposes identified elsewhere in this privacy policy, we may disclose information about you:

(a)        to the extent that we are required to do so by law;

(b)        in connection with any legal proceedings or prospective legal proceedings; and

(c)        in order to establish, exercise or defend our legal rights (including providing information to others for the purposes of fraud prevention and reducing credit risk).

Except as provided in this privacy policy, we will not provide your information to third parties.

(5)        Security of your personal data

We will take reasonable precautions to prevent the loss, misuse or alteration of your personal information.  In order to prevent unauthorised access or disclosure we have put in place suitable physical, electronic and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online.

(6)        Policy amendments

We may update this privacy policy from time-to-time by posting a new version on our website. You should check this page occasionally to ensure you are happy with any changes. 

(7)        Third party websites

The website may contain links to other websites. We are not responsible for the privacy policies of third party websites.
