This document describes the Privacy Policy of Criniti Medical Practice Pty Ltd (ABN 41 651 316 095) (“Criniti Medical”, “we”, “us”). We commit to protect the privacy of personal information we collect about you, including through our website, located at www.crinitimedical.com.au, as well as through the provision of medical services or directly from you.
The medical services provided are bound by the legal requirements of the Australian Privacy Principles set out in the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth).
The types of personal information we collect may include:
We are committed to using lawful and fair means to collect personal information and collecting it from others only when it is unreasonable or impracticable to obtain certain information from you directly.
A patient’s personal information is collected in a number of ways:
We will destroy or de-identify information where we form the opinion that the information has been provided to us unlawfully or unfairly.
We collect, hold, use and disclose your personal information as is reasonably necessary for us to provide our medical services, including for the following purposes:
Your personal information will not be disclosed to international recipients, unless you consent or such disclosure is otherwise required by law. Patient information will not be used, sold, rented or disclosed for any other purpose.
As you probably know, a cookie is a small text file that’s placed on your computer to help us remember your preferences, like your login information or location. Cookies are used for a variety of reasons. We use cookies to make it easier and faster for you to use our website. We also use cookies for security purposes to protect you online. We and our third-party vendors may also use cookies to display advertisements to you elsewhere on the internet.
To help you find more information, we sometimes include links to other helpful websites from our website. Please note that this Privacy Policy only applies to information that we collect on our website (not any other site). As we aren’t responsible for data collection on those other sites, our Privacy Policy won’t apply. We can’t guarantee any of the privacy practices of other websites, so please be safe and make sure you read their privacy policy before giving them your personal information.
Access: Patients can request details of personal information that we hold about them in certain circumstances set out in the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) (the Act). We may refuse to provide you with information that we hold about you in certain circumstances set out in the Act. Otherwise, we will provide access to the information if it’s reasonable and practicable to do so. In most cases we’ll do this free of charge, but if your request requires significant effort or expense on our part, we might ask for compensation for that.
Correction: If you believe that any information we hold about you is inaccurate, out of date, incomplete, irrelevant or misleading, please contact us using the details set out below. We rely in part on you advising us when your personal information changes. We will endeavour to promptly correct any information found to be inaccurate, incomplete or out of date and to notify you of the correction, unless it is impracticable or unlawful to do so.
Deletion: If you want us to delete personal information we hold about you or to not collect information from you for a specific purpose, such as targeted advertising, please contact us using the details set out below. Please note that if we agree to delete your information, because of backups and records of deletions, it may be impossible to completely delete your information without retaining some residual information.
We will respond to any request to access, correct or delete information within a reasonable time.
We are committed to ensuring that the personal information we hold is secure and protected from misuse, interference, loss and unauthorised access, modification or disclosure. We undertake the following precautions to protect personal information we hold:
If a data breach occurs involving your personal information and the breach is likely to cause harm to you, we will notify you as soon as possible after the occurrence in accordance with our obligations under the Privacy Act and related legislation.
If you believe that we have breached this Privacy Policy and want to make a complaint about that breach, please contact us using the details set out below. If you are unsatisfied with our response, the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner may be able to assist you with a review of our decision. Contact the OAIC for more information.
