When you close your browser the session cookie is destroyed and no personal information is kept which might identify you to the practice in the future.

Uses:

Your personal information is only used for the purposes for which you give it to the practice and for related, internal management purposes. While the practice does have a mailing list, your data will not be collected for the purpose of a mailing list without asking for your consent.

The practice does not give information about you to other government agencies, organisations or anyone else unless one of the following applies:

  • you have consented
  • you’d expect it or have been told it will
  • it is required or authorised by law
  • it will prevent or lessen a serious and imminent threat to somebody’s life or health or the disclosure is reasonably necessary for law enforcement or for the protection of public revenue.

The practice analyses non-identifiable website traffic data to improve services.

Your choices:

You may access personal information that the practice holds about you or you can ask for personal information held about you to be corrected.

The practice abides by the Information Privacy Principles of the Privacy Act 1988. This website follows the Privacy Commissioner’s Guidelines for Federal and ACT Government Websites.
