Privacy Policy for the Management of Personal Information

As a health service provider, we are bound by the legal requirements of the Australian Privacy Principles set out in the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth).

 

If you do not wish for your personal information to be collected in a way anticipated by this Privacy Policy, we may not be in a position to provide our services to you. In some circumstances, you may request to be anonymous or to use a pseudonym, unless it is impracticable for us to deal with you, or if we are required or authorised by law to deal with identified individuals.

Personal Information We Collect

The types of personal information we collect may include:

  • Name, date of birth, address(es), contact numbers, email address and other contact details; and/or
  • Financial payment details (such as your credit card number); and/or
  • Transaction data (including details about payments to and from you and other details of products you have purchased from us); and/or
  • Technical data (including your internet protocol (IP) address, your login data, browser type and version, time zone setting and location, browser plug-in types and versions, operating system and platform, and other technology on the devices you use to access our website); and/or

We may collect the above types of personal information from people including website visitors, email subscribers, social media fans, employment applicants, potential clients and service providers.

Sensitive Information

We may also collect the following sensitive information:

  • Health information, including medical and skincare history, medications, allergies, adverse events, immunisations, social history and family history; and/or
  • Details of other health service providers involved in your care and copies of any referral letters and/or medical reports and test results; and/or
  • Information or opinion about a person’s health and expressed wishes about future care.

 

We usually will only collect sensitive information from clients we are providing services to, or potential clients who have requested our services or other assistance.

How We Collect Personal Information

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 our clients directly.

 

We may collect personal information in a number of ways:

  • When someone visits our website; and/or
  • When someone makes an enquiry with us (for example, by telephone or email); and/or
  • When someone completes a consult form; and/or
  • When someone purchases a product or service from us; and/or
  • When someone signs up to a marketing subscription; and/or
  • When someone contacts us via email, our website or via social media such as Facebook or Instagram; and/or
  • When someone participates in one of our services, such as our online course.

 

We collect sensitive information in more limited circumstances, such as:

  • When someone makes an enquiry with us and the sensitive information is disclosed to us to facilitate referral to an appropriate service provider; and/or
  • When someone participates in one of our programs or services and the sensitive information is disclosed to us to facilitate the delivery of the program or service.

 

We limit the circumstances in which we collect personal and sensitive information indirectly. This may be when:

  • We need to obtain personal and/or sensitive information from an individual’s responsible person (such as their parent or guardian) due to incapacity (such as being a minor); and/or
  • Where a person has authorized us to collect information from other health service providers they have disclosed information to (for example, information provided via referral or medical reports).

How We Hold and Protect Personal Information

We store all personal information we collect electronically, including on or within:

  • Storage devices within our computers and telephone equipment
  • Dedicated information storage software, such as client relationship management (CRM) software
  • Third party secure storage services, such as GoogleDrive
  • The backend of our website
  • The backend of our social media accounts, such as Facebook and Instagram

Security

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:

  • our website contains pages encrypted with SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) to ensure the safety of any data that is submitted through use of this website
  • we limit access to personal information to a “need-to-know” basis
  • the backend of our website and social media accounts is password protected
  • we protect devices we use to collect, hold, use and disclose personal information with industry-standard anti-virus software
  • our devices are protected by passwords and are stored in secure premises
  • data is securely stored on cloud servers
  • all conversations involving the discussion of personal information take place in private, where conversations are unable to be overheard by unauthorised personnel
  • if we no longer need personal information, we take reasonable steps to delete or de-identify the information

 

We take extra precautions to protect sensitive information, including by ensuring that all sensitive information is held in secure storage systems protected by passwords.

 

If a data breach occurs involving personal information and the breach is likely to cause harm, we will notify the individual as soon as possible after the occurrence in accordance with our obligations under the Privacy Act and related legislation.

Why We Collect, Hold, Use and Disclose personal information

We collect, hold, use and disclose client’s personal information as is reasonably necessary for us to provide our services, including for the following purposes:

  • to contact and communicate with clients and potential clients; and/or
  • for the purpose of providing skincare education, products and services to clients, which include online courses; and/or
  • to access, update and transfer of electronic client records; and/or
  • to conduct activities relating to research, quality assurance and improvement processes, accreditation, audits, risk and claims management, client satisfaction surveys and staff education and training; and/or
  • when required for administrative and internal record keeping for a minimum of 7 years after our last contact (or if the client is under 18, until they turn 25); and/or
  • for statistical purposes; and/or
  • as required by law.

 

We only collect, hold, use and disclose sensitive information where it is necessary in order for us to provide a service who have been engaged to perform, and not for any unrelated purposes (for example, for research or marketing) unless we have received the person’s prior informed consent.

 

We do not disclose personal information to overseas recipients.

 

We never sell or rent personal or sensitive information we collect.

Requests to Access, Correct or Delete Information

You can request details of personal information that we hold about you in certain circumstances set out in the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) (the Act). We may refuse to provide you with information that we hold in certain circumstances set out in the Act. Otherwise, we will provide access to the information if it is reasonable and practicable to do so. In most cases we will 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 at hello@baregeneration.com.au.  

 

We will endeavour to promptly correct any information found to be inaccurate, incomplete, or out of date and to notify 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, please contact us at hello@baregeneration.com.au.  

 

Please note that if we agree to delete information, because of backups and records of deletions, it may be impossible to completely delete the information without retaining some residual information.

 

We will respond to any request to access, correct or delete information within a reasonable time.
