Clause 2: Collection of Your Personal Data

We aim to provide information and services that meet your individual needs and expectations. We are therefore required to collect certain personal details when you register as a patient or member, or when entering into an agreement or transaction with us. The personal data we collect may include:


1.
Full name
2. National identification number
3. Date of birth
4. Gender
5. Address and telephone number
6. Email address
7. Topics or content of interest

1.Credit card details
2.Bank account number

This also includes any other personal details strictly necessary for these purposes. All information provided must be accurate, complete, up to date, and not misleading. Collecting this data allows us to understand your requirements, tailor our services to distinguish your care from that of other patients, and ensure that the more information you provide, the better we can personalise our dental care to suit your needs.

Beyond initial registration, we may request additional personal details from you, such as when you participate in events, promotions, or activities organised by us or our business partners. You may be asked to provide further information, such as your preferred treatments or products, interests, and habits. Providing this supplementary information enables you to access a wider range of services and products, ensuring you do not miss out on exclusive benefits reserved for our registered patients.

 

Linking Personal Data with Social Media Tools

If you choose to use your social media account to register for our website, applications, or services, the clinic may access personal information that you have voluntarily provided to your social media account via that specific service provider, subject to their terms and privacy policies. The clinic will store and handle your personal data in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

The clinic will only collect your personal information with your explicit consent. Should you choose not to consent to the collection of your data, you may submit a request to withdraw your consent at any time. However, doing so may prevent us from providing certain services or tailoring your experience to your needs. This may also result in missing out on exclusive benefits, promotions, or specialized services provided by the clinic or our partners.

Clause 3: Purposes of Processing and Disclosure of Personal Data

The primary purpose of collecting your personal data is to ensure that each patient receives efficient, high-quality products and services from our clinic. By using our services, you agree and consent that the clinic may use your personal data to contact you or share all or part of your personal data with our affiliated entities or business partners via electronic marketing channels to maximise your benefits, without requiring prior notice.

Your personal data will be collected, stored, and retained appropriately. The clinic may utilise your personal data or disclose it to third parties, including related entities and business partners, for your benefit and for specific operational purposes, as outlined below:

  1. To support the delivery of services, advertisements, products, privileges, and marketing activities tailored to your needs through the personal channels you have consented to provide to the practice.
  2. To conduct research and analyse user experience across our website, applications, and social media platforms, ensuring a seamless experience tailored to your usage behaviour.

  5. To arrange and manage product deliveries made via the platform, whether handled directly by the company, third-party logistics providers, or affiliated partners.
  6. To contact users for customer service, care, and support, or to deliver authorised marketing communications via the channels you have consented to provide.
  7. To comply with applicable legal obligations and statutory requirements.
  8. To protect the property rights, safety, and security of the company, its personnel, or other platform users.

The company may engage third-party service providers to assist in delivering its services. This may include storing or processing data within cloud-based systems located overseas. In such cases, these service providers have no independent authority to use personal data processed on the company’s behalf and are strictly bound by the provisions of this privacy policy.

This privacy policy does not cover the collection and use of personal data conducted independently by third parties. This applies to advertisers, service providers, or vendors on other websites linked to the company’s website, applications, social media platforms, or future communication channels, as well as the integration of social media features used to share content across our channels. Should any unlawful actions take place that cause damage to the company, the company accepts no liability for any losses or damages arising from the actions or data collection practices of these third parties.
