At Cardio Care (bestcardiologists.in/), we are deeply committed to protecting the privacy and security of our users. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, store, and protect personal data in compliance with applicable privacy laws. Our goal is to ensure transparency and foster trust, so users can confidently access the resources and services provided by our platform.
We collect personal information from users to facilitate the appointment booking process and enhance communication between users and healthcare providers. The types of personal data we may collect include:
Name: To identify users during the appointment booking process and for communication purposes.
Phone Number: For appointment confirmations, reminders, and to enable communication between users and healthcare providers.
Email Address: Optional, but it may be collected for follow-up communications, reminders, or for sending relevant updates regarding appointments or medical content.
Queries and Health-Related Information: When users submit queries or health-related questions, this information may also be collected to help connect users with the most appropriate healthcare provider or specialist.
The personal data collected is used solely for the purpose of facilitating communication with healthcare providers and ensuring a smooth appointment booking process. We do not collect or process sensitive personal data beyond what is necessary for these purposes.
We take user privacy seriously and ensure that personal data is shared only with those necessary for providing the requested services. The user’s information will only be shared with the healthcare provider or medical institution chosen during the booking process. This allows for efficient communication between the user and their selected cardiologist or healthcare facility to schedule and confirm appointments.
It is important to note that Cardio Care does not sell, rent, or share user data with third parties for marketing purposes. We do not engage in data trading or share your personal information with external companies for advertising, promotional, or unrelated business purposes. Our platform is designed with user privacy at the forefront, and we ensure that the data you provide is used exclusively for the services we offer.
If there are any changes to our data-sharing practices in the future, we will update this Privacy Policy to reflect those changes and notify users accordingly.
The security of your personal information is of utmost importance to us. To protect user data, we implement industry-standard encryption methods, secure storage protocols, and other safeguards to ensure that your data remains confidential and protected from unauthorized access. These security measures include:
Encryption: All personal data transmitted between users and the platform is encrypted using secure protocols (e.g., SSL/TLS) to prevent interception.
Access Controls: Only authorized personnel within Cardio Care and healthcare providers involved in the appointment process have access to the personal data provided by users.
Regular Security Audits: We regularly review and update our security practices to ensure that our systems remain secure against emerging threats and vulnerabilities.
While we take all reasonable precautions to protect your personal data, no system can guarantee 100% security, particularly in online environments. We strongly encourage users to take steps to protect their own data, such as using strong passwords, logging out after sessions, and being cautious when sharing sensitive information online.
In accordance with privacy regulations, users have the following rights concerning their personal data:
Right to Access: Users can request access to the personal data we have collected about them, including the ability to review, update, or verify the accuracy of the information.
Right to Update: Users can request to update or correct any inaccurate or outdated information by submitting a request through the contact information provided on the website.
Right to Delete: Users can request the deletion of their personal data. Requests for deletion will be reviewed and processed in accordance with applicable legal and regulatory requirements.
To exercise these rights or to inquire about how your data is being used, please contact us using the contact details provided on the platform. We are committed to complying with applicable privacy laws and regulations and will respond to user requests promptly.
Cardio Care is fully committed to complying with privacy regulations, including but not limited to the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and other local data protection laws that may apply to users. Our Privacy Policy and practices are regularly reviewed to ensure compliance with these regulations, which govern the collection, processing, and protection of personal data.
We also ensure that our healthcare partners and third-party providers, with whom we share user data as part of the appointment process, also adhere to stringent data privacy and security standards. This helps protect the privacy of our users and ensures that their personal data is treated with the highest level of confidentiality.
We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in our practices or to comply with new regulations. Any changes to this policy will be posted on the website, and users will be notified accordingly if any significant changes occur. We recommend reviewing this policy periodically to stay informed about how we are protecting your personal data.
