We work every day to provide pre- and postnatal care our guests can trust, and to ensure they receive good care. We regard the proper protection and management of guests' personal information as a matter of great importance, and have therefore adopted the following privacy policy, which we are committed to upholding.
1. Collection of Personal Information
We collect personal information only so far as it relates to the provision of pre- and postnatal care. Where we wish to use it for any other purpose, we notify you of that purpose in advance and obtain your consent. The same applies where personal information is required on our website.
2. Purpose and Scope of Use
- In addition to providing pre- and postnatal care services, we may use personal information for liaison with municipal prenatal and postnatal care departments, for education and training, to comply with administrative orders, and to work with other medical, health, nursing, welfare and childcare support institutions.
- We may report cases in research, at academic conferences or in publications, with sufficient anonymisation.
- For training purposes, students of the medical professions and professionals from other institutions may access guest information or be present during care.
We do not use personal information beyond its original purpose, except:
- where the guest has consented; or
- where the information has been processed so that no individual can be identified.
3. Provision and Disclosure of Care Information
Except where required by law, we do not provide information to third parties without the guest's permission. If you wish to view or copy your own care records, please ask a member of staff. Please note that we may charge the actual cost of disclosure or copying.
4. Proper Management of Personal Information
We keep guests' personal information accurate and up to date, and work to prevent leakage, loss, destruction, alteration and unauthorised access.
5. Checking and Correction of Personal Information
Where a guest requests disclosure, we check the content without delay and respond in accordance with our guidelines on the provision of guest information. Where correction is requested on the grounds that the content is inaccurate, we investigate and respond appropriately.
