1. We respect your privacy
We have a simple approach to data protection and privacy which adheres to the 13 Australian Privacy Principles.
Our obligations under the Privacy Act 1988 (Privacy Act):
- This privacy policy sets out how we comply with our obligations under the Privacy Act. As an Australian based organisation, we are bound by the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) in the Privacy Act which regulate how organisations may collect, use, disclose and store personal information, and how individuals may access and correct personal information held about them.
- In this privacy policy, ‘personal information’ has the same meaning as defined by section 6 of the Privacy Act: information or an opinion (including information or an opinion forming part of a database), whether true or not, and whether recorded in a material form or not, about an individual whose identity is apparent, or can reasonably be ascertained, from the information or opinion.
2. Collection of personal information
Clean Kweens will receive and store personal information you enter onto our website, enter into Halaxy when booking an appointment or provide directly to us during your consultation.

When booking an appointment via Halaxy or through the website, we collect the following information:
Name
Gender
Date of birth
Contact information (including email, phone number, address)

When engaging in a consultation with one of our Dietitians, whether via Telehealth or face-to-face, we will also be collecting personal information about your diet, health and lifestyle choices. This enables us to conduct an in-depth nutrition assessment and provide appropriate education and advice that is individualised and will help you achieve your goals. We may also collect any other information you provide while interacting with us, whether it by via appointment, phone, email, social media, our website or other means.

Internal record keeping, documentation and auditing purposes

Your personal information may be used to correspond with other health professionals involved in your care, including doctors, specialists, psychologists or other health professionals. This assists in ensuring a holistic team approach to your healthcare and may be necessary to keep other health care professionals up to date with your progress or health status.
We may disclose your personal information to any of our employees, insurers, professional advisers or suppliers as reasonably necessary for the purposes set out in this Policy. Personal information is only supplied to a third party when required for the best practice of our service.
We will not sell, distribute or lease your personal information to third parties unless we have your permission or are required by law to do so.
4. Security of personal information
Your personal information is stored in a manner that protects it from misuse and loss and from unauthorised access, modification or disclosure. Suitable physical, electronic and managerial procedures have been put in place to ensure this security.
Where your personal information is no longer needed for the purpose for which it was obtained, we will take reasonable steps to destroy or de-identify it. However, most personal information is or will be stored in our client files for a minimum of 7 years.
5. Access to your personal information

We reserve the right to refuse to provide you with information that we hold about you in certain circumstances set out in the Privacy Act.
You may request to decline correspondence with anyone in your healthcare team, such as a doctor or allied health professional, at anytime. However, please note that as health professionals we have a duty of care to report any life threatening risks to your doctor, regardless of your consent.
