This privacy policy describes the personal information UnivClear collects about you through our website www.univclear.com (the “Site”), when providing our invisible teeth aligner products and associated services 9collectively, the “Services”) and through all other interactions we may have with you. It sets out how we collect, use and disclose that information, how we hold that information and your options for requesting access to your information or making a privacy complaint.
We may change this privacy policy from time to time. If we make changes, we will notify you by posting the updated policy on our site and revising the “last updated” date above. We encourage you to review the privacy policy whenever you use our site and services to stay informed about our information practices and about ways you can help protect your privacy.
This privacy policy does not cover the independent dental or other service providers we use to provide the services that will collect and handle personal and health information. Each provider has its own privacy policy. If you have questions about the privacy of the information collected by one of our independent service providers who provide service to you, please ask them for a copy of their privacy policy.
We understand that information about you and your health is personal. We support your privacy and are committed to ensuring our collection and handling of your personal information complies with all applicable legislation including the privacy act 1988 (Cth) (“privacy Act”), Australian Privacy Principles (“APPs”) and other relevant local laws and regulations.
The health information that we receive and/or create about you that identifies you personally and relates to your past, present, or future health, treatment, or payment for healthcare services, may be protected health information under the provisions of the privacy Act, health records legislation applicable in your state, and for customer records transferred overseas and maintained by us offshore, through the health insurance portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (“HIPAA”) and the health information technology for economic and clinical health Act (“HITECH Act”).
2.1 What is personal and health information?
Personal information means information or an option about identified individuals, or an individual who is reasonably identifiable:
We use the information that we collect for the following purposes:
With your consent to the privacy policy, we may share personal information about you as follows:
As the company is headquartered in the United States and the site is hosted in the United States, personal information that we collect about you may be transferred too and stored in the United States in accordance with this privacy policy.
We may also use third-party service providers to process and store personal information in the United States and other countries that will be similarly required to comply with the terms of privacy policy.
For any transfer of your information overseas, we take steps to ensure that the protection of your personal information is acknowledged and respected, however note that privacy and data protection regulations differ between jurisdictions and may not offer the same level of regulatory protection as available in Australia under the privacy Act and APPs. If you wish to discuss or require further information, please contact us using the contact details at the end of this policy.
Our services may contain links to other websites and those websites may not follow the same privacy practices as the company. We are not responsible for the privacy policies of such third parties to learn more about their privacy practices.
Certain sections or functionalities on our services may also permit you to share information on third party social media sites or platforms such as facebook, instagram, linkedin, twitter, google+, or other similar sites (collectively, “social media sites”). We do not own or control such social media sites, and posting your information on social media sites is subject to the third party’s privacy policy and other legal terms, which may not provide privacy protections with which you agree. We are not responsible for the consequences of your choosing to share your information on social media sites.
We take reasonable measures, including administrative, technical, and physical. Safeguards help to protect personal information from loss, theft, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration and destruction. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us or from our online products or services, and you do so at your own risk.
You may request to access, update or correct information that company holds about you at any time or by emailing us (support@univclear.com)
