About this policy
VerityMed is committed to protecting the privacy of individuals whose personal information we handle in the course of our business. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose and manage personal information in accordance with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles.
What information we collect
We may collect personal information including names, contact details, professional information and the content of enquiries submitted through our website or by email. In the course of coordinating medico-legal referrals, we may also handle sensitive health information about claimants and subject persons, in accordance with applicable privacy laws and the instructions of the referring party.
How we use personal information
We use personal information to respond to enquiries, coordinate medico-legal referrals, communicate with referrers and specialists, and manage our business operations. We do not use personal information for marketing purposes without consent.
Disclosure of personal information
We may disclose personal information to independent specialists on our panel, to referrers and their representatives, and to third parties as required by law or with the consent of the individual. We do not sell personal information to third parties.
Security
We take reasonable steps to protect personal information from misuse, interference, loss, and unauthorised access, modification or disclosure. Sensitive documents are transferred through secure channels, not through general website forms or email.
