- Device information
- Pages visited and time spent on the Site

- Cookies and similar tracking technologies (see Section 4)
We do not collect sensitive medical/health records through the Site itself. Any clinical or treatment-related information is collected only in person, over phone, or through secure channels outside this website, and is governed by our clinical record-keeping practices.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information collected for the following purposes:
- To respond to inquiries submitted through our contact form
- To schedule or discuss appointments

3. Legal Basis for Processing
Under the DPDP Act, 2023, we process your personal data based on:
- Your consent, given when you submit the contact form or otherwise voluntarily provide information
- Legitimate use, such as responding to a query you have initiated
You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time (see Section 9).
4. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
We use cookies and similar technologies to operate and improve our Site, including:
- Analytics cookies (e.g., Google Analytics) — to understand how visitors use our Site
- Advertising cookies (e.g., Google Ads, Meta/Facebook Pixel) — to deliver and measure the performance of ads, and to show you relevant ads on other platforms
These third-party tools may collect data about your browsing activity across websites. You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings. Note that disabling cookies may affect certain features of the Site.
Conversion Tracking: When you submit our contact form or take an action we treat as a lead (e.g., form submission, click-to-call, click-to-WhatsApp), we may share limited information about that action — such as your email address or phone number, typically in hashed/encrypted form — with advertising platforms like Google Ads and Meta (via tools such as Google Ads Conversion Tracking, Google Enhanced Conversions, or Meta Conversions API). This helps us measure ad performance and show relevant ads to people similar to our existing leads. This is separate from, and in addition to, standard analytics/advertising cookies.

5. Marketing Communications & Lead Follow-Up
If you submit your details through our contact form or any lead form on the Site, in addition to responding to your specific query, we may use your contact information to:
- Follow up with you about your inquiry via phone call, SMS, email, or WhatsApp
- Share relevant information about our services, offers, or appointment availability
- Add your details to our patient/lead management system (CRM) for ongoing follow-up
WhatsApp: Where we contact you via WhatsApp, your phone number and message content are processed through WhatsApp/Meta’s infrastructure, subject to Meta’s Privacy Policy.
Retention: Lead information is generally retained for the duration of our follow-up relationship with you, and for a reasonable period thereafter for record-keeping purposes, unless you request earlier deletion (see Section 9).
Opt-Out: You can ask to stop receiving marketing follow-up at any time by:
- Replying “STOP” or “UNSUBSCRIBE” to any SMS/WhatsApp message, or
- Emailing us at [Contact Email] with your request
Opting out of marketing communications does not affect our ability to respond to a specific query you’ve raised or contact you regarding an appointment you’ve already scheduled.
6. Sharing of Information

- Clinic staff involved in responding to your inquiry or scheduling your appointment
- Legal authorities, where required by law, court order, or government request
- Successors, in the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of clinic assets

Data submitted through our contact form is retained for as long as necessary to respond to your inquiry, follow up on it as a lead (see Section 5), and for legitimate record-keeping purposes, after which it is securely deleted or anonymized.
