Introduction to South Coast Radiology's Privacy Policy

South Coast Radiology (SCR) understands that personal privacy is important and will ensure that any personal information that may be collected through our website and email will only be used for the purposes detailed below.

Information Collected Through this Website

The SCR website has a counter that records the number of visitors or "hits" it receives. No cookies are sent by this site nor any details about your internet service provider, browser or sites that you came from. The only information obtained and kept by South Coast Radiology are emails sent either through "contacts" on the website or email sent to any addressee in the scr.com.au domain.

The Use of Information Collected

Other than emails, no information is received by SCR from its web site. Emails will only be used for their original intended purpose and not for any marketing activity, nor passed to any other agency without your consent, unless required by law.
Other information collected by SCR in the course of performing clinical examinations is only used for its primary purpose, and no information is collected that is not directly relevant to the investigations being performed. This data will not be used for marketing, except as de-identified, aggregated statistics. This information is not released to any agency outside SCR, unless required by law.

Security of Information

In the interests of your privacy, and given the inherent insecurity of information passed over the Internet, we do not recommend the transmission of personal health information to or from our patients over the internet. If you send any personal health information to us via the Internet, we cannot guarantee its security.
Clinical information transmitted from SCR to referring doctors is encrypted to ensure the safe transmission of information, and that information can only be decrypted and accessed by the authorised recipient.
SCR has taken steps to protect personal information stored at all its sites. If at any time you believe personal information you have supplied has become compromised please inform SCR immediately.

Changes to This Policy

SCR reserves the right to amend this policy from time to time and post the new policy on this website.
