We are bound by the National Privacy Principles in the Privacy Act 1988 in relation to the handling of personal information.

Personal Information
We may collect information when we provide our services to you. Generally we will tell you why we are collecting information when we collect it and how we plan to use it or these things will be obvious when we collect the information.

Under no circumstances will The Life Clinic sell or receive payment for licensing or disclosing your personal information.

We may preserve the content of any e-mail or other communication you send us. Your e-mail message content may be monitored by us for trouble-shooting or maintenance purposes or if any form of e-mail abuse is suspected.

If you request us not to use personal information in a particular manner or at all, we will adopt all reasonable measures to observe your request.

Use of Information
When you are online, we collect information regarding the pages within our network which you visit and what you click on. As a general rule we do not collect sensitive information. However, if we do, it will usually be for the purposes of providing our goods or services and if the law requires us to, we will seek your consent to collect it.

We use your information to improve our services to you, optimise our goods and services including our Web pages for your computer (e.g., the identity of your Internet browser, the type of operating system you use, your IP address and the domain name of your Internet service provider). We may use such non-personal information for internal purposes, including but not limited to improving the content of our sites.

Security
The Life Clinic strives to ensure the security, integrity and privacy of personally identifiable information of our customers. We use a variety of physical and electronic security measures including restricting physical access to our offices and firewalls and secure databases to keep personal information secure from misuse, loss or unauthorised use or disclosure.   Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be totally secure.

Access to Personal Information
You have a right to access most personal information we hold about you and if we deny access in some circumstances we will tell you why.   To request access, please contact us.

They allow us to track usage patterns and to compile data that can help us improve our content and target advertising. If you do not want information collected through the use of Cookies, there is a simple procedure in most browsers that allows you to deny or accept the Cookie feature.
