Use of information:

We utilize a combination of identifying and non-identifying information to understand our visitors, improve services, and enhance user experience. Specifics of individual information are not publicly disclosed; instead, we share aggregated and anonymized data in reports.

Data processing and storage:

Personal information is retained only as long as necessary for service provision or improvement. We employ commercially acceptable means to protect data from loss, theft, and unauthorized access. While we strive for data security, no electronic method is entirely foolproof.

Cookies are small pieces of data stored on your computer, enabling us to understand your site usage and serve content based on your preferences.

Our website does not knowingly collect personal information from children. Parents/guardians, please contact us if you believe your child is involved in an activity requiring personal information, and you have not received proper notification or consent requests.

This privacy policy pertains to data collected and handled by 247 Medical & Dental Centre. While we collaborate with partners and affiliates, we are not liable for their privacy practices.
