Method of collection

Personal information will generally be collected directly from you through the use of any of our standard forms, over the internet, via email, or through a telephone conversation with you.

We will usually notify you about these instances in advance, or where that is not possible, as soon as reasonably practicable after the information has been collected.

This information will be limited to professional information about healthcare professionals and their practices. The information is used for commercial purposes and the Customer Database Provider makes that information available to all parties who also have access to its database.
