 MLABS is committed to safeguarding personal privacy. It recognizes that individuals have a right to control how their personal information is collected and used.

Collecting Personal Information

We collect personal information primarily to enable us to provide clients with our services. MLABS may also use the information for marketing to you or for any other purpose permitted under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth).

You don't need to identify yourself when you deal with us (e.g. to find out more about treatments or products) however in certain situations we will only deal with individuals who have identified themselves to us.

When a treatment or product is purchased personal information will be requested in order to provide the requested treatment or product, provide updated information, and advise of other MLABS treatments and products, which may be of interest. You are not obligated to provide personal information however failure to do so may result in MLABS being unable to provide services or products to you.

Personal information is collected directly from clients or potential future clients when they personally complete and submit a client card and consent form to become a client of MLABS. This can be done in person at our clinic.

Collecting Sensitive Information

For the purposes of this Privacy Policy, sensitive information means the information a client has disclosed to us about their physical and mental health and well-being.

Sensitive information will only ever be used for providing services to clients. Such information will not be used or disclosed for any other purposes without consent, except in cases when disclosure may be required by law or is necessary to protect the rights or property of MLABS, or any member of the public, or to lessen a serious threat to a person's health or safety. For the purposes of this Privacy Policy, sensitive information is a subset of personal information.
