Privacy policy for the use of Google +1

The Google +1 button lets you share information publicly. Through the Google +1 button, you and other users receive personalized content from Google and its partners. Google stores both the information that you +1'd a piece of content and information about the page you were viewing when you clicked +1.

Google records information about your +1 activity to improve Google services for you and others.
To use the Google +1 button, you need a globally visible, public Google profile that includes at least the name you chose for the profile. This name will be used across all Google services.

In addition to the uses described above, the information you provide will be used in accordance with Google's applicable privacy policy (http://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy/). Google may publish aggregated statistics about users' +1 activities or share these statistics with our users and partners, such as publishers, advertisers, or affiliated websites.

Video surveillance

For your safety and the protection of our practice, we would like to inform you that certain areas of our practice are under video surveillance. The data is recorded without sound and deleted after 72 hours at the latest, unless there is suspicion of a criminal offense.

 

Why is surveillance taking place?

The video cameras are used exclusively for the following purposes:

  • Exercise of the right of domicile: protection against unauthorized access.

  • Prevention and education: Protection of property and prevention of vandalism and theft.

  • Safety: Increased safety for patients and staff.

 

Important information regarding data protection:

  • No surveillance in intimate areas: Treatment rooms, changing rooms or sanitary facilities are of course not video-monitored.

  • Storage period: The recordings are automatically deleted after a maximum of 48 to 72 hours (depending on legal requirements), unless they are needed for evidentiary purposes.

  • Your rights: You have the right to information about the stored video data concerning you and to its deletion, provided there are no legal reasons against it.

The practice management is responsible for data processing. If you have any questions regarding data protection, please contact our reception team.

 

Audio recording of the consultations

  • Purpose of the recording: The conversation between you and your therapist will be recorded to enable precise documentation and analysis of the treatment.

  • Automatic deletion: The recording is not permanently stored. It will be automatically and irrevocably deleted after exactly 7 days.

  • Data protection: Storage is carried out in accordance with strict data protection regulations to protect your privacy. Only authorized persons have access to the data during this short period.

 

Patient consent form

1. Data Exchange and Release from Confidentiality: You agree that medical institutions and physicians may request your medical records. By signing, you confirm your consent to the processing of your data and to access and transfer of this data to third parties in accordance with the enclosed patient information.

2. Communication and Data Protection Risks You are aware of the risks involved in exchanging particularly sensitive personal data (e.g., possible access by unauthorized third parties via insecure communication channels). You consent to mutual contact between you and your doctor via the specified contact methods.

  • Medical data: This data is sent by the practice exclusively via secure communication channels.

  • Administrative matters: You agree that appointment reminders or rescheduling may be made via unencrypted channels (e.g., from a @hin address to @gmail.com etc. or via SMS).

3. Billing (Tiers Payant) If you are not a self-payer, the invoice will be sent electronically via MediData directly to your health insurance company (provided the company supports this). This has the advantage for you that you do not have to pay the entire amount upfront, but only the deductible to the insurance company. You will receive a copy of the invoice for your records in any case.

4. Documentation, audio recording and AI (intonation) To ensure the quality of treatment, you agree to the following:

  • At least one photo will be taken for your patient file.

  • The conversation is recorded and summarized using the software Intonate (artificial intelligence). The audio recording is automatically deleted after 7 days.

5. Appointment cancellation and security

  • Cancellations: If you are unable to attend an appointment, you must cancel at least 24 hours in advance.

  • Cancellation fee: Appointments that are not cancelled in time or are missed will be billed to you privately at CHF 100.—.

  • Video surveillance: To protect our staff and infrastructure, the practice is under video surveillance.

 

Patient information on the handling of personal data

Below, we inform you about the purpose for which the aforementioned medical practice (hereinafter referred to as "the medical practice") collects, stores, or forwards your personal data. We also inform you about your rights under data protection law.

Responsibilities: The medical practice is responsible for processing your personal data, and in particular your health data. If you have any questions about data protection or wish to exercise your data protection rights, please contact the practice staff or your doctor directly.

Collection and Purpose of Data Processing: The processing (collection, storage, use, and retention) of your data is carried out based on the treatment contract and legal requirements for fulfilling the purpose of treatment and the associated obligations. Data is collected, on the one hand, by the treating physician as part of your treatment. On the other hand, we also receive data from other physicians and healthcare professionals who have treated you or are currently treating you, provided you have given your consent. Only data related to your medical treatment will be processed in your medical record. The medical record includes the personal information provided on the patient form, such as personal details, contact information, and insurance information, as well as, among other things, the informational consultation conducted as part of the treatment, collected health data such as medical history, diagnoses, treatment recommendations, and findings.

Duration of storage: Your medical records will be kept for 20 years after your last treatment. After that, they will be retained with your explicit consent or securely deleted/destroyed.

Disclosure of data: We will only transmit your personal data and in particular your medical data to external third parties if this is legally permitted or required, or if you have consented to the disclosure of the data as part of your treatment.

  • Your data will be transmitted to your health insurance, accident insurance, or disability insurance provider for the purpose of billing for the services provided to you. The type of data transmitted is based on legal requirements.

  • The transfer of data to cantonal and national authorities (e.g., cantonal medical service, health departments, etc.) is based on legal reporting obligations.

  • Optional: The necessary patient and invoice data will be forwarded to the debt collection agency for the purpose of debt collection (collecting outstanding monetary claims) or to the lawyer involved and the relevant state authorities.

In individual cases, depending on your treatment and your corresponding consent, data may be transmitted to other authorized recipients (e.g. laboratories, other doctors).

Revocation of your consent: If you have given your express consent to data processing, you can revoke this consent, in whole or in part, at any time. Revocation or requests to change consent must be made in writing. As soon as we receive your written revocation and processing cannot be based on any other legal basis than consent, processing will cease. The lawfulness of data processing carried out before the revocation remains unaffected.

Information, Inspection, and Release of Records: You have the right to obtain information about your personal data at any time. You can view your medical history or request a copy. A fee may be charged for providing the copy. Any costs, which depend on the effort required to create the copy, will be communicated to you in advance.

Right to data portability: You have the right to receive the data that we process automatically or digitally, either for yourself or for a third party, in a commonly used, machine-readable format. This applies in particular to the transfer of medical data to a healthcare professional of your choice. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done if technically feasible.

Correction of your information: If you find or believe that your data is incorrect or incomplete, you have the right to request a correction. If neither the accuracy nor the incompleteness of your data can be determined, you have the right to file a dispute notice.
