Revive & Renew is committed to protecting the privacy, confidentiality and security of the personal and health information entrusted to us.
As a nurse-led aesthetics, wellness and women’s health clinic, we understand that our patients and clients may provide us with sensitive and confidential information. We handle personal information in accordance with applicable Australian privacy laws, including the Privacy Act 1988 and the Australian Privacy Principles.

4. Clinical Photographs and Images
Revive & Renew may take photographs or other images where reasonably necessary for clinical assessment, treatment planning, documentation, monitoring progress or maintaining clinical records.
Clinical photographs form part of your confidential patient information and will be handled accordingly.
We will not use identifiable clinical photographs for advertising, marketing, social media, education or promotional purposes without obtaining the appropriate separate consent.
Consent to treatment does not automatically constitute consent for photographs to be used for marketing or promotional purposes.
5. How We Store and Protect Your Information
Revive & Renew takes reasonable steps to protect personal and health information from misuse, interference, loss, unauthorised access, modification or disclosure.
Information may be held electronically and, where applicable, in physical records.
We use appropriate administrative, technical and physical safeguards, which may include:
- Password-protected systems
- Restricted access to clinical and business records
- Secure practice-management and booking systems
- Secure storage of physical documentation
- Appropriate staff confidentiality and privacy procedures
- Access controls appropriate to an individual’s role and responsibilities.
We retain clinical and business records for the periods required by applicable professional, regulatory and legal requirements and securely destroy or de-identify information when it is no longer required, where permitted by law.
6. Disclosure of Personal and Health Information
We do not sell patient or customer personal information.
Personal or health information may be disclosed where reasonably necessary for your care or the operation of our services, including to:
- Medical practitioners and nurse practitioners involved in your care
- Prescribing practitioners
- Other healthcare professionals involved in your treatment, where appropriate
- Pathology, pharmacy or other clinical service providers where required

7. Third-Party Service Providers and Overseas Data
Revive & Renew uses third-party technology and service providers to assist with functions such as appointment management, communications, payment processing, website services, data storage and business administration.
Some providers may store or process information using infrastructure located outside Australia.
Where personal information may be disclosed to an overseas recipient, Revive & Renew will take reasonable steps as required by applicable Australian privacy law in relation to that disclosure.
Further information about the countries in which our relevant service providers process or store information may be requested from us.
8. Website, Online Bookings and Cookies
When you visit our website or use our online booking services, certain technical information may be collected automatically, including information such as your browser type, device information, IP address and website usage information.
Our website and third-party services may use cookies or similar technologies to operate the website, understand how it is used and improve our services.
Where third-party platforms are used, their own privacy policies may also apply.
9. Marketing Communications
With your consent or where otherwise permitted by law, we may contact you regarding clinic news, services, events, promotions or other information that may be relevant to you.
You may opt out of marketing communications at any time by using the unsubscribe facility provided or contacting Revive & Renew.
Opting out of marketing communications will not prevent us from contacting you about appointments, treatment, clinical follow-up, safety information or other communications necessary in connection with your care.
10. Accessing or Correcting Your Information
You may request access to personal information Revive & Renew holds about you and may ask us to correct information that is inaccurate, out of date, incomplete, irrelevant or misleading.
Requests should be made directly to Revive & Renew.
We may need to verify your identity before providing access to personal or health information.
In some circumstances, access may be restricted or refused where permitted or required by law. If this occurs, we will generally provide you with the reason for the decision and information about available complaint mechanisms, where required.
11. Data Breaches
Revive & Renew takes the security of patient and customer information seriously.
If we become aware of a data breach, we will assess and manage the incident in accordance with our legal obligations, including the requirements of the Notifiable Data Breaches scheme where applicable.
Where notification is legally required, affected individuals and the relevant regulatory authority will be notified in accordance with applicable law.
12. Privacy Complaints
