Privacy Policy

1. Introduction
Wellman Medical Pte. Ltd. (“us,” “we,” or “Wellman Medical”) is committed to respecting the privacy rights of our customers, visitors, and other users of wellmanmedical.com (the “Site”) and related websites, applications, and solutions provided by Wellman Medical and on/in which this Privacy Policy is posted or referenced (collectively, the “Solutions”). We created this Privacy Policy (“Privacy Policy”) to give you confidence as you use the Solutions and to demonstrate our commitment to the protection of privacy. This Privacy Policy is only applicable to the Solutions. This Privacy Policy does not apply to any other website or digital service that you may be able to access through the Solutions or any website or digital Solutions of Wellman Medical’s business partners, each of which may have data collection, storage and use practices and policies that may differ from this Privacy Policy. Your use of the Solutions is governed by this Privacy Policy and the Agreement (as the term “Agreement” is defined in our Terms and Conditions.) Any capitalized term used but not defined in this Privacy Policy shall have the meaning in the Agreement.
BY USING THE SOLUTIONS, YOU AGREE TO THE PRACTICES AND POLICIES OUTLINED IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY AND YOU HEREBY CONSENT TO THE COLLECTION, USE, AND SHARING OF YOUR INFORMATION AS DESCRIBED IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH THIS PRIVACY POLICY, YOU CANNOT USE THE SOLUTIONS. IF YOU USE THE SOLUTIONS ON BEHALF OF SOMEONE ELSE (SUCH AS YOUR CHILD OR FAMILY MEMBERS OR COLLEAGUE), YOU REPRESENT THAT YOU ARE AUTHORISED BY SUCH INDIVIDUAL(S) TO ACCEPT THIS PRIVACY POLICY ON SUCH INDIVIDUAL’S OR ENTITY’S BEHALF.


2. Information We Collect
2.1 Personal Information Generally
Some of the Solutions require us to learn more about you so that we can best meet your needs. When you access the Solutions, we may ask you to voluntarily provide us certain information that personally identifies you or could be used to personally identify you (“Personal Information”). Personal Information includes, but is not limited to, the following categories of information: (1) contact data (such as your e-mail address and phone number); (2) demographic data (such as your gender, your date of birth and your zip code); (3) insurance data (such as your insurance carrier, insurance plan, member ID, group ID and payer ID); (4) medical data (such as the doctors, dentists or other healthcare specialists, professionals, providers, or organizations (collectively, “Healthcare Providers”) you have visited, your reasons for visit, your dates of visit, your medical history, and other medical and health information you choose to share with us); and (5) other identifying information that you voluntarily choose to provide to us, including without limitation unique identifiers such as passwords, and Personal Information in emails or letters that you send to us. We may also collect additional information, which may be Personal Information, as otherwise described to you at the point of collection or pursuant to your consent. You may still access and use some of the Solutions if you choose not to provide us with any Personal Information, but features of the Solutions that require your Personal Information will not be accessible to you.
2.2 Traffic Data
We also may automatically collect certain data when you use the Solutions, such as (1) IP address; (2) domain server; (3) type of device(s) used to access the Solutions; (4) web browser(s) used to access the Solutions; (5) referring webpage or other source through which you accessed the Solutions; (6) geolocation information; and (7) other statistics and information associated with the interaction between your browser or device and the Solutions (collectively “Traffic Data”). Depending on applicable law, some Traffic Data may be Personal Information.
2.3 Personal Data Protection Act
In Singapore, Personal Data and Protection Act (PDPA) establishes a data protection law that comprises various rules governing the collection, use, disclosure and care of personal data. It recognises both the rights of individuals to protect their personal data, including rights of access and correction, and the needs of organisations to collect, use or disclose personal data for legitimate and reasonable purposes.
The PDPA provides for the establishment of a national Do Not Call (DNC) Registry. The DNC Registry allows individuals to register their Singapore telephone numbers to opt out of receiving marketing phone calls, mobile text messages such as SMS or MMS, and faxes from organisations.
The PDPA will ensure a baseline standard of protection for personal data across the economy by complementing sector-specific legislative and regulatory frameworks. This means that organisations will have to comply with the PDPA as well as the common law and other relevant laws that are applied to the specific industry that they belong to, when handling personal data in their possession.
The PDPA takes into account the following concepts:
• Consent – Organisations may collect, use or disclose personal data only with the individual's knowledge and consent (with some exceptions);
• Purpose – Organisations may collect, use or disclose personal data in an appropriate manner for the circumstances, and only if they have informed the individual of purposes for the collection, use or disclosure; and
• Reasonableness – Organisations may collect, use or disclose personal data only for purposes that would be considered appropriate to a reasonable person in the given circumstances.

2.4 General Data Protection Regulation
The EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) replaces the Data Protection Directive 95/46/EC and was designed to harmonize data privacy laws across Europe, to protect and empower all EU citizens data privacy and to reshape the way organizations across the region approach data privacy. The key articles of the GDPR, as well as information on its business impact, can be found throughout this site.

• EUGDPR.org
• The Regulation
• The Process
• More Resources
• Our Partners

The aim of the GDPR is to protect all EU citizens from privacy and data breaches in an increasingly data-driven world that is vastly different from the time in which the 1995 directive was established. Although the key principles of data privacy still hold true to the previous directive, many changes have been proposed to the regulatory policies; the key points of the GDPR as well as information on the impacts it will have on business can be found below.


3. How We Collect Information
We collect information (including Personal Information and Traffic Data) when you use and interact with the Solutions, and in some cases from third party sources. Such means of collection include:
• When you use the Solutions’ interactive tools and Solutions, such as searching for Healthcare Providers, searching for available appointments with Healthcare Providers and completing medical history forms prior to Healthcare Provider appointments;
• When you voluntarily provide information in free-form text boxes through the Solutions or through responses to surveys, questionnaires and the like;
• If you use our Site on mobile device(s) or use a location-enabled browser, we may receive information about your location, as applicable;
• Through cookies, web beacons, website analytics services and other tracking technology (collectively, “Tracking Tools”), as described below; and
• When you use the “Contact Us” function on the Site, send us an email or otherwise contact us.


4. Tracking Tools and “Do Not Track”
4.1. Tracking Tools
We may use tools outlined below to provide our Solutions to, advertise to, and to better understand users.
• Cookies: “Cookies” are small computer files transferred to your computing device that contain information such as user ID, user preferences, lists of pages visited and activities conducted while using the Solutions. We use Cookies to improve or tailor the Solutions by tracking navigation habits, measuring performance, storing authentication status so re-entering credentials is not required, customizing user experiences with the Solutions and for analytics and fraud prevention.
• Web Beacons: “Web Beacons” (a.k.a. clear GIFs or pixel tags) are tiny graphic image files embedded in a web page or email that may be used to collect information about the use of our Solutions. The information collected by Web Beacons allows us to analyse how many people are using the Solutions, and for what purpose, and also allows us to enhance our interest-based marketing.
• Website Analytics: We may use third-party website analytics services in connection with the Solutions, including, for example, to register mouse clicks, mouse movements, scrolling activity and text typed into the Site. We use the information collected from these services to help make the Solutions easier to use and as otherwise set forth in Section 5 (Use of Information). These website analytics services generally do not collect Personal Information unless you voluntarily provide it and generally do not track your browsing habits across websites that do not use their services.
• Mobile Device Identifiers: As with other Tracking Tools, mobile device identifiers help Wellman Medical learn more about our users’ demographics and internet behaviours. Mobile device identifiers are data stored on mobile devices that may track mobile device and data and activities occurring on and through it, as well as the applications installed on it. Mobile device identifiers enable collection of Personal Information (such as address and location) and Traffic Data.
• Cross Device Matching: To determine if users have interacted with content across multiple devices and to match such devices, we may work with partners who analyse device activity data and/or rely on your information (including demographic, geographic and interest-based data). To supplement this analysis, we may also provide de-identified data to these partners. Based on this data, we may then display targeted marketing across devices that we believe are associated or use this data to further analyse usage of Solutions across devices.
4.2. Options for Opting out of Cookies and Mobile Device Identifiers
Some web browsers (including some mobile web browsers) allow you to reject Cookies or to alert you when a Cookie is placed on your computer, tablet or mobile device. You may be able to reject mobile device identifiers by activating the appropriate setting on your mobile device. Although you are not required to accept Wellman Medical’s Cookies or mobile device identifiers, if you block or reject them, you may not have access to all features available through the Solutions.
4.3. How Wellman Medical Responds to Browser “Do Not Track” (DNT) Signals
Some web browsers (including Safari, Internet Explorer, Firefox and Chrome) incorporate a “Do Not Track” (DNT) or similar feature that signals to websites that a visitor does not want to have his/her online activity and behaviour tracked. If a website operator elects to respond to a particular DNT signal, the website operator may refrain from collecting certain Personal Information about the browser’s user. Not all browsers offer a DNT option and there is currently no industry consensus as to what constitutes a DNT signal. For these reasons, many website operators, including Wellman Medical, do not proactively respond to DNT signals.


5. Use of Information
