We collect personal information from you in a number of ways – mainly when you register with the Site and when you order goods or services, and also from the way you use the Site. This personal information will include your name and title, AHPRA registration number, medical practice address, mobile number, email address and graduation year. We will use this personal information to help us verify your identity, deliver the goods and services to you and to give you the information you need to track your order. We also collect information about the goods and services you order and your use of the Site. This information is collected to allow us to provide further goods and services to you and for analytical purposes to examine usage trends. This will allow us to provide improved services to you.
