Privacy Policy
This policy explains how this website (drjohnmackintosh.com.au) handles personal information. It does not cover the clinical medical records created as part of your care, which are held and managed separately by Wallace Street Specialist Centre in line with its own health records policies and the Australian Privacy Principles.
Information collected through this website
The only information this website actively collects is what you choose to enter into the "Make an enquiry" form on the Referrals page — your name, email address and message. When you submit that form, it opens your own device's email application with your message pre-filled, addressed to the practice's email inbox. Your information is sent directly from your device via your own email provider — this website itself does not receive, store or have a database of these submissions.
As stated on the Referrals page, please don't include personal health information in that enquiry form. For referrals or matters involving your health information, please have your GP or specialist contact the practice directly, or contact the practice yourself using the phone or fax details provided.
Cookies and analytics
This website does not use tracking cookies or third-party analytics.
Third-party content and links
Some pages load resources from, or link to, third-party services, each governed by that provider's own privacy policy:
- Google Fonts — used to display the site's typefaces. Loading a font involves your browser making a request to Google's servers.
- Google Maps — embedded on the Referrals page to show the practice location.
- Outbound links to external organisations such as Lung Foundation Australia, the Centre of Research Excellence in Pulmonary Fibrosis (CRE-PF), PACT, the American Thoracic Society, Scleroderma Australia, Arthritis Australia, Team Telomere, HealthShare, and academic/publication databases (PubMed, ORCID). We are not responsible for the privacy practices of these external sites.
Access, correction and complaints
Since this website does not retain a record of enquiry form submissions, there is generally no website-held personal information to access or correct. If you have a privacy question about this website, or a concern about how the practice more broadly handles your personal or health information, please contact Wallace Street Specialist Centre using the details below. You may also make a complaint to the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC) at oaic.gov.au.
