We Care About Your Privacy
COMPLETE PRIVACY AND CONFIDENTIALITY OF YOUR BACK TO LIFE™ MEDICAL REPORT AND ALL IMAGE DATA.
Your Back To Life™ medical report and scan images contain sensitive and private medical information and diagnoses regarding your health.
Many entities, of which you may not be aware, want to collect, retain, and disseminate your medical and health information for risk profiling purposes (“loading”), procedure funding control, or commercial profit (database sales).
This is particularly applicable to the risk-based entities such as Medical-aids / funders, the life assurance industry, and health organisations.
Back To Life™ thus provides a totally private and confidential model and does not share your scan data/ report/diagnoses with any South African or international entity whatsoever – only with you.
