About People's Privacy

Privacy Statement
People can register to use evisit by entering their name, date of birth and their e-mail address. They also nominate a User name. Once they have done this, a password is e-mailed to them, so that they can start using evisit. From there, a person would typically identify their usual office and start to book appointments on-line. Revealing information about a person to another person without the consent of the first person is a breach of privacy laws in Australia and other countries, so evisit has a secure system to protect offices from accidentally breaching these laws. The first time someone tries to make an appointment at any office, the appointment is flagged by evisit as a new evisit user. evisit then warns the patient that they will need to state their evisit User name to the office on arrival for their first appointment. evisit also then communicates the patient’s name, date of birth and evisit User name to the office in question. This allows the office to confirm with the patient upon arrival, that the evisit User name really does belong to that patient.

Membership is a privilege, not an entitlement, and evisit may change its services and suspend, terminate or restrict your membership at any time if it believes that this is reasonably justified within the terms of this Agreement or any of its Policies. In the event that evisit changes its services, suspends, terminates or restricts your membership in the circumstances outlined above or in this Agreement, you may not be able to access our services temporarily or permanently and you are prohibited from applying for a new account. Our services are only available to, and may only be used by, individuals (that is, natural persons and not corporate entities) who can form legally binding contracts under applicable law. Without limiting the foregoing, our services are not available to persons under 18 years of age. If you do not qualify, you must not use our services. Although an account may be styled in a corporate, company or business name, it at all times is taken to be the personal account of the member who is registered on the account. Your membership is not transferable. Your evisit account (including feedback and associated member UserID) may not be dealt with in any way. In particular, you must not allow others to use them and must not transfer or sell them to another party. While you are a member you must maintain control of your account. You are responsible for what occurs on that account and must report any unauthorised use of your account or UserID to us. 2. Fees and Services.

By requesting an appointment (eg at an office where you have not had an appointment before, or with an office that is not currently an evisit user), you agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of that office, subject to any exceptions set out here, such as where those terms and conditions are in breach of this Agreement or unlawful. You also acknowledge that the contractual obligation of the appointment is not actually accepted by the office until such time that they have an active evisit account with sufficient credit to cover the cost of retrieving that appointment, and that they endorse your user account so that they may receive the appointment. 3.2 Making appointments. By making an appointment (eg at an office that has an active evisit account with sufficient credit, and where your user account has been accepted by that office), you enter into a contract with that office and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of that office, subject to any exceptions set out here, such as where those terms and conditions are in breach of this Agreement or unlawful.

TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE AND OUR SUPPLIERS SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIM ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF TITLE, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT UNLESS WE ARE REQUIREED TO PROVIDE SUCH WARRANTIES UNDER APPLICABLE LAW. For example, consumers (as defined by consumer protection laws) may be entitled to the benefit of certain warranties under applicable trade practices or fair trading legislation in Australia. If you are considered a consumer under an Australian consumer protection law that applies to evisit, you will be entitled to the benefit of certain warranties under that legislation. For more information on consumer protection laws, please visit www.accc.gov.au or the website of your state fair trading agency. Furthermore we do not guarantee continuous, uninterrupted or secure access to our services, and operation of our Site may be interfered with by numerous factors outside our control. To the extent that such factors are outside of our control, evisit shall not be liable. 8.2 To the extent that evisit and all affiliates and related entities of evisit are able to limit the remedies available under this Agreement, evisit and all affiliates and related entities of evisit expressly limit their liability for breach of a non-excludable condition or warranty implied by virtue of any legislation to the following remedies (the choice of which is to be at evisit's sole discretion): a. in the case of goods, any one or more of the following: i. the replacement of the goods or the supply of equivalent goods; ii. the repair of the goods; iii. the payment of the cost of replacing the goods or of acquiring equivalent goods; or iv. the payment of the cost of having the goods repaired; and b. in the case of services: i. the supply of the services again; or ii. the payment of the cost of having the services supplied again.

For example, if evisit is found (by judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction) to have breached a warranty or condition implied by law, and you are considered a consumer for the purpose of that law, then the limitation of liability in clause 9.1 will not apply to you.
