What this website collects
Very little. The website has no forms, no accounts and no comment boxes. It does not use cookies, analytics or advertising trackers. You can read every page without sharing anything about yourself.
The website is hosted by Netlify. Like most web hosts, Netlify may keep standard technical records, such as an IP address, browser type and the time of a visit, to keep the site running and secure. These records are not used to identify patients.
When you contact the clinic
If you call, send a WhatsApp message, send an email or book through Justdial, your message passes through that service (your phone network, WhatsApp, Yahoo Mail or Justdial). Each of these has its own privacy policy. The details you share are used only to arrange and provide your care.
Please keep messages short, for example your name and the time you would like. Detailed medical information is best shared in person, during the consultation.
Confidentiality of your care
What you discuss in a consultation is confidential. Under India's Mental Healthcare Act, 2017, a person receiving mental health care has a right to confidentiality about their mental health, care and treatment.
Not an emergency service
This website, and calls, WhatsApp messages and emails to the clinic, are not an emergency service and may not be answered straight away. If you or someone else is in immediate danger, call 112 or go to the nearest emergency department. For free mental health support at any hour, call Tele-MANAS on 14416.
