This Privacy Policy explains how Genesys Digital Pty Ltd (ABN 12 683 461 663), trading as Appointment Catcher (we, us, our), collects, uses, stores and discloses personal information. We handle personal information in line with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles.
By using our website or our service, you agree to your personal information being handled as described in this policy.
Appointment Catcher is a missed-call text-back service for clinics and other businesses. We deal with two groups of people:
When we handle a Caller's information, we do so on behalf of and under the instructions of the Client they called. The Client is responsible for its own relationship with its Callers and for having its own privacy practices in place. If you are a Caller and have a question about your information, you can contact the clinic you called, or contact us and we will help.
We collect information directly from you (for example, when you sign up, fill in a form, call our demo line or contact us), automatically when calls and messages pass through the service, and through cookies and similar tools on our website. We collect Caller information because a Caller phones a Client whose calls are forwarded to the service.
We do not sell personal information, and we do not use Caller information to market our own or anyone else's products to Callers.
We do not ask for health information. However, because many of our Clients are clinics, a Caller may choose to include health information in a text reply (for example, describing a treatment or concern). Where that happens, we handle that information only to pass it to the Client the Caller contacted and to operate the service. We do not analyse it, use it for any other purpose, or disclose it to anyone else except as described in this policy or as required by law.
Clients should not use the service to request detailed health information from Callers by text, and should move clinical conversations to their usual secure channels.
Every text sent through the service identifies the business the Caller phoned. Callers can reply STOP at any time to stop receiving texts from that business through the service. Clients can also ask us to stop texting a particular number.
We share personal information only as needed to run the service, including with:
Some of our service providers store or process information outside Australia, including in the United States. Where we disclose information overseas, we take reasonable steps to ensure the recipient handles it consistently with the Australian Privacy Principles.
Our website may use cookies, pixels and similar tools (for example, Google and Meta tools) to understand how visitors use the site and to measure and show our advertising. These tools may collect information such as pages viewed, device details and approximate location. You can control cookies through your browser settings and the ad-preference settings of the relevant platforms.
We take reasonable steps to protect personal information from misuse, interference, loss, and unauthorised access, change or disclosure. This includes using reputable providers, access controls and secure connections. No system is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee security.
We keep information for as long as it is needed for the purposes above. When a Client cancels, we delete or de-identify that Client's Caller records within 90 days, unless the Client asks for earlier deletion or we need to keep something to meet a legal obligation. Billing records are kept for as long as tax law requires.
You can ask to access or correct personal information we hold about you by emailing [email protected]. We will respond within a reasonable time, usually within 30 days. If we refuse a request, we will tell you why, where we are allowed to. If you are a Caller, we may refer your request to the Client you called, since we hold your information on their behalf.
If you have a concern about how we have handled your personal information, please contact us first at [email protected]. We will acknowledge your complaint and aim to resolve it within 30 days. If you are not satisfied with our response, you can contact the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC) at oaic.gov.au.
We may update this policy from time to time. The current version will always be on this page, with the date it was last updated.
