About Our Telehealth Platform

We provide a telehealth platform that allows patients to conduct video consultations with independent healthcare practitioners.

Important: We are not a healthcare provider. We do not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Healthcare services are provided by independent practitioners who use our platform.

You understand and agree that:

  • We provide the technology infrastructure only
  • Practitioners are solely responsible for their professional conduct, credentials, and the medical care they provide
  • You should verify practitioner credentials independently
  • We are not responsible for the quality, safety, or legality of healthcare services provided by practitioners
  • We do not guarantee practitioner availability, video connection quality, or healthcare outcomes
  • Technical issues may affect your appointments, and we maintain our platform to reasonable industry standards but cannot guarantee uninterrupted service
  • You are responsible for having appropriate internet connectivity and compatible devices
  • If a practitioner enables optional AI scribe services for appointment transcription, you will be informed and your consent will be required before any audio is transmitted to third-party AI providers

Any disputes about healthcare services should be directed to the practitioner, not to us.

Conducting Appointments

By conducting a telehealth appointment on our platform, you agree to:

  • Provide accurate contact information
  • Have appropriate internet connectivity and compatible devices
  • Test your connection before appointments
  • Attend scheduled appointments or give reasonable cancellation notice per the practitioner's policy
  • Pay applicable fees as displayed when booking
  • Communicate with practitioners directly about appointment details
  • Use a private, appropriate location for consultations
  • Not record appointments without everyone's consent
  • Follow any additional instructions from your practitioner

Cancellation and refund policies are set by individual practitioners, not by us.

Optional AI Scribe Integration (Future Feature)

We may offer practitioners the ability to integrate third-party AI scribe services that transcribe and summarize telehealth appointments. This is an optional feature that will be available in the future.

How AI Scribe Integration Works:

  • Practitioners must explicitly connect their own AI scribe service account to our platform
  • Practitioners control when AI scribing is activated for appointments
  • Before any appointment where AI scribing will be used, you will be informed and your explicit consent will be required
  • You can decline AI scribing and continue with your appointment
  • If you consent, audio from the appointment is transmitted to the practitioner's chosen AI scribe service
  • We act as a technical facilitator only - we do not record, store, or access appointment audio or transcripts
  • Transcripts and summaries are stored by the AI scribe service, not by us
  • The AI scribe provider's privacy policy and terms of service apply to their processing of your data

We are not responsible for:

  • The accuracy, quality, or reliability of AI-generated transcripts or summaries
  • How AI scribe services handle, store, or use your appointment data
  • The security or privacy practices of AI scribe services
  • Any acts or omissions by AI scribe providers

Any concerns about AI scribe services should be directed to the practitioner or the AI scribe provider directly.

Payment

All fees are in Australian Dollars (AUD) and processed through Stripe, our third-party payment processor. By providing payment information, you authorize us to charge applicable fees to your payment method.

Appointment fees are non-refundable unless the practitioner's cancellation policy states otherwise. You may need to agree to additional terms with Stripe to use our payment services.

If a payment fails, you remain responsible for outstanding amounts and authorize us to charge your updated payment method.

Technical Requirements

To use our platform, you need:

  • Stable internet connection with sufficient bandwidth for video streaming
  • Compatible device with camera and microphone
  • Up-to-date web browser or our mobile application
  • Adequate lighting and private space for consultations

Technical issues may affect your ability to conduct appointments, including internet connectivity problems, device compatibility issues, server outages, or software bugs. We are not liable for loss, damage, or inconvenience from technical difficulties.

Data Storage and Security

We store personal information (including your name, contact details, and account data) on Amazon Web Services servers located in Sydney, Australia.

Video and audio consultations are conducted using LiveKit Cloud, which operates a global network of data centers including in Australia. During appointments, video and audio streams are transmitted through LiveKit's infrastructure, which automatically routes participants to the nearest data center to optimize performance.

We implement industry-standard security measures including encryption of data at rest and in transit. You agree that we maintain security measures to reasonable industry standards. We cannot guarantee that our security will be error-free, that data transmissions will always be secure, or that unauthorized parties will never defeat our security measures.

Using our platform involves transmitting data over networks we do not own or control. We are not responsible for data lost, altered, intercepted or stored across such networks, or for technical issues caused by third parties beyond our reasonable control.

Third-Party Infrastructure

We rely on third-party providers to deliver our platform, including:

  • Amazon Web Services (AWS) for data storage (servers located in Sydney, Australia)
  • LiveKit Cloud for real-time video and audio infrastructure
  • Stripe for payment processing

LiveKit Cloud operates data centers globally, including in Australia, and automatically routes participants to the closest data center to optimize connection quality and minimize latency. Video and audio from your appointments are transmitted through LiveKit's infrastructure.

If practitioners enable optional AI scribe integration (a future feature), appointment audio may be transmitted to third-party AI scribe services chosen and controlled by the practitioner.

We may experience service disruptions due to issues with these third-party providers, and we are not liable for disruptions, suspensions, or terminations resulting from third-party infrastructure issues beyond our reasonable control. We may subcontract services to third-party providers without your consent.
