We only process such data to provide our Services and do so under the instructions of our Clients, under our Terms of Service. Our Clients are responsible for obtaining the necessary consent from Patients for us to process their personal data and special categories of data.

The Relationships
If the user wishes to contact or engage with a Doctor, Healthcarepakistan maintains an online platform enabling the following activities:
the User to electronically make an initial and further appointment with the Doctor
the Doctor and the User to communicate with each other through a messaging system
the Doctor and the User to communicate with each other through a voice and video conferencing system
the rendering of invoices by the Doctor to the User
payment of invoices by the User to the Doctor
Healthcarepakistan is not a provider of medical or diagnostic services. Other than maintaining the Platform, Healthcarepakistan has no input, involvement or influence on the interaction between the User and the Doctor.
Healthcarepakistan enters into a contract with the Doctor which governs the appearance of the Doctor within Healthcarepakistan and the charges made by Healthcarepakistan to the Doctor for the Platform.
Use of information
We will only use personal data when the law allows us to. Most commonly, we will use personal data in the following circumstances and rely on these lawful bases for processing your personal data:
o Legitimate interests: Where it is necessary for our legitimate interests (or those of a third party) and the data subjects’ interests and fundamental rights do not override those interests: the personal data we obtain is used to operate our business efficiently.
