Privacy
Privacy Policy
We treat your personal and health information with the same seriousness we expect from a clinic. This page explains, in plain language, what we collect, why we collect it, and what you can ask us to do with it.
Effective January 1, 2025
01
Who we are
AUSTICA HEALTH & AUSTICA INC (collectively, “AUSTICA”, “we”, “our”, “us”) operate this website (https://austicahealth.com) and provide nutrition consultations, programs and educational content.
For any privacy questions or requests, write to austicahealth@gmail.com. We respond within 1 working day.
02
What information we collect
We only collect what we actually need:
- Contact details you submit — name, email, phone (optional), city, age range, and the message you write to us.
- Health and lifestyle information you choose to share during intake forms or consultations — for example dietary preferences, medical conditions, sports training load, sleep patterns.
- Booking metadata — the slot you requested, your timezone, and our internal status notes.
- Basic usage analytics — anonymised device, browser and page-view information, only after you accept analytics cookies.
We do not buy data about you from third parties, and we do not run advertising networks on this website.
03
How we use your information
- To respond to your enquiry and schedule consultations.
- To prepare a nutrition plan that genuinely fits your situation.
- To follow up on your progress, when you have asked us to.
- To improve the website and our written materials.
- To meet legal, accounting and clinical record-keeping obligations.
04
Legal basis for processing
We rely on your consent when you submit a form or accept cookies, on the performance of a contract when you become a client, and on our legitimate interests in operating a safe and lawful business. Where Indian law (Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023) or the EU/UK GDPR applies, we honour the rights it grants you.
06
How long we keep it
Enquiry messages are kept for up to 24 months unless you become a client. Client records (including consultation notes and nutrition plans) are kept for as long as you remain an active client and for 7 years thereafter, in line with standard professional record-keeping practice. You can ask us to delete records earlier, subject to legal obligations.
07
Your rights
You can ask us, at any time, to:
- Access a copy of the information we hold about you.
- Correct inaccurate information.
- Delete information we no longer need to keep.
- Withdraw consent for marketing or analytics.
- Port your information to another provider.
Email austicahealth@gmail.com with the subject line “Privacy request”.
08
Security
We use TLS encryption in transit, access controls, and the principle of least privilege internally. No system is perfectly secure; if we ever discover a breach affecting your personal data we will notify you and the relevant authority promptly.
09
Children
We provide nutrition guidance for children and teens, but always through a parent or legal guardian. We do not knowingly collect personal data from a child without verified parental consent.

Changes to this policy
We will update this page when our practices change. The “Effective” date at the top reflects the most recent version. Material changes will be flagged on the homepage for at least 30 days.
