1. Right to Erasure

Both clinic users and end patients have the right to request deletion of contact info, user accounts, and credentials.

2. WhatsApp Opt-Out

Replying STOP to any WhatsApp campaign instantly unsubscribes and erases messaging preferences.

3. Deletion SLA

Electronic data deletion requests are processed and verified within 48 hours with a formal confirmation ID.

Option 3: Patient WhatsApp Notification Unsubscribe

For dental patients receiving appointment reminders or clinic receipts on WhatsApp

Patients who wish to stop receiving automated WhatsApp messages from their dental clinic can:

  • Reply STOP directly in the WhatsApp chat. Our system automatically de-registers the phone number from future broadcasts.
  • Contact your treating dental clinic to update communication consent in your patient chart.
Note on Medical Records: Under statutory regulations issued by the Dental Council of India (DCI) and State Medical Councils, doctors and clinics are legally required to retain medical treatment records, odontograms, and diagnostic X-rays for a mandatory statutory period (typically 3 to 5 years). Anonymization is applied where feasible.
