Information we handle
We handle information that customers provide when they contact us, request a consultation, make a booking request, or communicate with our team. This may include:
- name, phone number, email address, and contact preferences;
- requested treatment or service, preferred branch, clinician, date and time;
- enquiry text, booking notes, consent choices, and source or campaign information;
- appointment history and related patient or lead records maintained in our CRM; and
- information needed to provide clinic services, where supplied directly to the clinic.
WhatsApp and Meta data
When a customer messages an authorized business through WhatsApp, Meta may deliver the customer's WhatsApp identifier, phone number, profile name, message content, message identifiers, timestamps, and delivery status information to Skin Society. We use that information to create or match a conversation, lead, customer, or patient record and to help authorized staff respond and manage an enquiry or appointment. WhatsApp communications are also subject to Meta and WhatsApp's own terms and privacy practices.
Skin Society OS and Platform Data
Skin Society OS is provided by wantsandneeds.ae as a business messaging and operations platform. We use Platform Data to provide authorized business users with WhatsApp customer messaging, appointment booking, CRM, customer-support, reporting, and related operational features. Data is used only to provide these services for the business that authorized access. Platform Data is not sold or used for unrelated advertising.
Why we process information
- to receive and respond to enquiries;
- to arrange, confirm, manage, and follow up on appointments;
- to maintain patient, lead, conversation, and service records;
- to operate, secure, troubleshoot, and audit the ERP and its integrations;
- to respect consent, opt-out, and do-not-contact preferences; and
- to meet applicable operational, regulatory, and legal obligations.
Service providers
We use service providers to operate this application and its communications. These include Meta and WhatsApp for WhatsApp messaging, and Railway-hosted application and PostgreSQL database infrastructure. Providers may process information on our behalf to deliver, host, secure, or support these services. We do not publish patient records or internal ERP information through this page.
Retention
We retain information for as long as it is reasonably needed for the purposes described above, including ongoing customer care, appointment and CRM administration, security and audit records, dispute handling, and applicable legal or regulatory requirements. Retention may vary by record type. Information may be archived, restricted, or deleted when it is no longer required, subject to obligations that require continued retention.
Security
We apply administrative and technical safeguards designed to protect information. These include authenticated access to internal ERP screens, role-based permissions, encrypted HTTPS transport, validation of Meta webhook signatures, audit records, and restricted access to production credentials. No system can guarantee absolute security, but we review and improve safeguards as the service evolves.
