Sensitive information

Health Information and Assessment Images

Hair and donor-area photographs, medical history, medication information, or other health-related details may be requested or voluntarily provided as part of an assessment. Health information may constitute special-category personal data under applicable data-protection law and is handled with additional safeguards where required. Such information is used only for relevant assessment, treatment-planning, patient-support, or clinical-record purposes. Access is limited to personnel and clinicians who require it for the relevant purpose.

Providing photographs or health information for assessment or treatment does not by itself authorize Henesis to publish those materials for marketing, social-media, testimonial or before-and-after purposes. Where such use requires separate permission, it is requested separately.

Limited disclosure

Who We Share Information With

Information is shared only where relevant to the requested purpose, service delivery, clinic operations, or a legal requirement.

Henesis Personnel

Authorized patient-support, administrative, and clinical staff who need the information for their role.

Physicians

Treating or reviewing physicians involved in assessment, planning, care, or clinical review.

Service Providers

Hosting, IT, storage, and communication providers used to operate the website and patient communications.

Required Recipients

Medical service providers or public authorities where relevant to requested care or legally required.

Personal information is not sold to advertisers or data brokers.

Cross-border processing

International Data Transfers

Henesis works with international patients and may use service providers that process or store information in another country. Data-protection rules in those locations may differ from those in your country.

The providers, processing locations and applicable transfer conditions must be confirmed for each production workflow. Before production processing begins, Henesis maps relevant transfers and implements an applicable legally recognized transfer mechanism and related technical and organizational measures where Turkish data-protection law requires them.

Retention

How Long We Keep Information

Retention periods depend on the type of information, purpose of processing, legal requirements, and whether the information forms part of a medical or patient record.

A general website enquiry and a clinical record may therefore be kept for different periods. Information should not be retained for longer than needed for its applicable purpose or legal requirement.

Protection

Data Security

Henesis applies reasonable technical and organizational measures appropriate to the information and processing context.

  • Role-based or limited authorized access
  • Access controls for relevant systems
  • Appropriate storage and communication practices
  • Operational procedures for handling personal information

Your information

Your Privacy Rights

Your rights and the conditions that apply may differ according to your location, the applicable law, and the type of information involved.

  • Request access to your personal information
  • Request information about the purposes of processing and relevant recipients in Türkiye or abroad where applicable
  • Request correction of inaccurate information
  • Request deletion where applicable
  • Request restriction of processing where applicable
  • Object to certain processing
  • Withdraw consent where processing relies on consent
  • Request data portability where applicable
  • Object to a materially adverse result based solely on automated processing where applicable
  • Complain to the relevant data-protection authority

Henesis does not make final treatment-suitability decisions solely through automated processing. Clinical suitability requires human and clinical assessment.

Website technologies

Cookies & Analytics

Henesis uses strictly necessary technologies to operate this website, keep it secure, and remember your privacy choices.

Google Analytics may be used, through Google Tag Manager, to measure website performance. Where a consent choice is requested, analytics remains off until you allow it. In other cases analytics may start according to the site’s regional default. You can allow or disable Analytics at any time through Cookie Settings in the footer.

Advertising personalization is not currently enabled through this consent system. Henesis does not use this banner to turn on remarketing or user-provided advertising data.

Henesis does not intentionally send names, email addresses, telephone or WhatsApp numbers, patient photographs, medical history, diagnoses, HIV status, treatment details, or free-form consultation text to Google Analytics or Google Tag Manager.

Henesis also records selected first-party operational events, such as WhatsApp button clicks, on Henesis systems. Those records are used for clinic operations and are not sold. Browsers that send a Do Not Track signal are not included in those first-party operational records.

External platforms

Third-Party Services

Services such as WhatsApp, Google Maps links and hosting infrastructure may process information under their own privacy terms when you use them. Henesis does not control every independent processing activity carried out by those providers.

If you choose to send health information or photographs through a third-party messaging service, that provider may also process technical or communication data under its own terms.

Children

Our website and hair restoration services are not directed at children submitting personal or health information independently. If an enquiry concerns a person under the applicable age of consent, additional parent or guardian involvement may be required.

Changes to This Policy

This policy may be updated when our website, forms, communication channels, service providers, or legal requirements change. The effective and last-updated dates indicate the current published version.
