How we contact you
Messages about your care. We contact you about your consultations, prescriptions and orders using the contact details you give us. These messages are part of the service and may be sent by email, phone or SMS. They do not require your marketing consent. Messages are sent under a neutral sender name that does not identify the nature of our service.
Marketing and feedback. We will only send you newsletters, offers, promotional messages, or requests for feedback or reviews if you have opted in to receive them, or through the communication preferences in your patient account. You can opt out at any time by replying STOP to a message, using the unsubscribe link in an email, or emailing hello@weightlossinjections.ie. Opting out of marketing does not affect messages about your care. We keep a record of when and how you opted in or out.
WhatsApp. We may message you on WhatsApp, which is operated by Meta Platforms Ireland Limited. When we do, Meta processes your phone number and the fact that you have received a message from us, under WhatsApp’s own terms and privacy policy. We do not send clinical details, prescriptions or medical records over WhatsApp.
