You may withdraw consent for processing based on consent by contacting us. Withdrawal may affect our ability to provide certain services or continue specific activities, although it will not invalidate processing lawfully undertaken before withdrawal.

Estiora may take clinical photographs, scalp images or other diagnostic records as part of your consultation, treatment and progress monitoring. Clinical photographs and medical records will be used for healthcare and clinical documentation purposes.
Similarly, patient testimonials, reviews, photographs, videos or treatment results may be used for promotional purposes only where the appropriate consent has been obtained.
You may withdraw permission for future promotional use by contacting us. Withdrawal will not necessarily require removal of material already lawfully published or distributed, where removal is not reasonably practicable or legally required.

These technologies may collect information such as browsing behaviour, device information and interactions with website pages. You may manage cookies through your browser settings and, where available, through our website's cookie preference mechanism.
