This policy outlines how we collect, use, and protect your personal and health information when you use our men’s health telehealth services and website leoformen.com in Alberta.

2. Alberta-Specific Health Data Protections
Under Alberta’s Health Information Act (HIA), we adhere to the following for all health-related data:

A. Custodianship & Stewardship

• We act as a “custodian” (or work with HIA-compliant custodians, like licensed Alberta physicians) for your health records.
• Health data is stored with Alberta-based or HIA-equivalent secure providers (e.g., electronic medical record systems like Telus PSS or Accuro EMR).

B. Consent for Health Information

• Explicit written/verbal consent is obtained before collecting/sharing health data for treatment.
• You may withdraw consent (unless legally required for prescriptions/safety).

C. Disclosure Restrictions
Health data is only shared with:

• Alberta-licensed healthcare providers involved in your care.
• Authorized third parties (e.g., Alberta pharmacies for prescriptions).
• Legal authorities if required by Alberta law (e.g., reporting communicable diseases under the Public Health Act).

D. Breach Reporting
Any unauthorized access to health data posing a “risk of harm” is reported to:

• You (the affected individual)
• The Office of the Information and Privacy Commissioner (OIPC) of Alberta
• Alberta Health, if applicable

3. General Data Practices (PIPA Compliance)
For non-health data (e.g., contact details, payment info), we follow Alberta’s PIPA, which requires:

• Limited collection (only what’s necessary for services).
• No selling/sharing of data without consent.
• Secure destruction of data when no longer needed.

4. Your Alberta-Specific Rights
You have the right to:
