Privacy
Your privacy matters. This page explains what information this website collects and how it is handled. It is a general statement and not a contract.
Information you provide
If you use the referral details on this site, you (or your referring doctor) may provide your name, contact information, and brief health information. This is used only to arrange your care and is shared with Dr. Irshad’s clinic. A referral from a licensed physician is required to be seen by Dr. Irshad.
Self-assessment tools
The self-assessment questionnaires on this site (for example the HDSS sweating scale and the facial-flushing self-check) run entirely in your web browser. Your answers are not stored, transmitted, or seen by anyone — they are used only to display your on-screen result and disappear when you leave the page.
Website analytics
This site uses Google Analytics, which collects anonymised usage data (such as which pages are visited, and general device and location information) to help us understand and improve the site. It does not identify you personally and does not collect health information.
Cookies
Analytics may place small cookies on your device. You can block or delete cookies at any time in your browser settings; the site will still work.
Email & messages
Please note that ordinary email is not a secure way to send personal health information. Avoid including sensitive medical details in email, and never use this website for urgent medical issues.
Links to other websites
This site links to other organisations (for example William Osler Health System, PubMed, the Toronto Sweat Clinic, and 360 Sleeve). Those websites have their own privacy practices, which we do not control.
Your health information (PHIPA)
Any personal health information handled by Dr. Irshad’s clinic is managed in accordance with Ontario’s Personal Health Information Protection Act (PHIPA). To ask about the information held about you, contact the clinic at (905) 458-4520.
