Privacy: what the Privacy Act 1988 (Australian Privacy Principles) means for this form

Nationally, the Privacy Act 1988 (Australian Privacy Principles) is tell people why you collect their details and how to reach you; health information gets extra care.

This patient intake form asks about health, which most privacy laws treat as sensitive. Ask only what the clinician really needs and say why next to the question.

CalendarForm keeps each business's answers separate, lets you export them to CSV, and does not use them for anything else. Link your own privacy notice in the form's description.

Booking times in Sydney

Sydney changes its clocks for daylight saving, so a Initial assessment at 18:00 stays at 18:00 local time all year. CalendarForm skips times that do not exist on the night the clocks go forward.

Customers booking from abroad still see the time in Australia/Sydney, with the zone printed next to it, and their confirmation email repeats it.

Set it up in four steps

  1. Sign up free, pick the closest business type, and rename the starter form to "Patient intake form".
  2. Set the time zone to Australia/Sydney and add your opening hours.
  3. Edit the questions above, add the the Privacy Act 1988 (Australian Privacy Principles) consent line, and attach the form to your booking page.
  4. Share your link. Each booking sends an email confirmation with a cancel link, and a reminder 24 hours before.
