During the registration process, users are required to furnish certain details, such as their name, date of birth, gender, address, email, phone number, governmental documents (e.g., citizenship photo), and a password.
It's important to note that users can book mental health appointments without completing the registration.

Regarding the information collected during mental health bookings, users are asked to specify the type of therapy they seek (e.g., individual, couple, teen). Details collected include name, age, phone number, preferred clinical psychologist, gender, identity, relationship status, date, time, duration of current conditions, and preferred medium of contact. Optional information may include email, reasons for seeking therapy, medications (if any), and any queries users may have. Professional psychologists meticulously handle all collected data, including the information necessary for contact.
Additionally, we collect users' profile pictures for personalizing their profiles, and this information is securely stored on our server (https://nepcare.org/).
For Personal CRM, a feature aimed at enhancing user experience, we send timely notifications to remind users about medicine intakes. To enable this service, we collect information such as the medicine name, generic medicine name, and the scheduled time for medicine intake (e.g., OD, BD, TDS, QID). Users also have the option to include allergies and genetic diseases to keep track of them.
