Terms and Conditions

In strict compliance with the Organic Law on Personal Data Protection of Ecuador, Dr. Tábata Tinoco's clinic guarantees the ethical, safe, and confidential handling of her patients' information.

• Processing of Sensitive Data: Personal data and health information collected will be used exclusively for the creation of your medical history, diagnosis preparation, provision of medical services, and administrative purposes related to your treatment.
• Confidentiality: Our entire medical and administrative team is subject to rigorous confidentiality and professional secrecy agreements.
• ARCO Rights: The patient retains at all times the inalienable right to Access, Rectify, Update, or request the Deletion of their personal data from our databases, provided the law allows it (except for medical history retention obligations stipulated by the Ministry of Public Health).

The purpose of this document is to transparently establish the rights, obligations, and commitments of the parties involved in the provision of medical, surgical, and weight control services offered by Dr. Tábata Tinoco. These terms are independent and complementary to the medical "Informed Consent" that the patient must sign prior to any intervention.

The medical packages offered are comprehensively designed for the patient's well-being. However, the exact coverage of services is strictly personalized and will depend on the individual medical assessment and the specific treatment plan budgeted and contracted by each patient.

Depending on your personalized plan, services may include fully or partially the following:

• Fees and Clinic: Costs associated with the use of medical facilities, necessary hospital care, and Dr. Tábata Tinoco's remuneration for her professional services.
• Assessments and Supplies: Pre-surgical evaluation, specific medical supplies required during the intervention, and the use of guaranteed high-quality surgical materials.
• Multidisciplinary Support: Consultations with specialists in nutrition, clinical psychology, or sports physiotherapy to establish personalized guidelines before and after treatment.
• Clinical Follow-up: Control consultations and check-ups scheduled by Dr. Tábata Tinoco to ensure a successful recovery and monitor progress.

Once the agreed initial deposit has been made, the patient commits to channeling their doubts, inquiries, and requests exclusively through the official channel:

• Procedures, Follow-up, and Emergencies Line: +593 99 356 1666

This number is enabled to provide assistance, coordinate appointments, and handle any emergency 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, ensuring an orderly, professional, and auditable communication flow.

Upon booking and scheduling any procedure, the patient makes a payment as an initial deposit. If the patient decides to suspend or cancel the procedure voluntarily and unilaterally, there will be no refunds of the initial deposit under any circumstances.

This value constitutes and is expressly accepted as a compensatory penalty clause, intended to immediately cover:

• The exclusive reservation of operating room time and blocking of the medical agenda.
• Administrative and logistical costs already generated.
• Medical examinations or additional consultations already performed.
• Medical supplies or devices acquired and reserved specifically for your procedure.

• Image Use: The patient expressly and voluntarily authorizes the use of their image, testimonials, or audiovisual material for informative and promotional purposes related to Dr. Tábata Tinoco's medical practice, provided their dignity and medical confidentiality are respected. This authorization may be revoked in writing at any time.
• Digital Responsibility: The patient commits to the responsible use of social networks, digital forums, and public media, refraining from spreading false, inaccurate, out-of-context, or deliberately misleading information that could cause real, direct, and verifiable damage to the professional reputation of Dr. Tábata Tinoco, her medical team, or the institution.
• Conflict Resolution: The exercise of the right to personal opinion or legitimate criticism will not be restricted; however, any conflict arising from publications that allegedly generate reputational damage must be addressed previously and mandatorily through a mediation process, in accordance with the Arbitration and Mediation Law of Ecuador. Failure to reach an agreement in said instance reserves the clinic's right to initiate pertinent legal actions and request immediate precautionary measures.

Breach of any of the clauses in these terms may lead to legal actions in accordance with the current regulations in the Republic of Ecuador. This document and the services provided are valid only under Ecuadorian jurisdiction, submitting to the competent judges of the city of Quito.
