Article 7 – Pretecho (not a medical service)

A pretecho is intended solely as a fun reminder of the pregnancy and has no medical purpose.

The pretecho does not replace medical checkups by an obstetrician, gynecologist or physician. The pretecho does not look for medical abnormalities in mother or child.

If the client is already aware of medical abnormalities or suspicions thereof, this should be reported prior to the ultrasound consultation.

Article 8 – Quality of the ultrasound

Baby Glow performs the pretecho with the utmost care and uses professional ultrasound equipment.

However, the quality of the ultrasound images depends on several factors, including:

the gestational age
The baby's position and mobility
the location of the placenta
the mother's physique
possible scars

As a result, it may not always be possible to obtain the desired image result.

Article 9 – Repeat ultrasound

If the desired image cannot be obtained during an ultrasound, Baby Glow may decide to offer a repeat ultrasound.

A repeat ultrasound is only available for a sex determination or 3D/4D ultrasound and takes place at Baby Glow’s location.

Offering a repeat ultrasound is at the sole discretion of Baby Glow and does not entitle you to a refund of the amount paid.

Article 10 – Multiple pregnancy

In a multiple pregnancy, not all babies may be equally visible. Visibility depends on factors such as the babies’ position, gestational age, location of the placenta and the mother’s physique.

Baby Glow does its best to portray all babies in the best possible light, but no rights can be derived from this.

Article 11 – Gender provision

During a sex determination, an estimate of the baby’s gender is made based on the ultrasound images.

Baby Glow cannot give a 100% guarantee on the accuracy of the sex determination. No rights can be derived from the results.

If the gender is not clearly visible, Baby Glow may decide to offer a repeat ultrasound.

Article 12 – Liability

Baby Glow shall only be liable for direct damages resulting from Baby Glow’s provable negligence.

Any liability is limited to the amount paid for the service in question.

Baby Glow is not liable for indirect damage, consequential damage or damage resulting from circumstances beyond Baby Glow’s control.

Article 13 – Privacy and confidentiality

Baby Glow handles its customers’ personal data with care.

All information obtained during the ultrasound consultation is kept confidential and not shared with third parties without consent, unless required by law.

Ultrasound images are kept for a maximum of 60 days. After this period, the files are deleted.

Although Baby Glow makes every effort to store all files carefully, no guarantee can be made that files will always be available during this period.

After the appointment, the images taken will be provided to the client digitally. Upon request, the files can be provided on a usb stick for an additional charge.
