As part of complying with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), I am notifying you of how I process and save your data.

 

I have a legitimate interest in this data. In order for me to decide whether we can proceed with the treatment and conduct an effective treatment(s), I need to ask you specific questions prior to and during your treatment sessions and training. Your information will only be used as necessary, as part of your treatment session and training.

 

Unless you have given me your permission to make your personal information public (for example a public YouTube video of your session), the information that you provide may be viewed by myself and a governing body. I will also share your data only if required to do so by law. It will not be shared to anyone else. If I do need to share your data with the aforementioned parties, I will not need to seek your further consent.

 

If your data is stored on paper, it will be stored securely in a locked filing cabinet. It may also be stored on a password protected electronic device.

 

You can request to view the data that I hold on you at any time. If you would like to view the data that I hold on you, the request must be given either by sending me an email or by sending a letter to me by recorded delivery. I will send your data to you within 28 days of receiving the request.

 

I may contact you to discuss the progress of your treatment sessions and training to schedule appointments.

 

In line with the lawful basis above, your data can be stored for up to eight years. This is a requirement by the CNHC. I will store your data and comply with this CNHC requirement.

 

It is of my vital interest that your data is held securely. The data will be kept secure and safeguarded as far as reasonably possible.
