We will not use your personal data for marketing purposes without your explicit consent.

Legal basis for processing

We process your personal data on the basis of legitimate interests (responding to your enquiry), contractual necessity (providing treatment), and legal obligation (maintaining clinical records as required by our professional regulatory body, the HCPC).

We use Resend (a US-based email service provider) to process booking form submissions. Appropriate data transfer safeguards are in place.

Data retention

Clinical records are retained for a minimum of eight years after the last treatment date, in accordance with professional guidance. Enquiry records not resulting in treatment are deleted after 12 months.
