We understand the importance of maintaining the confidentiality and security of personal data, and we adhere to the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) as mandated in the United Kingdom and are a registered data controller with the Information Commissioner's Office.

Information We Collect

We collect and process personal data for the purpose of providing therapy services, including your name, contact information, medical history, and other information relevant to your treatment.

​

Data Retention

We retain your data for the minimum duration necessary to provide you with the therapy services you require. Once our services conclude, we will securely and responsibly dispose of certain data, including client's phone number, emergency contact, and medical contact details (eg. GP contact details). All other data and information relating to clients and their therapy sessions will be held for the duration of therapy and for six years following the date of a client’s last therapy session. These timeframes are governed by UK legal requirements, our insurance provider and professional regulators. If after six years and no lawful reason to retain client data, all data will be disposed of securely.
