Privacy Policy & Data Protection

The General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR) of 2018 governs the way personal information is protected. 

 

My Data Protection Promise:

As the ‘Data Controller’ of your personal data, I take my role in the protection of your data very seriously.  As such, I promise to:

​

  1. Only collect data from you that is relevant to your treatment.

  2. Not pass on your personal data to any third-parties for marketing purposes.

  3. Contact you and get your consent if I need to communicate with other health professionals (such as your doctor) about your care.

  4. Use paper notes for your treatment records which are kept securely under lock and key.

  5. I maintain registration with the Information Commissioner’s Office, the UK’s independent body set up to uphold information rights.

 

Should you have any concerns about your personal data or you wish to have information about the personal data I hold about you, you can contact me at hannah.shadbolt@epionebodyworks.com
