This Privacy Notice & Cookie Policy explains how we use your personal data: how it is collected, how it is held, and how it is processed. It also explains your rights under the law relating to your personal data.
Personal data is defined by the General Data Protection Regulation (EU Regulation 2016/679) (the “GDPR”) as “any information relating to an identifiable person who can be directly or indirectly identified in particular by reference to an identifier”.
Personal data is, in simple terms, any information about you that enables you to be identified. Personal data covers obvious information such as your name and contact details, but it also covers less obvious information such as identification numbers, electronic location data, and other online identifiers.
The personal data that we use is set out in Part 5, below.
Under the GDPR, you have the following rights, which we will always work to uphold:
For more information about our use of your personal data or exercising your rights as outlined above, please contact us using the details provided in Part 11.
Further information about your rights can also be obtained from the Information Commissioner’s Office or your local Citizens Advice Bureau.
If you have any cause for complaint about our use of your personal data, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office.
We may collect some or all of the following personal data through your contact with us including by phone, by email, through our websites, by post, by filling in application or other forms, through social media or in person (for example, in medical consultations, diagnosis and treatment). This may vary according to your relationship with us and the purposes for which you engage our services or purchase our products:
Your personal data may also be collected from third parties (anyone acting on your behalf) such as:
Under the GDPR, we must always have a lawful basis for using your personal data. This may be because the data is necessary for our performance of a contract with you, because you have consented to our use of your personal data, or because it is in our legitimate business interests to use it.
We process your personal information for a number of legitimate reasons, including managing all aspects of our relationship with you, to help us improve our services and products, for marketing and in order to exercise our rights, for example, in dealing with any complaints. We can only use your personal information to send you marketing material if we have your permission or a legitimate interest as described below.
Legitimate interest is one of the legal reasons why we may process your personal information. Taking into account your interests and rights, legitimate interests which allow us to process your personal information include:
Your personal data may therefore be used for one of the following purposes:
We will not keep your personal data for any longer than is necessary in light of the reason(s) for which it was first collected. Your personal data will therefore be kept for the following periods (or, where there is no fixed period, the following factors will be used to determine how long it is kept):
We use specific contracts with external third parties that are approved by the European Commission for the transfer of personal data to third countries. These contracts ensure the same levels of personal data protection that would apply under the GDPR.
Where we transfer your data to a third party based in the US, this may be protected if they are part of the EU-US Privacy Shield. This requires that third party to provide data protection to standards similar to those in Europe. More information is available from the European Commission.
We will never sell, copy or generally distribute your personal data. We do sometimes need to share your information with other people or organisations for the purposes set out in this privacy notice and cookie policy:
If you do not wish us to advise your NHS GP of any particular matters, please inform us during the consultation and we will ensure that this does not happen.
We will keep your information confidential, save for where in some very limited circumstances we may be legally required to share certain personal data, which might include yours, if we are involved in legal proceedings or complying with legal obligations, a court order, or the instructions of a government authority. If we must share your personal information, we will ensure appropriate protection is in place to protect your personal information in line with data-protection laws.
If you want to know what personal data we have about you, you can ask us for details of that personal data and for a copy of it (where any such personal data is held). This is known as a “subject access request”.
All subject access requests should be made in writing and sent to the email or postal addresses shown in Part 11. To make this as easy as possible for you, a Subject Access Request Form is available for you to use. You do not have to use this form, but it is the easiest way to tell us everything we need to know to respond to your request as quickly as possible.
There is normally no charge for a subject access request. If, however your request is “manifestly unfounded or excessive” (for example, if you make repetitive requests) a fee may be charged to cover our administrative costs in responding.
We will respond to your subject access request within one month of receiving it. Normally, we aim to provide a complete response, including a copy of your personal data within that time. In some cases, however, particularly if your request is more complex, more time may be required up to a maximum of three months from the date we receive your request. You will be kept fully informed of our progress.
To contact us about anything to do with your personal data and data protection, including to make a subject access request, please use the following details:
