What is personal data?
Personal data relates to a living individual who can be identified from that data. Special category data is a subcategory of personal data and includes data relating to health.
What and why we collect your personal data
I need to collect personal information about your health in order to provide you with the best possible treatment. Your requesting treatment and my agreement to provide that care constitutes a contract. You can refuse to provide the information, but if you were to do so I would not be able to provide treatment.
I have a legitimate interest in collecting that information because without it I couldn’t do our job effectively and safely.
I think it is important that I can contact you in order to confirm your appointments or to update you on matters relating to your medical care.This is in your legitimate interest.
Provided I have your consent, I may occasionally send you clinic updates.You may withdraw this consent at any time, just let me know by email: claralouisebaker@gmail.com
How long do we keep your personal data?
I am legally required to keep client records for a minimum of seven years after your most recent appointment. In the case of minors, records must be kept until the patient reaches the age of twenty-five (seven years after reaching eighteen). After this, you can ask me to delete your records, otherwise I will retain your records indefinitely in order that I can provide you with the best possible care, should you need to see me at some future date.
Sharing your information
Your data is strictly confidential. I will never share your data with third parties without your consent. Only Clara Baker has routine access to your data to provide your treatment.
Your rights
You have the right to see what personal data of yours I hold. You can ask us to correct any factual errors. Provided the legal minimum period has elapsed, you can ask me to delete your records.
I want you to be absolutely confident that I am treating your personal data responsibly and that I am doing everything I can to make sure that only the people who can access that data have a genuine need to do so.
If you feel I have mishandled your personal data in some way, you have the right to complain. Complaints should be sent to the Data Controller:
