HOW INFORMATION ABOUT YOU WILL BE USED

  • To fulfil a contract with you i.e. to provide the service or treatment you have requested and to communicate with you about your appointments

  • When it is in our legitimate interest i.e. there is a business or commercial reason to do so, unless this is outweighed by your rights or interests

  • When you consent to it: we will always ask for your consent to hold and use health and medical information.
