Depending on the activity, our lawful bases under UK GDPR may include contract, legal obligation, legitimate interests, consent or vital interests. Health information used for care is generally processed under Article 9(2)(h), with relevant UK legal conditions and professional confidentiality safeguards.

Financial records are generally retained for six years where applicable.

We may share information with healthcare professionals, insurers, IT and booking providers, advisers or authorities where appropriate and lawful. We respect confidentiality and seek permission where appropriate, except where disclosure is otherwise legally justified.
