How do we collect personal information?
We obtain personal information from you when you enquire about our services and activities as a potential client to one of our practitioners, register with us as a practitioner yourself, send or receive an email, make a donation to us, provide services to us, or otherwise provide us with your personal information.
We also gather general information about the use of our websites, such as pages visited and areas that are of most interest to users. We use this information to improve our website and make it a better experience for everyone. For further information, please see the cookies section below.
What personal information do we collect?
The personal information we collect might include name, address, email address, telephone numbers, date of birth, bank account details (for setting up regular direct debit or payment information) and your family relationships. Data Protection law recognises that certain categories of personal information are more sensitive. These are known as special categories of data and cover health information, race, religious beliefs and political opinions. We only collect special categories of data if there is a clear reason for doing so, such as where we need to ensure we provide the appropriate facilities or support.
