2. Information we may collect
When you contact us, we may receive information such as:
- your name, telephone number, email address and postcode;
- the type of care you are interested in;
- details you choose to include in your enquiry;
- technical information generated when your browser loads the site.
Please avoid sending detailed medical records or highly sensitive information through the general website enquiry form. Our team can explain a suitable secure process if more information is needed.
3. How we use personal information
We may use personal information to:

- protect our website and comply with legal responsibilities;
- improve the clarity, accessibility and performance of our services.
We process information only where there is an appropriate legal basis, such as responding to your request, preparing for a service agreement, meeting a legal duty or pursuing a legitimate business interest that does not override your rights.
4. When information may be shared
We do not sell personal information. Information may be shared only where necessary with authorised staff, carefully selected service providers, professional advisers, regulators or public authorities where disclosure is legally required.

Personal information is retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected and to meet legal, safeguarding or record-keeping responsibilities. We use proportionate organisational and technical safeguards designed to protect information from unauthorised access, loss or misuse.
6. Your privacy rights
Depending on the law that applies, you may have rights to request access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection or transfer of your personal information. You may also withdraw consent where processing relies on consent and raise a concern with the relevant data-protection authority.

This website does not currently use non-essential advertising or profiling cookies. It loads selected third-party resources, including Bootstrap, Bootstrap Icons, jQuery, Google Fonts and an OpenStreetMap embed. Those providers may receive technical connection information under their own privacy terms.
