What personal data do we collect and why do we collect it?

Contact form

If you contact us using the contact form on the website we collect the data shown in the that form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection. We will normally respond within one working day.  We use the information shared in this way to provide you with advice regarding treatment as part of our pre-contract or contract service to patients and potential patients, and to confirm your identity.  If you decide not to make an appointment for treatment we will delete the e-mails within one month of the date of the last message in the thread. If you do attend for treatment and the messages contain relevant information we may keep the emails as part of your treatment record.  For information about how we store treatment records and retention periods please see our Patient Privacy Policy.
