To provide you with our healthcare service.<\/p>
We will use your information to provide treatment and to contact you, this includes to remind you of your appointment and emailing exercises.<\/p>
Your information is not passed to third parties except in relation to your care, and as specified above unless any overriding lawful reason exists for sharing this, and is usually only done with your consent wherever possible.<\/p>

We would like to stay in touch with you to provide general information that can help you live well, keep you up to date with any changes in our service, and generally send you information which the GDPR labels as direct marketing. We will only do this with your permission.<\/p>
To keep clients and subscribers up to date with information we will use a third party email broadcast company which may be outside of the EEA, we will ensure that they have adequate technical and organisation measures in place to protect the information. Subscribers can change their preferences at any time by clicking on the unsubscribe link in any email broadcast, or simply email us at info@unityphysio.co.uk and you will be removed from our broadcast list.<\/p>
If you give a testimonial, we would attribute this to you in a way you choose although we don\u2019t usually state your full name. At any time you can withdraw your consent, but any testimonial or case study used in hardcopy marketing materials or already indexed by search engines may be difficult to stop.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
If you attend an event run by us some of the organisation of this may be managed by a third party company such as Eventbrite. When this is the case the company may eb outside of the EEA, we will ensure that they have adequate technical and organisation measures in place to protect the information.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
Your data is stored on a locked computer, backed up onto a password protected external drive and cloud storage which is also password protected and meets GDPR requirements. Emails are downloaded and stored with your patient file and then the email is deleted. Text messages are stored on a locked phone.<\/p>
Whilst we always aim to keep your data within the UK, or EU, this may not always be possible. For example, we utilise some exercise management platforms to assist you with doing your exercises and these may be hosted outside the EEA. Your name, email and list of recommended exercises is the only data held on these sites. We will only use sites that can demonstrate adequate security to protect your information.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
Legally medical records have to be kept 8 years from the date of your last treatment, and to age 25 years for children so this is the duration of time we store your data for.<\/p>
Where specific concerns have been identified, it may be necessary to retain certain records for a longer period of time. Where this is the case they will be securely stored.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
