Data collected
The information collected will vary according to the services you access but will typically include:
Contact forms
When you fill in a contact form on my site, I will securely save your data in order to get back in touch with you regarding your request.
Cookies
If you leave a comment on my site, you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.
I may also have third party cookies and pixels for advertising on my site which may also be saved on your browser.
Embedded content from other websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
Analytics
Data on website usage and visits is collected by tools such as Google Analytics, but all data is anonymous and not traceable back to the user.
How long I retain your data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so I can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For users that register on our website (if any), I also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
Personal and clinical information records are retained for 8 years and then destroyed.
What rights you have over your data
If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data I hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that I erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data I am obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Where I send your data
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service. Beyond that, any data I receive will be saved on my personal CRM.
Your data will only be shared in reports sent to referring clinicians and relevant healthcare providers in the form of reports, unless you request otherwise. Otherwise, I will never share your data with a third party.
If you have any question regarding our privacy policy, please contact me.
