This data is processed with the legal basis of legitimate interest and the contract agreed prior to sessions.
Information provided will only be shared at your request/with your consent unless i believe that there is a risk to yourself, others, or there is a legal obligation (e.g. report of a serious offence). Data is stored securely electronically and/or in paper format and is retained for 7 years, which is in line with good practice guidelines by the Health and Care Professions Council. Data stored electronically is in word documents which are password protected on laptops which are also password protected. Data in paper format consists of handwritten session notes and is stored separately from all personal identifiers (name, address etc) and secured in locked filing cabinets. Information will only be shared with third parties if you approach me via a third party (eg. Insurance company) or as part of a legal procedure. In these circumstances this will be discussed with you within the initial session to ensure you are fully informed and consent to this.
