Info on GDPR
Info on legitimate interest

Held data will be used as appropriate.
Data Nathan may hold:
Name
Used to distinguish between different clients and contact people appropriately.
Email address
Emails will be used to contact clients about appointments. Discounts, events, and information (when signed up to the Newsletter or otherwise requested), and general contact when appropriate. Nathan will never send spam emails or over-contact.
Phone number
Phone numbers can be used for general contact e.g. arranging appointments, urgent updates on appointments e.g. calling/WhatsApp/texting when appointments need to be cancelled/changed, or anything else Nathan deems necessary. 
Address
If address information is stored by Nathan, it is not normally used. Examples of when address data may be used: cases of fraud occur, or if the appointment is held at the client's address. 
Information regarding health e.g. injuries, disabilities, mental health
Health data is used for the safety and well-being of clients e.g. determining whether clients are safe to partake in appointments, whether they have the correct accessibility, and supporting clients in appointments with their mind and body.
Bank/payment information
Clients' payment method information may be accessible to Nathan e.g. on statements, but this information will never be shared by Nathan with third parties. The only parties that will hold/share this information are the payment companies themselves e.g. Banks, PayPal, other payment services, and Nathan is not liable for anything third parties do with that information, or any losses to clients.
Data such as bank/PayPal/other payment information is not normally processed by Nathan, as payment is taken through banks/websites/services/card machines etc, using third parties, or invoices where Nathan is paid directly through these services, and therefore Nathan does not receive the details. If such data as bank/PayPal/other payment methods is held by Nathan, this data is processed in the same way as others.
When PayPal or banks are used, their privacy policies and other agreements are then in use, and customers agree to their policies separately from Nathan's policy, and it is up to clients to find and agree to that information.

Other
Client data will not be shared with third parties unless permitted to do so, or deemed necessary e.g. in emergencies, or for email services, phone services, bank/PayPal/other payment methods (for paying/being paid by clients). Data will never be sold to third parties or shared privately with parties that are not necessary.

Data will normally be held for at least 7 years and can be held longer.

Clients have the right to request information about what data Nathan holds about them.
Clients have the right to request the deletion of their data, Nathan then decides whether this is permitted.

Nathan has the right to update this notice at any point.

By booking and attending any appointments with Nathan you agree to this Privacy Policy.
