9. How Long We Keep Personal Information
We keep personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected.
The appropriate period depends on the type of information, the reason it was collected and any legal, accounting, contractual or regulatory requirements.
We generally apply the following retention periods:
General website enquiries
General enquiries may normally be retained for up to 24 months after the last meaningful communication.
Consultation and booking information
Booking and appointment records may be retained for the duration of the enquiry or client relationship and for a reasonable period afterwards.
Financial records
Invoices, transaction records and payment information may normally be retained for up to six years after the end of the relevant financial year where required for tax, accounting or legal purposes.
Health information submitted through the website
Health information submitted with an initial enquiry will be kept only for as long as necessary to consider and respond to that enquiry.
Where you become a client, relevant information may be transferred into an appropriate client record and retained in accordance with a separate service or client retention policy.
Marketing information
Marketing preferences may be retained until you withdraw consent or unsubscribe. We may retain a minimal suppression record to ensure that we respect your request not to receive further marketing.
Technical information
Website security logs and technical records may normally be retained for up to 12 months, unless they are required for an ongoing security investigation or legal matter.
Cookie information
Cookie durations vary depending on their purpose. Details should be available through the website’s cookie settings facility.
Information may be kept for longer where this is necessary to investigate a complaint, respond to a legal claim, comply with a legal obligation or protect someone’s rights.
When information is no longer required, it will be deleted, anonymised or securely destroyed.
10. Data Security
We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information against:
-
Unauthorised access
-
Accidental loss
-
Misuse
-
Alteration
-
Disclosure
-
Destruction
These measures may include access controls, secure hosting, encryption, password protection, software updates, backups, malware protection and restrictions on who can access personal information.
No method of sending information over the internet is completely secure. You should avoid including unnecessary or highly sensitive medical information in a general website message.
If we become aware of a personal data breach, we will investigate it and take appropriate action. Where legally required, we will notify the Information Commissioner’s Office and affected individuals.
11. Your Data Protection Rights
Depending on the circumstances and lawful basis used, you may have the following rights.
Right of access
You may request confirmation of whether we hold your personal information and ask for a copy of it.
Right to rectification
You may ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete personal information.
Right to erasure
You may ask us to delete your personal information in certain circumstances.
Right to restrict processing
You may ask us to limit the way we use your personal information in certain circumstances.
Right to object
You have the right to object to processing based on legitimate interests.
We will consider your objection and stop the processing unless we have compelling legitimate grounds to continue or the processing is required for legal claims.
You have an absolute right to object to the use of your personal information for direct marketing.
Right to data portability
Where processing is based on consent or contract and carried out by automated means, you may have the right to receive information in a structured, commonly used and machine readable format.
Right to withdraw consent
Where we rely on your consent, you may withdraw it at any time.
Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing completed before consent was withdrawn.
Rights concerning automated decisions
You may have rights relating to decisions made solely through automated processing where those decisions have legal or similarly significant effects.
We do not currently use website information to make solely automated decisions that have legal or similarly significant effects.
These rights are not absolute and may not apply in every situation.
To exercise a right, email contact@i-wellness.co.uk. We may need to request information to confirm your identity before responding.
We will normally respond within one month. Where a request is complex or multiple requests have been made, the response period may be extended where permitted by law.
You will not normally be charged for exercising your rights. A reasonable fee may be charged, or a request may be refused, where it is manifestly unfounded or excessive.
12. Marketing Communications
You can ask us to stop sending marketing communications at any time by:
-
Using an unsubscribe option included in the communication
-
Emailing contact@i-wellness.co.uk
Stopping marketing communications will not prevent us from sending necessary messages about an enquiry, booking, payment, appointment or service you have requested.

The website may contain links to websites operated by other organisations.
We are not responsible for the privacy practices, security or content of external websites. When you follow an external link, you should review the privacy information provided by that website.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children through the website without appropriate permission.
