What personal data we collect and why we collect it
Visitors to our website
When someone visits www.joclarkmassagetherapy.co.uk we use a third party service, Google Analytics, to collect standard internet log information and details of visitor behavior patterns. We do this to find out things such as the number of visitors the various parts of the site. This information is only processed in a way which does not identify anyone. We do not make, and do not allow Google to make, any attempt to find out the identities of those visiting our website. You can find more information on how cookies are used on this website in the Cookies Policy below.
If we do want to collect personally identifiable information through our website, we will clearly state this, for example, in the form of a sign up button for newsletters which will ask for your contact details.
We will make it clear when we collect personal information and will explain what we intend to do with it, how we will store it and how long we intend to store it for.
Newsletter sign up
When you register for our newsletter, we collect personal information. We use this information to tell you about new products or treatments, to contact you if we need to obtain additional information, to check our records are right and to ask your views on our offer.

Treatment Records
If you come to us for treatments, we will ask you to complete a questionnaire prior to your first treatment and will update this on each visit with notes of changes to health data and treatments received. This record is regarded as confidential data and is held accordingly. We will confidentially and securely retain this data for 7 years after the date of your last treatment unless you request that we delete it prior to this. If you wish to request that your records are deleted, please let us know.
