This document informs you about the data I will be collecting from you and what that data will be used For in this practice.
THE DATA WE REQUIRE AND ITS PURPOSE
Name– this basic information is used to identify you.
Address, email address and phone number – this information is used to contact you.
Emergency contact and medical professional’s details – this information is only used if there is an
emergency or I need to contact your doctor.
Session notes – I will keep brief notes of your session(s) with me, which I will store securely.
Will your data be shared?
All the data you share with me will be kept completely confidential unless:
1. I have been subpoenaed by a court of law to use your data to provide evidence.
2. It is clear that you or someone you know is at risk of harm or harming others.
I may also discuss your case with colleagues, but, in those circumstances, I would not use your name
or any other details that would make you identifiable.
How will your data be stored?
Hardcopies of your data will be stored in a locked filing cabinet. Any data stored on my computer will be password-protected and kept private by using your initials in place of your full name. As such, only I will have access to your information.
How long will your data be stored, and how will it be disposed of?
I will keep your data, including your session notes, for as long as I am required to by my insurance
company, after which time I will dispose of it. To dispose of your data, I will destroy all hard copy
documents containing your personal information and delete all your data that I have stored
electronically.
