We may use your personal data where there is an overriding public interest in using the information e.g., in order to safeguard an individual, or to prevent a serious crime. Also, where there is a legal requirement such as a formal court order. We may use your data for marketing purposes such as newsletters, but this would be subject to you giving us your express consent.

What are your rights?

Every individual has the right to see, amend, delete, or have a copy of data held that can identify you, with some exceptions. You do not need to give a reason to see your data. If you want to access your data, you must make a subject access request in writing to jane@jcnutrition.co.uk. Under special circumstances, some information may be withheld. We shall respond within 20 working days from the point of receiving the request and all necessary information from you. Our response will include the details of the personal data we hold on you including:

  • Sources from which we acquired the information.

  • The purposes of processing the information

  • Persons or entities with whom we are sharing the information.

 

You have the right, subject to exemptions, to ask to: 

  • Have your information deleted.

  • Have your information corrected or updated where it is no longer accurate

  • Ask us to stop processing information about you where we are not required to do so by law or in accordance with the NNA guidelines. 

  • Receive a copy of your personal data, which you have provided to us, in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format and have the right to transmit that data to another controller, without hindrance from us. 

  • Object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you

We do not carry out any automated processing, which may lead to automated decision based on your personal data. If you would like to invoke any of the above rights, then please write to the Data Controller jane@jcnutrition.co.uk

 

What safeguards are in place to ensure data that identifies me is secure?

 

We only use information that may identify you in accordance with GDPR. This requires us to process personal data only if there is a legitimate basis for doing so and that any processing must be fair and lawful. 

 

Within the health sector, we also have to follow the common law duty of confidence, which means that where identifiable information about you has been given in confidence, it should be treated as confidential and only shared for the purpose of providing direct healthcare. We will protect your information, inform you of how your information will be used, and allow you to decide if and how your information can be shared. 

 

We also ensure the information we hold is kept in secure locations, restrict access to information to authorised personnel only, protect personal and confidential information held on equipment such as laptops with encryption (which masks data so that unauthorised users cannot see or make sense of it). We ensure external data processors that support us are legally and contractually bound to operate and prove security arrangements are in place where data that could or does identify a person are processed. 

 

Jane Condliffe Nutrition is registered with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) as a data controller and collects data for a variety of purposes. A copy of the registration is available through the ICO website (search by business name).

 

How long do you hold confidential information?

All records held by Jane Condliffe Nutrition will be kept for the duration specified by guidance from our professional association NNA.
