This notice sets out the different areas where user privacy is concerned and outlines the obligations and requirements of the users, the website at www.pwroom.co.uk and us, the website owners. Furthermore, the way we use, store and protect any personal data we collect from you, or that you provide to us, will also be detailed within this notice.
THE INFORMATION WE COLLECT
When you book an appointment with us, we collect personal details such as your name, email and telephone number. This information is used to identify you and contact you about the appointments and services you have booked.
To provide a safe and effective massage treatment we also need to collect information about your health and medical background. This information is only used to ensure your treatment is as effective as possible.
Whilst you use the website we also receive information about your computer such as your IP address, operating system and browser details. This information helps us provide a better website experience for you.
When you buy a gift voucher, we collect personal details such as your name, email, recipient’s name and possibly a postal address. This information is used to identify you and provide the service you have requested.
CONSENT
When you provide us with your personal information in the course of booking an appointment, completing your massage intake form, making a payment or contacting us about our services, you are giving your consent to us collecting that information and using it for that specific reason.
We will not use your personal information for any secondary reason, like marketing, unless we have asked you directly for consent to do so.
How do I withdraw my consent?
For the purpose of legal protection we are required to hold the personal information you have given to us in the course of providing you with massage services and the notes about those treatments for a minimum of seven years. Seven years after your last treatment we will permanently delete all your personal information that we hold. If you withdraw your consent during the seven year retention period, we will archive your data until the seven year period expires. Whilst your information is archived, we will not access or process it in any way except if needed for legal protection or if we are required to do so by law.
Should you wish to withdraw your consent at any time please email info@pwroom.co.uk with your request.
How can I access, update or amend my personal information?
You have the right to review the personal information we store about you and your massage sessions at any time. These will be sent by email, in a PDF document attachment. You also have the right to request we update or amend your data if it is incorrect.
To action any of these rights at any time please email info@pwroom.co.uk with your request.
DISCLOSURE
Unless required to do so by law, we will not otherwise share, sell or distribute any of the information you provide to us without your consent.
DATA HANDLING & STORAGE
Our appointment booking is provided by Fresha, and our intake form and treatment note service is provided by Jotform. These services are GDPR compliant and specialise in providing secure collection, processing and storage of personal data for healthcare practitioners worldwide.
Your data is stored through Fresha and Jotform using their data storage facilities, databases and web framework, on secure servers. It is always encrypted when in storage and whilst being transmitted across the internet.

If you choose to pay for a massage or gift voucher with a debit or credit card, your information will be passed via Fresha using their secure online booking and payment system, or BACS payments. We never store your credit card details. For details of Fresha payment privacy policy and data storing click here.
THIRD-PARTY SERVICES
In general, the third-party providers we use will only collect, use and disclose your information to the extent necessary to allow them to perform the services they provide to us.
However, certain third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and other payment transaction processors, have their own privacy policies in respect to the information we are required to provide to them for your purchase-related transactions.
For these providers, we recommend that you read their privacy policies so you can understand the manner in which your personal information will be handled by these providers.
In particular, remember that certain providers may be located in (or have facilities that are located in) a different jurisdiction than either you or us.
If you elect to proceed with a transaction that involves the services of a third-party service provider, then your information may become subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) in which that service provider or its facilities are located.
As an example, if you are located in the UK and your transaction is processed by a payment gateway located in the United States, then your personal information used to complete that transaction may be subject to disclosure under United States legislation, including the Patriot Act.
Once you leave our website or are redirected to a third-party website or application, you are no longer governed by this Privacy Policy or our website’s Terms & Conditions.
