Type of data and the legal grounds on which data is processed
As a Healthcare organisation we have a legal duty to collect and process information relating to the creation of medical records (patients) including billing information for insurance companies, personnel records (staff), as well as receiving enquiries (website) and conducting surveys. As such, we will ensure all personal data is collected, held and transferred (where required) in a lawful manner and in line with GDPR 2018.

No data will be transferred outside of EU borders.
How Long Will The Data We Hold Be Kept For
Different types of data have different legal ‘retention periods’ that we abide to, such as medical records and personnel records retention periods.

Equally individuals have the right to ask for their data to be destroyed or transferred elsewhere if they wish, at any time (providing no other laws prevent this from happening).
