Our Privacy Policy

HERE AT THE PRACTICE WE TAKE YOUR PRIVACY SERIOUSLY.

Your information, including contact details and medical information we may hold, is strictly private and confidential. This information is only accessed and visible to healthcare professionals and staff directly involved with this dental practice when necessary. Communication with healthcare professionals outside of this practice will not occur without your consent or unless we are required to by law.

From time to time we would like to contact you with details of other dental services that we provide or introduce, such as additional clinics or introductory treatment offers.

To do this, we need to ask you for your consent before sending you this type of promotional message.

We hope that you will appreciate the benefit of receiving these messages, but should you wish to withhold consent then please simply let us know.

If you do provide consent, you may withdraw your consent at any time by following by contacting the practice directly.
Please be aware that other messages you may currently receive from us, such as recalls and appointment reminders, are not considered promotional activity and are therefore excluded from being covered by this request for consent. Should you wish to stop receiving these messages then you will need to express your desire to opt-out directly to our reception staff.

We might need to pass your details to trusted third-party communication companies who will deliver these messages to you. Your details will be used solely for delivering this message. We do not pass your details on to other parties for unsolicited marketing purposes.

A cookie is a harmless little text file stored on your device.

This statistical data does not identify any personal information. 

ABOUT THE COOKIES
