We are Kerala Ayurveda Clinic Ltd (KAC, we, our or us), a company registered in England with the number is 05669085 whose registered office and our clinic address is at 173 Belgrave Gate Leicester LE1 3HS.
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which came into force on 25 May 2018, protects and enhances the rights of individuals (data subjects) concerning information which is collected about them. These rights cover the safeguarding of personal data, protection against the unlawful processing of personal data and the unrestricted movement of personal data within the EU. It should be noted that GDPR does not apply to information already in the public domain.
We are committed to ensuring that your privacy is protected. We will comply with the GDPR, along with any national implementing laws, regulations and secondary legislation in the UK, including (without limitation) the Data Protection Act 2018 (DPA).
We are the data controller (as defined in the DPA) of the information you provide to us. We determine the purposes for which and how, any of your data is, or is to be, processed. Our Clinic Manager is our data privacy manager who is responsible for overseeing questions concerning this Privacy Policy.
If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy, including requests to exercise your legal rights, please contact the Clinic Manager using the details set out in the Complaints and contact details section below.
This Privacy Policy, together with our Cookie Policy (a copy of which can be found here) sets out:
By visiting any part of our website or any other website belonging to KAC, you accept and consent to our collection, use and retention of your personal information upon the terms of this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to any part of this Privacy Policy and do not wish to provide such consent, please cease to use our website(s) and do not submit any personal information to us.
We collect personal information to provide and tailor our services and products to our clients and potential clients. We will use the information collected from you to provide quotations, and to make contact with you (by telephone, email, SMS message, through social media messaging platforms and by post) to provide you with information regarding our products and services either in which you have expressed an interest, or which we believe will be of interest to you as a client or potential client of KAC.
We may from time to time use such information to identify our website visitors; we may also collect statistics about the behaviour of visitors to our website(s).
In addition, we may use your personal information to identify and prevent fraud, enhance the security of our computer network and information systems, and identify the effectiveness of promotional campaigns or advertising.
When you make initial contact with us, you consent to KAC opening and maintaining a sales dialogue with you until you either opt-out from receiving communications with us (which you can do at any stage) or until we decide to desist from promoting our services. We can also obtain consent to processing your data by you agreeing in writing (including by email) to be bound by the terms of this Privacy Policy. If we obtain consent from you to do so, we will also send you promotional marketing emails.
You have the right to withdraw your consent to the processing of your data at any time or if you prefer not to receive promotional marketing messages from us. Please let us know by contacting us:
Our websites use cookies. A cookie is a string of information that a website stores on a visitor’s computer or mobile device, and that the visitor’s browser provides to the website each time the visitor returns. If you do not wish to have cookies placed on your computer or mobile device, you should set your browser settings to refuse cookies before using any of our websites.
KAC does not sell, trade or pass on information gained from your engagement with us to any other party without your consent. We may, however, disclose your personal information if we are required to do so in order to meet our legal obligations, regulatory requirements or in response to a valid governmental request. We may also disclose your personal information if we are required to do so in order to enforce our contractual rights against you (under our terms and conditions of business or otherwise), including investigating potential breaches of those terms and conditions; to detect, prevent or mitigate fraud or security or technical issues; or to protect against imminent harm to the rights, property or safety of KAC, our other clients and/or the wider community.
We store your personal data using cloud-based technology provided by a UK-registered external third-party service provider, and therefore your personal data is shared with them. This may involve transferring your data outside the European Economic Area (EEA). Such countries do not have the same data protection laws as the United Kingdom and EEA. Whilst the European Commission may not have given a formal decision that such countries provide an adequate level of data protection similar to those which apply in the United Kingdom and EEA, any transfer of your personal information will be subject to such legally enforceable mechanism(s) for transfers of personal data as may be permitted under the General Data Protection Regulation that are designed to help safeguard your privacy rights and give you remedies in the unlikely event of a misuse of your personal information.
If you would like further information as to the safeguards we have in place in relation to international transfers of data, please contact our Clinic Manager (see the Complaints and contact details section below).
We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used or accessed in an unauthorised way, altered or disclosed. In addition, we limit access to your personal data to those employees, agents, contractors and other third parties who have a business need to know. They will only process your personal data on our instructions and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality.
We have put in place procedures to deal with any suspected personal data breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach where we are legally required to do so.
Information is collected from you when you complete an enquiry form on our website, where you have requested (via the website or in person) that we send you marketing information, or when you complete any forms or questionnaires in person or online in relation to the provision of our services to you.
