Your Privacy is Important to Me

 

It is important that I gather appropriate information about you and your child to help me provide information about my services, to tailor my classes specifically to your needs and your child’s needs, and to market and promote my classes.  It is a privilege to be trusted with your personal data and I have some procedures in place to ensure your information is treated carefully, thoughtfully and securely.

Generally, there are three components to the data that I collect.  Please be assured that all information I hold about you and your child is kept securely and is not shared with any other business.

Contact Information – It is important for me to convey important information about the class or course you have booked and I usually use email to do this.  Sometimes, I will phone parents ahead of a course of classes and sometimes I use text message to alert parents to a sudden class change, like in the unlikely event of a cancellation.  I may also ask for emergency contact details.  I will only ever use this information for my business purposes.

Personal information – In relation to baby massage it is important that I am aware of any medical issues so I can adapt certain aspects of the class accordingly.  This information is very personal and I respect that.

Photographs – I will only take your photograph if you are willing and I will only photograph your child if I have your consent.  I have special photography permission forms.  Photographs are stored safely and used on social media and my website as per the permissions form.

You have the right to ask me about any information that I hold.
