  • Voluntarily complete a client survey or provide feedback via our website or via email
  • Use or view our website via your browser’s cookies

How we use your personal information

  • Respond to your enquiries about our services
  • Email you with information about our services
  • Contact you to arrange appointments or send invoices
  • Provide you the best possible treatment and support
  • Process your payments

We may occasionally need to share your information with other professionals involved in your care, such as your GP, Hospital Consultant, solicitor, or other members of the multidisciplinary team.  We will always do this with your consent and only when necessary for your treatment and management. 

If you do not wish to be contacted for marketing purposes, you may opt-out at any time by contacting us on This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.

Under the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR), the lawful bases we rely on for processing this information are:

  • Your consent. You are able to remove your consent at any time. You can do this by contacting us on This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
  • We have a contractual obligation to you, such as when we provide you with services or products. Please note that where personal data is processed on this basis, we will be unable to provide our services without the required information
  • We have a legal obligation.

Special Category Data

Under GDPR, some personal data requires more protection because it is considered especially sensitive, for example, information about a person’s:

  • Health
  • Racial and ethnic origin
  • Sexual orientation or
  • Sex life

We process this information for the purposes of providing you with the best possible health treatment.  For example, we may review details of your medical history to ensure that we are providing bespoke, accessible, and holistic care that takes into account any physical, communication, or psychological difficulties.

How we store your personal information

When providing you with services or products, we may collect personal data and record it in electronic or in paper format. 

We ensure that we take all necessary steps to protect personal data against accidental loss or unauthorised access.

We use a combination of physical procedures, working practices, and technology to ensure that your personal information is kept confidential and secure and is safeguarded against accidental disclosure.

Where necessary, we take strict measures to ensure that your personal information is not identifiable.

How long we keep your personal information

Personal data that we process for any purpose or purposes shall not be kept for longer than is necessary for that purpose or those purposes.

Resilience Neuro will review stored personal data once yearly, whether held electronically or on paper, to decide whether to destroy or digitally delete any personal data once the purpose for which that data was collected is no longer relevant. 

We will securely delete or anonymise data after seven years from when it was originally processed unless there is a compelling reason not to do so, for example, keeping important medical records or keeping in contact with clients.  Where records are in paper form, they will be shredded and where records are electronically or in audio-visual format, they will be digitally deleted. 

Where data is retained for other reasons of business planning or statistical analysis, it will be anonymised, for example by aggregation with other data to enable usage in a non-identifiable way.

Sharing your personal information

We may disclose your personal data to our insurers and/or professional advisers insofar as reasonably necessary for the purposes of obtaining or maintaining insurance coverage, managing risks, obtaining professional advice, or the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims, whether in court proceedings or in an administrative or out-of-court procedure.

We may also share your personal information with statutory bodies, law enforcement agencies, healthcare authorities, and public organisations such as the NHS, to fulfil our legal and regulatory obligations and mandatory legal requests.

From time to time we may need to share your personal data with selected professionals, providers, and partners that help us provide our service to you.  These providers will be given access to your personal data only as is critically necessary to provide our service.  They will only be provided with any personal data to enable them to provide such services and not for any other purpose. 

We maintain GDPR-compliant data processing agreements and ensure that we have adequate safeguards in place with all of our third party providers with whom we share personal data. We only use those service providers and suppliers who undertake to treat your personal information with the same degree of care and consideration that we exercise and we sign data protection agreements with them to ensure this.  However, third party providers and suppliers act on their own accord and you will be subject to their terms and conditions and privacy policy.
