5. LAWFUL BASIS FOR PROCESSING

Under UK data protection law, we must identify a lawful basis for processing personal information.

The lawful basis we rely upon depends on the purpose for which the information is being processed.

Contract

We may process personal information where this is necessary to enter into or perform a contract with you, including arranging and providing the assessment service you have requested.

Health and social care

Where we process health information as part of providing healthcare services, we may rely upon the relevant UK GDPR special category condition applicable to the provision of health or social care by a health professional who is subject to a duty of confidentiality, together with an appropriate Article 6 lawful basis.

Legal obligation

We may process information where this is necessary to comply with a legal or regulatory obligation.

Vital interests

In limited circumstances, information may be processed or disclosed where necessary to protect someone’s vital interests, for example in a genuine emergency where a person is unable to provide consent.

Legitimate interests

Where appropriate, we may rely upon legitimate interests for activities such as maintaining the security of our systems, administering our business, preventing misuse and dealing with legal or administrative matters, provided that these interests are not overridden by your rights and interests.

Where we rely upon legitimate interests, we will consider whether the processing is necessary and proportionate.

The ICO confirms that organisations must identify the appropriate lawful basis for each processing purpose and, where special category data is processed, an additional special category condition is also required. (Information Commissioner’s Office⁠)

6. CLINICAL CONFIDENTIALITY

Information you provide as part of your ADHD assessment will be treated confidentially and handled in accordance with applicable data protection law and professional obligations.

We will only disclose confidential information where there is an appropriate lawful basis to do so.

This may include circumstances where:

  • You have requested or authorised information to be shared

  • Sharing is necessary to provide or coordinate healthcare

  • We are legally required to disclose information

  • Disclosure is necessary to protect someone’s vital interests

  • There is a serious safeguarding or safety concern

  • Disclosure is otherwise permitted or required by law

We will seek to limit any disclosure to information that is relevant and necessary for the purpose.

7. INFORMATION SHARED WITH OTHER ORGANISATIONS

Where appropriate and lawful, information may be shared with selected third parties, which may include:

Healthcare professionals

With your consent or where otherwise lawful and appropriate, relevant clinical information or reports may be shared with your GP or another healthcare professional involved in your care.

Payment providers

Payment information may be processed by our chosen payment provider(s), including Stripe and, where offered, Klarna.

Payment providers process payment information in accordance with their own privacy policies and security requirements.

Horizon Clinical Group does not require or intend to store your full payment card details within its clinical records.

Website provider

Our website is hosted and operated using Squarespace. Squarespace may process information necessary to provide website hosting, security, functionality and any website services that we have enabled.

Clinical and administrative systems

We use secure third-party systems where necessary to support clinical administration, appointment management, communications, clinical documentation and related services.

Where third-party providers process personal information on our behalf, we will take appropriate steps to ensure that suitable contractual, security and data protection arrangements are in place.

Legal, regulatory or emergency disclosures

We may disclose information where required by law, regulation, court order or other lawful authority, or where necessary to respond to a serious emergency or safeguarding concern.

8. INTERNATIONAL DATA TRANSFERS

Some third-party technology and service providers used by Horizon Clinical Group may process or store information outside the UK.

Where personal information is transferred outside the UK, we will take appropriate steps to ensure that the transfer is made in accordance with applicable UK data protection requirements and that appropriate safeguards are in place where required.

The location and processing arrangements of third-party providers may change over time. We will seek to maintain appropriate safeguards for any international transfers.

9. HOW WE STORE AND PROTECT YOUR INFORMATION

We take appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal information against unauthorised access, loss, misuse, alteration or disclosure.

Clinical information will be stored within appropriate secure systems used for the delivery and administration of our services.

We do not routinely store clinical records on personal devices.

Where information is accessed or transmitted electronically, we use appropriate security measures and secure systems designed to protect confidential information.

No electronic system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. However, we take reasonable and proportionate steps to protect the information we hold.

10. HOW LONG WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION

We retain personal information only for as long as it is necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including to meet legal, regulatory, professional, accounting and clinical record-keeping requirements.

Clinical records may need to be retained for a longer period than ordinary administrative information.

Our retention periods are informed by applicable UK data protection requirements, professional obligations and relevant health and social care records-management guidance.

When information is no longer required, it will be securely deleted, destroyed or otherwise disposed of in an appropriate manner.
