A: What does this Policy cover?


This Privacy Policy covers our treatment of information that may be gathered when you are accessing or using our website. We may gather various types of information, including information that identifies you as an individual (“Personal Information”). The websites www.LondonSportsPhysician.co.uk and www.SportsPhysician.uk are owned by LSP Enterprises Ltd (Registered company number 07638383, Companies House, England & Wales).

LSP Enterprises Ltd (referred in this document going forwards as ‘LSP’) is committed to respecting your right to privacy and protecting any personal information you provide to us. We are a Data Controller and registered on the Data Protection Register of the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) with registration number ZA150863.

LSP’s Data Protection Officer (DPO) is Mr. Richard Seah. He can be contacted via email on seah@hcaconsultant.co.uk


B: General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and your personal data

 

Since 25th May 2018, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) has replaced previous data protection legislation. The prior principles of data protection continue to hold true but are now strengthened in the key areas of process transparency, data accuracy, minimisation and accountability.

This privacy notice informs you how LSP will collect and use your personal data for the purposes of patient management.


C: Why does LSP need to collect and store personal data?


In order for us to perform appropriate medical assessment, management and treatment, LSP needs to collect personal data for identification and correspondence purposes. We are fully committed to ensuring the information collected and utilised is appropriate for these purposes, and importantly, does not constitute an abuse or invasion of your privacy.

In regards to being contacted for any non-medical or marketing purposes, LSP would contact you for additional consent.


D: Will my personal data be shared?


If appropriate and with your agreement, we may need to pass your personal data on to third-party service providers in the course of carrying out your treatment plan. Examples of this would include, but are not exclusive to, other medical, allied health and biomedical professionals and services.

Any third parties we may share your data with are obliged to keep your details confidential, secure and use them only to fulfil the services provided.  When your data is no longer required to fulfil this service, they will dispose of those details in line with GDPR policy. If we need to pass your sensitive personal data onto a third party, we will only do so once we have obtained your consent, except where we are legally obliged to do so otherwise.


E: How is the personal data that is collected utilised?


LSP will not sell your personal information to anyone. We will only use and disclose personal information for the purposes for which it was initially collected, and for purposes which are directly related to our functions or activities.

LSP will process (collect, store and use) the information provided in a manner compatible with GDPR. We will endeavour to keep your information accurate and contemporaneous, and not keep it for longer than is necessary.

LSP is required to retain information in accordance with the law, such as information needed for income tax and audit purposes. How long certain kinds of personal data should be kept will be governed by specific business sector requirements and agreed practices. Personal data may also be held in addition to these periods, depending on individual business needs.


F: Under what circumstances will LSP contact me?


We aim not to be intrusive, and undertake not to ask unnecessary or irrelevant questions. Additionally, the information provided by you will be subject to rigorous measures and procedures to minimise risk of unauthorised access or disclosure.


G: Can I find out the personal data that the organisation holds about me?


LSP, at your request, can confirm what information we hold about you and how it is processed. If LSP does hold personal data about you, you can request the following information:

  • Identity and contact details of the person or organisation that has determined how and why to process your data. In certain cases, this will be a representative in the EU.
  • Contact details of the Data Protection Officer (DPO).

  • If processing is based on the legitimate interests of LSP or a third party, information about those interests.
  • Categories of personal data collected, stored and processed.
  • Recipients or categories of recipients that the data will be disclosed to.
  • If we intend to transfer the personal data to another country or international organisation, information about how we ensure this is done securely. The EU has approved sending personal data to some countries because they meet a minimum standard of data protection. In other cases, we will ensure there are specific measures in place to secure your information.
  • Duration the data will be stored.
  • Details of your rights to correct, erase, restrict or object to such processing.
  • Information about your right to withdraw consent at any time.
  • How to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority.
  • Whether the provision of personal data is a statutory or contractual requirement, or a requirement necessary to enter into a contract, as well as whether you are obliged to provide the personal data and the possible consequences of failing to provide such data.
  • The source of personal data if it was not collected directly from you.
