This Privacy Policy explains what personal information we collect through blossomvalleytherapycentre.com and our services, how we use it, who we share it with and the choices you have. It is written in line with the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 and the Information Technology Act, 2000 and its rules.

By using our website or sharing your information with us, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

Information collected during therapy and assessment

When your child attends consultations, assessments or therapy at our centre, our professionals record clinical and developmental information such as assessment results, therapy notes, progress reports and related medical history.

This is collected through cookies and Google Analytics, as explained in Section 6.

2. Information About Children

Our services are designed for children, but our website is intended for use by parents, guardians and adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children online.

Any information about a child is provided by, and processed with the consent of, a parent or lawful guardian. We do not use children's information for advertising or behavioural tracking. If you believe a child has shared personal information with us without a guardian's consent, please contact us and we will delete it.

We do not sell, rent or trade your personal information.

4. Consent

We process personal information on the basis of your consent, given when you submit a form, contact us or register your child for our services. You can withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us. Withdrawing consent will not affect processing already carried out, but it may mean we can no longer provide certain services.

5. Sharing Your Information

We share personal information only when necessary and only with:

  • Our professionals and staff involved in your child's care, on a need-to-know basis
  • Other healthcare providers, schools or specialists, only with your prior consent
  • Service providers who help us run our website and operations, such as web hosting, email and analytics providers, who are required to keep your information secure

6. Cookies and Analytics

Our website uses cookies, which are small text files stored on your device. We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors find and use our website. Google Analytics collects information such as the pages you visit and how long you stay, and this data is processed by Google in line with its own privacy policy.

You can block or delete cookies through your browser settings, or opt out of Google Analytics using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. Disabling cookies will not stop you from using the website.

7. Data Retention

We keep personal information only for as long as needed for the purpose it was collected or as required by law. Enquiry and appointment information is kept for as long as needed to respond and provide services. Clinical and therapy records are retained for the period required under applicable healthcare and legal requirements. Job applications from unsuccessful candidates are deleted within 12 months. Newsletter details are kept until you unsubscribe.

8. How We Protect Your Information

We use reasonable technical and organisational safeguards to protect personal information from unauthorised access, loss, misuse or alteration. These include secure (HTTPS) connections, restricted access to records and confidentiality obligations for our staff. While we work hard to protect your information, no method of transmission over the internet is completely secure.

In the unlikely event of a personal data breach that affects you, we will inform you and the relevant authorities as required by law.
