When an individual discloses personal information about themselves verbally, or in writing, they consent to our use of the information for physiotherapy purposes. This information is held and used in compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) 2018 (see Confidentiality and Data Protection Policy). Personal information is not disclosed to any third party without obtaining your prior consent, unless we are required to do so by the referral source (as agreed between the referral source and individual being referred), or by law.
An individual under the care of Therapy First Physiotherapy has the right under the GDPR 2018 to ask us to provide them with the information we hold about them and to have any inaccuracies corrected.

Any fee issued must be paid within 3 months of the issue date but can be disputed by the requesting individual. An appeal process then follows in accordance with the Information Commissioner’s Office. Once any fees are received, the information is gathered and assessed as to whether personal data exemption may apply (Information Commissioner’s Office and the GDPR 2018), whether the individual’s legal rights may be affected, or any other third parties may need to be informed (e.g. the referring insurance intermediary) Requests must be dealt with by Therapy First Physiotherapy within 28 days from receipt of the request.
