Why do I need your data? Legal purposes for acquiring your data
I require names, address, email address, background information and date of birth in order to plan and carry out tuition and assessments. I then write an assessment report which I send to you. I store the report electronically on a password-protected computer. I am obliged legally to keep copies of all assessment forms for six years or until a child becomes 24. These are kept in a locked cabinet.
Your personal data will not be shared with any third party for marketing purposes. The reports written will be shared with schools, colleges, workplaces and universities at your request and with your consent. At your request, personal information may be removed from copies of reports sent to such institutions.

Questionnaires, email discussions, telephone calls, interviews, correspondence both written and verbal, referrals, payment arrangements or other dealings

object to, and request restriction of processing your personal data and/or your data being moved or sent anywhere you do not want it to go.

What I may need from you
I may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal data (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is a security measure to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it.
