Privacy & Cookies Notice

Healing Rooms England & Wales  (“we”) have obligations under the UK-General Data Protection Regulation (“UK-GDPR”) to ensure that all individuals whose personal information we process have been informed of why we need it, how it is used, what their rights are, to whom the information is disclosed and what safeguarding measures are in place to protect their information.

The only personal information we retain about people outside our organisation comprises email addresses and other contact information provided to us by the individual enquirers (“Enquirers”). We keep that personal information solely for two purposes – to respond to queries and for inclusion on our mailing list, if Enquirers have requested such inclusion.  The only exception would be if the Enquirer were to enter into any financial transaction with us (for example the purchase of goods) in which case we may be required to maintain a complete record of the transaction for audit purposes including any statutory requirements of Her Majesty’s Revenue & Customs.

When we respond to queries we do so to the same email or postal address from which the query was received.  Unless instructed otherwise, we will keep such addresses and contact information for six months from the date of resolution of the initial query in order to address any further matters arising. The only exception would where a financial transaction was involved in which case we may be required to maintain the Enquirers’ personal information for an extended period for statutory audit purposes. This could be for a period of up to seven years from the transaction date.

We may create and update a mailing list for Enquirers who have expressed an interest in the work of the organisation. The personal information of Enquirers would be retained for the purpose of distributing news and prayer updates, provided we had received the Enquirers’ prior consent.  Enquirers may unsubscribe at any time from receiving further news-related emails via the “Unsubscribe” link.

We do not share the personal information of Enquirers with any third parties for any reason. Enquirers’ personal information if received in paper form is maintained securely in locked cabinets in our UK head office but is more usually stored electronically on encrypted, password-protected computers.

Enquirers have the right at any time to request the deletion of their personal information.  Any request for the removal of personal information or any enquiry relating to the personal information being held about Enquirers or any complaint concerning personal information held by us should be made to the National Administrator by email at contact@healingrooms.org.uk or through the contact form on this website.
