We will only use your personal data when the law allows us to. Most commonly, we will use your personal data in the following circumstances:

3. Where processing is necessary for medical diagnosis, the provision of health or social care or treatment.
4. Where we need to comply with a legal or regulatory obligation.
   Where we use a Special Category of data, including Medical Data, I am required to confirm an additional lawful basis (to that set out above) for the processing of such data which will most commonly include the following circumstances:
   • Provision of Direct Medical Care and administrative processes.
   • Purposes other than direct care (Quality improvement, audit, research, monitoring). When your personal information is used for secondary use this will be limited and deidentified so that the process is confidential.
   • Safeguarding of vulnerable adults and children.

Generally, we do not rely on consent as a legal basis for processing your personal data other than in relation to sending third party direct marketing communications to you via email, text message or postage. You have the right to withdraw consent to marketing at any time by contacting us at [email protected].

In addition to the data protection laws which I adhere to, we also respect The Common Law Duty of Confidentiality, which prohibits use and disclosure of information, provided in confidence unless there is a statutory requirement or court order to do so. Such information may be disclosed only for purposes that the data subject has been informed about and has consented to, provided also that there are no statutory restrictions on disclosure. This duty will only be overridden if Dr McGreevy can justify disclosure as being in the public interest, for example, to protect the vital interests of the data subjects or another person, or for the prevention or detection of a serious crime. Your records will not be disclosed to any third party not involved in the provision of services (other than your registered GP or if required for the purposes of improving medical care and services (i.e. the RQIA) between us unless you expressly consent to me doing so (i.e. for continuity of care). We may also share details with insurers where you consent/request me to do so.
Purposes for which we will use your personal data we have set out below, in a table format, a description of all the ways we plan to use your personal data, and which of the legal bases I rely on to do so. We have identified what our legitimate interests are where appropriate.

Note that we may process your personal data for more than one lawful ground depending on the specific purpose for which we are using your data. Please contact us if you need details about the specific legal ground I am relying on to process your personal data where more than one ground has been set out in the table below.

Marketing
We strive to provide you with choices regarding certain personal data uses, particularly around marketing and advertising. I have established the following personal data control mechanisms:
• Promotional offers from us: We may use your Identity, Contact, Technical, Usage and Profile Data to form a view on what we think you may want or need, or what may be of interest to you. This is how we decide which products, services and offers may be relevant for you (we call this marketing).
• You will receive marketing communications from me if you have requested information from us or received services from us or if you provided me with your details when signed up or registered in the application or website and, in each case, you have not opted out of receiving that marketing.
• Third-party marketing: I will get your express opt-in consent before we share your personal data with any third party outside Lecale Clinic for marketing purposes.
• Opting out: You can ask us or third parties to stop sending you marketing messages at any time by amending your preferences in your user account (via the website or application) and checking or unchecking relevant boxes to adjust your marketing preferences or by following the opt-out links on any marketing message sent to you or by contacting me at any time. Where you opt out of receiving these marketing messages, this will not apply to personal data provided to me as a result of using the services, requesting services, ordering prescriptions, or providing feedback or surveys.

Change of purpose and other lawful disclosures:
We will only use your personal data for the purposes for which it was collected, unless we reasonably consider that we need to use it for an alternative reason and that reason is compatible with the original purpose. If you wish to get an explanation as to how the processing for the new purpose is compatible with the original purpose, please contact us at [email protected]. If we need to use your personal data for an unrelated purpose, we will notify you and we will explain the legal basis which allows us to do so.

We may also have to make available information in response to requests from the General Medical Council (GMC) or Regulation and Quality Improvement Authority (RQIA). We will always identify a valid basis for disclosure of data.

What I may need from you

LAWFUL BASIS
Legitimate Interest means the interest of my business in conducting and managing my business to enable me to give you the best service/product and the best and most secure experience. I make sure I consider and balance any potential impact on you (both positive and negative) and your rights before I process your personal data for my legitimate interests.
I do not use your personal data for activities where my interests are overridden by the impact on you (unless I have your consent or are otherwise required or permitted to by law).

For compliance with a legal obligation means the processing of data is required by me to comply with my legal obligations for instance, allowing the Regulation and Quality
Improvement Authority (RQIA)to audit and review Lecale Clinic services.

YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS
You have the right to:
Request access to your personal data (commonly known as a “data subject access
request”). This enables you to receive a copy of the personal data I hold about you and to check that I am lawfully processing it.

Request correction of the personal data that we hold about you. This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate data we hold about you corrected, though we may need to verify the accuracy of the new data you provide to us. Please note that Dr McGreevy may object to amending your health records that may be held by us in the interests of maintaining the integrity of this data and benefitting your healthcare.

Request erasure of your personal data. This enables you to ask me to delete or remove personal data where there is no good reason for me continuing to process it. You also have the right to ask us to delete or remove your personal data where you have successfully exercised your right to object to processing (see below), where we may have processed your information unlawfully or where we are required to erase your personal data to comply with local law. Note, however, that we may not always be able to comply with your request of erasure for specific legal reasons which will be notified to you, if applicable, at the time of your request.

Object to processing of your personal data where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground as you feel it impacts on your fundamental rights and freedoms. You also have the right to object where we are processing your personal data for direct marketing purposes. In some cases, we may demonstrate that we have compelling legitimate grounds to process your information which override your rights and freedoms.

Request restriction of processing of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of your personal data in the following scenarios: (a) if you want us to establish the data’s accuracy; (b) where our use of the data is unlawful but you do not want me to erase it; (c) where you need us to hold the data even if we no longer require it as you need it to establish, exercise or defend legal claims; or (d) you have objected to our use of your data but we need to verify whether we have overriding legitimate grounds to use it.

Withdraw consent at any time where we are relying on consent to process your personal data. However, this will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdraw your consent. If you withdraw your consent, I may not be able to provide certain products or services to you. I will advise you if this is the case at the time you withdraw your consent.
