We handle your information responsibly, using it solely for your beauty service requirements and essential business operations.
3. Skin and Allergy Information
Your skin type details, allergy information, and product sensitivities are stored securely and treated as highly confidential. We maintain these records to ensure safe product selection and appropriate treatment approaches.
Skin and allergy information is accessed only by our beauty team and is stored on secure systems with restricted access. We maintain this information for 2 years after your last appointment.

8. Third-Party Data Sharing
We may share your information with trusted third parties only when necessary to deliver our services, such as payment processors for transaction handling, and product suppliers for allergy-specific requirements.
All third-party providers are bound by strict data protection agreements compliant with UK GDPR requirements. We never sell your personal information or beauty preferences to other companies.
