Privacy Policy
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is a new law about the way personal data is processed in the UK. It applies to everyone who processes data as part of their business, and requires transparency about how your information is processed.
“Trust Me I’m a Dietitian” is committed to ensuring that your privacy is protected. Should you provide information by which you can be identified when using my services, you can be assured that it will only be used in accordance with this privacy policy.
This privacy policy sets out how “Trust Me I’m a Dietitian” uses and protects any personal information that you provide.
Under GDPR, you have the right to be forgotten, which means that you can ask for your information held about you to be deleted.
