Who we are

Mosaic Holistics is run by Julie, who provides reiki and natural therapies from her home by appointment. In this policy, “we”, “us” and “our” mean Mosaic Holistics. We are the controller of the personal information described here.

If you have any questions about this policy or how we handle your information, email us at [YOUR EMAIL] or write to us at [YOUR POSTAL ADDRESS].

Information we collect

We only collect the information we need to answer your enquiry, arrange your sessions and keep in touch if you ask us to. This may include:

  • Contact details, such as your name, email address and phone number, when you get in touch or book a session.
  • Booking details, such as your preferred days and times and the service you’re interested in.
  • Messages you send us through the contact form, by email or by phone.
  • Wellbeing information you choose to share before or during a session, such as how you’re feeling or anything Julie should be aware of.
  • Gift voucher details, such as the name of the person a voucher is for.
  • Newsletter sign-ups: your email address, if you ask to hear about specials, sales and events.
  • Website usage information collected through cookies, if you allow them. See Cookies below.

How we use your information

Our lawful bases

Under UK data protection law we must have a lawful basis for using your information. We rely on:

  • Contract, to arrange and provide the sessions you book.
  • Legitimate interests, to answer enquiries and run our business in a way you would reasonably expect.
  • Consent, for our newsletter and for non-essential cookies. You can withdraw consent at any time.
  • Legal obligation, to keep financial records.

Wellbeing information can be health data, which is a special category of information. We only use it with your explicit consent, to keep your session safe and suitable for you.

Who we share it with

We never sell your information. We only share it with trusted providers who help us run Mosaic Holistics, and only as much as they need. These include:

  • Our website host: [WEBSITE HOST]
  • Our email provider: [EMAIL PROVIDER]
  • Our newsletter provider: [NEWSLETTER PROVIDER]
  • Our analytics provider, if you accept analytics cookies: [ANALYTICS PROVIDER]

We may also share information if the law requires it. Where a provider stores information outside the UK, we make sure appropriate safeguards are in place.

How long we keep it

  • Enquiries that don’t lead to a booking: [RETENTION PERIOD].
  • Client and booking records: [RETENTION PERIOD] after your last session.
  • Financial records: as long as the law requires, usually six years.
  • Newsletter details: until you unsubscribe.
