Data handling & storage

Booking System

We use software called ‘MyPTHub’ to administer our online bookings. By booking through ‘MyPTHub’ your name, address, email, and phone-numbers, medical exercise records plus a record of the classes/programme you have booked, is stored on a system that only Joanna Diplock has access to. By booking this way you are agreeing to let us store your data in MyPTHub and send you the reminder and promotion e-mails via MyPTHub.  You may update or correct your account information at any time by logging in to your MyPTHub account and changing your settings.  You can see MyPTHub's Privacy Policy via this link: https://www.mypthub.net/legal/privacy-policy/

On booking you are also asked to agree to a list of terms and conditions.  You are asked for your consent for us to send you occasional emails telling you when new classes or workshops are coming up (through a secure permission-based email system called MailChimp). You can unsubscribe from the Mail Chimp emails at any time by using the link at the bottom of each email.  You can see Mail Chimp’s privacy policy via this link: www.mailchimp.com

​

Payment processing

​

Your payment is processed by MyPTHub which accepts most debit and credit cards.  We never store your credit card details it is always processed by third-parties. It is encrypted through the Payment Card Industry Security Standard (PCI-DSS).   We can’t see your stored card details or information. 

​

​

Client health questionnaire (PAR-Q)

​

We ask everyone who attends an online, group class or 1-2-1 class to fill in an online client health questionnaire (PAR-Q). This service is provided by MyPTHub and is secure.  

This asks you for your name, address and phone-numbers a large amount of health information.

To be able to do our job, we need to ask you information about health conditions and injuries. It is very important you give accurate and current information to us, and keep us up-to-date with your state of health.

Client Health Questionnaires (PAR-Q’s) are stored as paper copies in a locked filing cabinet. Only Joanna Diplock has access to the lockable filing cabinet and to the electronically stored copies.

On these forms we ask your permission to talk or email your physiotherapist, osteopath, consultant, doctor, or other health professional if we think this would benefit your treatment. You would be entitled to see this correspondence by copy letter if we do contact them.

Where a third party eg a solicitor or an insurance company request a copy of your records you must give written consent for Joanna Diplock to release the records.

Where the police require access to your records they will advise Joanna Diplock if your written consent has to be obtained. They will provide alternative legal authority to release your records if it’s not appropriate for Joanna Diplock to contact you.

Your relatives have no right to see your records without your written consent unless the relative holds a Power of Attorney or other legal authority for you.

​

How I use your contact information

​

When booking you agree to your email and phone number being used by The Motherhood Movement/ Herts/Beds Pilates to inform you of urgent class changes or to inform you if a catch up class has become available.  I may, from time to time, use your phone number to contact you.  If you do not wish me to contact you in this way, please inform me in person or by emailing.

Your personal data used for communication purposes may also be stored electronically on a laptop or phone.

You may, of course, decline to submit your email and phone number to us, which in some cases may mean that we are not be able to provide certain services to you.

Emergency contact information

​

Emergency Contact information is collected solely for use in an emergency, should we need to contact your next of kin or give this information to the emergency services. This is the only information that would be shared with a third party, and only in the context of an emergency.
