- limited technical information about your use of our website, including cookies and website analytics.
Information concerning your health is considered special category personal data under UK data protection law and is handled with additional care and safeguards.
3. How We Use Your Information
We use your information where necessary to provide safe, appropriate and personalised care and to operate our practice effectively.
This may include:
- responding to enquiries and arranging consultations;
- assessing your concerns and developing an appropriate treatment plan;
- providing medical, surgical and non-surgical care;
- maintaining accurate medical records;
- communicating with you before and after treatment;
- arranging investigations, prescriptions, procedures and follow-up care where required;

- processing payments and administering our services;
- meeting our medical, professional, regulatory, insurance and legal obligations;
- managing complaints or legal claims; and
- maintaining and improving our website and services.
We process personal information only where there is an appropriate lawful basis for doing so. Health information is processed in accordance with the additional protections applying to special category data.
4. Who We May Share Your Information With
Your personal and medical information is treated confidentially.
Where necessary for your care or the operation of our practice, information may be shared with appropriate professionals and organisations, including:
- hospitals and clinics;
- doctors, nurses and other healthcare professionals involved in your care;
- laboratories, pharmacies and diagnostic services;
- your GP or other treating clinicians, where appropriate;
- medical insurers;
- professional advisers, indemnity providers and insurers;
- trusted service providers who support the secure administration and operation of our practice; and
- regulators or other authorities where disclosure is required by law.
Where third parties process information on our behalf, we expect them to maintain appropriate standards of confidentiality and data security.
We do not sell your personal information to third parties.
5. Clinical Photography
Clinical photography is an important part of plastic and aesthetic surgery and may form part of your confidential medical record. Photographs may be taken where appropriate for assessment, treatment planning, monitoring progress and documenting your care.
Any use of identifiable photographs or videos outside your confidential medical record — for example for education, presentations, publications, the DrHazLondon website, social media or promotional purposes — will be subject to appropriate consent where required.
Your decision regarding the use of photographs for these additional purposes will not affect the care you receive.
6. Marketing Communications
We may occasionally communicate with you about relevant DrHazLondon news, services or treatments where permitted by law.
Where consent is required, we will obtain this before sending marketing communications. You may unsubscribe or change your marketing preferences at any time.
7. How Long We Keep Your Information
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected and to comply with applicable medical, professional, regulatory, insurance and legal requirements.
Medical records may need to be retained for longer periods than general enquiries or website information.
When information is no longer required, it will be securely deleted, destroyed or anonymised where appropriate.
8. Protecting Your Information
We take the privacy and security of your information seriously and use appropriate safeguards to protect personal information against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, loss or destruction.
Access to confidential patient information is limited to those who require it for legitimate clinical or administrative purposes.
9. International Data Transfers
Some technology or service providers may process information outside the United Kingdom.
Where this occurs, appropriate steps are taken to ensure that your personal information is protected in accordance with UK data protection requirements.
10. Cookies
Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to help it function effectively, understand how visitors use the website and improve the online experience.
Where cookies are not essential to the operation of the website, they will be used in accordance with applicable consent requirements.
You can manage your preferences through the cookie controls on our website. Further information can be found in our Cookie Policy.
