Privacy Policy



 

Westwood 2015 Ltd (The Wellness Lounge) – Privacy Notice

 

At The Wellness Lounge, your privacy, comfort, and trust mean everything to us. Because we work closely with our local community to tackle isolation and loneliness, we want to be completely transparent about how we look after your information.

This notice explains what information we collect, how we use it, and how we keep it safe.

 

1. What Information We Collect

 

To help you settle in and stay safe, we collect a small amount of necessary information when you join us, including:

• Your name, address, and phone number so we can stay in touch.

• An emergency contact (such as a family member, friend, or carer) just in case you ever feel unwell while spending time with us.

• Any basic health, mobility, or support notes you choose to share, helping our team tailor our activities safely to your needs.

 

2. How We Use and Protect Your Information

 

We use your details strictly to run our services and keep you safe. We promise that:

• Your information is stored securely on our protected charity databases (ClubRight and the Paxton door access system).

• Only authorized staff and volunteers who are directly supporting you can see your details.

• We never sell your data or share your personal phone number or address with outside organisations without your explicit permission, unless we are legally required to do so for your immediate safety (safeguarding).

 

3. How Long We Keep Your Data

 

We only keep your information for as long as you remain a part of our community. If you ever choose to leave our service, your records will be securely and permanently deleted from our digital systems or physically shredded within [insert timeframe, e.g., 6 months].

 

4. Your Legal Rights

 

Under UK data protection law, you have full control over your data. You have the right to:

• Ask us for a copy of the information we hold about you.

• Ask us to correct any mistakes (like a change of phone number).

• Ask us to delete your information entirely if you decide to leave our services.

If you have any questions about your privacy, or if you want to update your details, please chat informally with any member of our team.
