Fix My Hair Ltd ("Fix My Hair", "we", "us", "our") is committed to protecting your personal data and respecting your privacy.
This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and protect your personal information when you visit fixmyhair.co.uk, submit an enquiry, book a consultation, purchase a product, or use any of our services.
Please read this policy carefully. By using our website or services, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this policy.
Fix My Hair Ltd is the data controller for personal data collected through this website and in connection with our services.
Company name: Fix My Hair Ltd Company number: 16690689 Registered address: 20 Wenlock Road, London, England, N1 7GU Email: privacy@fixmyhair.co.uk Website: https://fixmyhair.co.uk
We are registered with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) as a data controller under the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.
Fix My Hair Ltd arranges and coordinates hair restoration care that is delivered by named GMC-registered clinicians working within CQC-registered facilities. We do not ourselves perform surgical or medical procedures.
All surgical procedures arranged through Fix My Hair are performed by CQC-registered clinics or by GMC-registered practitioners within CQC-registered facilities, who hold responsibility for clinical care under their own registration.
We collect the following categories of personal data:
Contact and identity data: Name, email address, telephone number, preferred contact method, location/preferred clinic.
Enquiry and consultation data: Details of your hair loss, hair loss pattern, treatment interests, graft estimates, and responses to our hair assessment quiz or simulator.
Special category health data (Article 9 UK GDPR): Information about your health condition, hair loss history, blood test results (where obtained through our diagnostics service), and medical history relevant to treatment planning.
Photographs of your scalp and hair: If you choose to send photographs, they are compressed on your own device and stored securely. They are used to prepare your assessment, and where treatment is being considered they are shared securely with the clinician and healthcare provider involved in your care. Photographs of your scalp are health information, so they are treated as special category data under Article 9 in exactly the same way as the rest of your health information. You are never required to send photographs to make an enquiry.
Financial data: Payment information processed via Stripe (we do not store card details, these are handled by Stripe's PCI-DSS compliant infrastructure). Order information for product purchases.
Technical and usage data: IP address, browser type, device type, pages visited, time spent on pages, referral source, and interaction data collected via Google Analytics 4 (GA4) and Microsoft Clarity (subject to your cookie consent).
Communications data: Records of your communications with us by email, phone, or WhatsApp.
We collect personal data through:
We process your personal data on the following legal bases under Article 6 UK GDPR:
Consent (Article 6(1)(a)): For marketing communications, analytics cookies, and non-essential tracking technologies, where you have given explicit, active consent.
Contract (Article 6(1)(b)): For processing necessary to fulfil a product order, consultation booking, or service agreement with you.
Legitimate interests (Article 6(1)(f)): For responding to enquiries, improving our services, and maintaining records of communications. Where we rely on legitimate interests we balance them against your rights, and you can object at any time by contacting privacy@fixmyhair.co.uk.
Legal obligation (Article 6(1)(c)): Where processing is required by law, including financial record-keeping and fraud prevention.
Special category health data (Article 9 UK GDPR): We process health data (including hair loss information and blood test results) on the basis of:
We do not rely on Article 9(2)(h) for our own processing. That condition concerns the provision of health or social care, and Fix My Hair Ltd coordinates your care rather than providing it. The clinician and the healthcare provider involved in your treatment decide their own legal bases for their own clinical records, as separate controllers.
We never process special category health data on the basis of legitimate interests alone.
We use your personal data to:
We never sell your personal data to third parties.
We will only send you marketing emails, SMS, or WhatsApp messages if you have explicitly opted in to receive them.
You may withdraw consent for marketing at any time by:
Withdrawing marketing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal.
We share your personal data only where necessary:
CQC-registered clinics and surgeons: We share relevant consultation and health data with the CQC-registered clinic or GMC-registered surgeon fulfilling your procedure. This sharing is necessary for the provision of your treatment.
Lab partner: Blood test samples and results are processed by our laboratory partner. Your data is shared only as necessary for analysis and reporting.
Pharmacy partner: For medication prescriptions, relevant health and contact data is shared with our registered UK pharmacy partner for prescription fulfilment.
EmailJS: Used to send automated confirmation emails. Data passes through EmailJS's infrastructure under appropriate data processing agreements.
Google (GA4): Website usage data is collected via Google Analytics 4 subject to your cookie consent. Google processes this data in accordance with its Privacy Policy and UK GDPR transfer safeguards.
Microsoft (Clarity): Session recording and heatmap data is collected via Microsoft Clarity subject to your cookie consent.
Stripe: Payment processing for product orders. Stripe is PCI-DSS compliant and processes payment data under its own privacy policy and data processing agreement.
Supabase: Our patient record system. Enquiry details, assessment answers and any photographs you send are stored here.
Cloudflare: Hosts this website and provides security and bot protection (including Turnstile on our forms).
Resend: Sends internal notifications to our team when an enquiry arrives.
Calendly: Powers the booking calendar where you choose an appointment time. It loads only after you have sent us your details, and receives your name and email so you do not have to type them again.
Twilio: Sends SMS and WhatsApp messages where you have asked us to contact you that way.
We put a written data processing agreement in place with each processor we engage. If you want to know the status of a specific processor, ask us at privacy@fixmyhair.co.uk.
Some of our service providers (including Google and Microsoft) may transfer data outside the UK. Where this occurs, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, including:
We retain your personal data for the following periods:
| Data type | Retention period |
|---|---|
| Enquiries that do not become treatment | 12 months from last contact |
| Patient records, where you go on to be treated | 7 years from last contact |
| Medical/health records | 8 years from last treatment (NHS standard) |
| Blood test results | 8 years |
| Product purchase records | 7 years (legal/financial requirement) |
| Marketing consent records | Until consent withdrawn + 3 years |
| Cookie consent records | 3 years |
| Website analytics data | 26 months (GA4 default) |
After these periods, data is securely deleted or anonymised.
The two enquiry periods above are the reason our forms tell you that enquiry data is kept for 12 months unless you become a patient. If your enquiry does not lead to treatment, 12 months is the whole of it. If it does, your record becomes a patient record and the longer period applies, because we are then keeping the history of your care.
You have the following rights regarding your personal data:
Right of access: Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you. Right to rectification: Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data. Right to erasure: Request deletion of your data where no longer necessary. Right to restriction: Request we limit processing of your data. Right to portability: Receive your data in a structured, machine-readable format. Right to object: Object to processing based on legitimate interests. Right to withdraw consent: Withdraw consent at any time where processing is consent-based. Rights regarding automated decision-making: We do not make solely automated decisions with legal or significant effects.
