Who am I?

I am Fionn Leitch, the founder of Wild Power Alchemy a certified Reiki Teacher, Shamanic Practitioner, and Family Constellation Therapist, qualified and insured to deliver a range of alternative and holistic therapies to support people in taking charge of their wellbeing. 

 

Your privacy and the protection of your personal data is important to me.

 

What does this Privacy Policy cover?

The purpose of this policy is to explain what types of information I collect from you, how I use it and how I securely store your personal information as well as any reasons I may need to disclose your personal data to others.  You can request further information at any time about what personal information I am holding and how it is being used; you can ask for electronic copies of your personal information to be sent to you; and you can request that we erase your personal data.

 

This policy is subject to change, so please check the website on a regular basis.

 

What personal data do I collect and why do I use it?

Data protection laws state that I am only able to process personal data if I have valid reasons to do so.

I receive information about you from you when you decide you’d like to work with me (or if you contact me to potentially work together).

 

The personal data that I may collect from you includes some or all of the following personal data (this may vary depending on the services you access):  Your Name, Date of birth, Gender, Address, Email Address, Telephone number, occupation, mental health history, any physical issues (that might, for example, affect how you receive a treatment such a Reiki or Shamanic Drumming), and any other pertinent information which might impact your therapy experience.

 

Under the GDPR, I must always have a lawful basis for using personal data. This may be because the data is necessary for my performance of a contract with you, because you have consented to my use of your personal data, or because it is in my legitimate business interests to use it. Your personal data may be used for one of the following purposes:

• Supplying my products or services to you. Your personal details are required in order for me to enter into a contract with you.

• Communicating with you. This may include responding to emails via the contact form on my website, via social media or via calls from you.

• Supplying you with information by email that you have opted-in to (you may unsubscribe or opt-out at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link in the footer of all my emails).

 

With your permission and/or where permitted by law, I may also use your personal data for marketing purposes, which may include contacting you by email with information, news, and offers on my products or services. You will not be sent any unlawful marketing or spam. I will always work to fully protect your rights and comply with my obligations under the GDPR and the Privacy and Electronic Communications (EC Directive) Regulations 2003, and you will always have the opportunity to opt-out.

​

I may also contact you to collect testimonials, feedback, stories/photos to share and educate my wider community with your express consent to share.

 

I use information about you to support you during your experience.

 

Mailing list

I have a mailing list, which I use to send you news and information about events, workshops and retreats. You can sign up to the mailing list from my website. I will only send you emails from the mailing list if you choose to receive these messages. If you wish to change your email preferences or unsubscribe from the mailing list, you can do so by clicking on the “update preferences” or “unsubscribe” links in any newsletter we send you, or by contacting us using the methods described below.

 

How Long Will I Keep Your Personal Data?

I will retain your personal information for as long as necessary to provide the Services you have requested and retain your data only for as long as necessary in accordance with applicable laws.

 

Your data will only be retained for as long as necessary for the purposes for which it was required, including our legal, accounting and regulatory requirements. I am required to keep basic information for these purposes for a period of six years after you cease being a customer.

 

Who will I share your personal information with?

I will not share any of your personal data with any third parties for any purpose, subject to one important exception.

Accessing and updating your data

Please let me know if your information (email address etc) has changed so that I can ensure my records are up to date.

 

If you want to know what personal data I have about you, you can ask me for details of that personal data and for a copy of it (where any such personal data is held). This is known as a “subject access request”.

 

All subject access requests should be made in writing and sent to info@wildppoweralchemy.love.

 

There is not normally any charge for a subject access request. If your request is ‘manifestly unfounded or excessive’ (for example, if you make repetitive requests) a fee may be charged to cover my administrative costs in responding.

 

I will respond to your subject access request within seven working days and, in any case, not more than two weeks of receiving it. Normally, I aim to provide a complete response, including a copy of your personal data within that time. In some cases, however, particularly if your request is more complex, more time may be required up to a maximum of one month from the date I receive your request. You will be kept fully informed of my progress.
