1. Scope
This policy applies to visitors, newsletter subscribers and people who contact Graltov. It covers information collected through the website, forms, email and ordinary server logs. It does not govern third-party sites linked from our pages. The data controller is Graltov Health Ltd, 22 St Mary Street, Cardiff CF10 1AA.
2. Information collected
We may receive an email address when a visitor joins the newsletter and a name, email address and message when someone uses the contact form. Basic technical information such as browser type, approximate location, requested page and timestamp may appear in server logs. We do not ask readers to submit sensitive personal information.
3. Lawful basis
We use consent for optional newsletter messages and non-essential cookies. We use legitimate interests for site security, basic administration and responding to enquiries. We use contractual necessity only where it is relevant to a direct request for a service. Consent can be withdrawn by contacting [email protected].
4. Retention
Newsletter details are retained until unsubscribe or twelve months after the last meaningful engagement, whichever comes first. Contact correspondence is normally retained for twenty-four months after closure. Security logs are generally retained for up to ninety days. Records needed for legal obligations may be held for the relevant statutory period.
5. Sharing
Information may be handled by hosting, email delivery, form processing and security providers acting under written instructions. We do not sell personal information. Providers receive only the information required for their task and are expected to maintain suitable safeguards.
6. International transfers
Some technology providers may process information outside the United Kingdom. Where that occurs, Graltov relies on an adequacy decision, approved contractual safeguards or another lawful transfer mechanism. Details can be requested from the contact address.
7. Your rights
Subject to legal limits, you may request access, correction, deletion, restriction, portability or objection. You may also withdraw consent for optional processing. Requests should include enough information for us to identify the relevant record and will normally receive a response within one month.
8. Cookies
Session cookies may last until a browser closes, analytics cookies may last up to thirteen months where enabled, and preference cookies may last up to twelve months. The cookie banner records a consent choice for up to twelve months. Further detail is available in the Cookie Policy.
9. Security
We use access controls, encrypted connections and limited retention to reduce avoidable exposure. No internet service can promise absolute security. If we become aware of a qualifying incident, we will follow applicable reporting and communication duties.
10. Complaints
Please contact [email protected] first so the desk can review the concern. You may also contact the Information Commissioner’s Office in the United Kingdom if you remain dissatisfied. The ICO website provides current complaint routes and guidance.
11. Children
Graltov is written for adults and does not knowingly collect information from children. If a parent or guardian believes a child has submitted information, contact the desk so it can be assessed and removed where appropriate.
12. Changes
Revision history: 1 January 2026, policy published; 9 September 2026, retention wording and contact procedure reviewed. Material changes will be shown on this page with a new date. Continued use after an update means the revised notice is available to read.
