Where any information you provide could be considered health-related or sensitive, we will only use it for the purpose for which you provided it, such as generating educational quiz results or sending relevant content.
Health data can fall within “special category data” under UK GDPR, which requires extra protection and an appropriate legal basis and condition for processing.

4. Our lawful basis for using your personal data
Under UK data protection law, we must have a lawful basis for using your personal data. The ICO explains that at least one lawful basis must apply whenever personal data is handled.
We rely on the following lawful bases:
Contract
We use your data where necessary to provide products or services you have requested, such as processing your order, delivering a digital guide, or responding to a purchase-related enquiry.
Consent
We may rely on your consent where you sign up to receive marketing emails, opt into a lead magnet, accept certain cookies, or provide information for a specific purpose.
You can withdraw your consent at any time.
Legitimate interests
We may use your data where it is necessary for our legitimate business interests, provided your rights and interests do not override those interests.
This may include:
- Improving our website and services
- Understanding how users interact with our content
- Responding to enquiries
- Preventing fraud or misuse
- Keeping records of customer communications
- Sending relevant marketing to existing customers where permitted by law
The ICO notes that legitimate interests may be appropriate where people would reasonably expect the use of their data and the impact on privacy is minimal.
Legal obligation
We may use your data where necessary to comply with legal obligations, such as tax, accounting, consumer protection, or regulatory requirements.
5. Email marketing
If you sign up for our newsletter, download a free guide, join a waitlist, or otherwise opt in to receive emails from us, we may send you educational content, updates, offers, and marketing communications.
You can unsubscribe at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link in our emails or contacting us directly.
We may also contact previous customers about similar products or services where permitted by law. The ICO explains that marketing emails to individuals generally require specific consent, although there is a limited “soft opt-in” exception for previous customers where certain requirements are met.
We will not sell your email address to third parties.
6. Quizzes and educational results
If you complete a quiz on our website, we may use your answers to provide educational results, suggestions, or follow-up content.
Quiz results are for general informational and educational purposes only. They are not medical advice, diagnosis, treatment, or a substitute for advice from a qualified healthcare professional.
We may also use aggregated or anonymised quiz data to improve our content, products, and services.
7. Cookies and analytics
Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to:
- Make the website work properly

The ICO provides specific guidance on privacy notices and cookies, including the need to explain how cookies and similar technologies are used.

We may share your personal data with trusted third-party service providers who help us operate our website and business, including:

- Email marketing platforms
- Website hosting providers
- Analytics providers

We take reasonable steps to protect your personal data from loss, misuse, unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction.
However, no website, email system, or online service can be guaranteed to be completely secure. You use our website and services at your own risk.
