Galactic Goddess of Healing respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal information.
This Privacy Policy explains how personal information is collected, used, stored and protected when you visit this website, contact Galactic Goddess of Healing, subscribe to communications, make a booking or receive a service.
For the purposes of UK data protection law, Tatiana, trading as Galactic Goddess of Healing, is the data controller responsible for your personal information.

Payment card and PayPal account information is processed by the relevant payment provider and is not directly stored by this website.
2. Health and Wellbeing Information
Due to the nature of the services provided by Galactic Goddess of Healing, you may choose to provide information relating to your physical health, mental health, wellbeing, medical conditions or other personal circumstances, particularly when taking part in an individual 1:1 session.
Health information is considered special category personal data under UK data protection law and receives additional protection.
Galactic Goddess of Healing aims to collect and retain only information reasonably necessary to provide the service you have requested.
For group healing and activation sessions, handwritten session notes may contain the first names of participants but do not ordinarily contain personal, health or medical information about individual participants.
For 1:1 sessions, handwritten notes may be made about the session, including information you choose to provide that is relevant to the service. These records are stored securely in a locked, fire-resistant box accessible only by Tatiana.
Where health information is recorded, it will only be processed where there is an appropriate lawful basis under UK data protection law and an applicable condition permitting the processing of special category personal data.
Where explicit consent is relied upon for the processing of health information, you may withdraw that consent, although this will not affect processing that took place before consent was withdrawn.
If the way health or wellbeing information is collected or used changes in the future, the relevant privacy procedures and this Privacy Policy will be reviewed.

Personal information may be used to:
- Respond to enquiries
- Arrange and manage appointments
- Provide services you have requested
- Communicate with you regarding a booking or service
- Process and administer payments

We will not use your information for purposes that are incompatible with those described in this policy unless permitted or required by law.
4. Lawful Bases for Processing
Under UK data protection law, there must be a lawful basis for processing your personal information.
Depending on the circumstances, Galactic Goddess of Healing may rely upon:
Contract: where processing is necessary to provide a service you have requested or to take steps at your request before providing that service.
Consent: where you have actively agreed to a particular use of your information, such as receiving email marketing.
Legitimate interests: where processing is reasonably necessary for operating, administering or protecting the business and those interests do not override your rights and freedoms.
Legal obligation: where information must be processed or retained to comply with a legal requirement.
Where special category information, such as information concerning health, is processed, an appropriate additional condition under UK data protection law will also be identified and applied.
5. Bookings and Calendly
Galactic Goddess of Healing uses Calendly to manage appointments and bookings.
When you make a booking, information you provide through Calendly will be processed by Calendly and made available to Galactic Goddess of Healing for the purposes of arranging and providing your appointment.
Calendly processes information in accordance with its own privacy terms and may use other service providers to deliver its services.
6. Payments and PayPal
Payments associated with bookings are currently processed through PayPal via the Calendly booking process.
PayPal processes payment information in accordance with its own privacy policy and terms.
Galactic Goddess of Healing does not directly receive or store your full payment card details or PayPal login credentials.
Information relating to a transaction, such as your name, transaction status and payment information necessary to administer your booking, may be received and retained as part of normal business and accounting records.
7. Online Sessions, Zoom and Recordings
Online sessions may be provided using Zoom.
Information required to create or participate in a meeting may therefore be processed by Zoom in accordance with its own privacy practices.
Where a client requests a recording of a 1:1 session for personal replay, a recording may be created using Zoom.
The recording may temporarily be stored on Zoom’s cloud services or on the computer used to conduct the session before being transferred to Google Drive.
Temporary copies held in Zoom or on the local computer are normally deleted within a few days after transfer and confirmation that the client has been able to access the recording.
Recordings will only be made where appropriate and with the knowledge of the participant.
8. Google Drive
Where a client requests a copy of a session recording, Google Drive may be used temporarily to provide the recording to that client.
The client will be provided with access so that they can download their recording.
Recordings stored on Google Drive are retained for a maximum of one month and are then deleted.
Clients are responsible for the security and storage of recordings after they have downloaded their copy.
9. Email Marketing and Aweber
Galactic Goddess of Healing uses Aweber to manage newsletters and email marketing.
Where you choose to subscribe, information such as your name, email address, subscription status and interactions with marketing emails may be processed through Aweber.
Marketing communications will only be sent where there is an appropriate lawful basis to do so.
You can unsubscribe at any time using the unsubscribe link contained within marketing emails.
Unsubscribing from marketing does not prevent necessary communications relating to an appointment, purchase or service you have requested.
