At All Pets Ltd. we take data protection very seriously. When you contact us through our website, or directly in person, we collect information that enables us to provide you with veterinary services.

How we use your information
In order to provide you with our veterinary services we need your contact details (name, address, email, phone number), records of your pet(s) and their treatments, financial transactions, and communications. We may also need to use your personal information for the prevention of fraud or for debt recovery.
Our lawful basis for processing your data
We process your personal information on the basis of the “Legitimate Interests” of All Pets, i.e. where it is necessary for our legitimate business interest (unless there is a good reason to protect your personal data which overrides those legitimate interests). This means for providing veterinary services as described above.
We also process your information on the basis of “Consent” for marketing purposes. We will ask for your consent to send marketing emails or texts and you can withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us.
We may share your information where we are required by law to do so.
Where do we store your data?
Your client records are stored in our secure, cloud-based Practice Management system.
We also keep photocopies of insurance claim details in paper form.
Data retention
