• We do not use cookies. That is why you will not see a cookie banner on this Website.
• We do not collect personal health data through the Website. All medical information is managed securely by the clinic only.
• We only collect anonymous information to understand how people use our Website.

Your privacy matters to us more than anything else.

1. Introduction

At Prostate Cancer London, protecting your privacy is a priority. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you use our Website: www.prostatecancerlondon.com (the “Website”). We comply with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR), the Data Protection Act 2018, and other relevant laws.

2. Information We Collect Through the Website

We do not collect or store personal health information through the Website. Any medical records or sensitive data are managed securely inside the clinic only.

The Website may collect limited, non-personal data, such as:

• Technical details (IP address, browser type, operating system, device type)
• Usage information (pages visited, navigation paths, time spent)
• Anonymous tracking signals to measure website performance and marketing effectiveness

This information is not linked to you as an individual.

3. No Use of Cookies

Unlike most websites, we do not use cookies. We have made a deliberate decision not to place cookies or identifiers on your device. Instead, we rely on lightweight, privacy-friendly methods of tracking that only provide anonymous statistics.

This means:

• We cannot track you across other websites
• We cannot build a personal profile of you
• We do not store or recover personal identifiers

We believe this approach offers a better balance between understanding how our Website performs and protecting your privacy.

4. Legal Basis for Processing

Under UK GDPR, our processing of anonymous tracking data is based on our legitimate interest in understanding how our Website is used and in improving its performance. We do not rely on consent, as we do not use cookies or personal identifiers.

5. Data Retention

We only retain anonymous analytics data for as long as needed to assess trends and improve Website performance. Typically, this information is held for no more than [insert period, e.g. 12 months], after which it is deleted or aggregated.

6. How We Use Information

We use anonymous data to:

• Monitor Website performance
• Understand general visitor behaviour
• Measure the effectiveness of our online content

We do not sell, rent, or disclose information to third parties for marketing.

7. Health and Medical Data

No health or medical data is collected through this Website. If you contact us by phone, email, or in person, we will handle your information under strict medical confidentiality rules and UK data protection law.

8. Data Security

Although the Website does not collect sensitive personal data, we use appropriate technical and organisational measures to secure all systems and prevent misuse or unauthorised access.

9. Third-Party Services

We may use trusted providers for hosting and anonymous analytics. These providers receive only non-identifiable data and cannot use it for their own purposes. If we use a privacy-focused analytics provider (for example, Plausible or Matomo), it will be specified here.

10. Your Rights

Under UK GDPR, you have rights including:

• The right to access your personal data
• The right to correction or erasure
• The right to restrict or object to processing
• The right to data portability

Since the Website does not collect personal data, these rights mainly apply if you contact the clinic directly.

11. Links to Other Websites

Our Website may contain links to external websites. We are not responsible for their privacy practices and encourage you to read their privacy policies.
