At The Beautique by Sumita, your privacy, confidence and trust are important to us. We are committed to handling your personal information responsibly and transparently in accordance with applicable UK data protection legislation, including the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store and protect your information when you visit our website, make an enquiry, book a treatment or use our services.

1. Who We Are

The Beautique by Sumita provides professional skincare, advanced facial treatments and holistic wellbeing experiences, including The Ojas Method™.

The Beautique is the trading name of Angels Inc Ltd, which is the data controller responsible for personal information collected through our website and services.

Website: www.thebeautique.co.uk

Location: Pavilion, Fulham, London

Privacy enquiries: sam@thebeautique.co.uk

2. Information We Collect

Depending on how you interact with us, we may collect:

• Your name, email address and telephone number.

• Appointment enquiries, bookings and treatment history.

• Skin concerns, treatment goals and relevant health information voluntarily provided during consultations.

• Consultation forms and treatment records.

• Payment and transaction information.

• Photographs or testimonials where you have provided appropriate permission.

• Marketing preferences and communication history.

• Website usage and cookie information.

We only seek information relevant to providing our services, managing our business and communicating with you.

3. How We Use Your Information

We may use your information to:

• Respond to enquiries and consultation requests.

• Assess treatment suitability and provide personalised skincare guidance.

• Arrange appointments and manage treatment records.

• Process payments and deposits.

• Communicate important information about appointments and services.

• Maintain appropriate business and financial records.

• Send promotional communications where permitted by law.

• Improve our website and services.

We process personal information only where we have an appropriate lawful basis, which may include consent, contractual necessity, legitimate interests or compliance with legal obligations.

Where we process health-related information, we also identify an applicable additional condition under UK data protection law, such as explicit consent where appropriate.

4. Consultation and Health Information

During consultations, we may request information about your skin, relevant health conditions, allergies, medications or previous treatments.

This helps us assess treatment suitability and make informed professional recommendations.

Where we rely on explicit consent to process sensitive health information, you may withdraw that consent by contacting us. Withdrawal does not affect processing already carried out lawfully, and some information may need to be retained where another lawful basis applies.

5. How Your Information Is Stored

We use selected third-party services to help manage our website and business operations, including:

• Google Forms for online consultation enquiries.

• Envision for client and treatment records.

• Squarespace for our website and online enquiries.

• Square for applicable payment and deposit transactions.

These providers may process personal information on our behalf or as independent controllers, depending on the service.

We take reasonable steps to protect personal information against unauthorised access, loss, misuse or disclosure.

6. Marketing Communications

We may contact you about new treatments, skincare products, events, special offers and wellbeing experiences by email, text message or WhatsApp where we have the appropriate permission or another lawful basis permitted under applicable marketing rules.

Marketing preferences are kept separate from treatment consent.

You may opt out of promotional communications at any time by using an unsubscribe option where provided or contacting us directly.

Opting out of marketing will not prevent us from sending necessary appointment or service-related communications.

7. Photographs and Testimonials

We may invite clients to share photographs, treatment experiences or testimonials.

We will obtain appropriate permission before using identifiable client photographs or testimonials for promotional purposes.

You may contact us to request withdrawal of permission for future use, subject to applicable legal considerations.

8. Sharing Your Information

We do not sell your personal information.

We may share relevant information with trusted service providers where necessary to operate our business, manage bookings, process payments or provide website services.

We may also disclose information where required by law.

Where information is transferred outside the UK, we will ensure that appropriate legal safeguards or other permitted transfer arrangements apply.

9. How Long We Keep Your Information

We retain client information, including consultation forms, treatment histories and relevant health information, for as long as reasonably necessary for ongoing client care, treatment safety, business administration, insurance purposes and applicable legal obligations.

Clients may request the deletion of their personal information by contacting us at sam@thebeautique.co.uk.

All deletion requests will be reviewed in accordance with applicable data protection legislation. Certain records may need to be retained where there is a lawful reason or obligation to do so.

We periodically review the information we hold and update client communication preferences where appropriate. Clients may be removed from marketing communications while their treatment and consultation records are securely retained for ongoing client care, treatment safety, insurance purposes and applicable legal obligations.
