For the purposes of the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018, Health Hub Academy is the data controller for personal data collected through this site.
The only way we collect personal information directly from you is through our contact form.
When you complete our contact form, we collect:
We collect this information solely for the purpose of responding to your enquiry. We will only use it to reply to you and will not use it for any other purpose without your explicit consent.
The legal basis for processing this data is our legitimate interest in responding to enquiries made to us, in accordance with Article 6(1)(f) of the UK GDPR.
We retain contact form submissions for a maximum of 12 months, after which they are permanently deleted. If your enquiry requires a longer retention period we will inform you of this at the time.
We do not collect any of the following:
This site uses cookies. A cookie is a small text file placed on your device when you visit a website. Cookies help websites function correctly, remember your preferences and collect anonymous usage information.
We use the following categories of cookies:
These cookies are essential for the site to function and cannot be switched off. They do not store any personally identifiable information. They include cookies that remember your cookie consent choice.
Legal basis: Legitimate interest — these cookies are necessary for the site to operate.
We do not use Google Analytics or any other cookie-based analytics tool. Instead we use Rybitt, a privacy-first analytics platform that tracks anonymous, aggregated site usage without placing any cookies on your device and without collecting any personally identifiable information.
Because Rybitt places no cookies, it does not appear in your browser's cookie list and there is nothing to opt out of — no data that could identify you is collected.

Legal basis: Consent — advertising cookies are only placed if you accept them via our cookie consent tool.
This site contains affiliate links, primarily through the Amazon Associates programme. When you click an affiliate link, a cookie may be placed on your device by the affiliate network (for example Amazon) to track whether a purchase is made following your click. This tracking is carried out by the affiliate network, not by us.
We receive a small commission if you make a purchase through an affiliate link at no additional cost to you. All affiliate links on this site are clearly disclosed near the link.
The cookie placed when you click an affiliate link is governed by the privacy policy of the relevant affiliate network. For Amazon Associates, this is governed by Amazon's privacy policy at amazon.co.uk/privacy-notice
We do not receive any personal data about you as a result of affiliate link clicks or purchases.
Legal basis: Legitimate interest — affiliate tracking cookies are placed by the third-party affiliate network, not by us. We disclose affiliate relationships transparently on the site.
We work with a small number of third-party services to operate this site. We have listed them here with links to their own privacy policies.

We take reasonable and appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect any personal data we hold against unauthorised access, loss, alteration or disclosure.

This site contains links to external websites including NHS.uk, NIHR, NICE and affiliate partner sites such as Amazon. These external sites have their own privacy policies and we are not responsible for their content or their handling of your data. We recommend you read the privacy policy of any external site you visit.
This site participates in the Amazon Associates Programme, an affiliate advertising programme designed to provide a means for sites to earn commission by linking to Amazon. We may also participate in other affiliate programmes from time to time.
When a link on this site is an affiliate link it is disclosed clearly near the link with wording such as "affiliate link" or "we may earn a commission if you buy through this link."
Clicking an affiliate link and making a purchase does not cost you anything extra. The commission we receive comes from the retailer, not from you.
We only include affiliate links to products that are genuinely relevant to plantar fasciitis recovery. The presence of an affiliate link does not influence the informational content of this site, which is based solely on NHS and clinical sources.
This site displays advertisements provided by Google AdSense. These advertisements help fund the site and allow us to provide all content and PDF downloads free of charge.

We do not control which specific advertisements are displayed on this site. The appearance of an advertisement on this site does not constitute an endorsement of the advertised product or service.
