How Stormont Dental Care collects, uses and protects your personal information.
Last updated: June 2026. This policy is a working template and should be reviewed by the practice and its data protection adviser before going live.
Stormont Dental Care (“we”, “us”) is a dental practice at 502 Upper Newtownards Road, Belfast, BT4 3HB. We are the data controller for the personal information described in this policy. You can contact us on 028 9065 3678 or at info@stormontdentalcare.co.uk.
We use your information to respond to enquiries, arrange and provide dental care, keep accurate records, and meet our legal and regulatory obligations. Depending on the purpose, our lawful basis is your consent, the performance of a contract, our legitimate interests, or compliance with a legal obligation. Health information is handled under the additional protections that apply to special category data.
Our website uses cookies and similar tools to help it work and to understand how it is used. With your consent, we also use analytics and advertising tools such as Google Analytics and the Meta (Facebook) Pixel, which may set cookies and collect usage data to measure and improve our marketing. You can manage cookies through your browser and through our cookie controls.
We only share your information where necessary — for example with clinicians involved in your care, trusted service providers who help us run the practice and our website, and where we are required to by law. We do not sell your personal information.
We keep dental records for the periods required by professional and legal guidelines, and other information only for as long as we need it for the purposes set out above.
You have rights over your personal information, including the right to access it, correct it, ask us to delete it, or object to or restrict certain uses. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the details above.
If you have a concern about how we handle your information, please contact us first so we can help. You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk.
