Consent for promotional or marketing communication is taken separately wherever required.

You may withdraw your consent at any time by writing to deepta@beyondkilosandinches.com. Withdrawal of consent will not affect any processing already carried out lawfully before the withdrawal, but it may affect the ability to continue services that depend on the relevant data.

6. Health-related information

Some services require you to voluntarily share health-related information so that suitable nutrition or wellness guidance can be provided. Such information is used only for consultation, support, follow-up, and service delivery connected to the requested engagement, unless otherwise required by law.

The services are intended to support nutrition and wellness guidance. Information shared through the website, forms, messages, or consultation process is not a substitute for emergency care, diagnosis, or treatment by a qualified medical professional.

7. Accuracy of information

You are requested to provide accurate, complete, and updated information relevant to your consultation. If any information changes, you may inform us so that records can be updated.

8. Data sharing

  • With team members or support personnel who require limited access for service delivery or administration
  • Where disclosure is required by applicable law, lawful request, court order, or regulatory requirement
  • Where necessary to protect legal rights, respond to fraud, or address a security incident

Any such sharing is limited to what is reasonably necessary for the relevant purpose.

9. Data retention and deletion

Personal data is retained only for as long as it is reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, for follow-up connected to the service, or for compliance with applicable legal, tax, accounting, dispute-resolution, or record-keeping obligations.

As a general approach:

  • Website enquiry data may be retained for a limited period needed to respond and follow up
  • Client consultation and intake data may be retained during the active service relationship and for a reasonable period afterwards for continuity, support, record management, and legal compliance

Where consent is withdrawn and there is no legal requirement to retain the data, the data will be deleted in accordance with applicable law.

10. Data security

Reasonable security measures are used to protect personal data against unauthorized access, misuse, alteration, disclosure, or loss. These measures may include access controls, password protection, restricted sharing, secure cloud tools, device security, and administrative safeguards.

While reasonable efforts are made to protect personal data, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure.
