This privacy policy sets out how Sonria Dental Clinic Limited uses and protects any information that you give when you use this website.
The Practice is committed to complying with the Data Protection Act 1998, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and other standards.
The Practice only keeps relevant information about employees for the purposes of employment, and about patients to provide them with safe and appropriate dental care.
The person responsible for Data Protection is the Practice Manager: Ms Adriana Osorio
Our legal basis for processing data is:
“9(2)(h) – Processing is necessary for the purposes of preventative or occupational medicine, for assessing the working capacity of the employee, medical diagnosis, the provision of health or social care or treatment or management of health or social care systems and services on the basis of Union or Member State law or a contract with a health professional.”
Hard copy and computerised records are stored, reviewed and updated securely and confidentially. Records are destroyed when no longer required. Confidential information is only seen by personnel who need to see it and the team are trained on our policies and procedures to keep patient information confidential.

In all cases only relevant data is shared. In very limited cases, such as for identification purposes, or if required by law, information may have to be shared with a party not involved in the patient’s health care. In all other cases, information is never disclosed to such a third party without the patient’s written authority.
All confidential information is sent via secure methods. Electronic communications and stored data are encrypted. All computerised clinical records are backed up and encrypted copies are kept off-site. No information or comments about patients are posted on social networking or blogging sites. Criminal record check information is kept securely in a lockable, non-portable storage cabinet with access strictly controlled and limited to persons who need to have access to this information in the course of their duties.
The Practice has appropriate procedures to ensure personal data breaches are detected, reported and investigated effectively, including procedures to assess and then report any breaches to the Information Commissioner’s Office where the individual is likely to suffer some form of damage, e.g., through identity theft or confidentiality breach.
The Practice will report serious data breaches to the ICO within 24 hours of becoming aware of the essential facts. The Practice will keep a log of all personal data breaches and record the basic facts, effects of the breach and remedial action taken.
Patients and team members can have access to view the original of their records free of charge. Copies of patient or team member records are provided following a written request to the Practice Manager, Ms Adriana Osorio. The requested copies will be provided within 40 days on receipt of request.
An employee or a patient may challenge information held on record and, following investigation, should the information be inaccurate the Practice will correct the records and inform person of the change in writing.
When the request for information is about the personal data of a child, the Practice will consider if the child is mature enough to understand their rights. If they do, then the Practice will consider responding directly to the child rather than the parent. If it is decided that the child is not mature enough to understand their rights, and there is some doubt about parental responsibility, proof of identity and evidence of parental responsibility will be requested. The Practice will update its privacy notice to ensure its gives information in a language that can be understood by a child on any processing of children’s personal data.
