Lawful Basis for Processing

Depending on the circumstances, we rely on one or more of the following lawful bases under applicable data protection law:

* Contract: where processing is necessary to provide services, manage an appointment or take steps at your request before entering into a contract.
* Legitimate interests: where processing is necessary for the effective operation, security and improvement of our business and does not override your rights and interests.
* Legal obligation: where we are required to process information to comply with a legal or regulatory requirement.
* Consent: where we ask for your consent, such as for certain non-essential cookies or other activities where consent is required.

Where we rely on consent, you may withdraw your consent at any time.

4. Booking and Payment Providers

Appointments and payments may be handled through third-party booking and payment providers.

These providers may process your personal information on our behalf or, depending on the service, may process information under their own privacy policies and responsibilities.

We take reasonable steps to use reputable service providers and expect them to handle personal information in accordance with applicable data protection requirements.

5. Independent Stylists

Some stylists working from K Hair Studio operate as independent businesses.

Where an independent stylist operates as a separate business, they may act as a separate data controller for personal information they collect directly from their own clients.

Their processing of personal information will be subject to their own privacy notices and data protection responsibilities.

6. Sharing Your Information

We may share personal information with trusted third parties where necessary to operate our business and provide our services, including:

* Booking providers
* Payment processors
* Website and hosting providers
* Professional advisers
* Independent stylists, where appropriate
* Legal, regulatory or government authorities where required

We do not sell your personal information.

Where we use third-party service providers to process personal information on our behalf, we take reasonable steps to ensure that appropriate data protection and security measures are in place.

7. Cookies

Our website may use cookies and similar technologies for:

* Essential website functions
* Security
* Website analytics
* Embedded content
* Improving website performance and functionality

Where applicable, non-essential cookies will only be activated after you have been given an appropriate choice and provided consent.

You can also manage or disable cookies through your browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect how some parts of the website function.

8. How Long We Keep Information

We keep personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, or for as long as required to meet legal, regulatory, accounting or reporting obligations.

The length of time we retain information will depend on the type of information and the reason it was collected.

When personal information is no longer required, we will take reasonable steps to securely delete or anonymise it.

9. Your Rights

Depending on the circumstances and applicable data protection law, you may have the right to:

10. International Transfers

Some of our third-party service providers may process or store personal information outside the United Kingdom.

Where personal information is transferred outside the UK, we will take reasonable steps to ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place in accordance with applicable data protection law.

We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information from loss, misuse, unauthorised access, alteration or disclosure.

However, no online system or method of transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
