AP Skin Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how AP Skin collects, uses, stores and protects personal information when you enquire, join the waiting list, book an appointment, complete a consultation, receive treatment, or communicate with AP Skin online.
Who is responsible for your information
AP Skin, operated by Arianna Paduraru, is responsible for the personal information collected through this website, WhatsApp, Instagram direct messages, email, phone, waiting-list forms, booking forms and in-clinic consultations. AP Skin can be contacted at Arianna@apskin.ie or by phone/WhatsApp at +353 85 205 4540.
Information AP Skin may collect
AP Skin may collect your name, email address, phone number, appointment preferences, treatment interests, waiting-list details, skin concerns, consultation notes, consent records, treatment history, patch-test or suitability information, aftercare notes, photographs where consent is given, payment or deposit status, and correspondence through email, phone, WhatsApp, Instagram or the website.
Health, consultation and treatment-suitability details
Because aesthetic and skin treatments require safe suitability checks, AP Skin may ask about medication, allergies, pregnancy or breastfeeding, skin conditions, recent procedures, active skincare ingredients, sun exposure, healing history, medical conditions and other information relevant to your treatment. This information is used to decide whether a treatment is appropriate, whether the treatment should be adapted, postponed or declined, and what aftercare advice should be provided.
How your information is used
Your information is used to manage enquiries and bookings, operate the waiting list, contact you about availability, confirm or amend appointments, prepare for your consultation, provide safe and personalised treatment advice, maintain accurate client records, handle aftercare, meet insurance and professional obligations, improve the client experience, and respond to legal or regulatory requirements where necessary.
Waiting list and marketing contact
If you join the waiting list, AP Skin may contact you about launch availability, appointment openings, treatment information and relevant AP Skin updates. You can ask to be removed from the waiting list or to stop receiving non-essential updates at any time by contacting AP Skin. Essential appointment, safety and aftercare messages may still be sent where they relate to a booking or treatment.
Website forms, WhatsApp, Instagram and email
When you use the website forms or contact AP Skin through third-party platforms such as WhatsApp, Instagram, email providers or hosting tools, your information may also be processed by those service providers according to their own privacy terms. AP Skin uses these tools to receive enquiries, respond to clients and manage appointments, but does not sell your personal information.
Sharing information
AP Skin does not sell personal information. Information may be shared only where reasonably necessary with trusted service providers such as website hosting, form handling, email, booking, messaging, payment, accounting or professional support providers; where required by law; where needed for insurance, safeguarding, legal or professional obligations; or where you have given consent.
How long information is kept
AP Skin keeps information only for as long as it is needed for the purpose it was collected, including enquiry follow-up, appointment management, treatment records, insurance, accounting, legal and professional obligations. Some clinical, consent, treatment and transaction records may need to be retained for longer than general marketing or waiting-list information.
Security
AP Skin takes reasonable steps to keep client information secure, including limiting access to client details, using appropriate digital tools, and avoiding unnecessary sharing of personal or health information. No online system is completely risk-free, so clients should avoid sending highly sensitive information through public or unsecured channels unless requested for treatment-suitability purposes.
Your rights
You may ask to access, correct, update or delete your personal information where legally possible. You may also ask AP Skin to stop using your details for waiting-list or marketing contact. Some information may need to be retained where AP Skin has legitimate, legal, insurance, accounting or professional reasons to keep it.
Changes to this policy
AP Skin may update this Privacy Policy as services, booking systems, forms or business processes change. The latest version will be available through the Privacy Policy link on the website.
